Coming Home to You TWENTY
DELILAHMy head is pounding and my mouth and throat are parched. I try to move my arm to rub my temple, but I'm unable to lift my limbs. I open my eyes and see a room that I don't recognize. I look around and notice Tessa is in the bed next to me, but her arms are also restrained behind her back attached to the headboard as well. The room is dark, but I don't think I see anyone else in here. "Tess." I hiss in her direction. "Tess. Wake up." She opens her eyes looking around frantically just as confused as I am. "What happened? Where are we?" She whispers back at me while we try to fight the restraints."I have no idea. The last thing I remember is dancing with you and that girl Julie bumped into you spilling your drink all over us. We went to the bathroom to clean it up and then I can't remember anything else." I explain, looking around. "I see our phones on the counter. We need to try to get our hands free." I look over at Tessa's hands. "They used zip ties. We just need to keep wig

LIAMGetting into the SUV without Lilah was easily one of the hardest things I've ever done in my life. I had promised her dad that I'd always protect her, and her being kidnapped while I'm only 15 feet away, makes me feel like I failed them both. Thank God they were able to save themselves. Tess let it slip to Ty that she and Dels had been taking boxing and self defense lessons since Delilah's mom passed away. Apparently, my tiny wife knows how to defend herself. Our opening performance at the game went on without a hitch. Delilah was waiting for me in the dressing room when the show was over just as she promised she would be. We barely wait for the game to end before heading straight to the airport. We had originally planned on staying another night in Vegas, but after everything that's happened we are both ready to get home. The media frenzy surrounding her kidnapping has been insane. Thankfully, Andrew had a press conference and answered as many questions as possible so hopefully

DELILAHWe officially have been living in our new house for six weeks. Liam has been super hands on with helping pick out everything we need to start our life together. We finally have furniture, which is exciting since we slept on a pallet for two weeks straight. We made the best of it though, with late night pillow fights, and building a fort out of sheets like we used to do when we were kids. When we aren't spending our time getting busy in every room of our new home, we are finishing up our senior year online. It's been difficult to get Liam to concentrate on his studies if I'm in the room, so I've been getting most of my work done on our balcony overlooking the ocean while he works in the office. I can't complain. I leave tomorrow for London with Tessa. She has been helping as my personal assistant since my modeling career has been skyrocketing. We've been darting off across the country nearly every weekend for different gigs and runway shows. This London show is for fashion wee

LIAMWe've been in Tokyo for three days now. Of course Dels has called at least once a day to video chat, but I still miss her like crazy. I'm not sure how I managed to go on tour without her last year. I realize now that I didn't manage well. I drowned myself in alcohol and women I cared nothing for. I'm done with all of that now though. I'm not sure how I managed to get her back, but I'm not messing it up this time around. We just finished another sold out concert and will travel overnight to the next stadium on the Asian tour. Dozens of fans were lined up outside the bus just as expected, hoping to catch one of the guys' eyes tonight. Luke and Noah brought this raven haired girl and her three friends on board with them. I eye him and shake my head miffed. "What are you doing? You better keep them away from me. I swear Luke. I am not ending up on any tabloids tomorrow. Dels will kill me." Or leave me forever, I think to myself. That would be even worse. "Relax Liam. It's not lik

DELILAH"Liam's Baby Mama Drama" is the headline that I'm greeted with all over my social media after my photo shoot with Ferdinand finishes this afternoon. The photo attached shows a very pregnant, very gorgeous model that I remember seeing in several American Eagle ads last year. Tessa sits on the bed next to me scrolling through her phone. "Hey, you haven't moved from that spot in three hours. Do you want to talk about it?" She hands me a bottle of water while waiting for my response."Do you think it's true?" I whisper. "What am I saying? Of course it's true. Look at her. She's gorgeous. I remember seeing her in that shoot with him a while back. Does the time line add up?" I quickly do the math in my head. "Shit, it does.""It doesn't change anything even if it is true Lilah. You love him and you're married now, remember? Even if she is having his kid, he's with you and she was just a fling. He had lots of those and you already knew that before you got back together."I try to s

TESSA"Lilah, let's go. You don't want to do anything rash. There are cameras everywhere tonight. Liam will definitely see this." I try to warn her, but it does no good. Ferdinand has been pumping her with drinks all night. She's turned into a vengeful drunk and this version of her gives no fucks about what Liam thinks. Delilah laughs bitterly, rolling her eyes, "Okay mom. Why should I care what Liam thinks? When has Liam cared about what I may think? Hmmm? I mean, he got another girl pregnant for crying out loud.""That was before you were together Lilah. Before you were married. If it's even true." I try to reason with her, but she's stubborn when she's sober, and a completely pigheaded drunk. "Details, details." She says, wrapping her arms around Ferdinand and threading her fingers in his hair. "We're just having a little fun dancing. It's not like we're having sex in the bathroom or something. Well, not yet anyway." She laughs and Ferdinand's eyes go wide with surprise. This is

DELILAH "Where are we headed tonight?" I ask Tess after we finish up a shoot for Victoria's Secret. "Are you sure you want to go out again?" She sighs. "I'm pooped. Can't we get takeout and hang out at the hotel tonight instead? We've gone out every night for the past 7 days. My liver needs a night off to recuperate." I roll my eyes. "Are you asking for us to stay home or is Tyler? Don't think I haven't heard you telling him what I've been up to." I scold. "I never got a play by play when Liam was sleeping his way across America." Tess looks away guiltily. "Tyler was worried about him okay? He's not been sleeping. He looks like shit. And he's not eating very well. He loves you Lilah, it's been a week. Call him."I purse my lips. "Whose side are you on anyway?" She's starting to make me feel guilty. Lord knows everyone would be judging me if it were the other way around. I can see the headlines now "Gold-digger Delilah Jones tricks Liam into Marriage". I roll my eyes at the double

LIAM"How much longer until we land?" I ask Tyler impatiently."Thirty minutes. You know this could completely blow up in your face right?" "I thought you said that they were staying in tonight? Why does this say she was just spotted with Taylor Swift?" I'm so frustrated, keeping tabs on my wife has been quite difficult lately with her refusing to talk to me. I just want to know that she's safe. "Tess told me they were staying in. I don't think she'd lie to me. Do you really think they were able to fool their entire security detail? Maybe those photos are old." He's clearly in denial."Have you met Delilah?" I ask him, raising my brows."Well, why would Tess lie to me?" Oh I see, he thinks Tess is wrapped around his finger. I knew more was going on between them than he let on."Because Dels told her to. You know Tessa is going to side with her, especially if it involves hanging out with Taylor Swift." I run my hands through my hair for the thousandth time today. "I need this plane to

DELILAH I’m not sure of the exact moment that I realized I wanted Liam Anderson to be mine forever. It could have been on the beach when we would collect shells and build castles when I was 6. I remember thinking that his smile reminded me of sunshine and I couldn’t control the butterflies when he would unleash it on me.Or it could’ve been the times we snuck out in fifth grade to catch lightning bugs in jars or when we’d sneak some of moms freshly baked cookies before dinner. It could’ve been any of the numerous times he had my back if the other kids at school teased me. It could’ve been the time in middle school when we held hands or when he saved me from having to do 7 minutes in heaven with Gavin in 7th grade. Liam has always been such a large part of my life. Staring at him up on stage now, I try to think of what my life would be like in ten years if Liam wasn’t in it. A tear slips down my cheek as I realize that’s not the life that I want. The guys have just finished playing th

LIAM "Are you two officially back together?" A reporter chirps shoving her recorder in our faces after we just finished filming a segment for the live show. I look at Delilah, wondering what she's thinking as I reply, "We're still working things out." Dels frowns at my response as the reporter steps in closer. "That's too bad. So who will you be kissing at midnight then?" She asks winking at me and stepping in closer. "I'm free." She mentions, raising a brow at Dels. I'm not sure if that comment was meant for me or Delilah at this point, but I'm not taking any chances. I take Delilah's hand and thread my fingers with hers before quickly responding. "I can say with certainty that if I'm not kissing this amazing girl at midnight, I most definitely will not be kissing anyone else." I look hopefully into those honey brown eyes that I love so much to see if she feels the same way. "I don't know," she teases coyly, but her eyes are telling me that she agrees with me completely.

DELILAH I haven't heard from Liam at all today, which is strange considering he was all over me last night. I've been replaying last nights events in my mind and I don't remember anything happening that would have made him upset with me. It's New Years Eve and we are supposed to be hosting a party together in a few hours. I'm hoping it won't be awkward but at this point I'm pretty annoyed that he hasn't even attempted to talk to me or even sent me a text after sneaking out of my room early this morning. He must have changed his mind.After spending an hour with hair and makeup Tessa and I are all dolled up and ready for tonight's shenanigans. The event is being held on top of a fancy hotel in Time's Square. The place is decked out in gold trimmed everything, looking extremely extravagant and festive. When we arrive the guys are already testing out their microphones and chatting with the camera crew. Liam notices me first nodding in my direction, but makes no attempt to talk to me. T

DELILAH A knock on the door wakes me from my drunken slumber. I roll over and notice that Liam's not in the bed anymore and all of his belongings are gone. Strange. I could have swore he stayed the night. Why would he sneak out in the middle of the night without saying bye? Did I do something to upset him? I climb out of bed and make my way to the door cracking it open to see who is knocking."Hey Tessa. Why are you waking me up so early?" I grumble. "It's not early Lilah. It's almost noon. You need to shower and get ready to host the New Years Eve party." She smiles at me, before glancing around the room in confusion. "Is Liam not here? I thought you two made up last night." "I guess he didn't come back with me last night. I'm not sure, things are a bit hazy." "Huh, well anyway you need to get showered and then we can grab some brunch before we head over to the party." I nod and head to the bathroom to get ready. Maybe a hot shower will help me remember last nights events a bit b

DELILAHWe sat at the bar for hours tossing back shots and drinking together before I finally got the nerve to ask him on our way to my room. "Was that little stunt you pulled tonight completely necessary?" I cock my eyebrow and pucker my lips as I wait to hear him explain his actions earlier. "I wasn't running off.""I'm sorry babe. You weren't where you said you'd be and I saw you by the exit and I don't know. I just panicked." His words slurring a bit as he runs his hand through his hair and then takes my hand in his and squeezes. "I thought you were taking off and I reacted before thinking. I'm sorry."I shake my head at him playfully. "You owe me big time, calling me out in front of all those fans and celebrities." I continue walking down the lit corridor until we arrive at my room. I turn toward him to see him awkwardly standing with his hands in his pockets, unsure of his next move. Smiling I reach for my room key in my bag and take it out to tap it against the lock. "Well, thi

LIAM The huge rush that I get when I walk out onto the stage for a show never gets old. My adrenaline is pumping when I look out into the crowd and it's only heightened when I feel her brown eyes on me from the side of the stage. I turn my head raking my eyes over her one last time before I have to divert my attention to the crowd of people screaming our names in front of me. I'll have her screaming my name later. Damn, she looks so good tonight, I could eat her. There is actually nothing that I'd rather do at the moment. I feel myself getting more excited than I need to be in front of all these people and give her a wink before forcing myself to pull my eyes off her. "Hey New York! Are you ready to party? How about we play you some tunes?" My questions are immediately answered with cheers, whistling, and camera flashes as I put the microphone back into the stand and swing my guitar around to begin playing. "Alright then. My boys are a bit hungover from last night, so let's show the

DELILAH Before I realize it, Liam has me pinned between his hard body and the bar. His lips just inches away from mine. "What if I don't want you to kiss me?" I ask coyly glancing from his hazel eyes back to his soft lips. I so want him to kiss me right now. My heart is pounding in my chest and I wonder if he can tell just how badly I want it.Liam's breath hitches as he leans in, "Dels," he whispers, his voice husky. My knees feel shaky and I'm pretty sure that if it weren't for the bar behind me, I'd be a puddle of mush on the floor by now. His lips barely graze mine and as I lean in to close the distance he pulls back, his eyes full of mischief. My jaw drops and I stare at him in disbelief. I can barely form a coherent sentence. "Wha... Why did you pull away?" I manage to mutter as he eyes me amused."You said you didn't want me to kiss you. I was just following orders." He places his hands on my hips, his fingers caressing the exposed part of my back where my dress dips down low.

LIAM"Are you sure she's coming tonight?" I ask Ty for the hundredth time impatiently tapping my foot on the tile floor.He nods, a sympathetic smile on his face. "Tessa said they'd be here. You know how they are. They are probably still getting ready. You should have a drink and relax. You're not doing yourself any favors getting all wound up like this."I roll my eyes at him, "Easy for you to say. You're not the one in love with someone who's constantly running away from you. I need some kind of tracking device for her." I joke and Ty raises his brows at me questioningly. "I'm not sure that joke would go over well." He states glancing around the room. These celebrity parties are always well attended and tonight is no different. Dozens of actors, musicians, and celebrities mingling together to bring in the New Year. "Don't look now, but they just walked in." He whispers his eyes motioning behind me. Of course I do exactly what he says not to do and my eyes instantly lock with her go

DELILAH "Are you sure you don't want to go to the Stones shoot today?" Tessa asks me hesitantly for the fifth time in an hour. "Of course I'm sure. That would be so incredibly awkward. We both know what kind of questions they would ask and we both know what kind of photos they are after. I can't even manage to send him a text to apologize. There's no way I'd make it through the interview." I explain again. Tessa frowns, "You should just talk to him Lilah. You're both suffering and you don't have to be. You know he will forgive you.""You don't understand." She keeps pressuring me to try to talk to him, but I was such a bitch that night. I didn't even give him a chance to explain. He's better off without me. I'm sure he's found someone to distract himself with by now anyway. I check my phone again and there's a message from my dad, but still no word from him. He must be over my bullshit. He hasn't even tried to call or text me since the party on Christmas Eve. I can't really blame
