Chapter 14 You Got Me Down On My Knees
Stella
It was about time to get the guys some new outfits so I headed to their house with tons of clothes.
Maybe I could get some coffee with Joe later or something. Who knew?
Joe and Kevin opened the door and helped to get all my bags upstairs.
"Okay guys, where is Nick? I told you that I need all three of you today. I don't have enough time to do that three times." I was pretty pissed but Joe and Kevin seemed to know something I had no idea about.
"What?"
"Err Stella, he seems to be pretty down today. He didn't talk to us the entire day and when we asked him why he said that we could talk about this when we're home but... he didn't come home after school." Joe explained.
"Oh, err, okay. Did you try to call him?"
"Yep but he didn't answer his phone. I'm sure that he just needs some time before he can talk to us. That's all." Kevin replied.
How the hell could they stay that cool?
"Well don't you think that we should start to...?"
I wasn't able to finish that question because Nick walked in.
"Hey, I'm so sorry, Delilah and I had a lot to talk about."
I think we all had the same confused looks on our face when he said that.
"Oh my God, you didn't...."
"Gosh, no! She told me that we can't date anymore because her management wants her to date a 'ordinary high school jerk' and her mom won't let her fire them so we decided to keep our relationship a secret. So I guess you understand that there was loads to talk about"
"Oh, Nick I'm so sorry for you."
"It's okay Stella. I'm sure that we'll get through this until we find a better way."
Trying on all the outfits worked pretty good because no one wanted to complain about anything in front of Nick. Great. Joe and I would definitely have enough time to get some coffee.
Kevin was on the phone with Macy and Nick wanted to write a song, what a surprise.
Joe and I wanted to take it real slow that means no kissing, not even holding hands, nothing. We just wanted to get to know each other again like we'd just met a few days ago. So all we actually did was talking. Talking about everything that was going on around us.
"Joe, isn't it just horrible what those assholes do to Nelilah? They are so meant to be together but they're always being torn apart by some idiots."
"I know! Everybody's always trying to destroy what I worked hard for!"
I rolled my eyes: "Joe, you're annoying. Why did I give you a second chance again?"
"Because you can't live without me by your side. Just admit it."
"Watch out, Mister Lucas. I can easily break up with you again.... just saying." I smiled.
"Oh no, please don't! See, you got me down on my knees! I'm begging you!"
"Joe, you just can't be serious, can you?"
"Nope, but I got no clue why. If you want to know more about that, you better ask my momma."
Now that made me laugh.
"Hold on, Joe. Delilah is also a singer, right?"
"Err, yeah. Why are you asking?"
"Because I think I've just found a way how Nelilah can stay together without hiding everything all the time."
