Silence was his bliss

{Outfit in EL!}

I wasted no time. After I slept for a solid eight hours, I ignored everyone else and began to get ready.

I couldn't even begin to explain the beauty of the island of Hawaii. Just, the tress and flowers and people and colors, *deep breath* it was all so much.

People ignored me as much as I ignored them. But him-he-Liam....I was air to him. I dragged a brush through my still-pink hair and clipped a white flower into the side as to keep the harsh wind from ruining my hair.

Around my upper body went a blue, patterned bikini top. I tied the string around the neck and tightened the one around my back before slipping into a dark blue bottom. It almost felt too small on me, in many areas, but my other one was still wet and cold, so I had to settle.

I laced up blue barefoot sandals and ran out with a small bag at my waist.

My face, since I didn't wash it, was still tear lined. But I doubted that he cared.

My destination was exactly what I wanted: Trees, lots of them. Lined and laced with vines of all nature, blocking out the sun. In the distance, you would hear the waterfall above the roaring water. Flowers came up from all directions, adding a foreign scent to my adventure.

What was beneath my feet didn't matter, it was all plush grass. I watched my step, careful of what was ahead, but eberything else was up to my body, not my brain.

I heard a stick snap and shot my glance to that direction. A dark figure hid behind a tree. I sighed and continued walking until I was at the edge of the water. Now, it wasn't a stick-your-foot-out-and-it's-covered-in-water, but the ground actually sat at the top of the waterfall. Falling wouldn't be the grandest adventure.

I locked my arm around a tree and watched the water, for no real reason.

The figure showed itself from about ten yards away, Liam.

I sighed and sat down, ignoring him. His eyes would dart to my body then back to my face.

Nothing about this situation was awkward, it was his chance to redeem himself, as I wanted to think.

That time never came.

I didn't quite bring my eyes to him, but he eyed me over numerous times.

I stood up and watched the water below.

It may seem like suicide.....But it'll get you away from him, right?

As if sensing what I was about to do, Liam jumped up, "Jaz-"

I jumped, nothing simpler than that. I lurched from the edge and took a feet first plunge into the water.

My body hit the raging water, the warm sensation pricked my spine. Without looking behind me, I swam along until I came to another patch of land.

I ran back up to where I started, a few yards from where I saw Liam, and grabbed my bag before running to meet Cameron.

I guessed correctly, apparently the streets of Hawaii were much cleaner and glass-free-er than London, for in my barefoot sandals, I didn't get a single cut.

By this time, it was around nine and no longer did the sun propell itself against the white sky. The clouds made a deep blue pattern against the fading white background.

In case you were wondering where I was going, it was a Luau. Cliche, right? Well, this one I had been invited to, and so I decided to go, bringing my best female friend along, of course.

The setting was stunning; Palm trees scattered here and there, one grand tree holding a few lanterns-one one many lanterns as well, torches lit and their flame swaying in the calming wind, pillows of autumn colors placed strategically around the sand and a great fire in the center.

Cameron squealed and gave me a hug, which I lavished in.

She pulled back and took my hand, "Liam left the hotel, now the boys are searching for him."

I sighed, smiling when a native placed a, orange lei around my neck, "Call them, he followed me."

She hugged me, "Stop worrying about it."

I nodded as I wrapped a white sarong around my waist, covering my damp bikini bottom.

Before I knew it, I was dancing like I never had. Of course, I had, but the luau was so utterly different from anything I had ever done.

A sweet laugh escaped my lips as a native boy set his hand on my hips and moved with me. As a lot of people know, Hawaiian dancing is basically all about hips, and I'm pretty sure he enjoyed that.

I don't remember talking much, just dancing, and it felt good.

Hours passed and we fell into the night. Torches blew strong, the fire and lanterns still raging light against the darkness.

The boy and I never stopped dancing, which didn't bother either of us.

After quite a while of being in the dark, I asked, "What's your name?"

He chuckled, impressed, when he heard my accent, "Analona."

I smiled, "A real native."

He shrugged, "Well-"

"Pardon me, lad. But this girl isn't yours."

Analona turned around and faced the dark figure, "Excuse me?"

The boy cleared his throat, "You're right, what I meant to say was, back.off."

Analona gave me a weird look and walked off.

The figure came into the glow of the fire and revealed itself for the second time today.

Liam looked down at me, anger and pain in his eyes, which I copied to precision, possible even worse.

I sighed, "Glad to see you didn't loose your voice, jerk."

I grabbed my things and walked away, leaving him dazed and confused.

Tears fled my eyes when I got to the hotel. I ignored the four boys and ran for my room.

Instead of changing into anything else, I fell to the bed and sobbed into the pillow.

I contemplated leaving this entire thing; The gigs, the boys, my friend, Hawaii, everything.

The door opened and slammed shut. A deep voice cursed himself under his breath and a female calmed the other four boys.

I knew I had one chance, so did he, and it was our last.
