Right when it started to get really dark, we arrived at the park. Zayn and Liam were already there with a fire going already. Soon, we all gathered around the fire. Harry wrapped his arms around me while the boys were goofing off. Louis and Niall already told Liam and Zayn Harry's dare. I still didn't know. Now, they were about to tell Harry and I.

"Oh Harry! Aren't you lucky today?" Louis said sarcastically. Everyone giggled.

"Yes. Actually, I am." Harry turned towards me and looked in my eyes. His emerald green eyes just shone in the moonlight.

"Ugh! Not that way! Well anyways..your dare is..." Louis drifted, not continuing his sentence.

"What?" Harry said.

"Niall. You say." Louis exclaimed.

"We dare you to go skinny-dipping in the lake!" Niall said with a cheerful tone.

"Mmmm...what about all of you go skinny-dipping with me and whoever can stay the longest wins! Everyone else has to treat the winner like a king or queen." Harry winked at me.

My eyes widened. Darn. I'm the only girl.

Louis seemed please. "It's on!"

We neared the lake and the boys started stripping off their clothes. I still stood there reluctant to taking it off. Harry wrapped his arms around my waist in the dark.

"Come on Stephanie! No one can see you! Even Liam and Zayn are doing it!"

He started taking his jacket off me and lifting my tank top up slowly. I stopped his hands.

"I'll do it myself." I mumbled.

"Yay!" Harry kissed me on the cheek.

I slowly took off my clothes. Liam came by.

"It's okay. It'll be over before you know it." It's like he could see my uncomfortable face in the dark.

Zayn walked over now. Zayn and Liam held my hands as we started walking towards the lake.

A foot away. 7 inches. 2 inches. I was struck with FREEZING cold water.

We were in the lake for 10 minutes. I got used to it but it looked like everyone still hasn't. I started splashing water at everyone. That's when Zayn dashed out of the lake. I erupted with laughter. He quickly grabbed his clothes and ran behind a tree.

I started walking around in the lake when I felt someone tickle me from behind. I expected Harry but it was Louis! Man! That boy was comfortable and playful in any condition!

Louis started the game of tag by "accidently" tickling me. I ran towards Niall. I quickly tagged him and he was oblivious to what just happened.

Niall then chased Liam out of the lake.

"Ha!" Niall called. Liam stuck his tongue out while he too grabbed his clothes and ran behind a tree.

Niall still hasn't tagged anyone. He slowly crept behind Harry who was absent-mindedly staring at me. Of course though, I acted like I didn't notice while wrapping my arms around myself. Niall tapped his shoulder but it was more like a shove and Harry went underwater.

Harry came up, sprouting up like a plant. He hastily started swimming to Louis. Louis tried swimming away but he was too slow.

Louis unhappily pouted. "Hey Niall! The pizza we ordered is here!" Louis lied.

Niall sprinted out of the lake. I giggled until I noticed Louis discretely swimming towards me. Good thing I took several years of swimming lessons. I swam towards the middle of the lake. Louis stopped. He was probably scared. That's when he caught Harry.

I started staring at the stars because Harry and Louis were fooling around. That's when I had a flashback. I was 13 and I was with my boyfriend. Of course it wasn't serious or anything but he brought me to a field in the forrest near his house. We were laying side by side staring at the stars. He held my hand before he wrapped around warming me all around.

I stared back at the shore of the lake. Louis wasn't there. Harry was standing in the water studying my face. I swam towards him.

I met up with his face. I had to strike a deal. I was fed up with this bitter cold.

"Let's make a deal. If you walk out of the lake, then I'll go on a date with you." I offered.

"Hm...can I get a kiss with that too?" He smirked.

I thought about it for a while. "Fine." I muttered. "After we get out."

Harry quickly rushed out of the lake. I followed not far behind. We rushed and grabbed out clothes.

Not long later, everyone gathered around the fire. I sat between Niall and Harry. Zayn started skewing the marshmallows. Liam passed the chocolate. Louis distributed the graham crackers.

I was still shivering because my clothes were still damp. Harry wrapped his arm around me while his other hand was roasting a marshmallow. Right then, I kissed him. It was real and sweet. I heard "Oohs" coming around but I ignored them.

I drew myself away. Everyone put their s'mores together.

"That was fun guys. Thanks!" I said.

"No problem!" Louis chirped. All the boys smiled.

It was getting late. I stood up. Harry did too. I kissed him again. This time. It tasted like s'mores.

"You taste good." I giggled.

"Same to you." He smiled warmly.

All the boys walked me back to my flat. They all had somehow got my phone and put their number in. Maybe I was too distracted by Harry's eyes.

We reached my flat. "See you on our date tomorrow." Harry winked.

"Can't wait!" I exclaimed.

The boys left and I walked into my flat. I went to my room and fell on top of my bed. Last thing I remembered was thinking about the date tomorrow.
