delilah:
what do you need to tell me about clay?

george:
he has been seeing someone.

nick:
wait what?

george glares at nick.

nick:
oh yeah! i forgot about her.

clay looks so confused. what is going on? he stays silent, not talking. has he been seeing another girl and he hasn't told me? surely george and nick wouldn't lie to me, right?

nick:
yeah she is super pretty, if he wasn't dating her i would be.

george:
maybe you and clay could go on a double date? that would be fun.

delilah:
oh yeah, maybe.
(nervously laughs)

nick:
what do you think clay?

clay:
oh yeah that would be fun, i should call her up about it.

is he being serious right now? is he actually seeing another girl? what the fuck is going on. i got to get out of here.

delilah:
hey guys, it is getting late. i think i should head home.

george:
yeah i should head home too.

nick:
yeah it is getting late. i drove george here so we are going to head out.

they get up to leave, and i get up to leave with them.

clay:
lilah hold on!.... uh drista wants to see you before she goes back home.

george:
do you want us to wait for you?

delilah:
no it is okay, bye guys. see you later!

nick:
bye delilah, bye clay!

clay:
bye guys.

once they walk out the door, i walk up to clay and just stare at him. i think he can sense i am mad, because he looks hurt. my eyes start to water, he grabs my hand. i pull my hand away from him.

clay:
okay i know this might not look good for me right now.

delilah:
no clay, it does not look fucking good.

clay:
you have to trust me when i say i am not seeing another girl.

delilah:
clay i have trusted you my whole life, and now i am not sure if i should.

clay:
no lilah, please listen. i don't know why they said that about me. i am only seeing you.

delilah:
well you didn't shut them down when they said that! you just let them go with it!

clay:
please lilah, stop yelling. i need you trust me lilah.

delilah:
clay... i just can't right now.

i start walking for the door but he grabs my hand and turns me to face him.

clay:
lilah please, don't leave like this. i-i love you.
