The Neighbors

Chapter 46

**Sheas POV**

"Please," Noah begs me.

"Noah, Im not that good," I say.

"One dive from the side, that's all," he says.

"Fine, ill do one," I say and climb out to the edge.

The tile is slick with water so I walk carefully to a spot with nobody in the pool.

"Woooo!" Noah cheers me on shamelessly.

I put my hands together and prepare to dive. When I go to push off of the tile I slip and slam into the water, making me gasp as soon as I hit it. Im an idiot.

When I gasp I inhale some of the water and start to choke. I cough and frantically inhale, but I'm underwater so all that I end up doing is bringing more water into my lungs. I try to swim out but I can't tell which way is up it my drowning state and it all starts to go black.

I think I'm going to die now.

**Noahs POV**

"Woooo!" I cheer her on as she gets ready to dive in.

She has no idea how good she looks in that bikini and I want to hide her so nobody can see.

She puts her little hands up and prepares to dive when things take turn for the worst.

She slips and when he hits the water she starts to thrash around. I watch for a few seconds to see her come up when she doesn't. Instead of returning to the surface she just calms down and stops thrashing.

"Shea?" I say and swim towards her.

"Shea?!" I shout.

I dive under and loop my arm around her to bring her back to the surface. I carry her to the edge and set her down gently.

"Oh my god!" Some girl says.

"Get help right now!" I shout aggressively and she nods and runs off.

I climb out of the pool and kneel over her. Her lips are already turning purple.

"Shea," I sake her shoulder but she doesn't move.

A crowd is already forming.

"Does anybody know mouth to mouth?" I shout angrily at the crowd. Im such an idiot. Why the fuck do I make her dive, I know damn well she didn't want to but I asked her to anyway and now she could be dead.

Fucking idiot.

"What's wrong?" Harry runs in.

"She fucking drowned! DOES ANYBODY KNOW FUCKING MOUTH TO MOUTH?" I shout at the crowd again.

"I do," Zayn says and I look at him.

"Not now Zayn," I say.

"Do you want her to die?!" Harry asks me.

"I don't need this fucking shit!" I shout and punch a plastic pool supply bin, putting a hole through the lid.

"Just let me help her," Zayn says.

"Fine! fuck!" I say. I would rather watch Zayn make out with her than watch her die any day.

Zayn bends down next to Shea's wet body and puts a hand on her forehead and another on her jaw to tilt her chin up. Just watching him touch her makes me sick.

He pinches her nose and opens his mouth to cover hers entirely. My stomach turns. He blows air into her lungs and takes another breath before doing it again. He tries another few time and let's out a frustrated groan.

"Try again," I urge him and he nods. Tears sting my eyes. He puts his mouth over hers again and blows air into her lungs. Her chest rises and he does it again.

Shea's mouth opens and water spills over the side of her mouth.

The crowd cheers but I focus on her. She lets a few coughs and spits up more water. I rush to her side.

"Zayn?" she says and looks at him.

"You're alive!" he says and lifts her up to hug her. I would punch him to the moon and back if it weren't for him fucking saving her.

"An ambulance is on the way," a random girl tells me. I nod and shoo her away.

When Zayn lets go of her I wrap my arms around her and hug her as tight as I can.

"Are you ok?" I sob into her neck. I probably sound like such a girl, but I don't care.

"I'm fine," she says and coughs a few more times. I feel water hit my back where she coughs but it doesn't bother me, she's okay.

"The ambulance is already here," Zayn says and when I look at him he's got red, eyes with tears in the corners threatening to spill.

I pick up my girlfriend and carry her to the front where the ambulance is, pushing past bodies in the house.

Zayn follows us to the ambulance and I glare at him the whole time. I hate him.

I tell the guy about our situation and he takes Shea away. I tell her that I will meet them at the hospital so I can take her car.

I watch as the ambulance leaves and then turn to Zayn.

"What?" he asks.

"Thank you for saving her," I tell him, but I'm sure he could detect the aggression in my voice.

"What is your problem?" he asks me.

"My problem is that you are the dick who fucking beat up my fucking brother and you just fucking hugged my fucking girlfriend," I half shout.

"You're the one getting pissed about me hugging your girlfriend when you made out with mine!" he shouts.

"She's not yours!"

"She was at the fucking time and now you're pissed about the same thing, only difference is: why you did was worse and I don't have a twin," he says. God I want to hit him.

"I'm not like you," I say through gritted teeth.

"Really? Because we both want to hit the guy that made a move on their girlfriend, I just happened to make a mistake and I got your bother instead. Maybe if you hit me now we can fight out what I was trying to do a long time ago!" He says and I ball up my fists.

"Noah!" Harry shouts as I walk towards Zayn. There are wet marks on his dry shirt where he hugged Shea and it infuriates me.

"Noah stop!" Harry says and I look at him.

"Noah, please don't," Logan pleads with him.

"You don't want to go back to the way you were before we moved," Harry says.

I look at Zayn and back to my brothers.

"Fuck! Fine!" I say and start to walk away towards the boys.

"That's what I thought," Zayn says and before I know it my fist is connected with his jaw.
