(Niall's POV)

I sat outside on the balcony, staring at the bustling city in front of me. The light breeze brushed my cheeks and the weather was extremely nice today. I admired the view, there was a beach not so far from where we were staying and not many people were there.

As I watched people walk in and out of stores, moving around the streets, I heard the door creak open.
I turned around, seeing Zayn had decided to come back from God knows where.

"Hey, what ya thinking about, Niall?" he asked, joining me. He placed a chair beside mine's and sat down.

"Nothing, I was just admiring the view." I pointed towards the beach. "Hmm, why don't we get Elizabeth and Alexia and go to the beach, huh? There aren't a lot of people and I bet the boys are gonna be gone for a while. It'll be peaceful, but I wonder if they'll agree to join us?" Zayn calmly spoke.

"Well there's one way to find out, come on!" I smiled, pulling him along with me.

We walked down to the second floor and straight to the girls' room. I knocked on the door, hoping they weren't busy.

"Hey, Alexia!" Zayn smiled, walking in. "Hi!" she said, welcoming me to come in too. We both took a seat on the couch as she took the one in front of us.

"Nice to see you guys! Not that I don't like you two here, uh, but why are you here exactly?" she asked.

I opened my mouth to speak, but someone cut me.

"Alexia, who is it?" I knew it was Elizabeth. Her voice was just so sweet and gentle.

"It's Niall and Zayn!" she called back. As soon as she said that, Elizabeth walked into the room. I could tell she took a shower, her hair was still a little damp.

"How are you guys?" she asked, sitting down beside her friend.

"We're good. And you?" I said. "I'm great!" she smiled. I don't know why, but I found myself smiling every time she smiled.

"So, Niall, you were going to tell us why you guys came." Alexia reminded.

"Oh yeah. Zayn and I were planning to go to the beach and well we were wondering if you two would like to join us. I mean you don't have to of you're busy." I answered, secretly praying they would say yes.

"Sure why not?" they said in unison.

"I'm going to go swim, if any of you wanna join me?" I said. "I'll come, Liz here doesn't know how to swim." Alexia informed.

"Don't worry you two, I'll keep her company." Zayn assured, shooing us off. So me and Alexia quietly walked towards the ocean.

"You know, I think Liz is starting to have feelings for you. I'm not sure, but it seems that way. She literally smiles and blushes every time you're around, let alone hearing your name too. She's gotten me confused, the girl can be so naive sometimes." Alexia told softly.

"She what's?!" I exclaimed, turning red. She stopped and turned to face me.

"Come on man! I said I don't know yet!" she laughed running into the water.

I turned around to look at where Zayn and Elizabeth were sitting. Does-does she really have feelings for me?

"Niall, hurry up, already!" Alexia called. "Coming!" I shouted, running into the water myself.

~~~~~

"You better dry up guys!" Elizabeth handed me and Alexia towels. "Thank you!" I smiled. "Hey, it's no big deal." she giggled.

"Should we head back to the hotel? The boys might be back by now." Zayn got up from the grass. He pulled his shirt on, covering most of his tattoos.

"Care to join us for dinner, ladies?" I asked as we entered the building. It was really quiet in here, it sort of scared me.

"I don't know, what if the others mind?" Elizabeth asked. "Nah, they wouldn't. Plus, one of them doesn't really have a mind either." Zayn smirked. I chuckled, obviously knowing he was talking about Louis.

We made our ways to our room and I opened the door.

Liam and Harry were sitting on the floor, playing Taken Tag Tournament on the PlayStation.

"Oh look who finally decided to show up!" Louis exclaimed, rushing over to the door. "And you kidnapped my poor friends!" he cried dramatically, pulling Elizabeth into a tight hug.

"Geez, Lou, you haven't changed a bit! Ugh, get off of me!" she managed to say as Louis was still squeezing her.

"Aww, I love you too!" he chuckled, letting her go. "Anyway, where were you guys?" he asked as he sat down on the couch.

"The beach. Pretty peaceful I may add." Zayn replied, taking a seat beside him. "I don't know why we had to come back!" Alexia laughed, slumping down beside Louis. He just rolled his eyes.

Me and Elizabeth sat down on the the other couch. She watched Harry and Liam playing, totally focused on the game. I on the other hand was looking at her, admiring how adorable she was; always smiling and laughing.

I couldn't help, but think about what Alexia said to me a little while ago. But she doesn't know herself and neither does Elizabeth. I don't know if I had feelings for her, but why have I started feeling so vulnerable around her? All my worries just go away and she manages to make my day better; always putting a smile on my face.

I didn't know what this feeling was, but I had no plan of letting it go so easily. I just have to wait, to know what it really is and maybe, I'll like it.
