Chapter 28

I felt myself being shaken awake as Liam's voice said softly, "Meg, get up." I groaned and flipped over, burying my head in the pillow. Liam laughed, and suddenly I felt both Liam and Louis pick me up and carry me downstairs. I struggled and flailed, but their grip on me tightened as they laughed at my feeble attempts to escape.

"Wanna go catch some waves today?" Liam asked everyone as we finished eating breakfast. We all agreed, and I walked over to the sink to clean the dirty dishes. We had made waffles, and the plates were covered in whipped cream, syrup, and strawberry juice. As I began washing the plates, someone came next to me and began helping me clean the plates. "So Megan, how're you liking this vacation so far?" It was Harry. I smiled and said, "I'm really enjoying it." Harry smiled down at me, his eyes twinkling in excitement. "Good. I'm glad you are." As I began putting some plates away, Harry spoke again. "Have you ever been surfing?" I laughed and replied, "Yeah!" Harry looked at me with doubt. I laughed and added, "You can go ask Lo-" Before I could finish my sentence, Harry was already screaming for Louis. Lou ran down the steps, and he skidded to a stop in the kitchen, sliding on his socks.

"Can Megan surf?" Harry asked. Louis smiled and replied, "Yeah. She's pretty good." I smiled at Harry, poking him in the arm and chiming, "Told you so." As we finished the dishes, I ran upstairs and got changed into my bathing suit and I grabbed my surfboard. I walked along the sandy path to the beach, and I already saw Liam and Zayn there, setting up some towels. I pushed my surfboard into the sand and began helping them. "Thanks!" Zayn said, and I laughed and said, "Welcome."

"When will there be a wave?!" Liam whined impatiently. Liam, Louis and I had been sitting on our surfboards, waiting for a wave to come in. "You guys notice that in the Carribean, there's no wind to produce waves, right?" I smirked, trying to contain a laugh as Liam combed his hands through his brown locks. "Idiot." He muttered, obviously to himself. As we got out of the water, I was quick to put a towel around my legs.

As I began walking back to the house, I heard running footsteps behind me. "Hi Lou." I said, smiling. "How'd you know it was me?" He asked, and I smirked. "I dunno... Lucky guess." Louis walked in pace next to me, and as we approached the house, Louis shut the door and looked me in the eyes.

"I saw them."
