“Aww! They’re so cute; take a picture,”

“I’m working on it,”

“Guys be quiet, we don’t want to wake them up.”

My eyes start to flutter open at the sudden sounds. I feel an arm around my shoulders and my pillow keeps moving. Ugh. I open my eyes fully to see Zayn, Niall, Louis and Harry circled around me and me basically sleeping on Liam.

“Nice going, Niall, you woke her up.” Zayn says.

“Hey it’s not my fault!” Niall pouts. I roll my eyes and attempt to stand up. Key word: attempt. Liam has a death grip on me. Harry tugs on Liam’s hair, causing him to let go of me altogether as well as wake up.

“Why are you guys standing there? Don’t you have to get ready or something?” Liam asks them, yawning half way through.

“Yeah, we’re planning on going to the beach today if you two want to go.” Louis offers.

I was about to say “sure” but then I remembered that the beach requires walking around in what looks like a bra and panties.

“I, uh, I can’t go. I have a friend I, uh, have to meet up with in an hour.” I lied. I can’t believe I just lied to them out of all people…

“And why am I not believing this?” Louis asks,

“C’mon, Abigail, we want you to come. Right, boys?”

“Right,” they all say in unison.

“I can’t just cancel plans,” I continue, lying still. I wish they could just let it go already.

“You don’t have plans,” Liam intercepts.

“How would you know?” I ask, I haven’t exactly told him anything about plans.

“Because I looked at the calendar on your phone, it had nothing for today. Everyone puts their plans in their phone.”

Well damn.

“Fine, I’ll go but I get to wear what I want and you have to drive me to my flat to get changed.” I say. He grabs his keys and shakes them, showing me that he will drive me. I make a “hmph” sound and walk to the door with my arms crossed. The drive there was basically Liam warning me about the boys at a beach; apparently, they’ll do everything they do in fanfictions. Not like he actually said that though, the way he described it was exactly how it was in fanfictions.

We eventually get to my flat and I tell him I’m going to take ten minutes and run inside to get changed. After about 3 minutes of trying to decide, I go with a black bikini but a white -shirt that says ‘sarcasm’ on it and high waisted shorts. There’s no way I’m going to be in a bikini in front of the boys. That’s the main reason of why I lied about having plans. I don’t feel very comfortable in what’s basically a bra and panties.
