Beach

Ashley

"Ashley I'm bored" Calum whined as his head fell on my shoulder.

"So go do something" I replied, shoving him off.

"Like what?" Calum asked.

"Guys can we go to the beach today?" Miranda asked as she came down the stairs.

"If everyone wants to" I shrugged. I pushed Calum off my shoulder and followed Miranda into the kitchen where everyone else was.

"Should we go to the beach today?" Miranda asked.

"Sure. We'll go after breakfast" Ashton decided.

"Speak for yourself" Luke said. "Maybe I don't want to go"

"You're going" Michael said.

"It's not that hard babe" I laughed as I took the beach chair from Ashley. I opened it up for her and placed in the sand next to mine.

"Tyler and Calum are going in the water, do you want to go?" I asked Ashley as I set up another beach chair.

Ashley shrugged before she pulled off the shorts and shirt she was wearing, leaving her in her bikini. I smiled and pulled her into a kiss before we walked down to the water.

Ashley dipped her toes in the water before jumping back. "Why is it so cold?" She questioned.

"You have to get use to it" I laughed, wrapping my arm around her waist. Ashley and I slowly went further and further into the ocean until the water was up to our chests.

"See it's not so bad" I smiled. I pressed my lips against Ashley's forehead as I wrapped my arms around her waist.

"Michael" Calum yelled as he motioned for me to come over.

"Hell no, you're too far" I yelled back.

"Your phone is ringing" He replied.

I glanced at Ashley before pecking her forehead again. "I'll be back, it might be important"

I watched Michael walk back up to the shore and take his phone from Calum. He tensed up for minute and glanced back at me before continuing up the beach.

A wave crashed over my head moments later, surrounding me in the dark water. A scream escaped my voice as I felt something grab onto my ankle. I struggled against the grip, trying to push myself back to the surface. I could feel myself being dragged across the ocean floor. The current from the waves caused my to crash into multiple things until my head slammed into a rock. Everything around my started to calm down and the grip on my ankle was gone. I forced my eyes open once more time to see the only water around me now was red. Red with blood.

Michael

"Who was it?" Calum asked as I ended the call.

"Justin" I answered. "Where did Ashley go?"

"I don't know. I haven't seen her since you came up here" Calum responded.

I felt my heart skip a beat as my eyes scanned the ocean, searching for her.

"Something happened" I whispered.

"Michael, I'm sure she's-"

"Help me look. Something happened, I can just feel it" I replied in a shaky voice.

"Michael" Luke suddenly yelled. "Michael, hurry"

When I found where Luke was I saw him up to his knees in water. Tyler was right next to him, holding someone in his arms.

"What happened?" I yelled as I started to walk into the ocean.

"It's Ashley" Tyler said.

"Get her up to the beach" I ordered. I felt my heart speed up as I saw all the blood coming from the back of her head.
