Connection*LT*

>>Chapter 9<<

" Hows Harry?" I mumbled into the phone. "Hes alright Audrey," Louis muttered. "You should see the other guy!" I heard Harry say proudly in the background. "Harry your an idiot you know that right?" I teased lightly. "Well he was touching my girl's bum. I couldn't permit that," Harry said protectively. "He does more than just touch her bum. They're dating," I started, and I could feel Harry's breathing get heavier. Damn it, I'm the idiot. "That was very insensitive," Louis said, a hint of amusment in his voice. "I'm sorry Harry, I'm an idiot," I whispered. "Its fine," he muttered," I should hang up now. We'll talk later," he said. "Wait!" I said almost forgeting the reason I had called. "Yeah?" Harry replied. " I don't want our group to break up Harry and the fighting with Luke is," I said and the line went static. He hung up. I waited a while for him to call back but he never did.

"Beach time!" the childish boy next to me yelled piercing my ears. " Jeez Niall, we know," Louis rolled his eyes. I just smiled. We're all going to the beach today. We're in three cars, Luke and Harry in a different one so there isn't drama . Since we lived fifteen minutes away gas wasn't a problem either.It was hot. And since there are some good waves Liam and Louis said they were going to surf.

I rode with Niall, Louis, Perrie, Harry, and Zayn. Perrie Edwards is a tall beautiful blonde who is Zayn's girlfriend. They are a bit off and on. I laid back on the leather seats. My sweaty skin was sticking against the chair and I couldn't help but to feel uncomfortable and anxious to get to the beach.

When we got there I was the first out of the car. I peeled off my shirt and was left in my bathing suit top. It was a bandana design. I ran towards the water getting rid of my shoes and pants. "Wait up!" I heard Perrie distantly but I'm unstopable. I ran into the water, it was nice and cold. The feeling was great. "No patience," Louis said walking beside me. He was shirtless and the beginning of his v-line was barely exposed. When he noticed me watching I blushed and quickly turned away. "Don't worry I'm checking you out too," he smirked and I sunk down deeper into the water to he couldn't see me. Micheal, Hanna, and Luke swam over and I got on Michael back that way I wouldn't have to swim. "Nice," Hanna smirked. "Why didn't your invite Nathan so you can be all over him," she said and I tensed. I let go of Michael. "It's not like that," I sighed. " Megan is coming later on. I invited her," Louis said casually. I was confused. Is Megan with Michael or Louis? "Invite Nathan," Hanna pressured. "Okay Okay," I said getting out of the water and I jogged to the car to get my towel and phone.

<<<Hanna Point of View>>>

Audrey jogged out and I caught Louis looking at her ass. I looked at Luke to see if he noticed too, but no, he was oblivious in his little world. "I saw that!" I said and Louis looked at me. "What?" he asked. "You were looking at Audrey's ass. Wait you like her?" I questioned. "I like her bum," he chuckled lowly in that Doncaster accent of his. "So you don't like her?" I asked. "She is unlikeable," Louis assured. "Ouch," Luke said. "Well Nathan likes her very much," I taunted. " Well thats fucking great for him," Louis said in annoyance getting out of the water. "He likes her," I giggled. "Yeah but Louis only knows how to hump and dump," Micheal comments. I wrinkled my nose in disgust. "Eww," I said and Luke laughed snaking his arm around my exposed waist. I could see Harry glaring from the umbrella he was under.

BACK TO AUDREY

"Nathan do you want to meet me at the beach? I'm here hanging with a couple friends," I muttered in fear of possible rejection. "Yeah sure. Be there in 30 m'kay?" he asked. "Perfect," I said instantly regreting it, " I mean cool," I said toning it down. As I hung up Megan walked by me. Louis invited her. I hate that shes here. "Hi," I said stiffly. "Mmh doesn't Louis look yummy?" she said licking her lips. I looked at her. How the hell do you reply to that? "Yeah, if he were a food," I snorted. "I know you like him so back off," she snicked walking to the water. Me like Louis? Yeah right. " Really?" I asked smuggly, " Then I guess you better keep an eye on him," I taunted and with that left her standing there. I know girls like her, they all high and mighty but she's just as insecure as everyone else.

"Hey guys," Nathan said sneaking up from behind me causing me to jump a little. "Hello," Niall said in a sing-song manner. "Want to swim?" I asked Nathan and I heard multiple people saying yes. I wanted to go with alone Nathan, so we can talk but the crowd didn't seem to catch that. We got in the water and I pulled Nathan to a side. His wavy locks were drenched and he bit down on his lower lip. "Nathan," Is started before he interupted me,"Audrey," he said mimicking me. "We aren't going to date just because of our parents put us together right?" I questioned. "No," he shook his head pulling his hands on my waist. "We are doing this for us," he said leaning in and kissing me hungrily. The kiss ended quickly because I pulled away. All my friends are watching. Zayn and Micheal even wolf whisled. I swam back to the group, and Nathan followed soon behind me. I briefly looked at Megan and she mouthed "slut" And I thought I was the virgin diaries. "Why don't we have chicken fights?" Niall suggested devilishly. Everyone agreed except Louis,Zayn and I who groan unanimously. Its worse than truth or dare because I know I'm heavy as shit. I like to eat okay! "No," I protested. I'm going to freaking crush Nathan. "Yeah I agree with that statement. Audrey might be a bit heavy for me," Nathan chuckled and I stiffened. Ouch. Did he just call me fat? Yeah my stomach doesn't cave in but I'm not.... "heavy". He could damn easyily carry me and yes I know I just contradicted what I said before but it's very different when he says it. "Bullshit," Micheal said, " I can easily carry her." And I felt better, not like a whale anymore. "Yeah Nathan maybe its lack of muscle on your side," Louis taunted. Nathan's face was flushed. Louis really emasculated him there. "Oh shut up, I just need to go to the gym that all,"I chuckled, " I put my arm around Nathan comfortingly. I really wanted to dissolve this awkward situation.As everyone got in partners, Micheal came and told me I'd be his. I got on his shoulders. The rest of my friends did so as well.. except Nathan who didn't, but I didn't feel bad. Probably no one else here was light enough for him. Here were the teams:

Niall and Harry

Hanna and Luke

Megan and Louis

Perrie and Zayn

Liam and Danielle

Me and Mikey

" Nathan you reff,"Hanna giggled getting on Luke's back. "Ready?" Nathan asked, and there was a corus of yeses. "Go," And I easily pushed Hanna off Luke who was fixing her hair. Victory! Perrie and Danielle both went down after Perrie pushed Danielle off and Zayn lost his grip on Perrie.Megan nearly punched Niall off Harry. I swear if it weren't so funny it'd be scary. I just wanted to jump off, but Mikey had an iron grip and I became determined to beat Megan. She latched onto my arm and Micheal pulled back. Megan began to twist my arm.I simply peeled her arm off and pushed her as hard as I could knocking her and Louis a little deeper into the water. Megan lost her balence and fell right off. I grinned and looked down at Micheal cheekily.

I got out with Zayn while others stayed in. Zayn laid nearby on a towel with a shirt covering his face. He doesn't know how to swim and he swallowed quite a bit of water playing chicken fights which he wasnt too happy about. He didn't want to play in the first place.
