 We get over to the flat and run up to Harry’s room. I grab my swimsuit out of my bag and Harry gets his. He pulls off his jeans and underwear before I can turn away.

“HARRY! What have I told you about that?” I yell running into the bathroom with my suit.

“Oh you totally like it.” Harry says through the closed door. I blush even though he can’t see me and put on my suit.

“That is one VERY cute swimsuit.” He says commenting on my splatter paint bikini that Emilea had bought me.

“Hey who is coming swimming with us?” I ask as Harry carries me downstairs piggy back style.

“I don’t have a suit…” Emilea says sadly.

“Actually, you left the suit I bought you at the hotel so I brought it here.” Niall says leading her up to his room. I notice that Emilea’s nose had stopped bleeding. Everyone else leaves the room to go get their suits on and Harry and I run out to the pool.

“Let’s go!” Eleanor screams running out with Louis chasing her. The rest of the gang follows them out and I sit on the towel I brought out. I lay down letting the sun hit my skin.

“This is the life!” I say happily. I listen to everyone else jumping into the pool and watch Emilea jump in holding hands with Niall. I sit in the sun for a few minutes soaking in the sun before the sun disappears and water is dripping on me.

“Harry you’re blocking my sunlight.” I say tilting my sunglasses down to see over them.

“Aren’t you going to come swim with me?” He asks letting the water drip all over me. I shake my head and lean back on my towel.

“LOOK OUT KATIE!!” Emilea screams before Niall has his hand over her mouth and dunks her. I look up quickly and see Harry reaching down for me.

“GOD! You’re sooo cold!” I shriek as Harry wraps his very cold wet arms around me.

“Don’t put me in the pool!” I exclaim wrapping my arms around his neck. He walks to the edge and swings me like he is going to drop me. I hold on tighter and Harry jumps into the water. He doesn’t let me go so I come up splashing when he does.

“Harry!” I shiver trying to break free. He keeps his hold on me and my coldness makes me snuggle closer to him.

“I am sooooo cold!” I say shaking. He just laughs with everyone else and gives me a kiss.

“Let’s go swimming. Have you ever played dolphin?” Harry asks. I shake my head and he repositions me so I am riding on his back. He wraps my legs around his waist and hooks my arms around his neck.

“So you try to hold on as long as you can; I am going to swim and you take breaths when I come up.” Harry instructs. I take a big gulp of air and Harry goes underwater. I open my eyes and feel the sting of chlorine. When he comes up I squeal rubbing my eyes.

“Are you okay?” He asks looking concerned.

“I am fine.” I say blinking rapidly.

“Your eyes are bright red and you look like you’re going to cry!” Harry exclaims looking in my eyes.

“I am fine; I got chlorine in them.” I say rubbing them again. Harry shakes his head and just skims the water with me on his back. In the far corner Niall and Emilea are snuggling and I instruct Harry to swim over there. We do and start singing the jaws theme song and then jump on them.

“Can’t a guy hang out with his girlfriend in peace?” Niall jokes spitting water out of his mouth. All of our heads snap towards Niall and Emilea when he says that.
