The truck came to a halt after forty-five minutes on the road.
Bloom unfastened her seat belt quickly, she was too excited to let a minute pass.

Zayn grabbed her arm when she was about to open the door.

"You have thirty minutes," Zayn told her and pulled his hand away.

"Okay, whatever."
Bloom grumbled and came out of the car.

"I think the word is 'thank you'" he yelled at her retreating frame.

Bloom removed her shoes and spread her arms as she inhaled the air around her.
She ran as the waves in the water pushed toward her. She giggled and ran back like a toddler playing with water for the first time. She kicked her feet in the water screaming in joy.

"I'm going for a swim."
Bloom said and turned to look at Zayn. She found him sitting on the ground, staring at her. The expression on his face was hard to read, he looked away and drew something on the sand.

"Go ahead, I'm not stopping you but if you start drowning don't expect me to come to your rescue."

"I can swim, West, I won't need your help. Could you turn around or close your eyes? I wanna take my clothes off."

"No," he said looking up at her, he sat back and watched.
She gave him a deadpan look.

"You're really not gonna look away?"
She inquired.

"Yeah and is not like you're gonna cast a spell to make me go blind."He smiled.

"You're despicable, " she sighed.

She turned around and took her clothes off leaving her panties and bra on. She could feel his eyes on her.

"At least, stop looking," she said looking over her shoulder at him.

"I have seen better, ten minutes have gone by, you better hurry."

She shook her at his words and looked away. She didn't want her bra to get wet, so she decided to remove it. She took a glance at him he was too busy with his phone to notice what she was about to do.

She took it off quickly and rushed into the water. The cold water current gave her goosebumps but soon her body adapted to the temperature. She dived in making sure the water was at her shoulder level.

She stayed in the water for a while swimming and just playing around in the water with her feet.

"You're missing out, you don't wanna swim?"
Bloom asked as she moved her arms in a circle in the water.

"I can't swim, don't you remember?"
He asked looking up to see the expression on her face.

"Remember what? I barely know you," she laughed as she did a backstroke.

"Forget it," he dismissed, looking at the dark sky that mingled with the stars.

"Come on West, you can stay where the water isn't deep."
She whined.

"I'm fine here, fifteen minutes left."
He informed her.

"You're no fun," she muttered with a sigh.
She went under the water and swam for a while before coming up for air. She brushed her wet hair back and tried to take a step but her toe collided with a stone.

"Ouch!" she cried out.

"What happened? Are you okay?"
Zayn put his phone away quickly and stood up.

"I think I hit my toe on something, a stone I think," she said and winced at the pain.

"Get out of the water."
Zayn demanded, stepping closer to the waterfront.
