Niall's POV

.

Wait a minute. Ashley has a brother. She never told me that!

"You have a brother?" I asked her.

"Um..." Ashley said looking uncomfortable and sad. "I used to."

She started to cry. She ran out of the water and grabbed her towel. She ran off the beach and to her house.

"What happened to him?" I asked Catarina.

"That's not for me to tell you." She replied.

"I understand. I'll go up and talk to her." I said

"She really needs someone there for her." Catarina said

"Okay I have to go. Bye." I said getting out of the water.

"Bye." Catarina said paddling back out to Louis.

Ashley's POV

.

I ran to my room hiding my face in my pillow. The memories flowed back into my mind.

*Flashback*

It was a sunny summer day. I watched all the surfers in the competition. My brother got a huge wave. It crashed and the crowd screamed as a body floated to shore.

*Flashback over*

It was to much for me to handle. I heard the door bell ring my mom answered the door. I recognize the familiar accent. I hear footsteps come to my room. A knock at my door. Niall opened my door and sat on my bed next to me. He must have changed out of his swimsuit. I'm still in mine.

"What's wrong love?" Niall asked

I whipped some tears from my face.

"I'm sorry. It's just when it comes to my brother it's a really touchy subject for me. That's why I didn't tell you about him." I said trying to stop crying.

He hugged me. I put my head on his chest. Letting him warm me up.

"It's okay. You don't have to tell me anything besides that." Niall whispered.

"But I want to. I can't hide from what happened forever." I said. "It all happened almost 3 years ago. My brother, who's name is Brendan, was an amazing surfer. He almost went pro, if he won his last surfing competition. He was in a big competition, whoever won would get sponsored by Quiksilver. He caught a huge wave. We're not sure what really happened. He could have hit his head or neck on the sand bar as the wave crashed. We'll never know. But once the wave crashed my brother was still on it. He didn't have time to get off it. After it crashed he didn't come up. Then his body came across the shore, and he wasn't moving."

I started to cry again. Niall whipped the tears out of my face.

"I'm so sorry." He said hugging me tighter.

"He taught me how to surf. That was what we did every weekend, together. But ever since the accident, I never got on a board again. Catarina has tried to get me to surf, but I never did." I told Niall.

"I understand. If something like that happened to my brother, I wouldn't surf again." Niall said.

He kissed my cheek. I looked into his sparkling blue eyes, that looked sad after I told him my story, and kissed his lips. I laid in his arms for a long time just listening to his heartbeat. I just wanted to stay there forever, but I knew he probably had to go.

"You should probably get going its getting late." I said

"But I don't want to go." He whispered.

"I know, but my parents will kill me if you stay to late." I told him

"Okay. I love you." Niall said

"I love you too." I said

We kissed again. I walked him to the door. Where he hugged me one last time. We said our goodbyes and he left. Did I really just make him listen to my brother's story?

Author's note: kind of a short chapter. Sorry about that
