D A I S Y

Something woke me up, the next morning. My head was burried in someones neck. I slowly pulled back and looked up. Luke lay above me, asleep.

This is wrong.

I tried my best to not wake him up as I entangled our cuddling bodies, and scooted to the other side of the bed. I've cuddled with Luke before. This time isn't any different.

Right?

I rolled over and tried to figure out what woke me up. It was a text from Jacob.

Turns out is was 4am here, but my idiot of a boyfriend got mixed up and thought it was 10am. I texted him back, telling him he woke me up at 4 in the morning and that he was an idiot.

Sorry. He texted back. I giggled and set my phone down.

An arm suddenly wrapped around me and pulled me back into a warm chest.

"Go to sleep," muttered a half-awake Luke. I felt weird all of the sudden, being this close to Luke.

But I pushed that thought into the back of my mind and drifted off to sleep.

The second time I was woken up this morning was not by a text from Jacob, but by Ashton. He was shaking Luke and I and telling us to get up.

"Go away!" Luke and I whined, ducking under the covers.

"Come on, we're going on an adventure!" Ashton chirped. I heard him walk away, when suddenly, sunshine flooded into the room.

"Rise and shine! You two better be up by the time I come back," Ashton warned.

"Or what?" Luke teased, rolling over.

Ashton laughed and bounced out the room, going to go wake up the rest of the group.

"Oh yeah," Ashton came back into the doorway. "Put these on." Suddenly two things of fabric landed on top of Luke and I with a thud.

I rolled out of bed and investigated what the pieces of fabric were.

"Are these -?"

"Wetsuits," Luke interrupted.

"Oh, and you'll need these," Ashton threw something hard at us.

Whatever he threw ended up hitting Luke on the head.

As Luke whined and tended to his injury, I checked out whatever Ashton threw at us. Turns out they were masks and a snorkel.

I grabbed a wetsuit, a mask and snorkel and went to the bathroom to change. The suit was tight and clung to my body, showing off every curve.

Every inch of fat on my body.

I felt disgusted, staring at this thing I was wearing. I imagined how skinny and perfect Bryana would probably look in this, and felt lile crying.

But I sucked it up, and walked out, keeping my head down. Luke walked past me, carrying his stuff.

I found Calum and Michael in the kitchen, both of them clad in the wetsuit.

Calum gave me a cup of tea and surved me a small plate of food.

"Eat what you can. It's okay," He assured me.
