Chapter 24:
Hanna's P.O.V:
On the way home from the studio I called past Emily's house. Delilah was asleep so I kept her in her carrier. I knocked on the door and was greeted by a sobbing Emily. "Em, what's happened? Are you okay?" I said, feeling concerned for my best friend. She didn't say anything, but headed upstairs to her bedroom.
I shut the door behind me and followed her.I placed Lilah's carrier on the carpet floor and sat next to Emily on the bed "Emily, please tell me what's wrong?" "Paige and I" she stuttered, "we broke up.. last night." My heart broke. Paige was the first girl Em had let her self fall for since she lost Maya. "Oh Emily, I'm so sorry. Do you want to talk about it?" I said, pulling her in for a hug. Emily took a moment to calm down, "she thinks I have feelings for Samara." "And do you?" "I don't know.." Emily said breaking down into tears again. "I love you, Em. I'm always here to talk. And you were pretty drunk last night, we all were. Maybe you should try talking to Paige." "Thanks Han,but I think it's really over" she sniffled.
At that moment Delilah started to cry. "Feeding time." I said, standing up to take her out of her carrier. I walked back over to Emily's bed and propped myself up with some pillows, I un-clipped my bra and held Delilah in my left arm, "you don't mind do you?" I asked Emily, "nothing I haven't seen before." Emily half laughed, wiping the remnants of her tears from her cheek. I allowed Delilah to latch on and she calmed down immediately. She was a little piggy like her dad. Which made me so proud because of how sick she was when she was born. "Can you believe that Delilah is a month old tomorrow?" I said, looking down at my baby. "It's going way too fast." Emily said, "I think watching you in labor put me off having kids" she teased.
I was glad that Emily had calmed down. "Hey, do you want to spend the night at the loft with Delilah and I? Caleb is working a night shift at the apple store, something about updating all the software. We can have a movie night?" I suggested, "I dunno Han." Em said, "you shouldn't be alone tonight. I owe you anyway, you looked after me when Caleb and I broke up after A ran his mum off the road" I insisted "Alright, I'll go pack a bag." She said in defeat.
When we got back to the loft, I noticed that Delilah had a fever. I gave her a cool bath, some infants ibuprofen, and set her to bed early. "I love you princess." I whispered as i laid her into the crib. I grabbed a bowl of popcorn on my way past the kitchen and set to work picking a movie with Emily. We decided a romance movie was out of the question, So settled on Easy A.
"Okay, is it just me, or do all of the red A's in this movie make you anxious too?" I laughed, "Oh my god, i was thinking that too!" Emily nodded enthusiastically, and we both laughed at the irony of the situation. "Hanna?" Em said, i nodded slightly not taking my eyes off the screen, " Thank you, for keeping me company tonight."she said softly" It's my pleasure. Now shut up, the sexy music number is about to come on" I laughed.
Delilah woke up for a feed about an hour into the movie, but thankfully her fever had come down. "Han," Em said, "yeah?" I asked. "I'm really proud of you. We all are." she smiled, I couldn't help but to grin like an idiot. "That means a lot. I'm proud of you too. We've all been through a lot." Emily nodded. "I'm ready for bed, Lilah will be up again in a few hours. You coming?" I yawned, and Emily nodded. I checked on my daughter who was soundly sleeping in the crib next to my bed, before crawling in to bed and falling asleep immediately.
I woke up the next morning to the smell of pancakes. I rolled over to find that Lilah wasn't in her crib. When I walked into the living room Emily was cooking breakfast and Caleb was playing with Delilah while watching tv. "Good morning beautiful" Caleb smiled, I walked over to him and kissed him softly "Morning sexy" I whispered, and I sat on his lap slowly, making sure not to squash Delilah. "Em, you didn't have to cook us pancakes!" I insisted, "I wanted to." She smiled. "Well thanks then" I smirked, as she handed me a plate of banana pancakes with hersheys syrup on them, my favorite.
"I've got to get going to school" Emily announced. I sighed, as much as I hated to admit it.. I missed school, well the social side of it anyway. "Have a good day. See you at the grille tonight, get ready for some serious wedding planning." I laughed and Emily rolled her eyes and waved goodbye. "What's your plans for today?" I asked Caleb, "spending the day on the couch with my girls." He replied "Sounds perfect to me, fiance" I said, emphasizing the word fiance.
A/N: SORRY paily fans. Please don't hate me! I've never really liked Paige, but that's just my opinion, it is my story after all haha.
