Saved in the waves

Part 1

Ginny's POV
As I'm trying to find a bathing suit for the beach in my drawer, I stub my toe on the door and immense pain shoots in my foot. 'Good job Gin' I think to myself as I profusely rub my toe like its the end of the world.
I'm so sorry, my name is Virginia Jane Wood but I go by Gin or Ginny. I'm seventeen years young and I live with my guardian Nick. Nick has known me since I was thirteen. He's a family friend from my church and when my parents died a few years back, he took me in. He's a very sweet person and now I'm starting to cry as I think of my parents.
GET IT TOGETHER GIN
Sorry I still miss them....
Anyways, right now Nick and I are in Florida for vacation because he graduated from medical school (which is in Florida) yesterday. We still have a few more days in Florida and I'm trying to soak up all the sun in because I'm a snow bunny from Michigan.
I was actually born in Ireland because my family is Irish and I'm Irish so I have a "weird" accent for the states.
BACK TO THE TASK VIRGINIA
I finally found a black halter top with peach bottoms and slip them on. Then I got to the bathroom and put on some waterproof makeup and sunscreen.
"Nick, I'm finished!!!" I scream to him in the other room, waiting for him to come out of his room.
He walks out in tropical swim trunks and grabs the keys. I make sure I have my towels, phone, earbuds, sunscreen, and some water so I don't get dehydrated. I grab my sunglasses and we're out the door.
The drive is about twenty minutes to the beach so I decide to crank up the music just to annoy Nick. I hear One Direction's "infinity" and start singing my little heart out.
"You're so loud" Nick scolds with his accent clear. He's also Irish but he has a little British in him so he sounds kind of funny actually.
(AN NO OFFENSE TO ANY IRISH-ENGLISH PEOPLE I THINK THEY ARE LOVELY)
"Oi, me voice isn't too loud" I say and he mocks my thicker accent. We argue like this until we reach the beach and park in the only spot left.
It's the middle of May, what do you expect??
I hop out of the car, grab my bag, and sprint to the sand (actually not really, that would be dangerous). I set my towel in the sand and try to soak up some sun. Nick lays his towel next to mine and try to tan but I'm pretty sure he's burning.
"Nicholas Francis DePere, you're burning" I say and he takes his earbuds out and sees for himself.
I grab my sunblock and start putting it on his stomach and rub it in.
Not that way ya dirty scalawags
"I can take care of myself Gin" Nick defends himself.
"Clearly not love. I thought you were MY guardian" I say and laugh it off for a bit.
"I am but you're almost eighteen. After that you can do whatever you want. You're free."
"I'm free now. See I'm so free I'm going to go swim in the ocean where there are sharks and stingrays and other harmful things" I sass and jump into the water( again not literal, I'm not a rebel).
I. Love. Water. I'm such a water baby and Nick knows it because he didn't follow me into the ocean. I secretly think he's working on his "tan".
HA I CRACK MYSELF UP
CALM DOWN GINNY
Trust me I'm not insane, I just like to think loudly.
As I'm swimming away in the water, I feel a tug on my leg. This object keeps pulling me down and I can't bring myself to fight against it. I start screaming for Nick but he doesn't come to the rescue.
"HELP, HELP. I CANT BREATHE. IT'S PULLING ME DOWN" I scream as loud as I can. Before I know it, I reach far enough below surface to where water suffocates my lungs and I'm out like a light.

Liam Payne's POV
The lads and I have decided to go to the beach today before our last concert in the states tonight.
We are currently playing a game of chicken in the water (as Niall is eating a piece of chicken from Nando's). I will never understand him. I have Louis on my shoulders and Niall is on Harry's. Just before Niall is going to push Louis, I hear a girl yelling loudly for help. I stop the game and try to find the girl. I spot her and watch her go under. Since Niall is closest to her, I nudge him and he sees what's going on.

Niall's POV
I feel Liam nudge me arm and I see a girl flailing her arm as she down in the water. I dive into the water and I feel a massive wave come over me but I still try and find the girl.
I finally see her leg and I pull it out of the seaweed bundle that her foot was stuck in. I grab the girl and swim to the shore with the lads following me. I set her on a towel. I did have to say, she looked kind of cute unconscious.
FOCUS NIALL
I watch her as Liam starts to do CPR on her since he took classes awhile back. He starts pumping on her chest and she starts to come to. Her eyes slowly open and her face is full of fear. I go to grab for her hand to comfort her but I'm pushed back by a lad my age. I'm pretty sure he knows her because she seems to calm down when he looks at her.

Ginny's POV
"What happened? Why am I coughing?" She asks profusely coughing and this guy rubs her back to calm her down.
"We saw you were drowning and Niall went to save you. Your feet were caught in seaweed and I gave you CPR for a while then you came to. By the way, my name is Liam" Liam said and I started laughing.
"I know who you are silly goose. I'm a directioner. I promise I won't fangirl in front of you" I giggle and cross my heart.
"Who are they?" Nick asks with confusion. The lads introduce themselves as does Nick.
"Oh, these are the guys you always talk about" Nick remarks and I slap his chest telling him to zip it.
"It's alright love. We're irresistible" Louis says and I smirk.
"As if" I sass back.
"Hey! You're Irish, like me" Niall exclaims and I nod.
"Nick is too, by the way, I'm Virginia but please call me Ginny. Thank you for saving me" I hug the boys and they reciprocate.
"Where were you when we saved her life?" Harry asked a little annoyed.
"I was renting us some boards because Gin is a great surfer. I was only gone for two seconds" Nick says with an apologetic look on his face.
I hug him which says that it's okay.
"Hey Ginny, tonight is our last concert in the states. We have extra tickets and passes if you want to come?" Liam says and I look at Nick with the best puppy eyes. He nods his head and I agree.
"Concert starts at seven. Be there at six and ask for us" Harry says as he types their numbers into my phone.
We say our goodbyes and Nick and I head home to get ready.
This is going to be great 😊
