"Ari, Aria, Hello????" I was jolted out of my thoughts to find everyone staring at me. "What?" I said and simply smiled.

"Well" JJ begins "There's three of us who have said we liked you, any thoughts?" Everything was quiet, they were all waiting for the answer.

"Who's the three?" I finally said.

"Me, Harry, and Simon, well he denied but he was blushing... and he's doing it again now." JJ says pointing at Simon beside me.

"Oi, fuck off" Simon says glaring playfully at JJ.

"So, Aria, any reactions, thoughts, comments?" Josh said leaning forward next to JJ.

"I think... You forgot someone" I say smiling at Chris

"Why are you l-looking at me?" Chris replies trying and failing to look casual.

"Your fans sent me your panel, you said some things about me." I say smirking at Chris's horrified face.

The boys were now rushing to grab their phones or looking over at others'. I let about 15 seconds pass before I heard the ooohing, and all of the conversations breaking out around me. I hear Chris trying to deny it but see he needs help so I join the conversation.

"Guys, you know you are all really nice but I think my comment is that I think Chris is also very funny and could maybe keep up with me in a soccer game." I say smiling at him. It takes him a moment then he smiles back at me before looking down.

"Is that a challenge Scott?" I hear Simon ask and find the sidemen staring at me.

"Absolutely, you have a video to film and I'm going to be part of this competition too." I say smirking "you're on Minter."

"What about the rest of us?" Tobi asks.

I turn to face him and simply smile "Any of you who want to take on the queen are welcome."

He smiles back and says "I'm in." I hear echoes from Harry, JJ, and CalFreezy, but the rest stay out of it.

"So it will be Chris, Simon, Tobi, Harry, JJ, Cal, and I. We should do a 1v1 tournament." I suggest already thinking about it.

"There's an odd number though." Chris says

"Don't worry, I'll get my friend Rose to join us." I say already texting Rose. She texts back saying she'll drive over tonight and we can book a hotel room together.

"Ok" Chris says. The others nod their agreement "Sounds like a plan Ari, I think I need to go back, I've got to rest before our tournament." Harry says starting to clean up. The others quickly follow suit and soon Rose shows up and we head to a Hilton near the pitch.

(At the hotel)

"Come on Rose, it will be nice" I was trying to convince Rose to go to the pool downstairs but she didn't want to.

"I don't have a suit" she protested

"Neither do I. I'm just wearing a bra and some underwear." I countered. Probably not the best idea but then who would actually be awake and at the pool at this time.

"Pleaseeee" I try again

"Fine" Rose says grabbing some from out of her bag. She gets changed then we take the elevator down.

"See" I say swinging the door open "There's no one-"

"Hello ladies" I hear behind us. I turn around and see Chris, the Cals and the Sidemen in the pool behind us.

"Hey guys" I say already moving to cover Rose's body with my own. She is already self conscious and I didn't think a bunch of guys looking at her in undergarments was a good thing.

"What are you doing here?" Chris asks smirking slightly

"Oh you know, just going for a swim." I say trying to think on my feet. I was fine but like I said, Rose may not be.

"Would you like to join us?" JJ asks.

"Maybe." I said, I really did not know how to help Rose.

"Come on in then." Simon says smiling.

"Ok" I reach behind me and grab Rose's hand to find it shaking slightly so I squeeze it lightly. We walk to the edge of the pool and I give Rose's hand another squeeze before jumping in right in front of them to splash them all. Once I surface I hear a small splash as Rose slips into the pool.

I turn back to look at her when I am suddenly tackled from behind. I get up and whip my head around, seeing that it's Chris I give him a small smile that promises payback.

Chris looks at my face and fakes looking scared, "Sorry Aria" he says still looking slightly worried.

"Well, you're dead" I hear JJ say. I just grinned wider and said "I would never do anything to hurt little Chrissy here would I?"the guys burst into laughter as Chris just gaped.

We all just hung out in the pool until I shouted "Water fight!" Turned around, grabbed Chris and pulled him under water. Apart from soccer I also swam so I could have stayed under for a while but Chris was laughing so we both surfaced.

We get up to see a full on battle going on. Rose had even joined in and was helping Freezy fight off Simon. I grinned until I was tackled again, this time by JJ. Laughing underwater I was planning on simply waiting until JJ ran out of air. I saw a body swim over to us and suddenly JJ was lifted off of me. I got up to see Chris lifting JJ in the air.

I fake fangirled and called Chris my hero falling dramatically on top of him sending both him and JJ tumbling.

"You'll never get the princess!" I hear and turn to see Cal, Cal, Josh, and Vik standing off against Simon, Harry, Ethan, and JJ who recently joined them. Tobi was in the middle trying to get everyone to get along until he was tackled by JJ. Rose was standing behind the Cal line looking like she was trying really hard not to laugh.

"I will join this battle" I bellow standing with Cal's line.

"That's not fair" Ethan says. "They have an extra person"

Chris walks up with Ethan and we lock eyes. "No they don't, I get the girl" he says trying to look serious.

Tobi gets up and walks between us and says "3, 2, 1, FIGHT!"

Everything goes crazy, I see Chris charge at me, while the others try to get past the line Cal set up. Chris goes to tackle me but I move out of the way at the last second and he just dives into water. I hear Rose scream and see Simon grab her and start tickling her.

I run towards Simon when he lets out a triumphant shout.

"I win!" He says, "we got the princess." I see Simon dip her and then kiss her on the cheek.

"Hey! You kids get out!"
