      {{Delaney's POV}}

I grabbed hold of Marcel's hand, taking in a deep breath as he opened up his front door. 

"Marcel! Baby where were you earlier? I went into your room an-"

"Mum, this is Delaney."

"Oh, well hello there dear..are you here to help Marcel with some school project?"

"No mum, Delaney is my girlfriend."

I gasped, but quickly played it off as a slight cough. My grip on Marcel's hand tightening with each word he said. How could he just say that so calmly? Why did I even agree to come here?! I quickly placed a small smile on my lips, so his mum wouldn't judge me so harshly as I thought she would.

"FINALLY! Oh my lord, it is so nice to finally know Marcel has found love! Thank you dearly Darcy."

"It's Delaney" 

I looked up at Marcel, who was smirking down towards me, did we really just say that at the same time? I'm screwed. I nodded my head, the small smile still played on my lips. I felt my arm get tugged lightly. Marcel wanted me to follow him into some other part of the house. I lightened my grip on his hand, following cautiously behind him.

He lead me into their kitchen were his mum was now tying an apron around her waist, oh god he was inviting me over for supper. I cannot do this, I've officially over-stayed my welcome.

I released my grip from Marcel's hand, making his hand abruptly drop to his side, startling him.

He turned around, giving me a puzzled look, all I could do was shrug.

"I-I got a text from Chelsea, I g-got to go help her w-with our chemistry project...c-call you later?"

He smiled, nodding, and kissing my temple lightly.

"Have fun babe."

I smiled quickly, before rushing out of the house. 

I ran out onto the sidewalk, memories of my self-proposed promise flashing through my mind.

"Never, ever, no matter what, fall in love. If he leaves, you'll turn into your mum. You'll be nothing. Play, date, and heartbreak. Always for them, never for you. You're stronger than love."

..But lately, I've been feeling so much more towards Marcel, and it's scaring me..What if I've broken my promise, and I've fallen in love?
