It's all lies, Darling

We arrived at the beach house after two songs. The area was deserted, but there was loud music coming from the beach on the other side of the house. Niall and I transferred everything from the car to the kitchen. I throw my shirt off and lay it on the back of the sofa while Niall gets the last of the beer from the car.

I enter the kitchen, where Niall has just placed some beer in the refrigerator. He looks me up and down when he sees me walk in. I simply ignore it and reach for a water bottle from the refrigerator.

"You just gonna stand there staring at me?" I inquire.

He smirks and chugs a can of beer before exiting the kitchen. He brings a large pint of beer, most likely for the others. We leave the living room through the glass door, past the deck, and down to the beach.

We follow the loud music to a cliff on the beach's right side. The sand is warm from the sun, and the waves gently splash up on the shore. You can see the sun setting on the horizon, it's absolutely stunning. 

Harry and Liam are playing sand volleyball with Louis and Vera. Vera is actually better than I expected based on what I've seen her do while we walk. Lily is a little further away, sunbathing.

"Ey, Nialler got beer!" Louis exclaims when he notices us. Harry and Liam turn around and sprint towards us. Niall hands each of them a beer can. Liam gets one for Vera as well. 

Niall then hands me one. I cast a strange look at him and shake my head no.

"Come on, don't be such a wuss," Niall whines.

"I don't like beer," I say matter-of-factly.

"Have you ever tried any of it?" Niall says surprised.

"I have," I say as I walk away, "and it tastes terrible."

"I'll make you like it eventually," he shouts after me.

I just laugh and lay in the sand next to Lily. The others keep playing their game.

"Liam, get the frikking ball over the net this time!" Harry yells at Liam.

It's the final round and Louis and I are leading. If we win this round, we win the whole game.

Liam takes the ball and gets into position. He throws the ball in the air and serves it towards us. I jump up right when the ball goes over the net, and luckily I hit it and smash it right in front of Harry. Harry tries to get it but fall flat on his stomach instead.

"We won!" I scream in happiness and run to Louis for a hug. Louis catches me and twirls us around in laughter.

He then puts me down, and we walk over to Liam and Harry.

"Haha, that means you lads have to make dinner tonight," Louis laughs at Harry and Liam.

"What, when did we decide on that?" Harry questioned throwing the ball over to Louis.

"It was your idea, moron." Liam smack the back of his head.

"Ouch" Harry gives Liam a glare 

"But since we have to make dinner, I think you should keep us company," Harry says to me, with a smirk.
