Skylar’s POV
Harry’s tongue slipped across my bottom lip as he pulled away from me. I was left slightly breathless from the heated kiss. “We should go back now, it’s dark,” Harry said.
I let out a huff, “I don’t want to.”
“Trust me, I’d much rather continue this, but we really should go back,” He smirked as he rested his forehead against mine.
“Fine,” I groaned as I stood up. He walked a step behind me as we made our way back to the shack.
“You’re a really good kisser by the way,” Harry said quietly into my ear as we entered the shack.
I could feel my face heat up, but didn’t respond. “So where is everyone going to sleep?” I asked the group.
“Why tomorrow were going to build another shack so there will be an adults one and a kids one, but for tonight were all going to squeeze in here,” my dad answered.
“Wait, how long are we going to be here for?” I asked instantly.
“A few days, a week tops,” my mom piped in.
“That long?” I groaned.
“Think of it as a vacation,” Niall’s mom said. Well that explains where Niall gets his optimism from.
“A vacation without wifi or signal, no thanks,” I rolled my eyes.
“Stop trying to start a fight and just go with it,” my mother huffed.
“Maybe, I wouldn’t start fights if you didn’t force me onto an island without even telling me why,” I said as I grabbed my backpack and stepped out of the opening with no door on it.
“What are you going?” She snapped.
“To change, got a problem with it?” I snapped without bothering to turn around.
I stepped to the side of the shack before pulling off my jeans, bra, and t-shirt, replacing them with sweatpants, a shorts bra, and a sweatshirt since it was starting to get cold.
After a moment of just standing there, giving myself time to calm down, I went back inside where everyone was lounging around. I laid down next to Harry.
“You okay?” he asked quietly.
“Yeah, I’m just annoyed but hopefully tomorrow will be better,” I said as I flipped over facing the wall so my back was to everyone.
“Goodnight,” Harry whispered into my ear sending shivers down my back.
“Night,” I let out before drifting into dreamless sleep.

I woke up covered in sweat in the empty shack. I could hear everyone rumbling around outside. Pulling off my sweatshirt and pant I changed into a sports bra, spandex, and a loose t-shirt. I was already sweaty might as well just go for a run. Before stepping out I through my messy hair up into a ponytail and slipped on a pair of sneakers.
The first thing my eyes landed on when I stepped out of the shack was Harry carrying Mackenzie over his shoulder playfully flirting. I started to fill with anger. Seriously we snogged last night and now he’s flirting with my best friend.
I balled my hands into firsts as I turned around to run the other direction. As I passed my dad he grabbed my arm forcing me to a stop.
“What?” I snapped.
“If you’re going for a run why don’t you go around the island and see if you can find water. We have a purifier, but we can’t use the sea water and were almost out of bottles,” he said.
“K,” I responded quickly before pulling my arm away from him.
“But you can’t go by yourself, so get someone to go with you.”
“Uh, no thanks,” I said in a non purposely bitchy voice.
“You’re not going by yourself end of discussion,” He said before walking away.
I let out a grunt before walking over to where everyone else was. “Who want to come for a run with me?”
“I will,” Harry said being the first one to respond.
“Anyone else,” I rolled my eyes.
“Well were all kind of busy,” Luke said with a little laugh still in his voice from whatever they were talking about before I came over.
“Looks like you stuck with me,” Harry smiled.
“Let’s go,” I said dryly.
He hurried into the shack to go change. When he came back out he just had on a pair of basketball shorts. Wow, he’s really fit.
No, you’re mad at him. I quickly looked away and started running; staying right along the edge on where the trees start so I wouldn’t be running on sand.
He tried to start a conversation, but I just didn’t answer or had short responses, so we stayed silent until about twenty minutes into the run.
“Are you mad at me or something?” He asked struggling to keep up with my pace.
“Yep,” I said not being the type of person to lie about it. I speed up trying to avoid talking about it though.
“Okay, stop.” He grabbed my arm.
“Don’t touch me,” I said quickly pushing his arm away.
“Why are you mad at me?” Harry asked trying to make eye contact. I didn’t respond and refused to look at him in the eye. “Answer me,” he said grabbing my wrist a little too tightly.
I whipped my arm away from him, “You want to know why I’m mad?” I said half yelling, “Okay, maybe because you made me think there was something between us then went off flirting with my best friend!”
“What are you talking about?” he asked calmly.
“You were carrying her over your shoulder, in a definitely flirty way.”
“I was having a little fit about how she didn’t want to work and wouldn’t move so I carried back to the group. I don’t like her, Skylar; I like you,” he let out in a shy voice, “a lot more than I was planning on actually.”
“What?” I asked.
He turned so he was facing the ocean. “You know how the night of the bonfire Louis was saying I was just going to use you, well at that point he was right, I thought you were hot and that’s it, but then we went on that date and I got to know you- I don’t know. I didn’t plan on having feelings for you, but I do. You are the only girl who I would flirt with, because I can’t even think of other girls, just you.”
I walked around so I could make eye contact with him. “Seriously?” Is all I could get out. No guy have ever said something like that to me before, I didn’t know what to say.
“Yes, seriously,” He said as he put his hands on my around my waist pulling me closer to him and resting his forehead on mine, “I like you a lot, and I know I’ve only known you for a few day but I never want another day without you.”
I felt my face heat up. “I like you too, Harry.”
He gave me a shy kiss before pulling away. “Let’s go.”
We continued on with our run with light conversation. It felt like we ran another mile before we took a break.
“Do you hear that?” I asked coming to a stop.
“What is it?” Harry responded.
“I think it’s a waterfall,” I said smiling before I jogged into the forest, quickly finding it. “I feel so gross; I need to swim.” I said as I pulled off my t-shirt.
I glanced at Harry who was still watching me. “Don’t look,” I commanded.
He chuckled and looked up. I pulled on my sneakers, shorts, and sports bra dropping them into a pile, so I was just in my panties.
Quickly I ran into the water, diving under and pulling my hair out of its pony tail.
Soon Harry ran in and swam up next to me. “You’re fucking beautiful,” He whispered into my ear.
“You need to stop that,” I said pushing his shoulder away.
“Stop what?” He laughed.
“That whole whispering in my ear thing,” I laughed.
“Well you need to stop the whole swimming shirtless thing,” He said pulling him bottom lip in between his teeth.
“Trust me this is a onetime thing,” I giggled.
“It is hot though, just saying.”
“Oh shut up,” I rolled my eyes but couldn’t help my smile.
“I’m sorry,” he said with an over dramatic grin.
