Becca's P.O.V
I wake up to the sound of the waves. I turn around and find myself nose to nose with Noah.
I scramble away from him. He groans in his sleep, but he doesn't wake up.
I pull his arm off of me. Before I could get up on my feet, his arms curl around me again and pulls me towards him. I cry out in surprise and whacked him. Noah wakes.
"Sorry, Becca. I thought you were . . ." He yawns, rubbing his eyes.
"That I was?" I asked, exasperated.
"That you were my pillow." He said, blushing.
Suddenly, the thought that he thought I was his pillow was so ridiculous. I started to laugh. He ran his hand through his hair looking embarrassed.
"You are a pillow hugger?" I giggle.
"What the heck are you talking about?" He asks confused.
"People who sleep hugging their pillow or hands near pillows." I replied.
"Maybe, but I know you think it's hot" He jokes, winking.
"Probably." I said, winking. He gasps, mockingly.
He suddenly lifts me up and starts running.
"Oi! What are you doing?!" I scream.
"Getting revenge." He laughs.
"For what?" I questioned, whacking his butt.
"For waking me up." He says whacking my butt.
He dumps me into the water. I pull him under the waves.
We are both dripping wet and laughing.
His hair is dripping wet, his eyes are twinkling with amusement.
He is starting to grow a stubble. I usually think it's weird, but on him it looks...
STOP. Get a grip Becca.
"OW! " I heard.
Noah is hopping around look at his foot.
His foot is bleeding, there is a huge cut on it. It looks pretty fine, but if it got infected...

I look in my bag and find a first aid kit!
"I am okay." He says, as I approach him.
"You probably won't say that when if it gets infected." I retorted.
He sets his foot in my hands.
I rinse carefully. I apply antiseptic cream on it and then paste a band aid on it.
"Seriously, babe. A princess band aid?" he complains.
"Look, my mom thinks I still like princesses, but I don't wanna hurt her feelings. Plus no one is here except me. So deal with it." I scolded.
" Babe, look at this! It's Aurora!" He pleaded.
"Wait, how did you know that it's Aurora? " I teased.
"I have a younger sister." He replies, rolling his eyes.
"Fine" I pull out a sharpie and drew a mustache on Aurora. Sorry, Aurora. "Happy now?" I ask, glaring, daring him to say something.
"That's more like it." He remarked. " Omg,I look fabulous!" He says in a falsetto voice.
"Don't make fun of your sister. It's -" I replied, automatic feminism kicking in.
"No babe, I am making fun of my mom." He interrupted, smirking.
"Whatever, sweetheart." I shot back.
He grins widely. I go back into the water. It's so cool and refreshing. I could stay here for hours.
"BECCA, LOOK BEHIND YOU!" He hollers, looking panicked.
I turn around to see a shark fin heading towards me. In shock, I cannot move. I scream.
Suddenly, I feel strong, muscular and familiar arms pull me ashore.
"What were you thinking?" He yells at me.
"I'm sorry." I lean over and give kiss on his cheek.
I look down, afraid to look up at his expression.
I look up and see his jaw clenched.
He storms back into the tent, angrily.
"Hey, I'm sorry." I say, confused.
Why is so he mad?
"Do you have any idea what could have happened?" He exploded. "You could have-
Unaware of what I was doing, I lean over and kiss him, he is tense with surprise.
I pull away immediately.
I run into the woods.
I kissed Noah Jackson.
These words run through my head a million times.
What have I done?

I breathed nervously."You reminded me of her," he whispered into my ear, "and I fucking hate it." He pushed himself away from me and slammed the door shut.
