Delaney's POV

I am currently adorned in a cropped white collared shirt that is covered by a sky blue knitted vest, a white pleated skirt that stops around the middle of my thighs, and a thick matching white headband that is resting in my straightened hair.

I finish tying my white tennis shoes just as Sean strolls out of the bathroom in nothing but his plaid boxers.

At this point I am used to this.

I notice the blonde haired boy thoroughly checking me out through the corner of my eye.

"Where are you going?" He rasps out due to him just waking up

I pause as soon as I finish tying my shoe.

"I told you last night that Nicole wants to meet with me at nine" I tell him

He seemed to be listening to me last night.

I guess it was just an act.

The blonde continues to give me a confused facial expression.

Oh my god.

He really was not listening to me.

I sigh and stand up from our bed, not in the mood to rehash our entire conversation to him.

"Refrain from hurting yourself," I sigh out

I begin to make my way over towards my vanity.

"She more than likely wants to talk to me about the movie" I tell him

I go to pick up one of my necklaces only to freeze in my spot when the bedroom is suddenly filled with Sean's loud groan.

I inevitably spin around to face the dramatic boy.

"You're always gone nowadays" he practically whines

My boyfriend takes a few steps forward before plopping down on my bed.

I tighten my jaw at his statement, holding back an angry rant.

"I am not 'always gone', Sean," I inform him

"I have been in this apartment for the last month studying and memorizing my script," I continue

"You could have came into the living room and helped me study, you could have even just sat there silently! Instead you chose to stay in our bedroom the entire time!" My voice progressively becomes louder due to frustration

"If you really want to spend time with me then you would make it happen" I finish

I take in a deep breath of air to calm myself before clasping my necklace around my neck.

Sean is completely silent as I do this.

I chalk this up to him thinking of an excuse, or rather an answer in his book.
