The rest of the afternoon at the pool, was fairly fun. After going back into the water giving up on the hope of getting a tan, the rest of the boys joined us in a game of water basketball. I have to say, running around in the water was quite the workout. I'm sure my legs will be extremely sore tomorrow. Niall got to pick the teams. He knew I was absolutely rubbish at basketball, so he picked me to be on his side, mostly because he's quite good and the skill level evened out. Niall also chose Liam to be with us.

Louis, Zayn, and Harry were left to be on the opposing team. This ought to be interesting considering I will be trying to dodge my boyfriend. Oh boy.

As the game progressed, our team was winning by a long shot; mostly because whenever Louis got the ball, he tried an impossible heroic shot that usually missed by at least five feet. Why must he make everything so difficult, I asked laughing to myself.

I stayed near the hoop and made a few shots from underneath, which was pretty impressive coming from me. I swam out a little further because the guys were charging in my direction trying to get the ball from eachother. Liam suddenly passed me the ball and I didn't what to do with it, and sadly Niall was blocked by Harry so I couldn't just toss it to him. Louis started to chase me and before I knew it he had me around the waist attempting to get me to let go of the ball.

A little after that encounter with Louis, Niall and Liam were completely surrounded by the guys. Niall had the ball, naturally. Liam ushered me over and surprisingly lifted me so I was sitting on his shoulders. Niall threw me the ball and I easily dropped it in the hoop. Game over.

I was still on Liam's shoulders as we gave eachother high fives and did a little victory circle. Harry and Zayn said that they would beat us next time. Yeah, right.

As fun as that was, we decided to call it a day after that. The boys dropped me off at my appartment before heading over to theirs.

"See you at seven," Louis whispered in my ear as I got out of the car.

After showering and getting dressed in some short beach shorts and a flowy, purple tank top, I let my hair dry naturally, parting it in the middle so the waves were even. That's the way Louis liked it.

Wondering what all this night had in store for me, I just decided to put on a little eyeliner and mascara, with a touch of pink lip gloss.

Just as I finished, I heard Louis pull up in his car. I looked out my bedroom window to see him leaning against the passenger door, hands in his pockets. It looked as if he had freshened up too.

"Ready?" he asked opening the car door for me and helping me in.
