JJ's POV:

We get to the beach and lay our towels down and the girls just had to bring a bag. That's one thing I never have and don't think I ever will understand about girls. Like, why do they have to bring a bag everywhere they go? Sarah and y/n give each other a look before looking at me and John B, grinning from ear to ear.

"Oh god, what?" I ask, very scared of the response. They share a giggle before softening their facial expressions.

"We're gonna go for a walk and you guys are gonna come too." y/n says. I roll my eyes playfully.

"Ok, I'll go." I say, chuckling a little bit.

"Of course I'll go." John B says, hugging Sarah. I go to take y/n's hand but she slides it away from me, cackling as she rummages through her bag. She pulls out four hats, handing one to each of us.

"You're such a Mom." I tease.

"Have you got sunscreen on?" she asks and we all laugh. "No but actually though, do you?" she asks in a serious tone. 

"No." I say. Y/n throws a tube of sunscreen at me.

"Hurry up, walking along the beach helps me get tan." she whines. I chuckle, putting some cream on before throwing it back in the bag and taking her hand. She laces her fingers through mine and all of a sudden, I have butterflies in my stomach.

..

We walked on the beach for like half an hour and I didn't even complain once! Actually, I did complain about the heat and begged to go in the water, but y/n told me that then I'd be cold so I listened to her. She's really changed me. We get back to our spot and I throw my hat off before yanking y/n's off her head and picking her up over my shoulder and running to the water.

"JJ!" she squeals, "PUT ME DOWN!" 

When we get into the water, I gently lower her into the water and she splashes me before swimming away. While I'm chasing her, she suddenly stops and looks around.

Y/n's POV:

God, the Maldives is beautiful. The water is so clear and further out, so blue. There are some smaller islands further away and holy damn I've never seen anything more gorgeous. I feel JJ splash me as he laughs. I don't turn around, I just stare at this incredible view. He puts a hand around my waist.

"Everything ok?" he asks.

"This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." I say.

"I agree." he whispers. I slightly turn my head, to see JJ looking right at me.

JJ's POV:

She's so gorgeous. It's not fair that she's dating Topper. My intentions with this girl range from sweet and cute to -I shouldn't even say.

"This is the most beautiful thing I've ever seen." she says. I admire the adoration in her eyes.

"I agree." I whisper, not taking my eyes off her face. She turns her head to look at me.

"Goodness JJ, I can't even look at the view without you being obsessed with me." she says sarcastically.

"Don't blame me, love made me crazy?" I say, unsure if I got the words right.

"Have you been listening to motherrrrr?" she asks, her face lighting up.

"If motherrrrr means Taylor Swift, then yes." I say, mimicking the way she said 'mother'. She wraps her arms around my neck, tightly and giggles.

"I love-" she stops herself, pulling away. I grab her wrist.

"Say it." I whisper.

"I love Taylor Swift." she says. I frown, letting her go.

..

The day goes by and we go from beach to beach. Now we're all getting ready for dinner. Ever since the whole 'love' thing with y/n, I've been kinda distant from her. It hurt. Her almost saying that she loves me then backing out and for what? She's told me she loves me before so it can't be that big of a deal. Can it?

I walk into the bedroom to see y/n, her knees to her chest and head in her hands. She looks upset. I rush over to her, sitting on the bed, placing my hand on her knee.

"What's wrong?" I ask. She looks at me. She's not crying. She looks frustrated.

"What did I do?" she asks.

"What do you mean? You haven't done anything!" I exclaim.

"Then why have you been so distant? We barely spoke today." she says.

"Why didn't you say you love me?" I ask. The sooner this is over, the better. I hate fighting with y/n.

"What? When?" she asks.

"Earlier today. We were talking about Taylor Swift and you said I love and then you stopped yourself. I told you to just say it, but then you said that you love Taylor Swift." I say.

"It's true though, I do love Taylor Swift." she says.

"Yeah, but I know that you were gonna say that you love me so why didn't you?" I ask.

"I just feel guilty about this whole trip. I am a horrible person for what I'm doing to Topper." she says.

"No one's gonna tell Topper anything." I say.

"So what? That just makes it worse." she says.

"Just ignore it. Topper isn't here. Look, it's your birthday and if you want to spend it feeling guilty about Topper then go ahead, but I personally wouldn't recommend it." I say. Her eyes dart to my lips and quickly back to my eyes.

"I know. I just..." she stutters, "Fuck it." she mutters, pulling me by the back of my neck to her. Our lips connect and I feel a rush of guilt flood over me before realising that this is my girl, no matter what anyone says. She's mine. And I'm hers.

Y/n's POV:

A/n Here With Me -their songgggg 😭

I don't actually care about hurting Topper. I don't wanna do anything with JJ unless we're both all in -that means no relationships except us. Topper could jump off a bridge and I wouldn't notice. He's not the guy for me. I was blinded by my pain. That's such a bad excuse but he was there for me. He let me cry and just be upset about everything. I don't have the heart to break up with him over text. It's on my to-do list for when I get home. That sounds horrible, but I mean, it's Topper so who even cares.

Everything with JJ just feels so natural. It feels right. I love him and he loves me. I don't love Topper, I freaked out when he told me he loves me. I always feel safe with JJ too. I know he'd do anything for me. I'd do anything for him too. This feeling is how you feel when you know you've found your soulmate. It only took me 16 years, but I did it. I found him.
