It Was Just A Bet

Hookups and Sunburn

Pearl 

After Ryan, Chaz, and I finished unpacking, we agreed to head down to the beach like we had planned. I went into my closet and pulled out my hot pink, string bikini. I put it on and then slipped on a loose cover-up. I grabbed a tote bag and stuffed it with a towel, sunglasses, and some sunscreen.

"Okay, guys," I said, walking out of my room and into the main room, "ready to go?" Ryan, Chaz, and Justin were standing by the couch, shirtless, towels in their hands. Their backs were turned and all I could focus on was Justin's muscular back. I gulped. They turned around and looked at me, and I tried to hid my amazement. Justin's had a six-pack. He is so hot. Ugh. I took a deep breath and licked my lips. Why must he be so good-looking, why? 

"Can't look away, can ya Pearl?" Justin said coolly. I quickly looked up at him. He had an all-knowing smirk on his face. I rolled my eyes in an attempt to cover up the faint blush creeping onto my cheeks.

"Let's just go." I mumbled, pushing past them and opening up the door. They guys trailed behind me as we walked out of the hotel room and to the elevator.

A few floors later and some more walking, we made it to the beach. Our hotel was literally on the beach, it was pretty sick.

We laid our towels down not too dar from the water. I dumped my tote bag down. I lifted up my cover-up and slowly pulled it off. I tossed it in my bag and got out my sunscreen, rubbing it on my skin.

I looked over at the guys. Ryan and Chaz were already walking around the beach, most likely looking for girls. I rolled my eyes.

But Justin, he was standing in front of me, staring at my body. Now it was my turn to smirk.

"Look who can't keep their eyes off me." Justin snapped out of it and looked up at my face.

"Uh..." He trailed off. I shook my head and started walking towards the water. The ocean was the clearest blue I'd ever seen. 

"Hey, wait up! Where are you going?" He ran after me until he caught up, walking beside me. 

"Into the water..." I said. Duh.

"Oh."

"Aren't you going to go and get some hot chick?" I waved my fingers towards Ryan and Chaz, who were flirting it up with some girls, "Go join your buddies." 

"Won't you be lonely?" Justin asked. I scoffed. Like he even cares? He stepped closer to me. "I mean we can swim for a little, and then go back to the hotel and we can..." He trailed off, winking at me. I pushed him away.

"Like I said before, you wish. Seriously, you perv, go. Ew." Justin laughed as he ran away from me, down the beach towards where Ryan and Chaz were.

Good. What a creep. 

I stepped into the cool water and felt better. I ducked my head under and felt refreshed. The water was beautiful. I laid own my back and enjoyed the feeling of the sun warming my body.

I spent about an hour swimming peacefully. It was very nice. I decided to head back to my towel, though, my toes and fingertips were beginning to resemble raisins. 

I laid down and closed my eyes. The sun felt so nice against my skin. I wondered where the guys were. I hadn't seen them for over an hour. I fell asleep wondering what they were doing, and who they were doing it with.

Justin

"Okay, guys," I heard Pearl's voice behind me. Ryan, Chaz, and I turned around to see Pearl ready for the beach, "ready to go?" I followed Pearl's eyes to where they lingered on my toned stomach. I couldn't help but to smirk at her. I know she wants this.
