"want me to let you down?" Noah asked as he was walking even deeper in the water.

"no!" i screamed, holding onto him even tighter than before.

the others were playing some game at the shore, while Bryce was filming.

"okay" Noah smirked and dropped me in the cold water.

"you're gonna pay for that!" i yelled as i started splashing water all over him.

he stood there with no reaction whatsoever so i stopped splashing water.

suddenly my eyes trailed off to his abs.

goddamn they're so defined

my eyes trailed back to his face, which was glowing in the sunlight - his hazel eyes showing a slight green.

wow

"nice view, huh?" Noah asked, chuckling.

"hm?" i asked, my face getting red from the embarrassment.

"wow you're really clueless aren't you?"

"i don't know what you're talking about" i answered sarcastically, crossing my arms.

"yo you guys wanna play beach volleyball?" Quinton asked, slightly running in the water so we could hear him.

"coming!" i yelled glancing one last time at Noah's eyes before running to the shore where the others were already split in two separate teams.

we decided who was going in which team.

i ended up in a team with Bryce, Addison, Quinton, Avani, Anthony and Blake, while Noah was in a team with Griffin, Kio, Charli, Dixie and Josh.

"i'm fucking sweaty, holy shit" Bryce exhaled.

i mean, he really was sweaty as hell.

"let's end it here" Kio suggested and everyone agreed.

(for those who wanna knowz the score was a tie dkdj)

"what ice cream flavors y'all want?" Josh asked, knowing everyone would want an ice cream.

i mean who the hell wouldn't?!

"vanilla" "chocolate" "mint" "strawberry" "lemon" - everyone told him the flavors they wanted.

"i can help you carry them" i suggested.

"i can too, we're kinda a lot over here" Noah joined.

"okay thanks" Josh smiled.

we walked to the little ice cream truck and ordered all of the ice creams. for some reason i kept glancing at Noah. his face was slightly covered in sweat, the sun making it glow.

snap out of it, Bella

we payed for the ice cream and walked back to the group, who were all covered in sweat.

"how about we go cliff jumping after?" Bryce asked.

"sure" "hell yeah" "yes!" "okay i'm down" - all of us answered.

climbing the medium-sized cliff wasn't as hard as i thought, since it already had steps built into it, but getting over the fear of falling to my death was harder than anything.

"are you gonna jump or what?" Anthony asked, soaked in water.

i gulped at the thought of me falling to my death.

"we can jump together if you want" Noah said, walking close to the edge.

i inhaled and gave in as Noah gently took my hand looking at me.

we walked to the edge and jumped down, the water hitting my body. it was a good feeling though. i swam up to the surface and inhaled air.

"not so bad, huh?" Noah asked chuckling.

i nodded, as i was barely able to speak at that moment.
