-Y/N's POV (Falling For a Fan)-
My eyes fluttered open slowly and once they did, I felt something tough next to me, holding onto me. I shot my head to the right to see Clay was holding me, fast asleep.

Instantly, my cheeks heated up, and my heartbeat picked up loudly.

"W—What is he doing here??" I asked myself in my head, "Why is he holding me??"

Slowly, his eyes fluttered open too. I stared at him with a blank expression with widened eyes. Once he met my gaze, he instantly bursted out laughing and let go of me, scooting away.

CLAY:
"S—Sorry. You were having a nightmare last night so I held you to calm you down and ended up falling asleep. Your face just now was priceless, though." He chuckled.

I looked away from him with a light smile.

"The day we met, he had a nightmare, so I held him and fell asleep. And now, he did the same thing to me. Oh my G—" I thought.

Y/N:
"I—It's fine." I nervously smiled, "T—Thanks for calming me down..."

CLAY:
"No problem." His lips curled up, "Uh, did you wanna do something fun today?"

Y/N:
"Like what?" My eyebrows squished together.

CLAY:
"We could go to the beach if you want. Some time outside might be good for you."

"Seeing Clay shirtless, yes please—" I thought as my cheeks heated up more.

Y/N:
"S—Sure..."

CLAY:
"Cool, we can go after we eat. I'll make some breakfast for us." He stood up and left my room, making me release a shaky breath out.

I forgot what it felt like to wake up with him next to me, holding me. I forgot what it felt like to wake up to his sexy morning voice, with his hot messy hair. I bit my lip while remembering what he looked like the last time we were together that morning, before I got taken by Dream.

I ended up daydreaming too much, the whole time he was cooking actually. Once the bacon and eggs were done, we ate together at the kitchen island on the stools.

While eating, we spoke.

Y/N:
"So, Lia really doesn't mind you hanging out with me all day?"

CLAY:
"Nope. She wants me to, actually."

Y/N:
"Oh..." I thought for a moment, "Does that mean she's hanging out with Sapnap and George?"

CLAY:
"I think so, yeah." He nodded.

"Don't get hope. Just because he held you last night doesn't mean anything. He was just being nice. Just because we're going to the beach together alone today, while Lia is with Nick, it doesn't mean anything." I thought to myself, "You still need to leave...but...it wouldn't hurt to have a good day with Clay at the beach..."

After having small talk while we ate our breakfast, I got ready for the beach. I packed the essentials in my beach bag, brought 2 towels for us then put on a swimsuit over a dress.

I didn't feel like doing makeup nor my hair since I was gonna end things soon, so I called it good.

Once I was ready, Clay drove the two of us to the beach. Along the way, he put on his music, making me roll my eyes with a smile.

Y/N:
"Trying to promote your music, huh?" I joked, making him wheeze slightly.

CLAY:
"To be fair, they're amazing songs."

Y/N:
"You're right." I blushed.

CLAY:
"So, you have heard them?" He grinned.

When he grinned at me, it made my blush expand.

Y/N:
"Of course." I nodded.

CLAY:
"Which one is your favorite?"

Y/N:
"Kind of Love." My lips curled up.

CLAY:
"That is a good one." He chuckled.

Eventually, the two of us made it to the bright sunny, very hot, beach. Once we arrived, we walked down to the sand.

Right away, Clay swung off his shirt and set it down on the sand. My eyes couldn't help but look him up and down. I released a flustered breath out and decided to swing off my dress so he could admire me like I was him.

I ended up being right.

When my dress hit the sand, Clay's eyes scanned me from head to toe, and his cheeks became redder, but his oblivious ass still didn't realize what he was doing.

CLAY:
"I bet I could beat you to the water." He grinned.

It hit me that in the original timeline, I didn't know how to swim until Clay taught me. So, I decided to test my luck.

Y/N:
"Actually um...I don't know how to swim..." I lied.

CLAY:
"Oh." He raised his eyebrows, "I could teach you if you want."

Y/N:
"Sure." My lips curled up a little.

Right when Clay and I were about to run to the water, a girl walked up to him.

GIRL:
"Hi." She smiled at Clay, "I'm Sofie."

CLAY:
"Oh, hi." He turned his head to her.

"Are you serious? Clay was about to have a moment with me and this bitch had to intervene." I rolled my eyes while crossing my arms.

SOPHIE:
"I don't know how to swim either, wanna help me out?" She smirked while raising her hand to touch his shoulder.

I swallowed hard while narrowing my eyes at her.

Y/N:
"He has a girlfriend." I spoke up.

SOPHIE:
"I don't see her." She tilted her head while sliding her hand down his chest, "She'll never know."

I was about to walk away from this disgusting sight when Clay suddenly grabbed her wrist and moved her hand off of him.

CLAY:
"I'd know." He raised his eyebrows, giving her a serious look.

She scoffed while shaking her head. Soon, she walked away. I bit the inside of my cheek while looking down at the sand.

"Of course he's loyal to Lia, he really likes her..." I thought with a deepened frown.

CLAY:
"Sorry about that." He turned around to me.

Y/N:
"Why're you apologizing? She was the problem." My brows furrowed.

CLAY:
"Well, she interrupted us. So, wanna learn how to swim?" His lips curled up while holding his hand out for me to grab.

I softly smiled at him and nodded slowly, raising my hand to hold his. Right when our hands combined, I felt how warm his hands were.

Now, memories were flooding into my head of every time we've ever held hands. Holding Clay's hand always made everything better, every little thing he did always made everything so much better.

I didn't even realize Clay was running to the water with me until the water hit my waist. Once it did, he lowered his hands to hold my waist, giving me butterflies.

CLAY:
"Okay, I'll show you a few tips to start out with."

I nodded with my first genuine smile in this new timeline.

Clay ended up teaching me how to swim once again, but I faked everything so he didn't know I actually did know how to swim. But after all, he's the one who taught me twice.

The whole time, he held onto me on different parts of my body. The arms, the waist, etc. It felt like old times, it made me so much happier.

Once we were together for a few amazing hours, we both decided to get back to my apartment to relax.

When we made it to the parking lot, a voice captured our attention.

MASON:
"Y/N?"
