I woke up the next morning with dry tear tracks and yesterdays eye makeup caked on my cheeks. I rolled out of bed and stripped off my clothes as I made my way toward my shower. I stepped under the scorching water and immediately scrubbed away the makeup.

I'm sort of better with my whole mourning my brother thing, but I'm embarrassed about crying in front of all of them. Now I'm going to spend the whole summer receiving hugs for comfort, being told they feel bad for me, and anything to show their sympathy.

I mean, don't get me wrong, I totally appreciate the kind words and prayers, but after two years of people walking on eggshells around you, it's easy to miss being treated like a normal person.

I stepped out of the shower and wrapped a towel around my body, and another around my hair. I got dressed, and did my hair and makeup, (http://www.polyvore.com/im_yours/set?id=54264916), before making my way downstairs.

All the boys were sitting randomly around the kitchen and I smiled brightly. They all gave me sad, awkward smiles back and I sighed. While pulling a bottle of juice out of the fridge, my mom rushed into the room, late for work as usual.

"Morning, Kaylee." she mumbled and picked the cup of coffee Zayn was just drinking and left the room.

Zayn stared at where his drink once was and I giggled. It was really quiet and I leaned against the counter, attempting to lighten up the mood.

"So, what do you wanna do today?" I asked cheerfully while sipping at my juice. They all just shrugged and I rolled my eyes. "I guess I missed the elephant when I walked in." I mumbled under my breath and crossed my arms.

"We could go to the beach?" Niall suggested and I smiled, glad at least someone was thinking of something other than my personal problems.

"I'm in!" I squealed and looked at the others in anticipation.

"Isn't that too public?" Liam asked skeptically and I shook my head no.

"The building my mom works in is on a privet beach, it's really nice." I stated and they all nodded in agreement. "Yay!" I cheered and ran to my room to get ready.

Once everyone was ready to go, we all got in the car and drove five minutes to the gorgeous beach. It was about 11 in the morning, and we decided to stay here almost the whole day and watch the sunset.

We pretty much had the whole beach to ourselves, which the guys were super excited about. We all laid our towels and blankets out and I grabbed a water bottle out of the cooler. Zayn and I stayed back while Liam, Harry, Louis, and Niall splashed around in the water.

"You alright?" he asked softly and I turned to look at him.

"Yea, why wouldn't I be?" I asked like it was obvious and he sighed. "Look, I'm sorry if I embarrassed you by telling them or crying in front of them, but if I can put it behind me, you should be able to." he looked at me shocked and I smirked. "Yea, English Muffin, I can get just as deep as you."

He smiled and I smacked his arm, "PERV!" I giggled and I could tell he was going to say it anyways.

"That's what she said!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, catching the attention of all the other boys. "But, by the way, you didn't embarrass me, I was just worried you went mental."

"Aw, your so sweet." I said sarcastically and laid on my stomach. The sun was beating down on us and I turned to ask Zayn if he wanted to go in the water, but he was staring at something out in the water. I looked out and saw Niall staring at me, but he looked away.

"Hey, um, do you like Liam, Niall, Louis, or Harry?" he asked as he copied my position next to me.

"Well, I don't know them all that well." I sighed and watched as Louis dunked Harry underwater. "It wouldn't matter, anyways, I'm not their level."

"That's your opinion. Kaylee, don't take this to your head, but your hot." Zayn chuckled and I rolled my eyes. "Plus, I know of one that likes you."

"So, you wouldn't care if I dated one of your best friends." I stated, trying to understand it better.

"Eh, of course I would, but I'm not in charge of you." I smiled at him and pulled him into a hug.

"I'm going in the water." I giggled and jumped up before pulling off my coverup and flip flops. I sprinted toward the water and leaped in. Once I felt the ice cold water against my skin, I screamed. "God! What the fuck?!" I ran out and stared out at the laughing boys.

Louis splashed me and I screamed before leaping on him. He dove under the water and I stayed under as long as I could. Once I popped up, I jumped on the first person I could see which was Niall. Right as I reached him, he turned around but before I could change where I was going to land, my lips crashed into his.
