The Nerd Marcel

Chapter 56

Marcel's p.o.v

 After a few minutes at my house we all piled into cars and drove off to Alex's house. With a bunch of swimsuits and pool gear. I don't know how a pool party would be a celebration for an engagement but I wasn't complaining, I got to see Alex in a swim suit again.

Once we arrived at her house we all imediatly began to change. The girls dragged Alex off to her room while the guys dressed in the living room. All facing away from each other. Of course Harry was the first one to remove his shirt, then Louis, then Zayn, Leeroy, Carter, and I. 

"When did you get those tattoos Marcey?" Leeroy asked. I turned to face him and glanced to Harry.

"A while back actually, when our parents left we got tattoos, they were fun" Harry smiled

"They hurt" 

The girls came running down stairs in a herd. Each girl going over to her own boyfriend. Alex was the last one downstairs, her brown hair coming down in waves to the top of her blue bikini. 

"Ready?" She asked smiling at me. I nodded and walked outside along with her, followed by the rest of the group. The water sat surprisingly still even with the slight breeze, I dipped a toe in and shivered at the freezing cold water.

"It's freezing!!" I groaned. Alex sighed and walked into the water flatly, making a slight spalsh while she made contact with the water. 

"Yup that's cold" She exclaimed popping out of the water. Everyone exchanged glances while I just smiled at my amazing Fiance.

Alex's p.o.v

After another hour or so we all began to get used to the water and playing in it. Danielle, Eleanor, Louis, and Liam all splashed in the water playing chicken while Leeroy, Niall, and Carter all sat in the hottub having a conversation about cartoons and Zayn talked with Harry and Marcel about hair products while they sat there in complete boredom. As for me, I sat with Perrie and Alison talking about everything. 

"It's scary isn't it?" Alison asked, dipping a chip in salsa while coldplay played in the background.

"What is?" Perrie asked. 

"The fact that we all used to be on 'oposite sides of the river' and now we're all great friends" 

I pursed my lips and glanced around at how she was right. Leeroy and Marcel would have never dared to go near them and now they've mixed with them. Leeroy used to be this almost shy guy that didn't have a chance to express his sexual orientation without being bullied for it and now he has a boyfriend. And as for Marcel, he never got anyone besides Leeroy, he never got the girl and he was just the nerd with a 'hot' brother and now he has a fiance and is able to be himself. 

"I guess you're right, everyone has sort of changed in a way. But in a good way" I agreed biting into the sandwhich Marcel left with me. I felt a sudden shadow overcome me and strong arms wrap around my waist. 

"Having fun babe?" I asked Marcel, pecking a kiss on his cheek. He nodded and smiled before taking a giant bite from the sandwhich I held. 

"Zayn is complayning to Harry about some L'oreal product that made his hair stick out for a week while poor Harry sits there like if he wants to shoot himself" He chuckled scooting closer to me and drinking a gulp of water, only holding my waist with one arm. 

"Ha, I remember that he freaked out everyday about it" Perrie giggled. 

"We called him porcupine through out that whole week" Danielle added smiling. I let out a soft laugh and looked at Zayn and Harry.
