CHAPTER 32
⋆.ೃ࿔*:･
Thanksgiving break was nearing, and Delilah could have never been more grateful for the holiday. The downside of that, classes have dragged even more longer than they had been.
Luke was increasingly becoming more busy, and his nights were filled with practices or games. She felt so lonely, and a feeling of emptiness that filled her body.
Azalea always tried to attempt being there for her best friend, but Delilah pushed her away. Along with the boys too. She hated the feeling of vulnerability that came along with long distance.
She was hurting and Luke was the only one who could heal her. And he was miles away, and all she wanted was to come back to her dorm. And curl up close to his body as his fingers stroked her back slowly.
Classes were draining her motivation to barely even get out of bed. Azalea tried her best effort to help her best friend's mental health, but she knew she was insignificant in aiding it.
So her friend resorted to Luke having a surprise visit to Umich on a weekend when their game schedule was free. Which he jumped at the opportunity to be able to have her close to him.
He failed focusing in practice of even some plays in the game. His mind thought back to what Delilah was doing, how was feeling, where was she? His behaviors got him relentlessly bullied by his teammates for being considerate of his girlfriend.
He missed her incredibly. He needed her small body in his arms while placing gentle kisses on her cheek. Or whispering reassurance in her ear as she giggled and squirmed about his breath tickling her sensitive skin.
His heart physically ached and longed for the desire of her. To be back with her, and back at the summer house.

So there she was lying in bed on a Friday afternoon as she scrolled on the endless videos of her tiktok for you page. She sighed bored out of her mind as Azalea left with Luca, and she was just lonely.
And her attitude had been so shitty lately, she was being a bitch to everyone. All because she was lonely, tired, and stressed. She was so physically and mentally exhausted that her parents began frequently checking up on her due to worries about their daughter.
She was so angry, and she wasn't a angry person. She didn't know why her agressive behavior towards her loved ones and why she treated them that way.
Hearing a knock on her door she furrowed her eyebrows as she yelled "come in!" Assuming it was either a few other of her friends or just the hockey boys.
She heard the door open to be faced with the sight of Luke. "You just let anybody in your dorm?" He asked innocently as she smiled and leapt up from her bed and into his outstretched arms.
"I missed you" he mumbled into her hair taking advantage of her enchanting perfume which has been a daily crave. "Me too" she whispered into his chest as he kissed her head as they swayed slightly back and forth.
She pulled away slightly to go up on her toes to kiss her lips. That she has oh so dearly missed these past few months. His hands cupped her cheek while hers opted to playing with his soft curls on top of his head.
Luke pulled away from the stability their lips provided and looked down to his gorgeous girlfriend looking up at him with her doe eyes. A small smile appeared on his face along with hers.
He set down his small bag on her floor as let out a sigh of contentment with him being here for her. "Can we get food?" Luke blurted out as Delilah laughed while shaking her head. "Of course" she answered and kissed him.
She intwined their fingers with each others and walked down to the Canes down the road. Per Lukes request.

As they grabbed there canes and sat down in the small restaurant Luke smiled at his girlfriend across from him sipping her doctor pepper. "So whats new?" She asked him as he laughed a bit.
"Nothing crazy" he answered taking a bite out of his chicken tenders. She nodded a bit as she knew he was going to have to leave before she knew it.
"How's classes going?" He asked as she sighed and slumped her shoulders. "Draining." Was all she replied as he frowned at his girlfriend's demeanor change.
"Im sorry" was all he said as she sighed a bit. "Its whatever. I guess" She responded as she finished her food. Luke had been long finished after being hungry from his flight.
"Wanna go back to your room?" He asked as she nodded her head quickly. He gave her a small smile as he helped her up from her seat as she latched onto his hand.
His arm wrapped around her waist as they walking down the sidewalk. The chilly November air hit them like a train as she pressed her body closer to Lukes. His arm now securely around her shoulders as his hand moved up and down.
Delilah spilled her feelings out as she felt them rising to her mouth. Not being able to be in the dark anymore. "Im so sorry Delilah" he looked to her with tears in his eyes. "Its okay Luke" She assured as they stepped into her dorm.
"I can't imagine how you felt keeping so much weight on your shoulders" he turned to her as she looked up into his comforting blue eyes. "I hate how i shut everyone out" she choked out as he felt his heart break into a million pieces.
"Im so so sorry" Luke cupped her cheeks while using his thumbs the wipe the salty tears dripping from her brown eyes. "Its so hard when your away" she admitted as his eyes squeezed shut.
"I know Li. I feel horrible" he held her close to him. "Its not your fault Luke" she assured him as he swallowed deeply. "I love you so much Li" He whispered as she smiled a bit. "I love you too Luke" she sniffled as he wiped her tears.
"Im here now. So lets enjoy it okay?" He whispered down into her ear as she pulled away with a sultry expression on her face. "Mhm" she leaned up to kiss him as he motioned her to jump. Her legs wrapped around his torso.
Their kisses were passionate and longing after having no touch for months. His lips went down to her neck as she let out a soft moan. "God i missed you" he whispered his voice coated with raspiness. She let out a shakey breath as his hands roamed her back.
"Me too" she replied back as he smirked and kissed her again. His teeth grazed past her bottom lip as she deepened their kiss. Her hands rested in his brown locks as she pulled slightly eliciting a low groan from him.
He smirked against her lips as he slowly began walking over to her bed and setting her down gently on the bed as she smiled up at him.
