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.
Everything froze.
Nothing else was happening except Niall and I. His strong hands rested on my hips as I lightly touched his bare chest with the tips of my fingers. His lips were salty, like the water, with a hint of mint lingering on his breath.
He licked my bottom lip, which snapped me back into reality. I immediately pulled away and turned my back to him, squeezing my eyes shut. I'm such an idiot. Why the hell did I just continue to kiss him?! Why didn't I pull away right when it happened?! I coughed and slowly trudged through the knee-high water, and back to my towel.
I wrapped it around my shivering body and sat back down next to Zayn
"Woah, Kaylee, I didn't expect it to happen that fast." he joked and I shot him a dirty look. His smile dropped and he shamefully looked down at his legs. I pulled my phone out of my bag and started messing with some games, trying to avoid eye contact with anyone.
After about an hour, we had all decided to start a fire to roast hot dogs and marshmallows. The sun was setting in it was a little chillier than we all expected it to be, but it was so worth it for the view.
I was trying so hard to focus on the beautiful scenery, but my mind kept wondering back to the accidental kiss. It was by far the most I've ever felt behind an embrace, and I was caught off guard by how much it made me want more. The feeling of my heart beating faster and faster, how soft and gentle his lips were against mine, and how lightly his fingers touched my waist.
Almost like I would break under his touch.
I wrapped my towel tighter around my shoulders, still freezing even though I had my coverup and sweatshirt on. The fire was lighting up all the boys faces, extenuating their unique facial features.
Zayn's chiseled jaw, a soft scowl absentmindedly sketched into his brow.
Liam's kind eyes, constantly lit up with happiness.
Harry's small smirk, most likely from thinking of something immature.
Louis' smile, causing his eyes to crinkle up, making you instantly feel happy.
Niall's face in general. His eyes made my heart flutter, wether he was looking my way or not. His hair almost completely air-dried, sticking up every which-way, making me slightly smile to myself. The way his mouth moved when he talked reminded me so much of my brother, which made me want to feel closer to him. And, no, no the creepy way of reminding me of my brother, but the kind, sweet soul I've missed for two years without fail.
I noticed that I was staring at Niall, so I quickly turn my attention back to my marshmallow that was far from burnt by now.
I was about to pull it out of the fire when it slid off my stick and fell onto the wood. I frowned and threw another marshmallow in after it.
"Why did you waste a perfectly good marshmallow?!" Louis asked as if I committed murder.
"I didn't want the other one to die alone." I said softly and they all looked at me funny. I shrugged and threw another one in, watching the horror spread across their faces. I smiled and threw another one, but this time at Zayn's face.
He picked it up off the ground and blew it off before shoving it into his mouth. I groaned in disgust before pulling my bare legs to my chest. I watched the fire as it lit up our small circle of people in the now dark night.
"Anyone up for some football?" Harry suggested and all the boys nodded, I told them I was gonna stay back and they all gave me sad smiles. I sighed and rested my chin on my knees, slowly rubbing my arms up and down my shins, trying to warm up a little bit.
I looked up at the stars and started to count them. I usually do that when I'm trying to get my mind off something, or trying to fall asleep. I got to 65 when I felt a warm jacket drape over my shoulders.
Niall.
I could tell by the amazing scent of his coat. I looked up and saw him smiling down at me, the place where he was standing caused the stars to reflect in his eyes. He sat down next to me and folded his hands in his lap.
"Hey." he said softly.
"Hey." I mumbled and held my legs tighter, finally warming up from his jacket. "Look, I'm really sorry about earlier, I really didn't mean to." I said barely loud enough for him to hear me.
"Oh, don't be. I didn't mind." he blushed and I did as well. I looked down at the ground and Niall crouched down in front of me. I stared into his eyes like puddles of water, so clear I could see into his soul. His left hand lightly caressed my face before his lips met mine for the second time today, but this time, it was real.
