Rebecca X Josh One Shot

You swung your bag around your shoulder yet again, the fabric constantly slipping off your bare skin. The sun was absolutely blazing as Josh and yourself walked down the beach hand in hand. You were going to meet the others, the rest of the boys and a few of your friends for a day down here, weather clearly permitting.

The sand was starting to fill up your shoes so you gave his hand a tug and sat down on the ground to take them off.

"What are you at?" He laughed, waving your arm, hands still joint.

"I'm taking my shoes, you twat" you replied, shoving the first one into your bag. When you had them both off again, and stood up, Josh had decide you weren't walking anymore.

Since the next thing you knew you were up over his shoulder, blocking around and laughing your head off as he ran across the beach to where her spotted the rest of them.

You hit his back, still laughing. "put me down!" You choked, as he swung you about, spinning in circles and all sorts.

"We were taking too long" he laughed in reply. You decided to retaliate by taking his ray bans of his eyes, the sun almost blinding. He reached for them but you already had them over your forehead.

"What are you doing?" He whined, glaring against the sun.

"I'm leaving you blinded my the light" you giggled as he set you down on the sand again, holding his hand out.

"Very clever, now give them back"

"I think I quite like them actually" you smirked, drawing them over your own eyes. You took your own pair out of your bag and set them in his hands. "but you can have these ones if you like?"

He looked down at the pink blackout glasses you'd placed in his hands, raising an eyebrow. "I don't think so" and he grabbed the ray bans off your face, and started running again.

You sighed in defeat before starting to walk after him, a smile still tracing your face. The crystal sea was sparkling right out to the horizon, and the sand nearly burning your feet. When you finally reached the patch of beach where they'd set up, Josh was already set out in his swim shorts, itching to get into the water.

"Come on" he whined. You groaned a little, wishing you could tan.

"Why aren't you Dayl?" You asked, punting at where the boy was laying on his towel, shades on and tanning like anything.

"Because Dayls boring" he replied, poking your side. He was then greeted by a back pack to the back of the head. you let out a snort, but surrendered anyway. You took off the short you had on over your bikini and pulled off your shorts, stuffing them into the bag after laying down your towel.

But before you could even try to lay down like Dayl, he had you by the arm and was running like a little kid down to the water. You were laughing as he pulled you, then rolled your eyes the second he touched the sea, almost squealing with the cold.

"I sound like Brendan right now" he laughed, high pitch while he waded further out. You laughed but winced at the same time as the freezing water filled up around you.

You turned back around to see Bren flipping him off but when you looked back to see his reaction he was gone. Only a few ripples left on top of the water. You tried to brace yourself.

You knew out if way too many experiences that he was not in fact drowning or being pulled away by a harbour seal, rather beneath the water about to dunk you under.

But he was way too strong. You screamed as he surfaced again, wrapping his cold arms around you waist laughing his head off. You just about managed to suck in a breath before being consumed by the water.

You sucked in the entire atmosphere once you surfaced again, giving him a splash with the water. Cian and one of your friends had now joined you, messing in the water as well.

"Oh let's play knock offs!" You suggested, getting used to the temperature. The others shrugged or agreed, all smiles, and before you knew it, josh was telling you to get on his shoulders when he went under.

As soon as his head disappeared under the surface, you reached down and set your self onto his shoulders, probably possibly yanking the hair out if his scalp but what are you gonna do when you need to hold on.

Cian and (y/bestfriends/n) were already up out and ready for impact. You shoved out your hands, as Josh tried to run forward, squealing. You ended up tackling each other for a few seconds, attempting to ouch the other off until Cian thought he spotted a jelly fish and literally dropped the competition from his shoulders, running toward the shore again.

"You twat there's nothing there!" Josh laughed at him, as (y/bestfriends/n) followed him in, rolling her eyes.

You were now about neck deep in the sea, treading water or floating on your back, occasionally going up for the waves. "Ahhh this is my peak" you sighed happily. But of course he couldn't leave you relaxed as another wave of water was splashed over your face.

"If you do that again I'm going sunbathing with Dayl!" You threatened jokingly. He smirked,

"Well then can I still do this" before lifting you up out of the water, his extra height giving him the extra but of strength, and the almost throwing you back in again. As you sank into the water you decided you'd attempt you try get him back holding your breath as long as you could.

When you surfaced again, gasping for breath, he had the worried look giving you your triumph. "I though you drowned or something!" He gasped, holding his chest.

"Aww poor you, I wonder what poor josh would have done without his he loved girlfriend" you joked, goosebumps forming along your skin now.

"I don't know! I might have had to start sharing a bed with Bren again and we both know he's not the best spooner" he replied, leaving you with a scrunched up face.

"I would hope that neither of us have ever experienced Brens spooning skills! I know I haven't"

He laughed in response, starting to tread back into the shore. You were still smiling. That always seemed to happen when you were with him, always grinning or laughing or smiling.

You dried yourself quickly when you made it back to the little camp the lot of you had set up. Apparently Ryan thinks it's best not only to bring your coats, but those giant wind sheeted screen things as well so you now had basically a little trench slash home basically sent up.

You set your towel back on the ground down beside Josh's and lay down again, your head resting on his chest. The sun was scorching down and Dean had the stereo on, best playlist of all time on.

You were with Josh.

Like you said, this was your peak of existence.
