~*~Long Hot Summer~*~
Ch. 1
As Natalie relaxed in the sun she knew this would be a holiday of a lifetime – she had finished all her exams and Louise, Nessi, Claire and herself had decided they needed to get away from it all – so when they found a late deal to Ibiza for 10 days they knew this was the perfect chance to get the holiday they needed. Okay, so every holiday has its problems and so far, the plane had been delayed for 3 hours and Nessi’s suitcase was ‘misplaced’ as the holiday rep liked to call it. Anyway, none of that mattered now as she was in the sitting on the sunbed on the beach whilst flicking through a copy of ‘Looks’ that she had picked up at the airport.
‘Wow – look at this top, i have to get 1 when i go back – its just soooo cute." Natalie exclaimed looking at her three friends next to her. They were asleep ‘Yeh Nats thats a wonderful shirt, hmmm...I’ll have to borrow it sometime – yeh thanks guys!!’ Natalie muttered to herself. She popped on her shades and started to check out the talant around her. This was Ibiza and she was single – it didn’t get much better than that!!!
Just then she noticed three topless lads walk down the beach – she knew she recognised them from somewhere – but she couldn’t think where.
‘Oh! U lads over there don’t I know you?’ she shouted across the beach, a cute lad with a cap on looked up said something to the other two and made his way over.
‘Hey’ said the cute smiled lad ‘Did you want something?’ Natalie analysed his face but still couldn’t make out where she knew him from.
‘Yeh – erm...do i know you?’ she asked
‘you might do, dunno though’ he replyed as he looked down at the sand and perched on the edge of Nats sunbed.
‘Sorry...i probably don’t. I guess I was just looking for someone to talk to as my friends here...’ Nats pointed to her friends next to her ‘...aren’t much company’ The lad smiled and she continued ‘Anyway seeing that i don’t know you...what’s your name?’
‘Scott, and yours is...?’
‘Natalie’
‘What about your friends over there’ as she pointed at the lads who were already pretty far down the beach.
‘Oh! Thats my mates Abs and J. We are on holiday here for a bit.’
‘Yeh, us too we just got here actually.’
Natalie and Scott began to chat for ages and it became quite apparant that they hit it of straight away. After what seemed like no time Abs and J came over.
‘Oi Scott’ shouted Abs who were still a fair distance away
‘Yeh – come on mate, we’ve been waiting for ya for ages’ said J.
‘I think your wanted.’ Smiled Natalie
‘If they want me they can come over..they got legs right?!’ stated Scott
‘Oh yeh they have got legs alright!!!’ said Louise who must have woken up, she was sat at the sunbed beside Nats. Louise looked over at her friend gave her a cheeky grin, and then at the lad beside her. All of a sudden Louises mouth dropped open as she stared at Scott ‘Oh my god!!! Your Scott from 5ive right???’
Natalie stared in disbelief and reached for his cap and took it off then let out a gasp
‘Well thanks for telling me Scott. When u said that u worked in the music industry this wasn’t quite what I had in mind.’ She didn’t look too happy, she had bet his gorgeous guy who she thought she’d never be able to get in a 100 years and then he admits that he’s in a huge band – ‘well that certainately slims down the chances of something happening’ she thought to herself.
‘Oh, I’m sorry what was i supposed to say ‘oh by the way i’m in a band called 5ive’ oh yeh that would have worked you’d either think i was big-headed, it would make u like me or totally scare you off...cya later’ Scott started to get up but Nats grabbed his arm and pulled him back.
‘Fancy an ice-cream?’ she asked, as she let go of his hand, Scott looked at her and smiled a lop-sided smile
‘Sure, why not?’
‘You are so greddy, i can’t believe you’ve eaten two ice-creams in like a minute’ Natalie giggled and gently punched Scott in his arm. They were walking at the edge of the swimming pool at Nats hotel now, well both of there hotels actually, it turned out that the lads were 2 floors up to the girls.
Nats was slightly in front of Scott as they were walking and suddenly Scott grabbed her around the waist and Nats screamed, he held her so she was above the water of the pool. ‘Don’t you dare drop me’ Natalie screamed
‘Or what?’ Scott teased
‘I dunno...I have thought of that yet’ Scott gave out this overacted evil laugh and pulled her back in so her tip-toes were touching the edge of the pool.
‘Nah – i just couldn’t, how could i do that to a pretty girl like you’ Natalie turned around to face Scott at his point and gave him an intense stare.
‘You wanna come back to my hotel room?’ asked Scott, Natalie looked at him shocked and Scott looked puzzled until he realised what that sounded like, ‘Oh, no i didn’t mean it like that, I just need to grab some stuff for the beach and that.’ Nats slowly nodded her head still gazing at his blue eyes.
‘Sure’ she managed to reply and started to walk with Scott, he had called her pretty...this HOT lad that she was with had called her pretty.
*******
‘Erm...mind the mess’ Scott said a tad embarrased, it looked like a bomb had hit it. ‘Just make yourself at home’ Natalie opended the balcony doors and peered over the edge of the balcony whilst Scott searched in his room looking for who knows what.
‘Scott’ Natalie called ‘Do you mind if I get something to drink?’ Scott peared his head out of his door
‘Help yourself’ he replyed, Natalie got a bottle of water then walked into Scotts bedroom.
‘So, who do you share the room with?’ asked Nats. Scott looked up surprised to see she had entered.
‘No one, that the advantage of being loud and noisy, no one wants to share a room with me, u?’
‘What? Do I wanna share a room with you?’ Nats asked puzzled Scott burst out laughing. ‘Whats so funny?’ asked Natalie
‘I meant who do you share a room with’
‘Oh..’ she was soooo embarrased first she thought Scott wanted to take her to his room and now she thought he had wanted her to share a room with him. ‘...Louise’ Natalie said quietly.
‘Why would you wanna share a room with me?’ asked Scott as he edged his way closer to Natalie. Natalie knew the answer the truth is she’d love to share a room anyday with him she’d already totally fallen for this guy that she’d only known a few hours. ‘So, would you?’ he repeted
