"I love Miami," Grayson says as he stretches his arms above his head, tensing every muscle in his body. we both lay on the hot sand, sun bathing and enjoying the sun. I look over to him, seeing his eyes closed and a slight smile on his face. 

"how long are you staying then?" I knew I had to bring it up at some point. as much as I wanted him to stay, I knew he had to go. "Well, me and E are ahead of schedule on videos. so I have all the time in the world for you" he tilts his head towards me and smirks, shielding his eyes from the sun. I blush in excitement at his words. I know he can't stay forever, but I'm so excited.

"you checked Twitter at all? you know, after putting a picture of me on your snapchat?" I smirk and put my head back again, shutting my eyes and facing the sun. "Nah, they can say what they want. they don't see you how I do" I can hear in his voice that he is smiling, making me do the same. 

"they're already in a big enough frenzy over E and Emma, let alone me and you. and you're way prettier. imagine what they're gonna say" I hear him stand up, but don't bother opening my eyes until he stands in the way of the sun, putting me in the shade "oi, move. you know how pale I am." he bends down and picks me up throwing me over his shoulder. 

I kick and scream, giggling the whole time. "Gray!" 

"no, you're coming in whether you like it or not!" I feel him begin to pick up his pace and run towards the ocean. before I knew it, he threw me off of his shoulder and into the bitter water. "you're such a dick!" I squeal smoothing my hair back off of my face 

"you really wanna start with me?" he smirks and swims closer to me, picking me up. I wrap my legs around his waist and my arms around his neck. he gives me a quick peck on the lips before saying "hold your breath". 

he inhales deeply and submerges us both in the water. I was so used to the seawater that I could open my eyes, even with the salt. I lean in and kiss him again, more passionately and intense than the one before. he quickly brings us both up and looks me straight in the eyes as if he was shocked that I kissed him. 

"what's wrong?" I say, kinda worried that I did something wrong "I just I..." he pauses. his shocked face turns into a loving one as a small smile begins to appear "I l-love it here..." he grins widely and spins me around, splashing water everywhere. he places me gently back on my feet. 

"can we go back in now?" I ask with pleading tones in my voice, he nods his head and takes me by the hand, walking me back to shore. I run up to the top of the beach and grab my phone, turning around and taking a picture of the perfectly toned, tanned Grayson

"Wow," I say, letting out a breath that I didn't even know I was holding in, "what's wrong precious?" 

as if he didn't know he was perfect...

"nothing," I say grinning, holding my phone to my chest and spinning around so that he couldn't see me. "god, you're so shit as lying" he laughs and lays down in front of me. I sit down crisscross in front of him and just stare. I lay down on my stomach with my head next to his, running my hands through his hair.

"Okay, ready to go gorgeous?" he stands up and shakes his towel, trying to get off al the sand. I nod and grab my bag, flinging it over my shoulder. 

we walk up the beach until some girls stop us. "oh my god Grayson!" they squeal, running over to us and throwing themselves at him. he smiles brightly, I know how much he loves meeting fans. "Rosie!" one of them shouts running over to me as well, hugging me tightly. "hi!" I say. even though I have some fans, I don't get people coming up to me like the twins do 

"can we get a picture please?" Gray nods his head and so do I. one of the girls asks a passer-by to take a photo of us. Me and Grayson stand in the middle with them either side and smile.

"it was so nice to meet you guys!" Grayson calls as we walk away. it was about 5 pm now, we managed to stay there all day. walking away, I still had a huge smile plastered on my face. it's so nice actually being noticed. I know I probably wouldn't have been if Gray wasn't there, but it's still nice. 

we walk slowly back up to the apartment. I was so tired after today. no matter how relaxed I am, the beach always whacks me out. I fumble around in my bag for my keys before unlocking the door and basically falling in. we dump all of our bags in the doorway.

"ugh I'm so tiredddd," I say dragon out the 'd'. Grayson giggles at me and follows me in. "want me to cook something or get take out?" 

"let's just get take out, can't be bothered to cook. I've been up since yesterday morning" oh shit yeah... my poor baby

"I'm just gonna go call E." he walks out picking up his phone and strolling into my bedroom

(Grayson's P.o.v.)

I walk into Rosie's room and dial Ethan's number, shutting the door behind me. it rings like 3 times before he picks up

"hey, man. sorry, I didn't call when I got here, I've been so busy." I flop onto Ro's bed, staring at the ceiling and holding the phone to my ear.

"no problem bro, we all set for tomorrow?"  by the sound of his voice, it seemed as if he hadn't slept. 

"yeah of course. I'm gonna take her to breakfast first thing and then you get here like 10 right?" I try to talk as quietly as possible, making sure she doesn't hear me 

"just a bit before yeah. but as soon as we get in, we will set up the balloons and banners." I nod along, even though he can't see me

"so you're not gonna tell her we know it's her birthday til she gets home?"

"she doesn't know anything, or that anyone coming. she doesn't normally celebrate her birthday, but I managed to convince Ella to tell me" I smile, proudly at my plan to make my girls birthday as special as possible. 

I just hope she loves it.
