CHAPTER TWO:
I can feel everyone's eyes on us.. we're the center of everyone's attention.
Harry's stupid green eyes were staring into my soul, he knows this is killing me. I can't even believe what's going on.
It's only been a couple seconds, but it feels like forever.
Before I know it, he pulls me in and hugs me like nothing even happened.
Obviously none of the boys know, so he can put on a show. I push him off and I can feel myself getting enraged. Before I knew what I was doing, I find myself slapping him in the face as hard as I possibly can and then my feet start running... and just keep running.
I don't even know where they're taking me, but as long as it's far away from Harry, I don't care.
After a short distance, I find myself along the beach. It's a private area behind someone's house, I don't really care if I'm allowed to be here or not.
I sit down where the waves are breaking, the water feels amazing against my body... I don't even care that I'm wearing my new dress. I sit here trying to figure out what just happened.
I can't believe Liam is in a band with that little bitch!
As pissed as I am.. I can't blame Liam, he didn't know. I mean after all he d-"Hey..." I hear a comforting voice interrupting my thoughts.
A hand rests on my shoulder, I can tell it's not Liam... or Harry.. but whoever it is, is sending chills down my body. I look up and see Niall standing above me.
"Are you okay?" He asks in the most sweetest voice.
I look past him, but I don't see anyone. "I'm... I'm okay." I say as he helps me up.
We walk a little farther away from the water and sit down.
"I-I'm so sorry about what happened... it's just"-"It's okay. You don't have to explain anything to me." He says cutting me off.
We sit there for a couple of moments in silence... but it wasn't awkward. We were just enjoying each other's company... company that I desperately needed.
After a few minutes, I can hear Liam yelling. I turn around and see him come towards us. "You okay, Ash? After what happened, me and Niall got worried and went looking for you..." He looks behind me and sees Niall, "...apparently he found you first."
I chuckled at his words and look over at Niall, who was blushing slightly. When he noticed I was looking, he turned away so that I wouldn't see.
Liam takes a seat beside us and immediately cuts to the chase, "So um, what was that about?"
I honestly don't even know where to begin.
"I'll give you guys some space... If you need me, I'll be in the water." Niall strips his clothes off until he's down in his underwear and then jumped into the water. For such a shy boy, that kind of surprised me.
I watch him go under and then come back up as he gasps for air. He flips his wet hair out of his face and then turns facing me with a smile... I swear for a second I could feel my heart skip a beat.
I get pulled back to reality when Liam grabs my arm, "You can tell me anything. Honestly are you okay?" The sun reflects in his big, puppy dog eyes and the sense of safety is there.
"Liam, I'm sorry I reacted that way.. but..." I start to get emotional and he pulls me close to him, "Remember after my fourteenth birthday and I had to live with my dad?" His eyes are focused on me.
"Well, that boy I told you about... the one that.. that I was in love with.. and then he cheated on me.. that was... that was Harry!" I start bawling my eyes out as every single emotion possible hits me at once.
He wipes away the tears, but they keep falling. "I'm so sorry babe, I didn't real"-"It's okay. You didn't know." I cut him off sounding a little more bitter than I meant too.
A few moments pass, and I'm able to pull myself together.
"We've been looking for you guys!" An unfamiliar voice yells from a distance. I look behind me and see the rest of the boys coming towards us.
"Where's Niall?" Louis asked. I point to the waves he swam out farther than before.
I look back at the boys and they're already half naked... I forgot how much of an amazing body Harry had. I notice him smiling at me... he totally just saw me check him out, damn it. My blushed cheeks turn away so no one else will notice.
Louis is the first of them to follow Niall, Zayn next.
"Come on!" Liam rips his shirt off, showing off his amazing body. I can feel the drool forming from being around multiple hot guys... I feel weird being the only girl, but I know nothing will happen with my dad around... I mean Liam.
"You coming, guys?" I hear one of them hollering from a distance at me and Harry.
I look over at Harry who is left standing in his underwear. I know he's waiting for me, but I want him to just leave... like he did before.
Thank God I wore cute undergarments today.. I slip my shoes off and my dress, revealing my favorite Victoria Secret bra and underwear.
I can feel his eyes on me, making me feel slightly weird.
"You look so hot." Harry says quietly fixing his eyes more intensely on my body. It's been a while since he's seen me like this.. and I'd have to say, I'm much more toned and developed since last time.
"I know." I say cocky, pushing him out of the way. I run away from him and get into the water, going towards the others.
As I get in the water, I automatically get knocked down. The waves are intense.. the sky is grey and cloudy, I guess it's about to storm. I struggle as I get back up.
After swimming through rough waves, I finally reach everyone... Harry included. I guess he passed me when I fell.
I look towards Niall and I guess someone said or did something that he found funny... he's laughing hysterically. His laugh is so cute and contagious because I found myself laughing a little.
A small wave catches me off guard and salt water instantly fills my mouth.
"Here comes a big one!" One of the boys yells out, but it was too late. As soon as I opened my eyes from the last wave, a huge wave crashes over, causing me to go under.
Salt water fills my lungs. I try to reach the surface... but I keep getting tossed from the waves.
My chest starts to burn and I can't breathe. As hard as I try to find the surface, I just can't reach it.
My body keeps moving rapidly but I can't see anything, after a few quick moments, absolutely everything goes black.
