Chapter 6
After a great day at the beach they headed back to the hotel to get ready to go out for the evening.
"Everyone back down here by 7 please. I think we're going to go for a Chinese tonight. Is there anyone who really doesn't like Chinese?" Eddie said
Noone said anything or put their hand up so they presumed that everyone was happy with Chinese. Everyone headed back up to their rooms to have a shower and get changed.
"Do you want to go in the shower first tonight Eddie?" Rachel asked
"No it's alright, you can go. You need longer to get ready than me" Eddie teased
"Oi, cheeky"
Rachel had a quick shower and then came out so that Eddie could get in. She was just about to get changed when there was a knock at the door. She opened it to find Janeece stood there.
"Hi Janeece, everything alright?" Rachel asked
"I'm not feeling very well miss" Janeece informed her
"Why don't you come in a sec" Rachel said as she was only wearing a towel "what's wrong?"
"I've got really bad period pains and I forgot to bring any paracetamol"
"Okay, I've got some can you have"
Rachel went and got her a glass of water and some tablets and handed them to her.
"Thanks Miss" Janeece said
"No problem. Don't be afraid to come back and see me later if it's still hurting"
"See you later. That dress looks dead nice by the way." Janeece said pointing to the dress that Rachel had laid out on the bed. "I'm sure Mr Lawson will like that choice of outfit"
"Bye Janeece" Rachel said closing the door, dismissing her last comment
Rachel had just put her underwear on when Eddie walked out of the bathroom.
"Oh sorry Rach, I didn't realise you weren't changed yet" Eddie said going back into the bathroom, both of them blushing furiously
"Eddie, you can come out again now" Rachel said
"I really am so sorry about that"
"It's fine Eddie. Would you mind zipping my dress up for me please?"
"Of course" Eddie said as Rachel turned around. Eddie carefully zipped up Rachel's dress for her. Rachel's skin began to tingle as Eddie's fingers brushed against her bare skin
"You look lovely" Eddie commented
"Thanks" Rachel replied pushing her hair behind her ear
Rachel and Eddie headed downstairs a bit early and went for a drink first. After a little while it was seven o clock so they headed off to meet everyone else.
Once everyone had arrived they went to the Chinese for a meal, and then went down onto the beach afterwards.
"Come on everyone, I'm going to take a photo" Matt said holding up his photo
Everyone huddled up and Matt took some lovely photos. Tom then walked up to Matt and took the camera.
"I'll take some with you in mate"
Most people then decided to go for a little paddle in the sea. Tom carried on taking some photos because the images around him really were something special. Everyone seemed so happy.
Steph, who was a bit tipsy, was paddling in the sea however she got a bit deep.
"You might wanna come back a bit Steph, or you're going to get wet" Matt said
"Yeah, yeah" Steph replied turning around to face him before falling back into the sea
"See what did I tell you?" Matt said walking over and dragging a very giggly Steph out of the sea
"Oh Steph, how did you manage that?" Rachel asked coming over laughing at the French teacher
"The waves pushed me over"
"What waves? The sea's completely calm" Rachel laughed
"I think I'll take her back to the hotel now" Matt said
"Alright Matt, see you later" Rachel replied
She didn't want to take the kids back yet, they were all having a great time. And quite frankly so was she.
Brett and Mika decided to write in the sand 'Waterloo Road was here' and then everyone signed their name around it.
Eddie was bursting for a wee, and knew he wouldn't be able to hold on until they got back to the hotel.
"Where are you going?" Rachel asked
"I'm bursting for a wee so I'm going behind those rocks" Eddie replied
"I didn't need to know that"
"You did ask" Eddie said before running up to the rocks. He was surprised to see Chlo and Donte behind them kissing very passionately.
They quickly broke apart when Eddie approached, making them all feel very embarrassed. Although it was probably lucky Eddie came when he did because things were getting very heated between the pair.
"Sorry sir" Donte said standing up and taking hold of Chlo's hand before walking off
"That was so embarrassing" Chlo said when they joined everyone else on the beach
"What was?" Maxine asked overhearing what she'd just said
"Mr Lawson just caught us kissing" Donte said making them all laugh
After a great evening on the beach they all started to walk back from the beach.
Bolton was walking at the front with Paul when all of a sudden Janeece and Maxine jumped out from behind a big tree plant. Bolton and Paul both screamed, causing Janeece and Maxine to fall about in a fit of giggles.
"What's going on?" Rachel asked who was walking at the back
"Everything's fine miss, Bolton and Paul and just big scaredy cats" Chlo said
"No we're not. We were only joking man" Bolton said
"No you weren't. You should have seen your face!" Maxine replied
Everyone started laughing, much to Bolton and Paul's dismay.
