Lea's point of view......

I wake up to the warm sun. I twist around and stare into Louis's peaceful sleeping face. God he is so perfect. As if feeling my gaze, his eyes snap open.

"Morning beautiful" he says

"Morning" I reply. I sit up. The rest of the group are still asleep. Except for Pippa, who is talking on her phone. I can just make out what she's saying

"Yeah, I'm sure they'll be okay with it. Can to get off work? You don't have to, I mean.......really? That's great! See you then. Love you so much! Bye!" She snaps the cover shut, and realises I was listening

"Oh," she says sheepishly "sorry. Did I wake you?" I shake my head

"No, I was already up. So who were you calling" Pippa blushes

"Well, everyone here seems to have hooked up so" she glances at me "I invited my boyfriend to stay for a bit" my eyes pop

"You have a boyfriend?" I ask "who is it? What's his name?"

"His name's Justin" she says slowly "I'm a bit worried becaus ei know you guys hate him"

"We can't hate him" I laugh "we've never even met!"

"Yes you have. Well, not officially. He's a famous singer" it dawns on me

"No" I say flatly "not him. Come on Pippa! He's a jerk!"

"Only because you never gave him a chance! And the lads like him. They went in tour or something!"

"But it's-" I try to say "how can you like him? He's totally wring for you!" I probably shouldn't have said that. Pippa stands up

"What would you do if I said I hated Louis and thought he was wrong for you? Because that's what I thought when I first met him and now I've completely changed my mind. So why don't you give Justin a fair chance Lea?" She glares at me "he'll be here tomorrow afternoon. Deal with it!" With that, she sprints back to the house. I growl, And Louis comes over to me

"Care to explain?" He asks

"Pippa's invited her boyfriend over." Louis looks surprised

"What's so bad about that?"

"Her boyfriend is Justin Beiber"

"Cool!"

"Not cool Lou!" I say "he's a jerk! A player! He's totally wrong for Pippa but he's going to be here tomorrow!" Louis cups my face in his hands

"Calm down Lee Lee," he says gently "he's actually really nice. You've never really met him officially, so just.....give him a chance" I contemplate this, then nod my head

"Fine! But the second he acts like an idiot, he's out!"

Elizabeth's point of view........

"Help me! Help me!" My eyelids snap open. I sit up, looking for the source of the noise. I shake Liam awake

"What Liz?" He says groggily

"Can you hear that?" I say, listening

"HELP!" The sound is close. I stare down the beach. I can just make out a small figure. Running.

"Liam look!" I say, pointing "there's a girl running down the beach!" Liam locates the girl

"But what's she running from?" He asks. Suddenly, another, taller, male figure appears behind the girl

"Come back here!" He yells "you've got it coming now!" I stare at Liam

"Hey guys!" I hear Zayn's voice, and find that the shouts have roused the others "what's going on" the girl spots us

"Please! Help me!" We all stand up, and she runs to us. From a distance, she looks young, but now I see she is actually around my age, probably older.

"You have to help me!" She says, clutching onto my sleeve "he's going to kill me!" I glance at Zayn

"I'd get Alix out of here" I advise "this might turn into a fight" Zayn nods and ushers Alix away from the crowd and towards the house. I address the girl

"Hi," I say "I'm Elizabeth. What's your name?"

"Hazel" she whispers "Hazel Smith! That man there has been trying to catch me for years and he's finally found me and he's going to kill me!" She bursts into tears. The man reaches our group

"Thanks for catching Hazel" he says "she needs to be taught a lesson, that one!" Harry stands in front of Hazel

"I think you need to leave. Now" he says strongly. The man looks taken aback

"Who do you think you are?" He says "you can't keep me from her!"

"Hazel" Harry asks "do you want to go with him?" Hazel shakes her head quickly

"So there!" Harry tells the man "it's settled. Goodbye" I have to stop myself from laughing at the man's expression. I don't think anyone has ever seen to him like that before. He backs away a little

"I'll be back!" He says, sounding like a cliched movie "I'll get her." He starts walking back down the beach, throwing black looks over his shoulder. Hazel relaxes

"Thanks so much," she says "I don't know what I would have done without you!"

"Do you have parents? Or anyone we can contact?" Hazel flips her dark brown hair over her shoulder

"I don't know" she says "I've been running for a few years. I don't know where my parents are" I feel sorry for this girl, I really do.

"Well why don't you come inside and we'll decide what to do then, yeah?" Hazel nods eagerly, and the group tramps back to the house.

(Hey guys! Just so you know, Hazel Smith is based on my friend Izzy Keys!

Love Alix!)
