Chapter 11: Coffee and Daises
(A/N: This one is just a little fluffy filler chapter. Needed to pad with fluff for the bumpy road ahead, so be prepared. For the Travis/Delilah lovers, these next few chapters are dedicated to you. For all of the Robbie/Delilah lovers, just wait, more is on the way. I love all of my readers and this is all for you! This one is all Del, by the way, so R&R!!)
"Mel, I can't believe how perfect things are. It's only been a month, but it feels like a lifetime that I've known him." I couldn't stop smiling.
"Stop it, you are making me jealous. You know how long it's been since I've gotten flowers from a guy; since I was twelve, after my ballet recital, and they were a gift from my dad."
We were sitting in the living room, talking over coffee, something we had done very little of since Travis and I had gotten together, and we had been inseparable since.
"They are beautiful, aren't they?" I asked, looking at the arrangement of white and yellow daises sitting on our coffee table, a gift from Travis.
"Eh, they're kind of simple if you ask me."
"But that's why they're so perfect. They're exactly like Travis, seemingly simple, but actually very complex. He put a lot of thought into these." My gaze was transfixed, eyes moving over every flower, every pedal.
I was ripped from my trance by Melanie standing up, sighing.
"You two are lucky, just remember that." She paused. "Are you going out with us tonight, or do you have plans with Travis?" She acted like she already knew the answer and I felt horrible to prove her right.
"Sorry honey, I promise, next Friday I'll go. You can hold me to it."
Her attitude didn't change much, but she agreed and disappeared into her room.
Feeling just as depressed, I followed suit.
