"1, 2, 3, go!" I yelled.

We all jumped in the pool, hand-in-hand and grinned. I shivered at the water and clung on to Luke next to me.

"Are you cold?" He asked.

I nodded, and clung close on one of his body parts.

It turned out to be his big, muscular arm. I stopped and froze. He looked at me weird and asked what's wrong.

It's not like I am scared of it, I just didn't know what I was doing.

"N-Nothing" I let go of his arm and he seemed pushed back. "Sorry for hugging your arm"

He chuckled when he realized that it was just his arm. He came near me and he put a finger under my chin. He lifted my head gently and looked into my eyes.

The world stopped and it felt like forever when he finally hugged me. I was blushing like crazy. I rested my head upon his bare chest and even in this cold water, he was still warm. His big arms wrapped around me and I wrapped my arms around him. I didn't want this to end but, it did.

"Ooh" Calum whistled. We let go and looked at him.

Calum wrapped his arms and he smiled. Angelina came up beside him, rocking her blue swim suit, and smirked too.

"They would be a great couple" she whispered to Calum.

"I know" he whispered back.

"We heard that" Luke rolled his eyes.

I laughed and blushed.

"What's there ship name?" Angelina asked, sounding excited. "Fuke? Or Lorla?"

"Fuke sounds like fuck" Calum replied.

We all laughed and they agreed on Lorla.

We decided to play swimming games like, who can hold their breath underwater longer, the splashing games, and many more.

By the time we were done playing, we earned a lot of sunburns and tan lines, and we decided to hit the sack.

Angelina and I went to my house to shower while the boys went Luke's house. We all said our goodbyes and decided to meet at Luke's house when we were done.

Luke's P.O.V.

"Aye Mate" Calum called out.

"Yeah?" I replied back.

"Can you get me a towel?"

I grunted, not wanting to do it because I'm lazy.

I was in deep thoughts about Flora. Damn, she's so beautiful. The way her hair flowed down like a waterfall, her beautiful hazel eyes that looked like nature, never could bore me, and the way she sang too; she sang so beautifully.

Probably better than me.

People say that I should love celebrities like, Selena Gomez, or Taylor Swift. I mean, yeah, they're pretty hot but, they could never beat my little Flour.

I smiled at the nickname I gave her. We were baking at her house and we had flour everywhere. On me, on her. I decided to call her Flour ever since and I still smile to it.

I wanted her to make me mine. I wanted to say 'You're my girlfriend, you're mine' but apparently in this world, we have to ask them and go all through the embarrassment.

Why does life have to be so hard?

I want to ask her, I really do, but I am a pussy. I can't do it. Plus, I think it's too early. I mean, I just got back. I don't want to rush things, just in case we leave again to go on tour.

Snapping back to reality, I have Calum his towel and he nodded a thanks.

"I know you are thinking about Flora" he smirked.

I flipped him the middle-finger and he smiled.

"Fuck off" I groaned.

"I know you love me"

"Well, you seem to like Angelina too" I smirked.

His smiled vanished and he bit his lip.

"Well, I just met her" he responded back.

"I could see it in your eyes that you do" I rolled my eyes.

"Okay, maybe, I do, but I just met her and it will be like the Disney movies" he groaned. "Except it won't be a 'happy ever after' type of story"

I nodded in agreement and he asked if he could borrow my clothes. I threw some clothes at him and he called me a dick. He went back in the bathroom and changed, while I thought about all the little memories that we shared.

In the back of my brain, Amnesia was playing. What everyone doesn't know, I wrote that song for her.

___________________________

Flora's P.O.V.

We walked back to Luke's house, Angelina tagging behind me. She decided to wear my black ripped jeans, white t-shirt, and black converse. (AN: did you see what I did there?)

We knocked on the door and waited for them to open the door. I looked at the sky. So bright and glorious. The sky was mixed with orange and pink, making look like a real painting. Puffy white clouds blotched on beautiful sky. The sun was setting, making it even better.

I looked at my phone to see what time it was.

5:34

Not too late.

They answered quickly and let us in.

"So.." Luke plopped on the couch. "What do you want to do?"

Calum looked at him and Luke looked back. They grinned widely while we stood there, not knowing what to do or say.

"FIFA!!" They shouted and they raced to get their controllers.

I played FIFA before. It's a good game but, I'm not obsessed as Luke is.

I looked at Angelina and I gave her 'what-are-we-going-to-do-now?' look.
She shrugged and we sat on the other sides of couch.

We watched them intently, lip biting, backs crouched, and staring intensely at the screen. I sighed and went on my phone to read fanfics

5SOS fanfics.

I know, it's weird, but.. they're interesting.

Some of them made me cry.

Don't judge me.

"Yes!!" Luke cheered.

He waved his hands in victory and gave a high-five to Calum.

"Whatcha reading?" Angelina scared me and I almost dropped my phone.

I looked at Cake to see if they were looking at us. I showed her and she gasped.

"You're reading that one?" She exclaimed.

I nodded excitedly and she gave me a high-five.

That's when my phone got taken away.

Ooo. Cliff hanger. Okay so idk why but the gifs in my chapters has been multiplying? Idk why but sometimes I will put photos instead of gifs cause yeah. Hope you like this one. ;)
