I slowly followed behind Laura, Becky and the boys, I kept my eyes on Laura - she was about to tell me something that happened when me and my band were away on tour, she milked out and carried on towards the beach. We casually strolled across the sand before reaching a sunny spot just by the ice cream parlor. I patted the sand in front of my legs, gesturing for Laura to come sit down. She smiled that beautiful smiled I loved and sat down, I smiled lightly and wrapped my arms around her from behind, "So baby..." I whispered in her ear, she laid her head on my shoulder and looked up at me, "What?" She whispered back, I raised my eyebrows "You gonna tell me what happened?, she hesitated a little and looked around, stopping her sights on Becky, she smiled a little - I looked over to see Michael and Becky wrestling in the sand, I giggled a little and laid my head against the side of Laura's face, I closed my eyes and let out a sigh; I'd missed her so much, I was just glad to have her back in my arms. I looked around the beach, eventually snapping out of my daze, I looked down at Laura as she was talking to Becky. "I'll let her tell me in her own time, forcing her to spill won't get me nowhere" I thought to myself, "Who wants ice cream?" Luke shouted getting my attention, "Chocolate 99, bro" I smiled, "Mint choc chip" Becky and Mikey said in unison, they looked at each other with a light smile. "I'll have cookies and cream please, Luke" Laura replied politely, Luke nodded with a smile and turned to look at Calum "You bro?", "Strawberry please, man" Calum replied standing up "I'll help you" he added, both Luke and Calum headed to the ice cream parlor.
- Becky's P.O.V -
I stared across to the sea and fell into a daydream, I had to tell Michael today but how was I supposed to find the words? I got sexually assaulted while he was away and didn't even bother to tell him...or anyone else for that matter, I shook my head and looked over at Ashton, he was hounding on for Laura to tell him earlier but she kept hesitating, I'm glad she didn't tell him, I've always been able to trust her. She must have known Ash would tell Mike, I didn't want that, I wanted to tell him myself, I knew he'd want detail. It upsets me going over that night but been able to tell people close to me gives me that little more reassurance that I'm okay, that as time passes things WILL get better, I'll overcome this ordeal. I laid my head gently on Michaels chest, he wrapped his arms back around me, I felt safe and secure, his arms were the only place I'd ever want to be for the rest of my life. Deep down, I know he'll understand when it comes round to telling him, I smiled a little at the thought. I lifted my head up just as Cal and Luke arrived with the ice cream, "Here you go, girls" Calum smiled handing Laura and I our ice cream, Luke gave Ashton's and Michael's and took a seat back on the sand. "This is nice" Michael smiled, "So is mine" Ashton smirked, "No, I mean us hanging out like this. I've missed it", I looked over at Ashton and put my head down giggling, "Idiot" I laughed, "Well..." He squealed out, with that Laura jumped out of her skin, nearly dropping her ice cream causing me to laugh more, "What the hell, Ashton" she shouted, "I'm sorry, baby" he said in between laughter pulling her back into his arms, she shook her head smiling and carried on devouring her ice cream. I looked up at Michael, "They're cute" I smiled, "So are you" was his reply, softly kissing me on the lips, we embraced until Calum shouted "Stop, too much PDA", I pulled away with a huge smile and carried on eating. "We're gonna leave you guys to spend time with each other after here" Luke smiled, "Oh, how nice of you" Ashton replied sarcastically, "Shut up, bro" he said with a shake of his head, Ashton just giggled.
