The Wave

Chapter 3

After about a twenty minute drive from the airport, Harry pulled up at the house where the five of us would be staying. 

"YAY!!! We are finally here!" Niall screamed as he galloped from the car to the two story beach house. 

Liam jogs over to me after setting our bags on the porch and reaches for my hand. 

"Come on Charlie! Get in the water!" 

"NO! Liam no no no no nO NO..."

Liam grabbed my waist ran down to the water, laughing. 

"LIAM I AM SERIOUS! STOP DON..."

I was cut off by him throwing me into the cool ocean. Resurfacing, I gave him the "look", but he didn't seem to notice. 

"LIAM." I growled as he swam over to me.

"Babe I'm so sorry...really I am." Liam said, peering over me with these huge puppy dog eyes. 

How could you not resist?

"Fine! God I hate you sometimes!"

His laugh rang across the water and it sent chills down my spine. How could you love someone so much?

He picked me up bridal style and walked back up to the shore line. Niall, Harry, and Abby where all back up at the house

Abby and I excused ourselves, grabbing our bags, and headed upstairs to our bed rooms.

The front entry was grand, with bamboo floors spreading out through the entire first floor. The walls were a simple blue, not trying to compete with the beautiful view from the windows. A chandelier hung in the middle of the space in between two stair cases leading upstairs.

I was in awe. It had to be one of the best beach houses I'd ever stayed in! Abby and I hurried to fine the rooms we where staying in. 

"Oh. My. God." Abby breathed as she opened the door.

Her bedroom was light coral with white trim lining the room. A white metal bed frame with a coral comforter covering the mattress sat in the center of the room with a little bed side table beside it. A sitting area and window seat adorned with colorful pillows finished off the space. 

I quickly ran to my bed room to find it was the same layout but with a yellow color scheme. We meet in the jack and Jill bathroom that we shared and started unpacking. 

"This is great! I am so excited!" Abby jumped happily around the bathroom before skipping back to her room. I laughed and followed her. 

"Me too Ab! But I'm still worried about that tsunami warning. What if it does hit?"

She stopped unpacking and looked down at her hands. 

"Ya...I mean I'm worried too. It was just a warning though. So we shouldn't have to worry too much. Right?"

"Right." I sighed, "we don't have to stress about it! This is a vacation after all!" I squealed!

"Yes! Yes it is!" Abby jumped onto her bed and I fell on top of her. 

This was just the start of a great vacation...I could feel it.
