Everyone arrived the next morning, when I was still sleeping. Tom received them and Emma jumped on me on the bed. I groaned as she smothered me with kisses on my face, of course she did that, I hadn't seen my best friend in a month. I hugged her, but as she was about to pull off my covers, I held her hand and stopped her.

"Hey, Y/N!" the boys shouted as they came in the room. They all smirked when they saw Emma on top of me, "Good day!" Oliver said tipping his hat a little. "Come on sleepyhead, we're thinking to go golfing" Daniel said but I shook my head. "You guys go on, I'll meet you there" I said sitting up straight, I covered my body with the duvet. "Tom gonna get some!" James joked making me realize that I was here sitting full naked in our, well - Tom's room. I threw a pillow at them but before it could hit them, they scattered away.

Emma and I got ready in traditional outfits and headed out. "You guys coming?" Tom asked wearing his shoes. I shook my head, "Em and I are going to have some breakfast and head for shopping, you meet us at lunch" I said putting my slippers on.

As Emma and I were looking around the shop to buy something, she said, "So, did you tell him?" I sighed loudly and shook my head quietly. "Why not, Y/N?" she asked again picking up a hat. "I- I, erm, it's not like I don't want to, I do, but what if he doesn't feel the same? And then everything's going to change forever. He will know that I love him whereas I will regret ever opening my mouth. Plus, it's not like I didn't decide to, I told you, I will tell him after the premiere-"

"Look, I don't know and I don't feel what you're going through exactly, but being secretly in love with your best friend must be one of the hardest things to deal with. If you delay confessing and if he doesn't like you back, then it's going to hurt you more than it will right now. It will hurt, I'm not saying it won't, I'm also not saying that he definitely likes you back and keep your hopes up. You might not like me right now, but I'm just telling the truth and saving my best friend from a hell lot of hurt" she said making me hug her.

"You're not hurting me, Em. I love you!" I said and she wrapped her arms around me. "Just promise that you'll talk to him before we start filming in September - I'm giving you a month, I think it might be more than enough" she said and I sniffled a little.

"Yeah-" I said wiping my cheeks, "W-What is it, Y/N?" she asked wiping my tears again. I chuckled lightly and shook my head, "No matter who I lose in the world, I don't want to ever lose you" I said crying and mumbling inaudibly but I think she got the gist. She wrapped her arms around me once again.

It was the last day of the trip, we were going to leave tomorrow on the 6th, so that we would have enough time to be ready for the premiere. Currently, I sat right in front of Tom on the sand, hugging my knees, enjoying the live performance at the luau in front of us. Tom spread his legs, pulled me closer to him and wrapped his legs around me again, like he was trapping me. I chuckled as he placed his chin on my shoulder.

"God, I'm going to miss Hawaii" he said lowly. I rested my head on his, "We could come back, I feel like we haven't seen everything" I said smiling slightly. "I would like that" he replied and we enjoyed the show. After we had a perfect Hawaiian buffet, everyone headed in but I stayed behind. "You coming, Shorty?" Tom asked softly.

I looked at the beach with the moon blooming brightly above in the sky, "In a few" I said turning back to the beach. I sat down near the shore, but away from the water, leaning the weight of my body on my palms, I took in the beauty in front of me.

The sound of the waves hitting the sand, the leaves dancing in the air, someone playing a ukulele far from me, just made me feel at peace. I just stared at the sight. I closed my eyes and laid on the sand. Resting my hands on my stomach, I felt someone next to me. I opened my eyes and smiled faintly at him. "Hello, love" James said sweetly. He laid down next to me as well.
