It's been a week since we first got to Hawaii and it couldn't have been better!
Niall, Liam, Abby, Harry, and I spent the days shopping, surfing, tanning, and just having fun!
The thought of the tsunami vanished in my head, leaving me stress free!
We were all at the beach, tanning, when I heard Abby and Harry having an argument.
"No Abby! I'm the only one committed to this relationship! You just use me!"
Abby took a step back, stunned. "USE YOU! HOW THE HELL DO I USE YOU! You're the one who just wanted a "friends with benefits" sorta thing!"
'Shut up!"
"YOU SHUT UP!"
Harry looked like he was about to say something, but instead he just huffed and stormed off.
Abby fell on the towel next to mine, breathing hard.
"I. Can't. Believe. Him. How could I have been so stupid to ever like him!"
"Ab! You guys will be fine! You always are! You both said some things I'm sure you didn't mean. Just cool down then talk to him again. Ok?" I looked over to her out of the corner of my eye.
Abby sat back in the sand and sighed. "Fine. Ok. I'll talk to him before or after dinner. I do hate arguing with him."
Liam, who was just coming back from surfing with Niall, looked down the beach at Harry.
"What's with him?" He asked.
"The usual," I sighed, "you should talk to him. Make sure he's ok."
"Alright! I'll be right back then." Liam dropped his board and jogged toward Harry.
Niall stared at the ice cream cart that was making it's way down the boardwalk. I smiled as his eyes followed it as it came closer and closer to us.
"Niall, do you want some?" I giggled as I got up and started rummaging through my bag.
"Ya but I left my cash up at he house! I don't want you to..."
"It's my treat! You're fine, Niall!" I handed him a five and he took off to the cart.
"He's like a little kid!" Abby laughed!
"I know! It's adorable!" We watched him reach the cart and look at the list of flavors.
Just as we went back to tanning, the ocean pulled back. Way farther than usual.
"Wow! Ab look at this!" I scrambled off my towel and walked to where the water used to be.
"What is going on! It's so beautiful." Abby whispered as she came up next to me.
You could see all the shells that were once barred beneath the sea. Fish flopped on the sand, searching for water. It was like nothing I had ever seen before,
Everyone now has gathered near the waters edge. Murmurs spread through the crowd.
All of the sudden someone shouted, "GET BACK! GET BACK! GET OFF THE BEACH! IT'S A TSUNAMI! EVERYONE RUN! GET AWAY FROM THE BEACH!"
Abby and I looked at each other. The water has already started making its way back to land. The wave getting higher and higher. We started running.
"NIALL! NIALL RUN!" I screamed as we came closer to him.
Niall dropped his ice cream and looked down the beach.
What is he doing!? I thought. Then I remembered.
Liam and Harry.
I stopped dead in my tracks. The water was coming closer. The wave about to break.
"CHARLOTTE WHAT ARE YOU DOING!" Abby yelled, "WE NEED TO GO! NOW!"
"LIAM AND HARRY ARE DOWN THERE!"
"CHARLOTTE WE NEED TO LEA..."
Abby was cut off by the sound of water hitting land. The once tall wall of waves crashed down.
I stared, unable to move. I saw Abby's lips moving. I saw Niall look behind him and turn pale.
I saw the wave knock down the life guard stand, umbrellas, people's things being carried away
I turned to Abby and was about to scream, but water filled my lungs.
I was under.
