Delilah stopped short not expecting Matt to turn so quickly. She didn't know what to do, what to say. She froze at his words. She wanted to go with him. Be some sort of help. The last place Delilah wanted to be was back at her flat with nothing to do but fret over how her boyfriend was dealing with the fact that he may know where his brother was.
It stung that his first thought was do drop her off and leave her behind while he dealt with it on his own. That he didn't want her there to help. Though what could she really do? Sighing slightly, Delilah reached up to cup his face gently. "Breathe, rainbow eyes. This is your thing, remember? Sunshiney optimism that is almost blinding, but you've got to remember to breathe."
She gave him a small smile and a kiss. "I'll just stay here, I think I saw Nora earlier, so I can make her entertain me." It was a lie, Delilah had no idea if Nora was at the party or not, but she didn't want Matt to think he was leaving her all alone. And if Nora wasn't here, there was always Charlie. "You go do what you need to do, and if you need anything, let me know, okay? I'm right here."
