Portugal was stunning. It truly was a beautiful country. Although it was only February it was quite warm and sunny so the most of our time was spent sunbathing and in the pool.
Nearly the whole week of Reece and I being on our own had gone by, nothing of any significance happening.
Apart from one thing; I felt happy. I felt good and happy and like everything was going okay for once. It was an unusual feeling, one I didn't get very often, but it was amazing and thrilling to feel that kind of joy again.
Reece had noticed and he seemed a lot happier too. Things were going really well I must say, but I don't want to jinx anything. The boys were right, we needed a holiday.
Every morning I had woke up to the smell and sound of sizzling bacon from the room next door. Often I could hear Reece singing or humming to himself and I must admit, it was a beautiful sound.
I found myself in this situation on the morning of the day the rest of the boys were arriving. I lay in bed for a few more minutes just listening to Reece, a smile creeping across my face.
When I heard the toaster pop up I got up out of bed, going to help Reece with breakfast. He was pretty good at cooking breakfast but some things did end up burning.
I walked into the kitchen to find his back to me, smothering Nutella onto a piece of toast. I walked up to him, wrapping my arms around around his waist and reaching up to give him a quick kiss on the cheek.
"Morning babe" he said, turning round and pulling me into a hug. "Did you sleep okay?"
I nodded and picked up the piece of toast, taking a bite. He looked at me grumpily as if to say it was his toast and I stuck my tongue out at him before walking back into the bedroom to get changed out of my pyjamas.
After breakfast we just relaxed and waited for the boys to arrive. They were getting a few taxis from the airport and were due at some point around 2pm.
I must have fallen asleep on the sunbed because I was woke up to multiple shouts from around and being drenched in water. The rest of the boys had arrived.
I groaned and sat up, seeing Jake, Casey and Chris stood around me with buckets in their hands. They found it hilarious and ran off to jump in the pool with the others.
"Oh ha ha" I said sarcastically, taking off my wet shorts and top, with my bikini underneath, before joining them all in the pool.
"Well that wasn't very nice wasn't it" I laughed as the boys splashed each other with pool water. I swear they're like 3 years old at heart.
They all laughed too, they were in a ridiculously hyper active mood.
After a few hours of sunbathing and staying in the pool and playing pranks on each other around the house we finally sat down for something to eat.
"So on a more serious note, are you doing okay Alice? Like are you feeling a bit better about stuff?" Barclay asked once we'd all finished eating.
"Yeah I am actually. I feel good and this holiday has helped a lot" I replied, smiling.
"Well that's what we aiming for, its nice to see you really happy, I must admit" Barcs said and the other boys agreed.
It was nice to have the boys back with us. I mean, I've loved the time I've spent alone with Reece over the past week but it wasn't the same without the rest of the boys there and I'd missed them.
After dinner the boys all sat round to play on the Xbox that was in the villa and I just sat and watched.
This was pretty much how the rest of the holiday went, it was simple but nice and relaxing. I felt like this holiday really was what I needed to feel better.
A/N
This is so short I'm so sorry, really I am. And I'm sorry for not updating regularly like I said I would and I've got no excuses because I've finished all my exams and school and all I've done is sleep tbh. So yeah sorry, I really am trying to update more often but it's not working and I'm too lazy at the minute oops.
Thank you all for still reading though even though the updates are probably getting worse and worse, I really am sorry. I've lost all energy to write this fanfic so I'm not sure whether to kind of leave it here and just do like an ending chapter or something like that. Like, I've got an alternative ending but it's a good 10 chapters away yet and idk whether it's a good ending or not so tell me if I should carry on or not in the comments because I need some motivation to update lmao.
One more thing (authors note is getting too long again damn) is that if I do write another fanfic, which I probably will because I love writing, would you's prefer another stereo kicks one or 5sos? I have a plot and stuff for both and would probably be easier to 5sos because less boys involved but obviously I've got mainly sk fans as readers so it's whatever you's would prefer I suppose. Again leave what you think in the comments because I'm stuck on what to do.
Please keep voting/commenting/sharing and doing all that because y'all are amazing at it!
I need to stop rambling but yeah ily all and hope you're all good x
