Jacksons pov
We arrived in Oahu at a decent hour surprisingly enough. It was like 8. When we got to shore we parked the boat? I don't know what you call it and then we walked to Taylor's mums house. She was out of town at Hawaii, the big island. It's summer and she lives on Oahu might as well get away. Like why not, get away from paradise and go to another part of paradise. We went inside the place it was just an apartment, technically a hotel but she works here so they gave her a nice suite. Taylor moved to Oahu when he got a surfing deal with a surf company over there. That's actually where we met. Anyways we went inside and put all our stuff down and changed and showered and all of that to go out. I wore tan jean/khaki hybrids and a black button up short sleeve shirt a pair of back hi tops and a black beanie. Taylor wore blue jeans with black cutouts and blue hi tops with a white t shirt and sun glasses. We were ready to hit it. Lauren walked out in A black cut out dress and black heels. She straightened her hair and wore black lipstick. She looked like a dark enchantress.
"W...wow!" She smiles.
"You like?"
"I do!" She giggles that adorable fucking giggle.
"Let's go then!" We left the hotel and went to the first club on the way through town. When we got to it there was a rather long line.
"Wow this is going to take a while!" I say.
"Follow me!" She leads us to the front of the line. We stood in front of a big tan guy with short but think black hair. He appears about mid thirties.
"Sorry no entry allowed! Get to the back of the line!"
"Now Kai is that anyway to talk to your best friend!" He looks up.
"DJ sent me!"
"DJ?"
"We met a while back!"
"Oh how could I forget a beautiful lady like you!" He lets us right in.
"Have a good time gorgeous!" I glare at him as we walk through the doors. We walk in as ridiculously loud thumping dance music plays in the background.
"You knew him?" I ask Lauren.
"No I was just hoping that he had a friend named DJ and got distracted by my boobs!" We both laugh and she leads me over to the bar.
"Lauren you're underage!"
"Yeah so?"
"It's not good for your body!"
"Whatever!" A tan buff bartender approaches.
"And what'll it be for the green eyed goddess!" I dropped my jaw. That's my nickname for her.
"I will have a vodka tonic!"
"Coming right up!"
"Aren't you going to check her ID?"
"No need!" He winks at her and she blushes and smiles. Blushes! He makes her drink and then hands it to her.
"Aren't you gonna drink anything?" She asks
"I don't drink! It's not good for me, I don't find it necessary to add a chemical that numbs your senses and kills brain cells to a drink in order to get loose." She rolls her eyes and walks away. I walk after her.
"Lauren in sorry I didn't mean it like that! I just don't like alcohol. I have some medical issues."
"What're you pregnant?" She asks jokingly.
"No sickle cell anemia." Her smile falters.
"Oh sorry!"
"It's fine people don't usually understand why I don't drink."
We stay quiet and look around trying to find something to distract us.
"Wait where's Taylor?" I ask
"Over there!" She points to where I see Taylor making out with some girl in the corner.
"Damn we've been here for 10 minutes!" I exclaim.
She shrugs and sips her drink. We basically stand around for 15 minutes.
"So you wanna dance?" She asks.
I nod and we head to the dance floor. At first were just dancing separately but in from of each other and slowly get rid of the space between us. I don't know where but I gathered tons of courage and pulled her close till our bodies were pressed against each other. She looks surprised but shrugs it off and wraps arms around my neck and I place my hands on her hips and we sway together. We dance for a while before we stare into each other's eyes knowing what we both wanted. We start leaning in. We are seconds from kissing. I wanted to but I knew she was leaving in a week and I wouldn't be to LA for 3 weeks. She wasn't going to fall for me in one kiss or anything. But in the other hand she's leaving in one week and you only live once. I was interrupted from my thoughts by Taylor's voice.
"Jackson!" He yells. I let go of Lauren.
"What?"
"Uhm we gotta go!"
"Why?"
"Uhm because it's 2:00 in the morning and we wanna do as much as possible!" Damn how long were we dancing for. Maybe it was also the standing awkwardly which felt like 15 minutes but that was probably because I was so engrossed with her essence.
"Ok!" I took Lauren's hand and we left the club. We walked down the street the three of us talking and laughing. It was really peaceful. Not in the way that is was quiet but the way we were all having fun and easily conversing with each other, it couldn't possibly get better. We walked down the street until we reached the hotel again. We all showered and changed into pajamas for the big day ahead. I got out of the bathroom and see Taylor fast asleep on the couch with his arms hanging over the sides. His long black hair a complete mess under his head. His phone was dropped under the floor next to his hand. I shifted my eyes to left and see green eyed beauty staring down at her phone. She had a blank expression so I wasn't sure what she was thinking. I crawled over next to her on the bed.
"Lauren what's wrong?" She pulls the phone to her chest with urgency and puts on a smile and says "Nothing!"
"It doesn't look like nothing? What's up?"
"Nothing I'm fine!" I pull the phone out of her hand and read it.
Starlet Lauren Jauregui seen out in Hawaii on vacation with her band with two hunks. Some calling her fat!?!
I looked up at her. "You were wrong Jackson. They completely saw me as the fat person I am."
"Okay first off no you're not and secondly lets watch the video because there are question marks in the title.
"Fine ok!" She concedes. I press play on the video.
"Welcome to clevvr news! Today we have fat shamers on Twitter."
"Wah wah!"
"And are Justin bieber and Selena Gomez getting back together. And Camila Cabello speaks out about sexuality!"
"All now on the daily Hollywood rundown!"
"So our homegirl from fifth harmony Lauren Jauregui was on vacation with her girls in Hawaii. I don't know maybe she knew some people or met some people but she was on a boat trip to Oahu and caught on the beach in her bikini."
"Later on, some Twitter haters decided to attack her calling her beach body fat and disgusting."
"Well it is if you think that bleeping perfect is fat and disgusting!"
"Like look at her she's gorgeous. She's just got a really big booty. Like a perfect really big booty. I want her booty. She has chiseled girl abs."
"So what she's got a little extra on her thighs, she's Cuban she's allowed to have a little extra in her thighs it's called genetics. Baby got back."
"Yeah and either way these haters on Twitter are accounts that have been linked to the vamps because they called Lauren out as a slut and stuff went down and Harmonizers defended her and yeah."
"Well Harmonizers coming through again because they got #laurenisourprincess trending for 2 hours last night again!"
"I helped!"
"I as well! So Lauren if you're watching. You have a vulupcious body and the haters gonna hate hate hate but you should just shake shake shake it off!"
"Shake it off!"
I turned the video off and looked at her.
"See I was right you are not fat or ugly or anything ok?"
"Ok!"
"Now go to sleep!"
