"Say Goodbye." The complete stranger said. He held up a knife to my throat. I was going to die now, this was the end. No one could save me and I was going.... going... gone. 

Life flashed across my face like a filmstrip. Pictures and clips of my past....

"BLAHHH! GET UP!" I got up and jumped out of my covers to see Liam there standing with a cookie. "You were talking in your sleep." He says. 

"What time is it?" I moan. "It's about eight already and you need to get up! We're going to go down to the beach and walk around the area. Louis is still sleeping, well GET UP!" Liam shouted the last two words. I walked to my clothes and picked up something similar to what I wore yesterday and ran to where there was some cereal on the table. I ate (with a spoon) and afterwards, waited for everyone to call me.

A few minutes later, Lottie came to call me and we told me that we were leaving now. The hotel address must’ve been leaked since there were lots of fans outside and we had to have bodyguards dragging us by the arm to get into the SUV we were going to be riding in. Liam sat at the front next to the driver while Lottie and I took the seat right in the corner and the other four just scattered themselves around the seats. Harry claimed two seats and Niall had to share with Louis, poor Niall. “Harry!” Niall whined. He had his legs on Zayn while sitting on Louis’s lap. “What?” Harry asked innocently. “You took my seat!” Niall says sadly. “No I didn’t.”

“You’re so fat you need two seats Harry.” Zayn teases, then instantly, Harry took his legs off one of the seats and let Niall sit there. “Problem sorted.” Zayn mutters so only some of us can hear.

I don’t know why but somehow they were all talking about different things while trying to prove each other wrong in some way. I just listened to their conversations while Lottie attempted to join a couple times and easily succeeded. I was more of a listening person than a talking person, this was who I was.

“Guys shut up already!” Liam says, the daddy of the group. “Yes Daddy.” They all chant. Liam rolls his eyes and puts it back to the road while quietly talking to the driver, Bob as we call him. I check my messages, there was one from Chloe.

Chloe: heyy eliza hows the trip? (:

Whoops, I hadn’t talked to her since we got here and she asked me to let her know ASAP. I just replied with:

She didn’t reply to the last message I sent her. When I looked outside, I could see the beach only so slightly. Everyone was getting excited and teaming up with each other and deciding who to throw in first out of all of us. I decided that it was more important for me to hide than try to push someone in. These boys were really strong and I didn’t have any chance against them in this water fight. I would be the furthest away from the water and the last one to get soaked – or that’s what I hoped for.

Everyone pushed each other eager to get out of the SUV and into the water. I made sure I had my swim suit like yesterday on inside me and that I was wearing some clothing I could easily get the water off. I shook off my shoes and ran straight towards Liam, tackling him to the ground and pulling his leg towards the water and BAM! He was wet. Zayn was trying to carry Niall into the water when one of their managers called from the little hut they were sitting in. “Don’t get injured boys.” He says. “We won’t!” Was their immediate answer, “and you girls too!” He added before it was too late. I smiled; he cared about all of us.

“OK Who’s next?” Liam asks us. I smirk and run away hoping I wouldn’t be chosen. We were playing a game, which you had to put one another in the water and get them soaked. I had a disadvantage and so did Lottie, we were smaller and less powerful/stronger than the other teenage boys, well obviously. Liam was probaly the most strongest out of the five and Niall probaly the smallest and easiest to carry into the water. I could only take down one person and that was Lottie and the only person Lottie could take down would be me, unfortunately. 

I turned around to see Liam scooping me up. I screamed once the water hit my face. "I hate you." I say, "I love you." - in  a brotherly way. "Actually, I do hate you." Liam just smirks and walkes to get the others.
