---Annabelle's POV---

"Stop," he told me and I stopped moving. We were in the five feet section. His head and part of his chest was still out of water while my head and shoulders were the only things above water.

He started to lean in and so did I. We were a centimeter apart before we both leaned in and our lips touched. Once he processed what happened, He stopped kissing me and backed away.

"Oh my gosh. I'm so sorry. I wasn't thinking. I'm so so sorry," he told me and continued backing up till he got to the steps of the pool.

"Zayn, wait," I called out but he was already in the hotel.

I sat in the pool thinking over what just happened. There were definitely sparks but not as huge as they are with Brad or Niall.

Niall came out with Louis and Harry. I have a feeling Zayn had told him and now I'm kind of afraid of what he has to say to me. Harry and Louis jumped in and swam over to Liam and talked giving Niall and I a little bit of space so we could talk. He walked slowly down the steps of the pool stairs and I walked slowly to the shallow end towards him.

"I'm sorry Niall. I didn't mean to lean in. I wasn't fully aware of what was going on and I leaned in and kissed him. I'm really sorry Ni..." I said to him. He just looked at me for a few seconds and pulled me into a hug.

"I'm not mad baby. Zayn already told me when he ran in. It's both your faults but it's fine because I don't like to hold a grudge. Anyways, I'm happy you told me and didn't keep it a secret because then I would've held a grudge," Niall told me.

I let out a huge sigh of relief and backed up a little bit but not enough to break the hug. I just stared at him and smiled and he smiled back. Ugh! I just love his smile! It's so cute!

"Annabelle, you need to go talk to Zayn. His key card is in me wallet in me suitcase. Take it and go to his room. I know he's asleep but just turn on his hair dryer, it'll wake him up," Niall told me. I just nodded my head, kissed his lips, and got out of the pool to dry off. Once I was done, I put my clothes on and headed up. I took the stairs and walked into our room after unlocking it.

I grabbed Zayn's extra key card and headed over to his room. I slid it in the lock and opened the door. I headed over to the bedroom and saw him on the bed asleep. I did what Niall told me to do and it woke Zayn up right away.

"Who the hell is in here?!"

"Calm down Zayn, it's just me. We need to talk." He looked at me skeptically.

"Why? What do we need to talk about?"

I looked at him as if he was crazy and didn't know what happened just a half hour ago.

"About the kiss that happened a half hour ago. Why'd you kiss me? I'm not mad I just want to know the reason why," I told while walking towards him and sitting across him on his bed.

"I kissed you because...I kissed you because I like you. I really like you, but when I saw you and Niall holding hands I knew I wasn't quick enough to make you mine. I'm really sorry for kissing you but you can't deny those sparks that were there," he told me.

I said to him while looking away,"I didn't feel any sparks...I didn't feel anything in that kiss..."

He lightly grabbed my jaw and made me look at him while saying,"Look me in the eyes and say that again. I dare you. I know you felt those sparks so don't lie. If you're telling the truth, look me in the eyes and say it again."

I just stared into his chocolate brown eyes and stayed silent. I couldn't say to him that I felt nothing because I felt something.

"Exactly, don't lie to me. I know you felt the sparks in that kiss but I also know that you don't have feelings for me like you do for Niall. I was jealous and I'm sorry for kissing you but I don't regret kissing you," Zayn told me while looking me in the eyes.

I gave him a friendly smile and gave him a hug. I whispered in his ear," I'm sorry for lying and I'm sorry for not liking you that way. Btw, I don't regret the kiss either."

I heard him give out a light chuckle and felt him pull away from the hug. We talked for about another half hour before I told him that I needed to take a shower to get the chlorine off of my body. He walked me to the door and gave me a hug, closing the door behind me. I headed back to my room, took a shower and went to bed. Yes it was only about 4 in the afternoon, but I was really tired after all that happened today. I sent Niall a text telling him I was going to sleep and he said he will head up in an hour. I plugged me phone into the charger and pulled the covers up to my chin. I had All Time Low playing in the background while falling asleep. I couldn't keep my eyes open any longer and drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
