After the meet and greet I slipped off to my room while the others were planning to go to the pool, I put away my camera and then jumped into my bed. I grabbed my phone and looked at Jack's instagram, you photo had about 300k likes which was ridiculous, I looked through the most recent comments and people were saying we should be a couple, it was a little overwhemling.

I then looked up the hashtag #Jola to see it had been posted 50,000 times.. IN A DAY! I looked through and saw fan edits of the two pictures of me and Jack posted but lots of variations, I then saw a different picture, one I hadn't seen before, I opened up the picture to see that the girls I met earlier must have caught me and Jack on camera when he put his head against mine to look at my pictures, we looked really intimate, the caption was "Jola must be real just look at them" once I had saw that I saw it everywhere, people were reposting the photo and tagging me in it.

Just then I had a knock on the door, I walked over and opened it to be welcomed by all of the guys and mahogany in their swimwear, they had all crowded at my door.

Taylor: You coming down to the pool?

Me: Uh yeah I'll be down in a second, just need to get changed

Taylor: Okay we'll see you down there

They walked off and I closed the door, I changed into my binki which was a black one from triangl swimwear, it was my favourite, I was a little body conscious so I put on a floral kimiono to walk down in, I wasn't even sure whether I could bring myself to be just in a bikini infront of all those boys, Mahogany was so confident.

I walked down to the pool and saw the boy's wrestling and jumping into the pool. I sat down next to Mahogany on a sun lounger.

Mahogany: You not going in?

Me: Nah.. I'm not that happy with my body so I'll just watch haha

Mahogany: Seriously? but you're a dancer you have an amazing body Lola

Me: I don't think so

Mahogany: Come one, jump in with me

Me: Mahogany.. I-

Mahogany grabs my hand and walks to the far side of the pool away from the boys, she squeezed my hand and smiled at me, I really felt like we were becoming good friends, I took off my kimono and jumped in with her, when we came to the waters surface we laughed and the boys swam over, we all messed about and Jack kept pushing me and lifting me up and throwing me around the pool, it was so flirty. Jack had me on his back walking around the pool when a few girls we near the hotel's fence, we ignored it and carried on messing about, soon there was a huge croud, these boys can attract a swarm of girls! We all went inside.

Sure enough there were new pictures of me and Jack in the pool already on instagram and twitter, it was insane how quick these girls were. I fell asleep pretty early, I was so tired from the day.

---------------------------------

I woke up again to Jc.

Me: please for the love of God don't scream at me again (mumbled half asleep)

Jc: No don't worry, just everyone is at breakfast

Me: Not hungry

Jc: Alright but we're leaving for Houston in 2 hours so get yo booty out of bed

Jc left and I looked around the room, I hadn't even unpacked my suitcase because I knew we weren't staying at places longer than a day, I changed into a basketball jersey and little black shorts and white converse as we were travelling today

I put all my stuff in my suitcase and zipped it up. I walked down to breakfast but instead I went outside, something caught my eye on the way down to the pool yesterday and I wanted to go see if i was right.. I was, a basketball court. Ever since I was young my brother played basketball, he taught me a few things but I always wanted to get more into the sport, it was my favourite by far but I wasn't that good at it. I walked into the court and picked up the basketball in the corner, I started bouncing it to remember how it felt, I hadn't played in years.

I took a shot and it just bounced off the board, too high, I tried again and it bounced off the ring.

Me: Fuck sake (under my breath)

Jack G: Not bad

I turned around to see Jack standing there, hair messy and unperfect.. he still looked perfect though. I turned back around to hide my smile, I didn't want him knowing how happy I was to be alone with him, or with him at all.

He walked up to me and took the ball off me while I was dribbling.

Me: Hey no tricks, I'm an amature

Jack G: Yeah no kidding (jokingly)

Me: You're not allowed to play with me, you're too good 

I watched him tactically bounce the ball inbetween his legs and around his body making it look effortless.

Me: Showoff

Jack G: You're just jealous, here take a shot

He threw the basketball at me and I rolled my eyes, I threw and it bounced off the ring again, I sighed indicating my frustation, Jack walked up to me shaking his head

Jack G: No you're throwing it wrong, here let me show you.

He stood behind me and put his hands on my arms to guide me, he simulated some throwing techniques, he was so close to him, I could feel his heat on my back and the way he was taking control was really attractive, after a few minutes of himn demonstrating how he throws and gets hoops he passed the ball to me. I threw and it went in. I flew my hand above my head and celebrated, Jack did the same, he ran towards me and lifted me up bouncing and laughing.

Me: OMG YESSS

Jack G: YOU DID IT I'M SO PROUD

He put me down and we just stared at eachother, we were silent and we stopped smiling, his eyes flicked from my eyes to my lips and back again, it was a perfect time to lean in and kiss him but Nash was shouting in the distance.

Nash: Our ride is coming in half an hour sort your shit!

We walked back inside, avoiding the brief romantic moment we had together
