33. "You would if the sex was good."

6. Go to a water park. Again, how old are you? Still afraid of a water slide?

"Alex, get the fuck out of bed!"

I groan out loud at Harry's screaming. He's been haunting me in my dreams all night, now he's waking me up as well.

"We're going to be late!"

Late? Late? I open my eyes to welcome the sun burning through the room and I look over to the alarm clock in the television. It's 6:45... which means in fifteen minutes we have to be at work. Without thinking anything through I storm to the door, unlocking to throw it open for Harry. He's fuming I can tell, holding a plastic bag, wearing his uniform. Staring at me with his mouth open.

Then I remember the clothes that Ava gave me, and what she made me wear underneath. Which is only panties. No bra.

"I'm trying really hard not to look at your boobs," Harry says with a hoarse voice. "But I'm clearly failing."

"Oh." I quickly cover up but the deed has been done. One of my boobs was hanging out of the loose fabric that shifted during all the tossing and turning in bed. I sigh deeply at my own stupidity then order Harry to turn around with my hands. He listens, thankfully and turns his back to me as I find my swimming suite and change into the polo and jeans shorts. Somehow I find my flip-flops under my bed and I'm done as I put my hair up in a bun.

"Ready," I breathe.

Harry is flustered to the max, but this time I'm not proud of it. He saw my boobs, god. What kind of person have I become?

We walk down towards the road, probably both red hot and too ashamed to open our mouths. He silently hands me a sandwich and I want to thank him but the words can't seem to leave my mouth.

The tower is guarded by Liam and Zayn who are both hanging in their hands, seemingly tired by the night they had.

"Thank god," Liam exclaims and stands up from his seat. "I need to get out of this room, come on Zayn."

Zayn gets up from his seat, he gives me a small smile and then leaves us alone. Liam stays behind gathering some stuff from his locker and finally looks at us. We're still standing awkwardly next to each other, eating from matching sandwiches. He raises his eyebrows then opens his mouth.

"What did you guys do?"

"Nothing," I blurt out to fast. "I just slept in."

"And then opened the door, half-naked," Harry adds.

My head snaps to Harry with my mouth hanging open. Liam just laughs. "Been there," he chuckles slamming his locker shut. "Thanks for that though Lexie, made me laugh."

"Tough night?" Harry asks finally moving from his spot to the front of the tower to read in the notebook.

"It was madness. So many girls and they all drool over Zayn. Why is he my buddy again? He's so quiet it is starting to freak me out."

"He's just shy about his English," I tell them feeling the need to stick up for Zayn.

"And he's your buddy because Zeno thinks you're the best lifeguard," Harry says rather grim.

Liam laughs at that, rolling his eyes. "Well tonight I sucked. I couldn't keep myself together with those irritating girls."

"Yet, you can around Rosie."

"Fuck off, Harry," Liam threatens but I see a smile on his face. At least he's smiling about her again.

"Did you find Rosie?" I ask him and his eyes dart to Harry. I roll my eyes because obviously we don't have secrets for each other.
