Harry's POV

We were out on the beach all day, splashing around in the waves, soaking up rays. I noticed that Louis was kind of out of it, quieter and less funny than usuall. My only guess would be because of the nightmare he had last night.

I heard him scream in the night and Niall ran to check on him. Niall said it was a nightmare and Louis didn't give any details.

So I suppose it's not my place to pry. I excuse myself and head back into the house to make sandwiches for a mid afternoon snack.

As soon as I walk out with them on a platter, Niall sprints from the ocean and grabs three from it, practically inhaling them.

"Niall, mate slow down!"

He smiles with a mouth full of food, and runs back to the ocean. I set the platter down on the wooden table buried in the sand and take a seat on a beach towel.

"Ooo! Food!" Liam and Zayn say when they spot it.

I lean back onto the beach towel and close my eyes. Soon, I fall asleep to the gentle crashing of rolling waves and the accasional squeal of one of the lads.

***

I jerk awake to the rumble of thunder.

"It's gonna storm!" Liam yells as he begins to frantically pack up. I wake up fast and grab the empty platter and beach towels. The lads and I run into the house and drop everything down in the foyer.

I look out the window at the greying sky. Dark storm clouds crash through the sky and lightning dances over the horizon in the distance.

"Woah, that weather changed fast," Liam mumbles.

"Yeah. That's what can happen on the coast," I say.

"What are we gonna do now? Our day's ruined," Niall pouts, looking out at the downpouring rain.

A huge clap of thunder shakes the house and Louis lets out a tiny whimper. His knees buckle and he hugs me tightly.

"It's ok, Boo," I say softly and stroke his hair.

"It's scary," he whispers, clinging to me.

"Don't worry. You're safe with me. Nothing's gonna happen to you," I comfort. He nods.

I look over to Niall, whose face is blank and staring at us. A look of jealousy flashes through his eyes, but disappears before I can be sure I saw it.

I lead Louis into the living room and we sit on a couch. The rest of the lads file in and Zayn suggests we play some truth or dare.

"Wanna play truth or dare, Lou?" I ask him.

"Yeah!" his face lights up and he almost forgets being scared of the storm.

We sit down and form a circle with our crossed legs. Niall grabs an empty beer bottle and sets it in the middle.

"Ok," Zayn says with a mischevious glint in his eyes. He spins it. It lands on me. Of course.

"Truth or dare?" he asks.

"Dare!"

"I dare you to go outside in the rain for twenty seconds!"

I shrug and open the door. I step out and when the dare's over, the rain has soaked through my clothes, leaving me freezing to death. Once back inside, I wrap up in a blanket and tease Zayn, "That was easy, mate. You gotta come up with better dares!"

He just shrugs and Liam takes a turn. The bottle lands on Zayn.

"Truth or dare?"

"Ehh... Truth!"

"Have you ever truly loved someone? Other than Perrie."

Zayn takes a moment to think and then says, "There was this girl. Brunette, large green eyes, tan face. She was beautiful...," he sighs. "I really liked her, but we had to break up when I went out for X-factor," he half smiles.

An echo of aws escape all our mouths and Zayn says, "But, if I stayed with her, I'd have never met you lot!"

He smiles hugely. We agree and I say, "I couldn't imagine it."

After a couple more turns it's finally my turn. I spin and it lands on Niall.

"Dare!" he chooses boldly.

"Ok...," I think. Then the perfect one comes to mind. I smile devilishly and say, "Kiss Louis."
