Blinded by Love

Swimming

Niall’s POV

“How long have we been under here?” CiCi complained.

“3 minutes.” I laughed. I thought Em was the ADHD one.

“I think Louis forgot about us.” Just then, someone grabbed our feet and pulled us out from under the bed.

She looked like she was about to scream, so I grabbed her hand to try to calm her down. I knew it was just Lou, Haz, and Zayn.

“Found you.” Harry smiled.

“Are we the first ones?” I asked.

“Yep!” Lou popped the “p”.

They went to find Liam and Em. Apparently, they hid in the shower so Zayn decided to turn it on. There were screams from the bathroom. They came out soaking. It was too funny. I couldn’t help myself.

“It’s our turn to count,” I informed the others.

They all ran to hide and we started counting.

“100!” we shouted.

We both looked at each other and nodded. We started walking down the hall, humming the Mission Impossible tune. We decided to check the closets first.

We found Liam and Em first.

“Come on guys.” They stepped out and decided they didn’t want to play anymore. They went into the living room and watched some TV.

Then we found Lou’s team in the hall closet.

“Aw… I’m so proud of you guys!” CiCi squealed.

“For what?” Harry asked, confused as always.

“You finally came out of the closet!” she smiled. We laughed so hard we were crying. Even the boys were laughing. We finally calmed down and went to join Liam and Em in the lounge.

Cierra’s POV

“You have a pool, right?” Harry asked, raising an eyebrow.

“Yeah.” I said slowly.

All the boys looked at each other and smiled. Crap. We can’t go swimming. At least I can’t. I wasn’t one of those girls who thought I was fat. I was in good shape. I was a model for crying aloud. It just wasn’t a good time. Let’s just say that Mother Nature isn’t very considerate.

“You guys can go. I don’t feel like it.” I said.

“I’ll stay in with you if you want.” Niall offered.

“No. It’s fine. Go ahead. Really.” I smiled. I didn’t want him to stay in with me because of my girl problems.

“Okay, love.” He smiled back

The boys didn’t have swimsuits so they just decided to swim in their shorts. I would dry them tonight and they could put them back on in the morning.

I was only 5’3” and Em was an inch taller than I was.

I decided to get a shower and get into some PJs. By the time I got out, everybody was inside. I went to grab my clothes but they weren’t there. I was going to kill them.

I wrapped the towel around me, and opened the door. I made my way to the living room. When I walked into sight, all their mouths fell open. The towel barely covered my butt.

“Where the hell are my clothes?” I growled.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about!” Harry smirked.

“Cut the crap, Harry. Now, give me my fucking clothes!” I spat. I wasn’t trying to be rude. It was the hormones.

“Someone’s PMSing!” Louis teased.

“Damn right I am! Now, I’m going to ask one more time. Tell me where my clothes are.” I tried to be calm.

“Why don’t you wear something else?” Zayn suggested.

“To be honest, you don’t have to wear anything at all.” Harry grinned. He was even more of a flirt in person.

Liam slapped him on the back of the head. I shot him a death glare. He finally gave me my sweats.

I stomped back to the room and pulled them on. I was about to walk out the door when I got a killer cramp. I screamed for Em.

“What the hell?” she asked.

“Cramp. Tylenol. Water. Now.” I instructed. Niall came and sat down next to me. He rubbed my back. I was curled up in a ball.

“You need a heat pack.” Harry suggested.

“How do you know all this stuff?” I asked. Not many guys know about girl stuff.

“Gemma.” He said simply.

Liam left to get a heat pack. Em came back with a Tylenol and a glass of water. I swallowed it down. Liam came back with heat pack and gave it to me. I placed it on my stomach.

“I’m going to sleep in here tonight guys.” They nodded.

“Do you want me to sleep with you?” Niall asked. His face turned into terror as he realized how wrong it sounded. I just laughed and nodded.

 I thought about the events of the day. How I got to meet my celebrity crush. How I kissed him. How he asked me out on a date. How did I manage to get so lucky? Niall wrapped his arms around my waist and pulled me into him. I fell asleep to the sound of his heartbeat.
