I went to my room and grabbed some clothes. I walked into the bathroom and started tuening some music on. I went into the shower while singing here by Alessia Cara. (The song is above if you want to listen to it)

Lyrics:

I guess right now you've got the last laugh

I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
Or I'm not listenin' or I'm indifferent
Truly, I ain't got no business here
But since my friends are here
I just came to kick it but really
I would rather be at home all by myself not in this room
With people who don't even care about my well-being
I don't dance, don't ask, I don't need a boyfriend
So you can go back, please enjoy your party
I'll be here, somewhere in the corner under clouds of marijuana
With this boy who's hollering I can hardly hear
Over this music I don't listen to and I don't wanna get with you
So tell my friends that I'll be over here

Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
And I can't wait till we can break up outta here

Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
An anti-social pessimist but usually I don't mess with this
And I know you mean only the best and
Your intentions aren't to bother me
But honestly I'd rather be
Somewhere with my people we can kick it and just listen
To some music with the message (like we usually do)
And we'll discuss our big dreams
How we plan to take over the planet
So pardon my manners, I hope you'll understand
That I'll be here
Not there in the kitchen with the girl
Who's always gossiping about her friends
So tell them I'll be here
Right next to the boy who's throwing up cause
He can't take what's in his cup no more
Oh God why am I here?

Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
And I can't wait till we can break up outta here

Hours later congregating next to the refrigerator
Some girl's talking bout her haters
She ain't got none
How did it ever come to this
I shoulda never come to this
So holla at me I'll be in the car when you're done
I'm standoffish, don't want what you're offering
And I'm done talking
Awfully sad it had to be that way
So tell my people when they're ready that I'm ready
And I'm standing by the TV with my beanie low
Yo I'll be over here

Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here oh oh oh
I ask myself what am I doing here?
Oh oh oh here oh oh oh here
And I can't wait till we can break up outta here

Oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh

I listened to a few other songs until I was done taking a shower. I got out, dried myself, and put on my swim suit and a blue dress over it. I then blow dried my hair and left it loose. I walked out of the bathroom and went to my room. Thomas was in there waiting to take a shower. He kissed me on the cheek then went to the bathroom. I started packing towels, sunscreen, and a book for me to read. I walked downstairs and started putting all of that stuff into the car. Ansel was waiting outside for me and Thomas.

I went back inside and checked up on Thomas. He was getting dressed. I waited outside the door for him. When he came out, I grabbed his hand and we walked together to the car. It was Thomas's turn to drive so I let him. We started driving and another song came on. (I know, two songs in one chapter) It was perfect by One Direction.


After a few minutes of driving, we arrived at the pool. We got out and brought everything with us. Me and Thomas held hands as we walked inside. There were lifeguards sitting on high chairs and a few teenagers in the pool. They looked like they were thirteen or fourteen.

Ansel chose some chairs for us to sit down at. I took my dress off and jumped into the pool after we put our stuff down. Thomas and Ansel did the same but took their shirts off instead of dresses. They jumped in and we all swam together. I went under the water and swam around a little bit. When I came up for air, something hard hit my head. I started feeling a little bit dizzy so I got out of the water. I started laying down on one of the chairs. Ansel noticed I was gone and came to me.
"What's wrong Allison?" He asked.

"I got hit in the head and I kinda feel dizzy." I admitted.

"Do you need anything? Water? Food?" He suggested.

"No thank you. I don't want to mess up your fun." I said.

"I don't mind getting you anything." He insisted.

"It's ok. I'm fine. You can go back to the pool with Thomas."

"Are you sure?" He asked.

"Yes. I'm 100% sure."

With that, he ran back to the pool. I started listening to music on my phone and just laying down. After an hour or two, Thomas and Ansel came out of the water. We decided to go get some food. I tried to get up but I couldn't. My legs were weak. Why is this happening to me?
"Thomas, I can't walk." I said.

"Why can't you?" He asked.

"My legs feel weak." I answered.

He walked over to me and carried me bridal style to the car. He set me down and put the seat back so I could lay down. Ansel and Thomas then got into their seats and we started driving to a restaurant. I was getting really tired so I fell asleep. A while passed and I was awakened by one of my favorite songs on the radio. It was cake by the ocean by DNCE.


I looked around and saw that Thomas had connected his phone to the radio with the AUX wire. He looked at me with that cute smile I loved and started talking.
"I knew you liked this song so I put it on in hopes that you would wake up." He said.

"That did wake me up." I said with a big smile on my face. Thomas's hand started inching toward mine and he grabbed it. They had food in the car already. It was from Subway.
"I also know that you love Subway so I got you your favorite sub." He said.

"Thank you Tommy." I said, the smile on my face getting bigger. I looked at the back and Ansel was sleeping. He looked so peaceful. I looked back to the front and started singing. My head felt better now that I took a nap. I decided to test put my legs so I moved them around. I could feel them now. I am better.

We arrived at the house and I got out. I walled to the back of the car and gently shook Ansel. He woke up and smiled.
"We're home. Come on." I said. He got out of the car and grabbed the pool things from the trunk. Thomas grabbed the food. I grabbed the keys to open the door. We went inside and started eating our food. After that, I took a shower and went to bed.
