[A/N]: Good afternoon, audience! Sophie and Elsie here. Who else would it be? ANYWAY, we are losers and didn't actually put in the fanart that TheToothFairy94 made for us so they get ANOTHER dedication! Yaaaaay. TWO more actually because they drew Niall and Louis! This one is Prince Louis if you can't tell. Which you should be able to because he's got a crown on. Also! Sorry it takes so long for updates! But we like to kind of talk over what will happen on the next chapter, but even then we don't always have time to write it! BUT NOW WE BOTH HAVE NEW LAPTOPS AND WE'LL BE LIVING IN THE SAME DORM SOON. SO. Things are looking brighter for the updates on this fic xD ON WITH THE CHAPTAH. ♥ xx

"Do you see him?" Niall dragged himself further onto the rock.

"Don't fully let your tail dry yet," Louis warned, gently petting the otter he held in his hands. "Harry still has to bring you clothes. He'll be here eventually..."

"What if he forgot about us?"

"He didn't forget," Louis rolled his eyes. "He's probably getting away from Liam and Zayn. Liam is very... nosy? But I think it's just because he cares."

"I'm just nosy because I don't want to miss out on something awesome," Niall declared before bellowing. "Like meeting a human!"

"What about meeting a human?" Harry's head popped up by the edge of the rock, still standing on the sand below.

"You must be Harry!" Niall crowed, pushing himself onto the rock at the same time that Harry climbed up. He leaned back to whisper to Louis, however. "He's fit."

Louis glared at Niall, but remained in the water with the otter. Harry set down a bag of clothes, looking from Niall to Louis, "You must be Niall! You sound Irish… did you originate from around there?"

“My parents did,” Niall explained politely. “I’ve lived near the royal grounds my whole life.”

“Gotcha,” Harry nodded, turning to grin at Louis. “Hiya, Prince! Whoa! Is that an otter?”

"You wanted to see one, right? And I figured you didn't want to swim out all the way to the rock, so I brought the younger one over. She wasn't doing anything and wanted to come."

"She wanted to come with you?" Harry giggled. "She told you that?"

"Yes, actually. I can talk to all the sea life, remember?"

"Right..." the curly haired boy grinned, hesitantly stepping forward. “So I just... come over and pet her?"

"Pet her, hold her... she knows you're nice. And that you think she's cute," Louis offered the otter out to the boy, and Harry rushed forward.

He pulled the damp and furry critter into his arms, gushing over it, "It's like an adorable cat but better! Look at your nose, it's so cute!"

"She loves compliments," Louis chuckled, pushing up onto the rock.

"So... how long do I have to sit here?" Niall motioned to his tail and sprawled out.

"I give it ten minutes, maybe fifteen," Harry said slowly. "You have to dry..."

Louis inched his way to sit next to Harry, "Her name is Coral."

"Like Nemo's mum!" Harry grinned, and Louis arched a brow. "It's a film..."

Niall rocketed up, "Like the Titanic? That was the film you watched yesterday, right?"

"Yeah, how'd you..." Harry slowly looked to Louis.

Louis scratched his head as he looked out at the waves, "Uhh... I don't know what he's talking about, he makes things up sometimes."

"Funny how I got the exact name of the film and know what a film is, your highness," Niall crowed. "Just admit it, you were talking about your hu-"
