Nothing's Certain At The Start (A McFly Fan Fiction)

Chapter Five

"Delilah, this is Tom Fletcher. He does vocals and guitar." 

We just stared at each other.

"H-h-hello." I finally screeched out me. 

It's him.

He's the guy from the cafe.

"Pleasure to meet you." He said in a monotone.

He looked  completely unamused.

"McFly is our main recording artists for this studio, you're going to be spending a lot of time together, so I'd get to know one another soon." He said smiling.

"I'll be in my office if you need anything, Delilah. And boys- don't give her too much trouble." He said.

"We'll try." Said Danny chuckling.

"I have use the restroom." I said politely shutting the door. 

As soon as I walked away, I could hear them having a quite loud conversation.

"I like this new girl." Danny said bluntly. 

What were they talking about?

I stood beside the door and listened, er- eavesdropped. 

"She's cute!" I heard what sounded like Dougie exclaim.

I instantaneously blushed.

"Mmhmm." Harry said in agreement.

"What about you, Tom?" Danny asked.

"I've seen better..." He said with his voice trailing off.

Of course he would. 

I was not looking forward to working with Tom. 

"Well, get used to it, butty. She's going to be here a lot." 

"Having fun eavesdropping?" Dean said smirking.

"Oh. I-I-"

"It's okay, you don't have to explain. I know that they're a bit goofy at times, but they're good boys." He said smiling at me. 

I preceded to walk back in. 

"Hi Delilah!' Dougie said waving. 

He was so precious.  

"So, i'm assuming you're an American, right?" Danny said leaning his elbow on the table. 

What was he doing?

"Yup. Born and raised." I said grinning.

"Sweet. You like London so far?"  He asked.

He sure was asking a lot of questions.

"Well, It's had some ups and downs, but I like it a lot so far." I said peering over at Tom and remembering are earlier incident. 

I could feel his eyes glaze over mine.

A piercing, deep brown. 

I actually shuttered a bit. 

"You okay?" Danny asked.

"I"m fine." I said with a half smile. 

Dougie moved closer to Danny and I.

"Uh...Delilah?" Dougie asked.

"Yes, Dougie?" I asked.

"Can I call you Del?" He asked so innocently.

There was no way I could say no to that face. 

"Of course you can!' I said laughing.

Dougie's eyes just sparkled. 

"Well, if Dougie gets to call you Del, I'm calling you Yank." Danny said chuckling.

"Yankee Doodle Dandy!" Harry said. 

"Uhm, no." I said raising my eyebrow."

"Danny, are we gonna finish writing that song idea I had?" Tom asked, interuptting our conversation.

"Sure thing, butty." Danny said. 

"You wanna join us?" Danny asked me. 

I looked over at Tom who did not look like he liked that idea. 

"Nah, I'll pass for today. I'll hang out with Dougie and Harry." I said.

Dougie's face automatically lit up. 

"Sweet!" He said. 

"Okay, catcha later, Yankee doodle." Danny said laughing.

I rolled my eyes, unamused at my new nickname. 

"What do you want to do, Del?" Dougie asked eagerly.

"I'm not sure...What do you like to do around." 

"Well, usually I'll either go play bass or guitar, or hang out with Harry." He said.

"Oh." I said. 

"Do you want to look around London?" He asked. 

The door opened and Danny walked in.

"Harry, can you come here and help us with ideas for drum fills?" Danny asked.

"Sure thing." Harry said. 

"See ya later, yank." Harry said grinning madly. 

"What about me?" Dougie pouted.

"of course, Dougie." He said winking. 

"Well, looks like it's just us." Dougie said grabbing my hand. 

"Where are you talking me?" I asked.

"You'll see." He beamed.

Thinking of Dougie's personality, we might end up anywhere.
