Chapter 3

The plane journey didn't feel it took that long but in all fairness me and Harry slept all the way. We woke up as the plane landed collected our luggage and walked to our car we hired and drove the house. We arrived moments later to a beautiful white house which sat opened out onto a lovely clear private beach. The look on everyone's face was amazing, they couldn't believe my family owned this and we were going to stay here for a month. We stepped out the car got our suitcases and walked to the entrance of the house.

'This is yours?' Niall asked in astonishment. I never seen Niall astonished at something other than food in my life.

I laughed, 'yes, yes it is, like it?'

'Yes, it's beautiful!' Ali declared. I drew the key from the house from my neck which was on a necklace around my neck; I unlocked it and opened the door.

'Effective.' Claimed Ali

'I know, it's either that or I lose it,' I answered. I stepped into the house with everyone else following. 'Right, rooms then, I'm having the biggest room with the sign saying Lyds' room because, it is originally mine anyway, so all you lot need to do bugsy them all, they are roughly the same size.' As soon as I finished everyone rushed up stairs to get the bedrooms. I walked behind getting excited about the holiday we are going to have.

I reached my room and started to unpack. I was half way through when someone knocked at my door. 'Come in.' I called, Bexy walked in a sat on my bed.

'I'm sorry.' She started. I knew what she was talking about.

'It's okay I guess, just miffed that you two didn't tell me, you two are meant to be like my family, shouldn't I have been an exception.' I admitted.

'We did want to but, we wanted to tell with everyone around.' I stood up and walked over to the bed and sat down next to her, I admired the best friend bracelet that she gave me for my 16th, it was identical to hers. Another knock came from the door.

'Come in,' I called again. Louis entered; he looked a bit awkward as he stepped in, closed the door and stood there.

'You two talking about me and Bex?' he asked gloomily.

'Yeah, I'm a bit upset how you two didn't think I was an exception.' I said miffed. 'But I don't wanna be upset for this holiday so I'm letting it slide.' I looked up and smiled and them.

'Everyone's finished unpacking and are exploring the house,'

'Okay Louis, I'm nearly done here so I'll meet you lot outside by the pool,'

'A pool! Can this place get any better?' Bexy exclaimed jumping up and running to her room. Louis came and sat next to me giving me a hug.

'Do you forgive me?' He asked nervously.

'Hmmm.' was my reply.

'Oh come on Lyds you and me both know you crap at being in moods with me.' He smiled and winked. I looked at him and gave up.

'Ughhh! Why do you always win?' I groaned he laughed.

'It's cause I'm amazing,' he winked, 'right I'm going downstairs to look at this amazing pool, you alright?' He asked. Bending down rubbing his hand on my back.

'Yeah I'm fine you go ahead.' I smiled. He hurried off out of the door. A few minutes later I came down to the pool; all the boys were in the swimming pool playing volley ball and the girlies was sun bathing.

'Pass to me Liam!' Zayn called.

'Hey!' Beth called. She shot up from her sun bed and threw her hands out in anger of the foolishness from Liam.

'Sorry Beth!' he shouted, with his hands behind his head. She chucked the ball back to them and wiped the water from her stomach.

'That was a terrible shot you need to work on your aim.' She joked throwing the ball back to him and went back to sunbathing. I walked along to the empty sunbed at the end and set my stuff down. I sat down and looked out onto the beautiful view ahead of us. A month with a private pool, house and beach! Wow! I was in the middle of day dreaming when something bounced on my head. I quickly shot out of my day dream and looked down to find a volley ball bounce up and down next to me; I picked it up and look for the person that through it. All the boys pointed at Harry but he just stood there blaming Louis.

'It was Harry, all Harry,' They panicked, I glared down at Harry and he dropped his hands behind his head ruffling his hair, why do boys always do that when they get blamed for something I thought throwing the ball back.

'As much fun as it is seeing people get hit in the face with the ball I'm off to the beach,' Bazza (Bailey) stated as she got up from the sun bed gathering her stuff up.

'Me too, would it alright if I tag along with you Baz?' Liam asked as he tried to climb out of the pool subtly but failed as Niall sneakily came over and pulled him back in. Bailey laughed and picked up her stuff and walked inside.

'Thanks Niall,' He turned round giving him a sarcastic look.

'You're welcome, I gonna come too I need to look around for any good restaurants,' Liam looked at him a hit him over the head. Niall rubbed his head and got out as they rushed to the doors.

I looked at the other girls, they looked like they were getting bored and I knew Bex very well, I knew that she would wanna spend the first day of the holiday with Louis for a 'holiday romance' which she believed in. I tapped her on the back she jumped and looked up.

'Go.' I whispered.

'What?' She asked confused.

'Go with Louis to the beach or something, I know you two want to you been blabbing it to me ever since we got here!'

'Are you sure I don't want you to feel left out,'

'No, it's fine, go now hurry otherwise I'll have to pour water all down you,' I insisted pulling her off. She gave me a hug gathered her stuff and called Louis to go for a wander-bout with her.

'Does anyone else want to leave as well then?' Harry asked sarcastically throwing the ball behind him so it bounced and knocked over some glasses. He turned round with a cheeky grin on his face and put his finger to his lips and told everyone not to tell a soul.

'Urmmm, well Ali and I are gonna explore round for a bit,' Replied Zayn shyly, he hopped out of the pool and walked over to Ali and helped her up, they both wondered off hand in hand, I sighed staring at them.

'So I guess it's just us three then,' a husky voice appeared from nowhere, I looked down into the pool and there was Harry spinning the ball on his middle finger trying to keep it balanced.

'Yeah, lucky me,' Beth said sarcastically, she collected her things and wandered off inside.

'Where are you going?' I shouted.

'Well the suns getting to my head so I'm gonna have a lay down in my room, check Facebook, call my mum ect.' She said as she pulled an orange hairband out of her hair so it fell down naturally between her hips and ribcage, she swished it side to side like a model does in a shampoo advert. I looked over at Harry he stopped playing with the ball that he retrieved and stared, so I picked up a flip-flop and threw it at his head, he looked over at me and winked. I looked away and waved to Beth.

I plugged in my iPod and put on my favourite song I was dosing of in a sleep when I felt some wet hands pick me up, I screamed in shock and started to fidget to escape but the hands were holding tightly onto me. I quickly opened my eyes, the first thing I saw was Harry looking pleased with himself as he carried me over to the pool.

'HARRY! LET GO! IF YOU DON'T WANT TO DIE ON THE FIRST DAY OF YOUR HOLIDAY THEN DROP ME NOW!' I screamed hitting my fists on his chest.

'Oh, you want me to put you down?' He joked. 'Look down and you might be saying something a bit different.' I looked down and saw his feet standing on the edge of the pool; I sharply looked up at him in terror.

'You wouldn't?' I gasped linking my arms through his and held on for dear life.

'Oh, but I think we both know, I would,' he winked and jumped in with me holding onto him. Suddenly I couldn't breathe, I felt like I had been compressed down, I was sinking further and further down, I opened my eyes, the water quickly rushed into my eyes stinging them, I tried to swim up to the top but, I felt like I was going nowhere. I couldn't swim. I had never been taught how to, I was petrified of water when I was younger so I couldn't and as I got older I was fine with it but I never swam. I tried to gasp for oxygen but water was getting in the way, I must of swallowed about 3 gallons, I felt sick, my lungs were being crushed down, they ached for oxygen. I felt tired my eyes started to close. This was it I thought; this was the end of my life.
