Rylee's POV

I run back up to the rest of the group and grab Liam's hand "I gotta go back home with Emmy now but I'll see you tomorrow, okay Li?"

"Li?" Liam asks smirking at me.

"Oh, I... sorry I didn't mean to say that." I respond awkwardly, I can feel my face getting hot.

"No, I think that's really cute" He laughs and squeezes my hand.

I bite my lip to try to stop myself from squealing out of pure joy.

"Well, I need to go now and meet back up with Em." I say again, trying to hide my disappointment.

"Can't you stay with us a bit longer?" Liam says with the most adorable puppy dog eyes.

"I wish I could, but don't you guys have a meeting soon?" I respond sulkily.

"Ugh, yeah" He rolls his eyes. "I'm definitely picking you up on the way to the beach tomorrow though," he says grinning. "Oh, and I nearly forgot! Here's my number, text me your address and I'll be there at 9:30" he says as he hands me a piece of paper.

"Okay, I'll see you then," I say biting my lip again and leaning in to give him a quick hug before turning around.

"Bye Rylee!"

"See you tomorrow"

"Nice to meet you!"

The rest of the group call out as I walk away in the opposite direction.

"Bye guys! thanks for the great night" I respond grinning at them all.

Emmerson's POV

*New message*

Ry: Emmy where are you? I've been waiting in the car for 10 minutes!!

Damn. I had forgotten that Rylee was waiting for me. I was crouched behind a wall leading to inside the building. Zayn was crouched beside me panting. After the paparazzi had spotted us we just bolted and we didn't know where they were now.

"That was chaotic!" I say, laughing.

"I'm so sorry Emmy, they came out of nowhere!" Zayn says nervously. He doesn't need to apologise, the paparazzi are crazy. He was clearly just as shocked as I am.

"It's fine Zayn, besides you warned me about the paps, it was going to happen sooner or later." I respond I don't want him to feel like it's his fault and I definitely don't want to seem too shocked by what just happened. Sure, it was terrifying but Zayn can't know that so I have to play it down.

"Zayn, I wanna stay here, I really do but Rylee's messaging me like crazy. She's probably worried about me." I say, and as if right on queue, my phone rings.

"Okay, message me later, I wanna know more about this sandcastle. I'll see you tomorrow." he says with a laugh. 

I pull him into a quick hug. Wave goodbye, then run in the direction of where Ry and I had parked.

Louis' POV

We had been waiting in the car for fifteen minutes and I was getting worried about Zayn. Sure, he's run off a few times before but he usually tells me first, he's probably just lost track of time talking to Emmerson. He is so obviously into her it's almost painful to watch.

The car is silent, it's been a big day for us and we are all pretty shattered. I'm leaning into Haz as he has his arm draped around me and is holding my hand, playing with it absentmindedly.

"Don't worry love, he will be here soon. Relax." Harry says rubbing my hand in a circular pattern, trying to calm me down.

"I'm not worried Sun." I say, smiling and faking relaxation.
