"It's so hot, it's not even enjoyable anymore," Ed moaned and flipped onto his back, changing position for about the hundredth time in the last fifteen minutes. I lazily lifted my head from where it had been resting on my arms to look at him, using my hand to shield my eyes from the burning sun.

"Ed...it's 28 degrees, it could be worse. Stop complaining and just enjoy the nice weather," I told him and rolled onto my back, crossing my arms behind my head.

"Hey, I'm not complaining," he protested. "It's just that I'm used to coldness. That heat is unbearable for me!"

"Wasn't it your idea to go to Spain?" I asked amused. "It's basically your fault that your suffering now."

He just muttered something under his breath and changed position again. Since Ed had a week off before his next tour in Australia, we had decided to take a mini holiday. Ed wanted to get away from the cloudy weather in England and spend his days off in another, warmer country. So he had rented a beautiful villa in Barcelona for the two of us that had its own pool in the yard, which had a pathway to the beach. The best thing about that beach was that it was some kind of privat beach. It was the perfect place to relax and forget about the outside world for a couple of days.

Today was our fourth day in Barcelona and we spent it exactly like the other three days: Chilling on our double sun lounger at the pool, only getting up to get something to eat or more sunscreen for Ed's sensitive skin. I really loved that warm weather but for Ed, it was simply too hot. He's been complaining about the heat since day one but still, it didn't keep him from joining me outside, wanting to spend as much time as possible together, before he had to go back on tour in three days.

"I hate summer," Ed grumbled.

"Oh come on, Teddy." I rolled over and scooted closer to him to wrap my arms around him. I planted a kiss on his bare shoulder before setting my chin on his colourful chest to look at him. "It's so beautiful here. I wish we could stay here forever. Just the two of us. Wouldn't that be great?"

Ed smiled down at me and brushed his fingers over my cheek. "It would be amazing. I'm glad you like it here," he said softly.

I smiled back and caught his hand to place a kiss on each of his fingertips, before sitting up. "Do you want to go down to the beach?" I asked.

"Yeah, of course," he nodded and got up from the sun lounger, stretching his arms over his head. I got up as well and grabbed his hand, tangling our fingers together. "Let's go."

We walked through the big yard, heading towards the gate on the other side. He opened it for me, being all gentlemanly. Hand in hand we walked down the pathway and pretty soon, the beautiful seaside came into view. A smile began to form on my lips as I felt the warm sand between my toes. A cool breeze brushed over my face and I closed my eyes. I loved the beach. The water, the sun, the peaceful silence there. A trip to the beach was all I needed to take a break from reality and our busy lives.

"Enjoying yourself, Darling?" Ed asked quietly as his arms slipped around my waist, pulling me back against his chest. I sighed as he pressed his lips to my neck before moving my hair aside to kiss a spot behind my ear.

"It's beautiful," I whispered and leaned back into him.

"Not as beautiful as you," he mumbled and went back to planting tender kisses on the back of my neck.

"Cheesy," I grinned, but still felt heat rushing to my cheeks, making them go pink. I turned around in his arms and placed both of my hands on the colourful ink on his chest. His crystal blue eyes were holding warmth as he lowered his head towards me to lightly touch his soft plumb lips to mine. I sighed into his mouth as he cupped my face gently in his hands, caressing my cheeks with both of his thumbs. My hands moved up his chest and to his shoulders, my fingers curling in the soft curls at the base of his neck.

We were kissing for a few minutes, forgetting everything around us, before I pulled away. I was a bit out of breath and let my forehead rest against his as we were both breathing heavily.

"That was nice," I whispered, once I've managed to catch my breath. Ed didn't say anything but just kept his eyes closed. The way he furrowed his blonde eyebrows told me that he was thinking about something.

"Hey, Alice?" he asked eventually and opened his eyes.

"Yeah?"

"I wanna take you dancing tonight."

"Dancing?" I asked sceptically. "I don't know, Teddy. I mean we're both horrible dancers."

"So what?" he chuckled and grabbed my hands, interlocking our fingers. "Come on, Alice, dance with me in Barcelona."

I still wasn't fully convinced but one look into his pleading puppy eyes was enough to persuade me. Okay," I gave in and squeezed his hands. "I'm gonna dance with you in Barcelona."

"Awesome!" Ed cheered and kissed my cheek before pointing towards the sea. "Wanna take a dip?"

I shook my head and playfully rolled my eyes. "No, Ed, I don't want to get my hair wet," I explained, biting my lip to hold back a grin. The look on Ed's face was priceless and I broke out into laughter, lightly hitting his chest. "I'm only joking, Teddy."

"Oh, come here!" Ed laughed and before I could escape he picked me up and flung me over his shoulder, making his way towards the water.

"Ed! Put me down!" I squealed.

"Put you down?" he asked mischievously as he headed into the water. "With pleasure, Honey."

"No, wait-"

He didn't let me finish but just lifted me of his shoulder and dropped me into the cold water. I instantly resurfaced and shoot to my feet. I glared at Ed who was laughing at me, clutching his stomach. "You're cute when you're angry."

"I'm so gonna kill you!"

"You've gotta catch me first!" he shouted, then darted off towards the beach, with me right behind him.
