(Zayn’s POV)

I sighed, “Fine.”
“Fine?” Louis blurted.
“Yeah. Fine. But I say how this goes okay?”
“What do you mean?” Niall chirped.
“I mean, I’m in charge. If we’re going to really follow through with this then we need to have a plan when this all turns to shit.”
“You mean if this all turns to shit, right mate?”
“No, I mean when. Just because nobody has noticed us yet doesn’t mean they won’t. And when they do, we need a plan. Alright?”
“Alright, mate. You have my word.” Liam had the biggest smile on his face, and I couldn’t help but smile with him.

We sat there talking for what seemed like hours, and Harry said something that really caught my attention.
“That Kylie girl is beautiful.” He said, staring up into space looking at something in the air.
“So is Clarissa..”
“And that SJ girl...” My head popped up at the sound of her name.
“I told you he likes her!” It was Niall, staring at me with a smirk.
“No, she’s just.. Nice. I don’t even know her!" I shook my head fast.
“Well now is your chance to get to know her..” Harry smirked, “She’s coming this way.”

I stood up fast, almost falling over my own two feet. Trying to be cool I stood up straight. What are you doing? I thought, you’re Zayn freaking Malik! Be yourself and be cool. I nodded approvingly to myself and saw her walking up to me, smiling.

“Hey,” she said quietly, “We thought you guys ditched us. Too cool to hang with us beach bums, huh?” She looked serious. “What? Wha- no! No! we wouldn’t- I didn’t- I mean-.” I trailed off. Way to be cool Zayn. She touched my shoulder and I stared at her warm tan hand while she giggled, looking up at me.
“I’m just messing with you…” “Zayn.”
“Right! Zayn. Sorry, really bad with names.”
“It’s- It’s fine.” I looked down sheepishly. God, what was this girl doing to me?

“Did you leave ‘cause of us smoking and stuff? I’m sorry. We usually don’t pressure people like that. I figured you and your friends weren’t really the type of guys to be into that stuff..” “What? Oh no. Well kinda. We’re here for only a year until we get shipped back home and I just don’t want the boys and I to get into too much trouble.” I said truthfully.

“Well then you came to the wrong place.” She smirked.
“Oh yeah?” I cocked an eyebrow, “Why is that?”
“Because you’re in California. California is the best place to get into trouble. It’s a beautiful disaster, and once you see that, you’ll never wanna leave.” She winked and turned around to walk away, but stopped to look at me again.

“Tell your friends to come back with us to the fire pit. We love new people. You guys seem pretty cool so just chill. I can tell you’re nervous for whatever reason.” I gulped loud.

She began to walk up to me again and this time she stood close enough for me to feel her breath on my face.

“Don’t worry. We don’t bite.” I gulped again. “Hard.” With that she turned and walked away laughing.

Wow. I think I'm going to like California.
