i sat on youtube and just kept reloading my page until it was finally up.

i took a picture from my phone of my laptop screen and posted an insta story, go stream mess it up and under/over! 🤍

in just a few minutes i was being called in a groupchat with quinn, luke, jack, mikey, ty, trevor, john and alex.

"delilah."
"what?" i asked pretending clueless.
"what the hell did you just post?"
"what do you mean?"
"delilah, don't mess with us, you released two songs and didn't tell us."
"i did?"
"delilah!"
"ok, fine, i did. did you listen to them yet?"
"no. i'm pulling it up right now."
"which one should we listen to first?"
"doesn't matter. as long as you all stream both i do not care."
"under/over popped up first i'm doing that one."
"ok."

luke played the song on full volume and we all muted our mics as we listened to it. i was laughing when i saw all the guys reactions to the song.

there were a lot of holy shits and what the fucks and it was really entertaining to watch.

when it was over everyone unmuted and were screaming all at once.

"delilah, this is so good!"
"dude what the hell?"
"and you didn't tell us?!"
"i told you you could go somewhere with this its so good!"
"ok, ok, relax you haven't even listened to the second one yet."
"it's a music video, when the hell did you have time to do this?"
"i filmed it at school, actually, this is a set for a play theyre doing later this year."
"ok shut up i wanna listen."

when they were both done everyone streamed them on their own and we all hopped off facetime. then i got another call but from jack.

"delilah, i'm so proud of you."
"thank you. that means a lot to me."
"seriously these are so good. i really hope this works for you."
"me too, jack."
"how's school?"
"boring, stressful."
"will you drop out if this works?"
"probably. if it does work for me then do i really need to be apart of school too?"
"no. and if you do drop out you can travel to games with luke and i."
"yeah, i don't know about wanting to travel with sweaty and annoying hockey players. but i'll definitely go to some of your games even if i don't drop out."
"promise?"
"promise. ask luke, last year i went to a bunch of his games, sure i got in for free cause i went to the school but i'll always support you guys."
"you think i'm going to make you pay to go to our games? i'm giving you passes, there's no way you'll be able to afford multiple tickets."
"i wouldn't mind paying for a couple, jack."
"no, i won't let you. and don't argue with me."
"fine, i won't. but thank you that's sweet."
"what have i told you about saying thank you? you don't need to i do this stuff cause i want to."
"i know but i wouldn't hurt to say thank you every once in a while."
"delilah!"
"uh, oh."
"what?"
"connors yelling at me. what connor?" i yelled back at him.

"since when were you releasing music?!"
"since today, now be quiet i'm on the phone! i hate brothers." i groaned falling back on my bed.

"well you're a girl, that's understandable."
"yeah. i grew up with two boys, that's so annoying. at least i get to be the cool older sister and drive aurora around when she's older."
"you planning on moving back to chicago?"
"i don't know, maybe. it really all depends on where i stand career wise in a couple years. but for right now if connors here i'm not going anywhere."
"would you ever move to another state if someone asked you?"
"it depends on the person. like if luke really wanted me in new jersey and i was in the right place and had enough leeway room to pay for it then yeah. if my mom needed me home then probably, people like that."
"if i asked you to move to new jersey would you? it's just a hypothetical question, i'm not actually asking you to move to new jersey for me."
"yeah, if you needed me to."
"what would you classify as me needing you?"
"i don't know. if youre having a really bad season, or you're injured and out for a while so you just want someone there."
"ok, good to know. i'm gonna let you go to sleep i know you've been trying to get better at your sleep schedule."
"ok, goodnight jack."
"goodnight, dells."

let's just say i had a really good sleep that night.



A/N the songs are by gracie abrams, i really like her music and i think she'll go really well personality wise with this book. of course she isn't blonde but it's ok i'm using another face claim.

thank you for reading this far! let me know how soon you want jack and delilah to get together!

also i was watching the eras tour on live yesterday cause i went for the chicago show, and this was in santa clara. night two got all of the girls you loved before. taylor we have beef rn.
