*Niall*

"Oh my God. I am so sorry. I-I. Are you okay?" I stammered, rushing to hold her hands and pick her up.

"Niall, Sorry. You're fine. I was being stupid and wasn't looking where I was going." She said. I nodded, even though I felt guilty. I would be the one to push someone down accidentally.

"I just came this way to see who's rooms are next to mine. This was one yours?"

"Yes, and you're in the room next to mine?" I asked.

Instantly regretting the question, she broke my thoughts by answering anyway.

She nodded, a smile tugging at her lips. "Yes."

I smiled back, enjoying the fact that I could be close to her, having casual conversation without being nervous like I thought I would have been.

I haven't seen her in a while, but it was impossible to forget her charming nature. She definitely was sweet.

"I'll see you around, yeah?" She asked, breaking the silence that I didn't even know existed.

This was more awkward that it should be.

I nodded quickly, as a form of stalling and not replying.

She nodded also, walking down the hall and went somewhere downstairs.

It was hilarious how she sounded so much like Liam but in a girl voice. Ill have to bring it up next time I see her, because she gets so mad about it.

After the encounter with Liz, I went to my room to unpack a little bit, because I knew most of my clothes would live their life on a bag on my floor.

It definitely wasn't the cutest thing..

*Liz*

( One Week Later )

"Want to look around the beach? Maybe even just around outside?" Zayn asked. He and I were the only ones in the kitchen.

After a small lunch, everyone else went up to their rooms or the living room to relax for a while, maybe unpack some more.

On the other hand, Zayn and I would much rather adventure.

I smiled and nodded. "Yeah. I'll text Liam or something."

I mean, you don't have to. We'll be fine, right? Not like we'll be kidnapped or aNything on the pier outside the house." He teased.

I stood up, trying to find my hightops which were right next to the huge window. "Hey, don't tease about kidnapping. That is a serious matter, Mr." I said shooting him a glance.

He put his hands up in defeat and slipped on his RayBans. "I'm very sorry Ms. Liz. Okay. Lets get out of here!"

The outside always seemed to amaze me everytime I looked at it. I've only ever been to salt water once, and I wasn't the biggest fan of it. Mostly because sharks are my worst fear.

Though it was beautiful, the rushing of the water and splashing when it hit rocks. The sand wasn't too hot, and the sun was glowing an orange and yellow glow.

"Thir really was a good idea. We could be out here until sunset, there's so much property here."

"You're right," He agreed. "Even if we don't get to it all tonight, we can do this tomorrow too."

It was peaceful and quiet, letting us dwell in the moment of the warm world around us.

*Liam*

"No! What do you mean you dont know where she is? Your room is right next to hers and you were just with her!" I yelled. I hated to yell at the boys but I had no idea where Liz went.

"I dunno mate! Okay? Sorry. But she was with Zayn. Z-A-Y-N. Not me." Niall snapped.

"ZAYN? But he's not here either." I said.

Niall shrugged continued eating his sandwich that he had proudly made himself I can assume.

"They went down by the beach!" Louis yelled. Thank God someone knew, but then I stopped and  thought about it for a second.

"No way. We would have at least heard them leave." I said, shaking my head. It was possible though.

"Suit yourself. But that's where I think they went." Lou said.

Later, It's been about 4 hours and Liz and Zayn still weren't back yet. What the hell?

I tried one more time, "Boys, are you sure  you dont know where Liz and Zayn are?" I asked.

"No." Was the response from all of them.

"Call her." Harry said, not even looking up. I am starting to feel like I'm the only one that's freaking out about this. Though I actually really am the only one.

I was about to call her when I saw her phone sitting on the kitchen table.

Of course.

I knew that would have been to easy. We aren't living in a fictional novel after all.

*Nial*

I walked into my room late that night. I wasn't very thrilled that Liz went out with Zayn. Wait, why do I care? I don't.

I did know where they went, I just didn't tell Liam because I was annoyed with his sudden outburst of becoming the babysitter.

I think that Liz and Zayn are old enough to handle themselves, but then again, they should have just told him where they were going.

I thought I heard something outside my window. It sounded like people, two of them.

As I went over to it I prayed that it wasn't fans. They'll find us here sooner or later but I was hopping for the later.

I just slightly peeked out the window and let out a breath. Good no fans.

I looked to see 2 people. That looked like teenagers, maybe a bit older.

Wait! It's Zayn and Liz! Well, I should be given credit for finding them..

I guess they just returned from where ever they were. So mature of Zayn to not tell anyone where he was going, but it was even worse because he took Liz with him.

Liam flipped out. Trust me, he was pissed at Z.

I watched for a little bit more. Until something happened that took me by complete surprise.

Zayn leaned in, pressing his lips to Liz's. They kissed for a short while and then pulled away. I couldn't see facial expressions or anything of that sort, but I decided I might as well call it a night.
