Falling...in love. (One Direction)

Chapter 5

Lily's P.O.V.

The sound my body made when it hit the water.

It was colder than I remembered. Then suddenly I hear another loud splash, and goosebumps filled my entire body.  No, not because it was cold, although that may have been part of it. But the other part was the fact that Harry just snuck up behind me and held me around the waist. He kept me warm and secure.

I went back to remember him pushing me off the waterfall. His hand touching my back.  Right in the middle giving me a little push.  Then memories started flooding in my head.  It was all starting to click.

Harry and I went to the same elementary school.  That's why he was so familiar.

I remembered it so clearly.  

Harry was my elementary school crush.  Of course I didn't know what love was then. But I "loved" Harry. He wouldn't talk to me much, and anytime he said just a word to me I'd go crazy.  I'll never forget the most vivid memory.  The day he was pushing me on the swings.  His little hand was firm on my little back. I would swing up..then every time I came back down his hand would touch my back.  I could hear the sound of his little voice singing...Isn't she lovely, Isn't she wonderful, Isn't she precious...

"Lily, are you okay? You've been staring at the waterfall for the past few minutes."  Harry asked concerned.

"Oh, yeah. I'm fine!" I said quickly. 

"What's on your mind babe?" Harry asked.

Babe....there's that word again. 

"We went to elementary school together, and.. I...uh, it's all coming back to me. You were my crush, I liked you so much. To the point I kept a diary about you.... But you didn't like me back." I said.

"Wait, Lily...Lily Howard?" Harry questioned.

"Yes, that's me. You remember?" I asked nervously.

"I remember everything, even that day I pushed you on the swing. Lily, I liked you so much. I was so nervous to talk to you though. I didn't know what to say.  Then I remember you moving away in 4th grade.  I was devastated." Harry said as his eyes twinkled off the water.  His face was showing this innocent expression.

I wrapped my arms around his neck. His went back around my waist.  I could feel the warmth coming off of his body.  He whispered in my ear...Isn't she lovely, isn't she wonderful. Isn't she precious..

"You really do remember!" I exclaimed.

"I wouldn't lie to you. Well we better get out of here now.  The sun will be setting in about an hour. Let's get you dressed a head back." Harry said with a small smile forming across his lips.

Harry's P.O.V.

This is unbelievable.  The girl I "loved" my elementary school years.  She's here. With me.

I helped Lily out of the water and we sat on the edge and dried off a bit.  I held her hand tightly as she rested her head on me.  A few of my curls flopped in her face every so often and i had to apologize.  I honestly don't think she minded it though.  

After she had dried I grabbed the clothes she was wearing.  I first threw her shirt over her head, then smoothed it out over her top half. I helped her put on her shorts after that.

I quickly threw on my clothes and we were ready to walk.  That's when I noticed the beautiful sunset. It sure was lovely, and I bet Lily was thinking the same.  We walked back to the bungalows holding hands.  

Once we got there we were greeted by the lads.

"Where have you two love birds been all day?" asked Liam.

"WHY ARE YOU GUYS WET...Harry...?!" Lou said then began laughing.

Oh Lou, don't say that in front of Lily.

I looked over at Lily and saw a smile across her face and she was giggling softly.

"It's alright, hahaha." Lily's sweet voice spoke.

"So you'll have to explain what you did all day guys!" Zayn said.

We all started a fire with a match the lads found in the bungalow.  We sat around the fire watching the sun slowly set. The sunset was beautiful, the water was beautiful, the island was beautiful...and most importantly Lily was beautiful. 

She sat there listening to each of the lads talk.  She was focused and her eyes were lit and the fire was making them glisten.  

"WE FOUND A BAJILLION COCONUTS TODAY." Niall screamed.

"And let me guess Niall, you drank every bit of the coconut juice." I said.

"Well of course Harry, there's no beer here. So I have to drink something." explained Niall.

"So Harry and Lily, what did you do today? Let me guess made out?!" said Lou.

"We had a lovely day." I said trying to avoid any details about our day.

After we talked a little longer, we all went back to the bungalows.  We left the smoke of the fire burning.  Maybe to alert Lily's father, or someone passing the island.  

"Hey Harry...Can i.. Can i stay with you tonight?" This soft, nervous voice whisperd to me.  I obviously knew who it was.

"Of course Lily."

All the boys went off to their bungalows and Lily and I went to mine.  After a few minutes we both got into bed.  I didn't want to scare her and be all over her at first so i tried my best to stay on the opposite side of the small bed. I even kept my boxers on. 

I looked over to her as she was laying on the oppisite side of the bed.  She lay there looking up at the straw roof.  I did the same and looked up at the roof.

Then BANG.
