Coming Home to You TWELVE
LIAMIt's finally Friday, the last day of our first week of senior year. Technically, senior year started last week, but we were busy ruining my love life in LA. I'm sitting in the back of our calculus class with Tyler. I know Delilah can feel me staring at her, I saw her tense up when we walked in, but she wouldn't even look in my direction. It's been like this since Tuesday. It reminds me of this one time in fifth grade when she ignored me for a week straight. Of course she's been in every one of my classes, torturing me with her presence, as if taking up space permanently in my mind wasn't enough. Ty nudges my arm as we're walking out the doors to get lunch at the coffee place across the street, "Hey man, isn't that the guy from her beach trip photos?" I look to the left where sure enough the "yummy mystery man" himself is waiting against a blacked out Expedition."Yep." I confirm while wishing I had laser vision so I can zap his ass back to wherever it is he came from. "I though

LIAM Entranced is putting it mildly. Enamored maybe? Captivated. Engorged. All of those words could easily describe the state I’m in after checking out social media this morning and seeing photos of Delilah everywhere. Apparently she decided to get back into modeling and holy hell it just had to be for a swimsuit designer. She's gorgeous, curves in all the right places, and I know I'm not the only guy in school who has been checking out the photos repeatedly today. From the drool visible on Jeremiah’s chin, some have given up any pretense that they’re paying attention to the teacher today.I have to admit, I was surprised to see that she's modeling again. She quit suddenly after her mom passed away a few years ago. She said something about it being too hard with missing her mom. I'm proud of her for trying again. She's an incredibly talented model, even if it kills me to have every guy at our school drooling over her body.Tonight, my plan was to come to this party for a distraction f

DELILAHThis is what happens when I put myself out there. I tried to seduce Liam and he actually turned me down, again. You'd think by now I would learn my lesson. Liam, the guy who has probably slept with hundreds of girls, doesn't want to sleep with me. I just don’t see where I went wrong.I am so mortified right now. Tess and I are currently hanging out in her hot tub with Noah and Luke. Tess is showing me hilarious cat videos on youtube to make me feel better. Around us people have started to head home, the party quickly winding down. I see a flash from the bushes, but I write it off as a coincidence. No new photos of me have surfaced in at least a month, at least none that I wasn't paid to be in. My swimsuit fashion campaign came out today and it's received a lot of positive feedback. I'm so engrossed in this one video of a cat sneak attacking his owner that I don't even notice Liam getting into the water next to me. That is, until I hear his sultry voice in my ear. "I'll do it.
Coming Home to You FIFTEEN
LIAM I hear the front door open downstairs and slowly start to wake up from my dream. There's a warm soft body curled up in my arms and everything that happened last night comes back to me. Delilah is still here lying in my arms, head nuzzled between my chest and my neck. Then I remember that someone is in my house. "Liam, are you up honey? We're home early, I thought I could make you breakfast. Oh my." My mom opens my door, which I didn't think I needed to lock, since no one else was supposed to be home this week. I pull the blanket up over Delilah as she wakes up looking confused and embarrassed. My mom being the nosy person that she is, decides to come in instead of closing the door like any normal mortified parent would. "Liam, I thought we talked about this. Just because you're in a band doesn't mean you need to be a man whore. I thought you were going to straighten up. Who's this with you? What about Delilah? I thought you were going to try to make things work with her?" M

DELILAHThree days later and I find myself in the departure terminal at Charleston International Airport, getting ready to go through security with my dad. The guys are here somewhere but we decided it'd be best if we didn't arrive together, to avoid any unnecessary articles showing up on the gossip columns today. Although Shelly says that any press is good press, I'm still not ready to admit my relationship status to myself, let alone the world. Liam has been quite persistent on the topic lately. I don't see what the problem is though, we are together in everything except labeling it, so really to quote his mom, "it's just semantics." I don't see the need to go messing with something that's working fine just as it is already. I know it's frustrating for him, but our not having the label that he wants is kind of his fault in the first place.I follow my dad through the security queue and pick up my backpack. We have a test next week and I am going to make the boys study a bit while we

DELILAHWe're exiting the airport, hand in hand when the cameras begin flashing. I knew this was coming but even still it can be unnerving. The reporters begin yelling for our attention and then one of them notices the ring. "Delilah, is that an engagement ring on your finger?" "Liam, when's the big day?" "Will you stop for a picture?"I just look at Liam and smile. He's also smiling from ear to ear when he slips into the vehicle next to me. "How long before our phones start dinging?" I ask him. He laughs, "hmm maybe fifteen minutes, if we're lucky." He says chuckling. "I bet we don't even get to the hotel." Tyler adds just as the notifications begin. I glance at the posts on my phone, "Wedding Bells in the air? Football Princess spotted with engagement ring.""I'm still the best man right?" Ty questions while gently punching Liam in the shoulder. "Of course man. Somebody has to listen to me whine while I wait for Delilah to show up at the altar." We pull up to the hotel and I

LIAM The next morning, I woke up beside my beautiful wife who was still sleeping soundly. We both decided to turn our phones off completely last night, already knowing there would no doubt be tons of leaked photos and articles about us today, but those won't matter anymore. Not really anyway. Delilah is officially mine now and I am hers forever.There's a soft knock at the door and I pry myself from my bride, throwing on a pair of sweatpants to see who it is. Room service is outside with hot plates of eggs and bacon, and bowls of fresh fruit and oatmeal. I thank the hotel staff and take the tray inside to wake up Dels with breakfast in bed. It's a little later than I expected, which doesn't leave much time before her photo shoot today. I climb back onto the bed and nuzzle her awake. "Dels, they dropped off our breakfast. We need to eat and get going soon so you won't miss your photo shoot." She grunts, rolling onto her back and leaving me with a very tempting view. She still loves t

LIAM We just arrived at the hottest club in Vegas. Tonight we're celebrating out on the town with our friends again. The last two days seem surreal as I lead my new wife into the flashing lights and thumping music. I spot Tyler in the VIP section and wrap my arm around Dels, leading her that way. She looks like a goddess tonight, her dark hair cascading over her bare shoulders. She's wearing this strapless gold number that hugs her curves perfectly, which makes me want to hug her curves even more than I already do. People are watching us more than they usually do. I'm sure it has to do with our faces being plastered all over the internet today. I hold her a bit closer. Most of the articles were predictable, "Liam Anderson's Secret Wedding with Bikini Model Delilah Jones." A few however, posted speculations of a rushed wedding, claiming it was necessary because Lilah was pregnant and had somehow trapped me and that it'd never last. I know those articles frustrated her, but time will
