Delilah's POV
It's been 5 days since I found out I had cancer and yet I still don't have the guts to tell anyone, I just don't want my problems put on someone else's shoulders as well as mine, it's not fair on them, it's not their problem.
"He moves on fast." I spoke, motioning to Charlie who had his arm around another girl.
"Does it not bother you?" Jazmine asked surprised.
"Not really, there was nothing special there, just a holiday fling." I admitted.
"Oh, it looked like he liked you."
"Hunny, he probably looks at every girl like that who steps on this beach."
"Oh right." She replied thinking deeply. "Have you heard from the boys recently?" She sparked up again with a different subject matter.
"Well Louis text me yesterday to tell me he was about to wrestle a kangaroo, I'm not quite sure he understands the fact that Australians don't ride kangaroos everywhere or keep them as pets."
"I like Louis, I wish I had a best friend like that."
"You'll find a best friend eventually, I didn't have one for years and then he just came, just sprang up out of the blue." I joked.
"Along with your super-hot boyfriend." She grinned.
"Ah, ex-boyfriend." I corrected.
"I wish they could have stayed in our hotel longer." She sighed.
"They can't stay places very long, the fans find them and soon crowds gather and then the police, it's very hectic. I would know." I beamed.
"What's it like? Having someone shove a camera in your face?"
"I hated it, it wasn't just the camera, it was the clothes tugging and the hair pulling, it hurts." I admitted, just thinking back to the amount of times I've had my hair pulled made me wince at the pain.
"Oh, I've always wanted to be famous though."
"Maybe one day." I smiled at her. I propped up on my elbows to see a storming blonde heading our way. "What's up with you?" I asked as she sat down kicking the sand angrily.
"I want to go home." She replied in a huff.
"Okay..." I trailed off unsure of what to say or do next.
"I miss my friends." She repeated in the same tone.
"Is that it?" I asked sarcastically.
"And I'm fed up off you." She snarled.
"I'm deeply offended by that comment Holly, and I thought we were best friends, screw our handshake then!" I shouted sarcastically watching her narrow her eyes at me.
"Take me home!" She growled.
"Alright, don't turn into a werewolf on me." I joked causing Jazmine and Veronica to snicker behind me. "Do you guys want to go home?" I asked turning around.
"I don't mind." Veronica smiled.
"I guess I do." Jazmine uncertainly smiled.
"I'll see what I can do." I replied standing up and brushing the sand up off me. "Last swim in the sea anyone?" I grinned before running off towards the sparkling ocean. I somehow managed to trip over, on sand, but was still the first one into the water. I dived headfirst into the somewhat warm water and resurfaced breathing out like a whale. "Holly, we're going home tomorrow, your hair doesn't matter anymore, just put it under once." I said wading into shallower waters where Holly was paddling, refusing to let her bleached hair become contaminated with the salt water.
"Won't it go like straw?"
"You already bleach it, it can't get much worse."
"I'm gonna do as you say just once, don't get used to it." She replied swimming out to sea.
"Don't worry, I won't." I muttered.
"Did you get tickets?" Jazmine asked drying her hair off as she walked into my bedroom.
"Yeah, we need to leave by 8 tomorrow morning." I smiled.
"You hear that Holly? We leave at 8, so if you get up at about 4 you might be ready by the time we leave!" Jazmine shouted into the other room, I subtly laughed at her sly comment and turned my attention back to my laptop. "Whatcha doing?" She asked sitting next to me.
"Just checking twitter, tumblr, youtube, that sort of boring stuff."
"Do you have loads of followers on twitter or is it private?" She asked interested in my screen.
"Uh.."
"Woah, you're not even famous and you have over a hundred thousand followers."
"I guess people like what I tweet." I smiled.
"Could you follow me?"
"Sure, what's your twitter name?"
"Um, it's sort of embarrassing." She replied shyly.
"It can't be that bad."
"Obssessedwith1D" She replied hiding her head in her hands.
"That's not bad, I've seen worse." I grinned nudging her.
"You were at the hospital the other day?" She asked reading over my tweets.
"Uh...yeah." I answered trying to kill the conversation.
"Why?"
"Just a check-up." I muttered.
"Were you on the maternity ward?"
"No, what gave you that idea?" I asked surprised.
"You're reading a child's book." She smirked.
"Shut up, Dr Seuss is a genius." I laughed.
"If you say so." She laughed back. "So you're not pregnant?"
"Most definitely not!" I defended.
"Aww, I wanted to be an auntie." She grinned.
"I wouldn't let you anywhere near my baby and you wouldn't be its auntie." I joked.
"Rude." She replied acting shocked.
"Go to bed." I laughed pushing her off her chair. She gasped at my sudden movement and walked out the room laughing.
"What about this one?" I sighed handing another magazine to Holly as we waited in the departure lounge.
"Nooo, I've read it." She whined.
"You've read them all." I replied giving up.
"I haven't read your magazine."
"That's because it's Kerrang, it doesn't have celeb gossip in, it has actual bands." I muttered rolling my eyes.
"Let me read it." She demanded.
"How about no." I grinned.
"I hate you." She huffed walking off.
"The feeling is mutual." I replied following her. "Why don't you get a book?"
"A book?"
"Yeah, it's like a magazine, the stuff in it isn't real but it has more pages." I joked.
"You're so annoying, I'm not surprised Harry gave you the boot."
"How many more times are you going to bring that up? It's getting old." I sighed. "You better hurry up and choose something, they just announced our flight." I added walking off, waiting for her to follow.
"Mum, I'm home!" I shouted through the house, dragging my luggage with me. She suddenly appeared in the hallway and gripped her arms around me, barely letting me breathe. "Nice to see you too." I choked out.
"Did you have a safe flight?"
"Yeah, other than the massive dragon, which ate one of the wings as we flew over China." I replied sarcastically.
"You never change."
"I should hope not." I grinned.
"You have another letter from the hospital, you've got an appointment tomorrow."
"I've just got home, will you stop shoving it on my face." I replied annoyed, I released myself from her grasp and trudged upstairs.
"Delilah!" She called after me.
"Just give me some space!" I shouted back before slamming my door shut. Is there no such thing as privacy anymore? I dropped dead on my bed, feeling annoyed at the world, before I knew it jetlag was kicking me in the face and I began to snooze off.
