Trusting Again (5SOS)

Ten

Harry

               I had to admit that Savannah was very attractive, but I had to keep the flirting to a minimum. I could tell that Michael really cared about her and that she didn’t just like him for the fame. If it had been any different I would have been trying to get her to be mine.

               After the interview we stopped at Nando’s to get something to eat. Niall flipped out when Savannah told us she had never eaten there. He was freaking out the whole ride home and Savannah just laughed when we told her.

               “This is soo good,” Savannah said with her mouth full.

               “I told you!” Niall yelled while the rest of us just laughed at them. We finished eating and cleaned up. Afterwards we were all sat around the television watching stupid shows.

               “Who wants to watch a scary movie?” Luke asked after a few really stupid shows passed. Everyone except Savannah cheered.

               “What’s wrong Jaysaliyn? Are you scared of horror movies?” I teased.

               She glared at me like she was planning my murder. “I’m not a big fan of them.”

               “Don’t worry, I won’t let anything hurt you,” Michael said as he pulled her into his lap. He wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on her shoulder. I got so jealous I had to fake needing to go in my room for a minute. I didn’t even know why I got jealous. She’s Michael’s girl and I’d have no hope of getting her anyway.

               While we waited for Harry to get back Niall put in Sleepy Hollow, the one with Johnny Depp in it. “Have you ever watched this?” he asked as he found a seat on the couch between Zayn and Louis.

               “I watched the last like half of it with my dad when I was little,” she said as she put her head against my chest.

               “I think that’s the first time you’ve mentioned your parents around us,” Calum pointed out.

               “Yeah, I don’t like to talk about them much,” she answered through gritted teeth. Harry came in just in time to notice everyone’s awkward moods. Lucky for us he didn’t seem to want an explanation. Niall hit play on the remote and we started the movie.

               Savannah seemed fine until things started popping up out of nowhere, and then she started hiding her face in my shirt and jumping. “Would you be still,” I laughed near her ear,” your bony little butt is digging into my leg.”

               “Sorry not sorry, the movie’s creeping me out.” Her eyes were locked on the screen and her hands were balled up in fists near her chin. By the time the movie ended her arms were wrapped around me with a death grip.

               “Well, Jay, what did you think?” Louis asked.

               “I think I’m definitely having nightmares tonight.” All the boys either laughed or awed at how cute she was being, but I knew she wasn’t kidding. Zayn showed us all to our rooms. Ash and Cal were rooming together and Luke and I were supposed to room together, but I talked him into sleeping in what was supposed to be Savannah’s room so she wouldn’t be alone. We changed into our pajamas with our backs facing each other.

               “Are you tired?” she asked after we were both changed. I had on a pair of sweats and that was it. She had on a pair of blue pajama shorts and a KISS shirt.

               “Not really, why?”

               “I just don’t really want to go to sleep yet. I know that if I try to go to sleep now I’ll just be seeing things from that movie.”

               I thought for a minute. ”Well, it is June,” I said,” What would you say about a midnight swim?”

               “I’d say what are you still doing in bed,” she laughed. We both found our swimmers and took turns changing. I was waiting by the side of the pool for her when I noticed Luke swimming around.

               “What are you doing out here, Hemmings?” I yelled. His head snapped to look at me as he fell backwards in the water.

               “We couldn’t sleep so we decided to go for a swim,” he said as he swam towards me.

               “We?” I looked closer and saw that everyone was in the pool. I mentally groaned for having this idea now.

               “Hey, I didn’t know the rest of you were out here,” Savannah said as she walked out.

               “Oh, hey Sava-,” Ash started before his jaw dropped. I can’t really say I blame him this time. She was wearing a black wraparound bikini top with neon splatter spots on it and girl’s swimming shorts that matched.

               “Hey babe,” I said loud enough for the boys to hear as I got up to hug her and hide her from the others. Everyone except for Zayn had wide eyes.

               “Why aren’t you swimming yet?”

               “I was waiting for my beautiful and may I say hot girlfriend because I thought we were going to be alone.”

               “The more the merrier right?” she shrugged before running and jumping into the pool. “Come on Mikey!” I jumped in and she laughed at my hair. “You look like an albino Cousin It,” she laughed.

               “Rawr!” I yelled as I tackled her under water. She looked at me with wide eyes. I just smiled and pulled her into an underwater kiss. We came up still kissing and I barely heard the guys gagging. The One Direction boys were all wolf whistling, except Harry. He was just glaring at me. If he’s jealous he can just screw off because Savannah’s mine.

               After swimming for a few hours we all got out and dried off. I changed back into my pajamas and headed for bed. Savannah was already asleep, snoring with her mouth open. I hugged her up and fell asleep almost instantly.
