《AMOUR》Chapter 7.

"Royyyaaa" I hear Anna screaming my name from the kitchen.
"Ughhh" I make some sort of muffled noise with my head stuffed in the pillow.
"ROYYYAAA" She tries again.
I think I'm just not going to reply and she'll think I'm still asleep.
"Roya get your ass here this second and have breakfast or god help me I'll burn the food!"
Yup. That woke me up.
"Coming!" I reply.
If Anna says she'll burn the food, she WILL burn it.
I freshen up at the speed of lightening and enter the kitchen to see what's going on.
"Finally!" She exclaims.
"What's up?" I ask.
"Ugh the correct term is 'good morning' by the way' she says flipping an omelette.
"Yup that too, good morning mom." I say and she rolls her eyes.
"Have breakfast and then we're getting ready." She says passing me a plate of toast and omelette.
"Where are we going?" I ask sitting on the barstool.
"First shopping then the beach?" She says in a questioning tone as if I should already know this.
I raise my brow for her to explain further.
"Royaaa, Denver invited us remember?" She huffs preparing Ian's plate.
"Ohhh right! About that, I don't really feel like going-" I couldn't finish my sentence before she cut in.
"Roya. Anderson. You're going. I'm going. Ian's going. Everyone's going. Understood?" She says.
Okay. No argument can win that tone.
"Yes Ma'am." I salute her and finish up my food.
"Good. IANNNN" she nods and then calls for Ian. I think she's going crazy taking care of two college students who behave like 12 year olds.
"HERE" Ian replies while walking towards her.
After both of then *greet* each other morning through their mouths, literally, Ian sits besides me with his breakfast while I scroll through Instagram on my phone.
"So, I was thinking you guys go for shopping, I have some work at Uni in library's tech section. Something came up and our head needs me there around five so I'll meet you guys directly at the beach?" Ian says while looking at me.
"Sure." Anna replies and I raise a brow at him.
"Cool." I reply after a moment not thinking much about the matter.
Once I shower, change and get ready for shopping its already 1pm. I go out and see Anna sitting on the couch ready to go.

"So why are we going shopping again?" I ask picking my keys.
"Well its summer break, we're going to the beach today plus I want some new dresses, and we haven't had girl time in a while." She says as she counts every reason on her fingers.
"True that." I reply and we head to my car.
We did a lot of shopping. A LOT. I'm talking 'three dresses, two bikinis, three sweatshirts, a pair of heels' a lot. We reach home and plop down on the couch with all the bags around us.
"Damn that was a required shopping trip." Anna sighs.
"That it was." I say agreeing.
"Come on, chop chop, we gotta get ready for that beach thing. Only got an hour and its quite a drive." Anna says getting up and picking a few bags.
"I'm going to wear the navy blue bikini under my black hoodie and jean shorts just in case." I say going towards my room.
"Yup, good idea. I'm gonna wear my olive green one." Anna yells from her room.
I just want to lie down and watch the sky at the beach but still decided on wearing a bikini underneath in case I felt like going in the water.
We get ready, have sandwiches and head out.
"Ian says he's in Uni and will be on his way soon." Anna tells me while buckling up.
"Cool." I say starting the engine.
Its a 30 minute drive to the beach from where we like and we reach there around 6:30 in the evening.
"I really need to take Denver's number, how will we find them here?" I say while walking towards the beach.
"I don't really think that's going to be a problem." Anna says while motioning towards a group of guys playing volleyball. Shirtless. Gathering all the attention from the nearby crowd. Did I say shirtless? Yeah that.
I spot Denver pretty easily in the group and damn was the sight hot. Abs. Messy hair. Sweat. Shorts. Barefoot. Wow.
Anna nudges me from the side smirking and I return to reality. I find Dave on the same team and now I believe that hotness just runs in their genes.
We make our way to the group and Denver catches my eye and smiles. He makes his way towards us, making the other team members groan in frustration.

"Hey, you came." He says.
"Want us to go back?" I raise my brow.
"No no." He chuckles, "I'm just glad."
"You should be." I smirk.
"Hey Anna." He nods at her, "where's Ian?"
"Hey, he's on his way." She smiles.
Denver nods and motions for us to follow him.
"Guys this is Roya and Anna. Roya and Anna, these are the guys." He says.
This is followed my some sets of "Hey", "Ssup", "Welcome" and so on.
"Hey." We reply back smiling.
"No girls?" I ask.
"There are some, I think they went to the hot dog stand." Dave says.
"Volleyball?" A guy from the group asks smiling.
"If you don't know how to play, we can teach you." He continues.
I look at Anna and we both smirk at each other.
"Different teams?" I ask her and she nods.
"You guys pick which one of us goes in which team." Anna says.
"I pick Roya." Another guy puts his arm around my shoulder and drags me to the other side of the net.
"Anna you're with us." Dave high fives Anna and takes her to his side.
Denver narrows his eyes towards the guy next to me and follows Dave.
"I'm Roy, the hottest one of the crew." The guy who dragged me offers his hand.
I chuckle and shake it.
"Don't mind him, he still has the brain of a fourteen year old kid." another guy steps in.
"I'm Tyler." he introduces himself and I shake his hand chuckling. We all gather in a circle to make team strategies as if we were playing for our nation. The other two members on the team - James and Ashton also introduced themselves. On the other side along with Anna, Denver and Dave was Ben who is Denver's batchmate and Kyle and Mark who were Dave's friends.
"So you see those two very strong men on the other side? The miller brothers. Yeah they are winning right now and we need to stop that." Tyler states.
"I got this." I say winking towards him while taking the ball to serve.
"Damn woman. That was hot." Roy whistles and Tyler smacks him on his head while we all laugh. These people are amazing.
I look at Anna on the other side and she winks at me, I smile at her and start the game. To say that the guys were shocked to see how well we both play would be an understatement. They were fucking astonished.
After a VERY heated match between both the teams, the score was 19-21 and time was running out. I love winning and so my last trick was a tit for tat.
Since the boys are so distractingly shirtless (and yes they used that to their full advantage) I gave Anna a look and raised my brow. She understood what I meant and together we removed our hoodies leaving us in shorts and bikini tops.
Jaws on the sand. Literally. We smirked and continued the play as if it was nothing. Denver couldn't move until he missed a shot and I chuckled watching him come back to reality.
"Stop drooling Miller." Anna said smirking and everyone laughed.
It was an easy win after that and Roy pulled me in a bone crushing hug as soon as we won. The whole team joined in. Then Denver crossed the net and offered me his hand to shake.
"Well played Anderson." He said.
"Thank you Miller." I smiled at him.
"Not happening." Came Ian's voice from behind Denver.
"Only the privileged can be on last name basis with Roya." Ian says placing his arm on my shoulder.
"I'm not in the category yet?" Denver asks in amusement.
I acted like I was thinking about it and then I replied with a simple "no" and shrugged.
"That hurt." Denver put his hand on his heart as if I stabbed him.
I just chuckled and murmured "Drama queen" but I guess he heard me cause the next thing I know, he's chasing me and I start running.
"I heard that!" Denver says chasing.
"Good to know your ears work." I yelled back running forward along the shore.
I looked forward so that I don't run into someone but what I say made my heart stop. I ran faster and straight into his arms.
"Williams!" I yelled as soon as his arms wrapped around me.
"Anderson." He chuckled and kissed my forehead making his grip tighter.
