**Delilah**

Slowly I begin to open my eyes and a bright light immediately blinds my vision. I shade my face using my arms and a sharp, intriguing pain instantly strikes to my head. As if a lighting bolt struck through my head, sending shock waves all over my body.

I start to panic taking in my surroundings which I appear to be in a hospital, and I have no clue how I even got here. Or who brought me here.

"You're awake", his raspy voice the only thing I heard before he comes into vision, and my mouth goes dry as I stare at him not knowing how to feel.

I take in his beautiful appearance but he seems exhausted. Dark rings sit under his eyes looking like he hasn't slept in days, his ruffled appears to be longer which I have to admit suits him well. Even in his worst state he still manages to look handsome.

"Blake", I choke on a sob as millions of emotions flood my body and his body softens as he stares at me with guilt in his pure hazel eyes.

"Delilah-

"Just go Blake, I don't ever want to see you again!", I shout my vision blurring from my tears.

"Delilah you don't mean that", his voice soft laced with hurt but probably not comparable to the amount of hurt in my chest saying thses words to him out of anger.

"Do you have any idea what you put through?" I whisper yell at him as hot tears escape my eyes.

"I'm so sorry", his voice cracks taking a step towards me.

"Don't!", I shout and he stops dead in his cracks, hurt flashing through his glossy eyes.

"You promised you wouldn't leave me and that's exactly what you did!", I yell with anger, sadness, heartbreak all evident in my tiny voice.

"You know I wouldn't intentionally leave you. I love you and you know that. I know you know that", his voice cracks.

All I want to do is run up to him, wrap my arms around his neck and whisper that I love him and that everything's going to be okay. But I stay glued in position and it kills me to see him like this....so broken. Like I was for weeks without him.

My heart beats for him but I have to stand my ground. He has to know how I feel even when it hurts me to say these mean words to him.

"For weeks I've been miserable, emotionally draining myself by crying myself to sleep everynight thinking I wasn't good enough for you", my heart breaks just rethinking about all the hard nights I've been through which felt infinite. But I guess even your worst days only have 24 hours, even if it doesn't seem that way.

"I hate myself for leaving you when you needed me the most Delilah. I will never forgive myself for putting you through all the horrible things you have experienced. And I will do anything to make it up to you...anything", his eyes silently begging me to give him another chance.

"I thought you loved me", I sob and pain fills his beautiful hazel eyes as he let a tear fall down his cheek.

"Don't you do that! Don't you even dare think I never Ioved you. Don't you ever doubt my love for you ", his voice soft full of pain mirroring my expression.

"If I have known you were going to leave me, I wouldn't have fallen inlove with you in the first place", my voice betrays me by cracking as tears continue to stain my cheeks.

"Delilah please don't say those things", he begs with tears now flowing down his perfectly sculptured face.

"Loving you was not a mistake, thinking that you loved me was", the moment those words escape my lips he grabs my hands holding them tightly, yet gentle in his hold.

"Delilah I fell inlove with you because you loved me when I couldn't love myself. The day I proposed to you, was the day I spilled my heart out to you and I meant every single word about wanting to spend the rest of my life with you. It was the first time I've ever put my emotions out there, the emotions that I felt in my heart I put out to you in words. I never thought the word love existed until I stumbled upon you. I'm willing to give my heart to you over and over again Delilah, even if you had it from day one. I love you so much Delilah, I love you so much that I'm afraid it'll be illegal, because your love is like a drug that I can never escape", he says staring into my eyes. His eyes glossy bursting with emotions and I can feel every single word escaping his lips entering my soul.

Every last bit of my anger, sadness and hearbreak evaporating into thin air, only leaving pure love behind in my heart. Love, for Blake.

"I thought I'd lost you", I admit choking on a sob as I wrap my arms tightly around his neck. Inhaling his familiar scent putting my body at peace, letting my tense body melt into his hold and I feel his body do the same as we just hold each other tightly.

"You could never loose me even if you wanted to", he shoots with a chuckle lightening up the mood abit.

"I missed being like this. I missed your laugh. I missed your playful remarks. I missed being inside your hugs", I admit with a frown and he cups my face, placing a gentle kids to me forehead.

'You know I love you right?", he asks with concern as if he's afraid of my answer.

"I can feel it", I reply and he smiles placing his lips to mine. I return the gentle gesture letting my lips melt with his.

"I love you", he says sending butterflies to my stomach once again.

"I love you", his gaze softens releasing a breathe.

He stares into my brown eyes, before adverting his gaze to my forehead. He glides his thumb over my skin and I flinch slightly at the pressure and he quickly pulls back, his face emotionless.

"What if Austin comes between us again", I ask softly staring at my hands trying to stop the tears from spilling my eyes again.

"Hey, don't worry that right now. He'll never come near us again. I promise", he says placing a kiss to my forehead.

"How do you know? ", I ask and his eyes turn cold.

"I just know", he replies and my brain registers with his words.

"Is he...-"

"Yeah", he replies and I bite my lip.

"I'm so sorry", I say and he wipes my tears with his thumb.

"What happened was not in your hands and you had no control over the whole situation", he coos into my forehead.

"Why didn't you tell me he was your brother?", I ask and he ignores my gaze.

"Step-brother. And that's for another day. I'm just grateful that I made it in time before he could hurt you. If I was too late and something happened to you, I'd loose myself completely", tears fill his eyes at the part part and I squeeze his hand in mine.

"I'm here with you now and I'm perfectly safe with you ", I assure him and he smiles weakly before kissing my cheeks.

"Thought I'd might see you two love birds back at it ", Ben chuckles as he walks through the door with a two crutches and a thick bandage wrapped around his stomach.
