Chapter Twenty-Three : Beach At Night.
Jack's Point Of View

We had just finished watching The Conjuring Two, while eating Chinese.

Then Conor and Josh want to go to the club... again.

"No thanks. I'm staying here with Mandy." I decline, they just leave.

"Aw, thanks gorgeous." Mandy says, snuggling into my chest.

"What should we do?" I ask Mandy, while playing with her soft blonde hair.

"Go to the beach?" She asks, I laugh.

"What?" She asks.

"Nothing..." I say, as I pick her up bridal style.

"Where we going?" She asks, obviously tired.

"Bed." I say, as I walk into my bedroom watching her slowly drift off.

Then I put her onto the bed pulling the covers down.

I took her shorts off and her t-shirt off. Then put one of my brown t-shirts on her body.

Then I took my top off and left the sweatpants on and climbed into bed. Snuggling into Mandy.

The Next Morning
Mandy's Point Of View

"Mandy. Mandy. Mandy." I hear a voice say, I open my eyes to see Jack.

"Yeah." I croakily.

"It's a lovely day. We can go to the beach today. If you want?" Jack's asked me.

I turned my head to his window to see the beautiful sunlight shining through.

"Okay, pack up your stuff and I'll get ready." I say, as I get out of bed.

"Wait, what time is it?" I ask Jack, picking my phone up.

Too see it is half past eight, "About quarter past eight?" Jack says, I just show him my phone.

"Gorgeous, can you help me pick out an outfit?" I ask jack, he nods and comes beside me.

We scamper through my full suitcase.

"What about this for a bikini?" Jack says, holding up a watermelon bikini.

"Oh, yes... Now for the beach outfit." I say, taking the bikini out of his hands.

I find a pair of light blue short shorts, and a pair of my converse. (White ones)

"Wait, why don't you wear one of my white tops?" Jack offers.

"Sure gorgeous." I say, as he goes over to his clothing rail.

"There you go baby!" Jack said, as he threw a white t-shirt to me.

"Thank you gorgeous." I say, taking Jack's top off of me. I don't know how that got on but still.

I don't put underwear on I put on my bikini.

Then I get the shorts and shirt on tucking it in. I grab a pair of socks and sneakers.

"Do you mind if I vlog?" Jack asks, I shake my head meaning I don't mind.

"Hello everyone, it is fairly early today but we are going to the beach! By we I mean me and Mandy."  Jack spoke to his phone.

"Come here Mandy." Jack says, I walk up to beside him. He kissed the top of my head.

"Please excuse my non makeup face though." I say, covering my face.

"No your beautiful with and without makeup." Jack said, pulling my hands down off of my face.

"Okay, who's ready for the beach!" Jack shouts, I shush him.

"Why are you shushing me?" He asks me.

"Conor... Josh?" I say, he goes 'oohhh'.

"Let's go!" I shout, him shushing me.

"Sorry..." I say.

"It's fine beautiful." Jack says.

I go and quickly get Jack's white beach towel and my watermelon beach towel.

"Wait, let me get my camera so I can do a beach look book for my blog!" I say, he nods.

He continues to talk to the camera, as I get my own camera.

I find it.

"Let's go now." I say, then I put everything in a bag.

I quickly put my hair into a bun.

We leave the apartment and get an über to the beach.

----------

"We have arrived at the beach!" Jack shouts as we walk on the soft sand.

"This is going to be amazing with you gorgeous." Jack said, kissing the top of my head.

I turn around and kiss him onto the lips.

He then puts his phone into his pockets and wraps his arms around my waist kissing me back.

Luckily nobody is on the beach at this time.

Jack takes me by surprise by lifting me up bridal style and running into the water.

"Wait! Before I get soaked can you take some pictures for my look book." I ask Jack, he nods.

He helps me by taking some pictures and some with me on my swimsuit sitting on the beach towel. Then take pictures together by using a timer.

Then at the end we take a selfie.

We sit on my beach towel together in our swimsuits, I'm sitting on Jack's lap while he has his hands resting on my stomach.

Then Jack lifted me up and ran to to the water, I scream in surprise and Jack laughs.

"Don't you dare drop me!" I warn, he spins round and walks further in.

"I won't don't worry." He promised moving my body higher up on him and walking further in.

There was a giant wave coming and we both got knocked over by it.

He splashes me, I then splash him. "Now we are even!" I shout, then somebody lifts me up from behind and spins me round.

"Hello Mandy!" He shouts.

"Joe?" I ask, he says yep and let's me back down.

"I'm guessing you two are a thing now?" Joe suggested, I nodded.

"Yep, Conor isn't too happy about it though it upsets me." I tell him, he nods. Giving me a hug, to show sorrow.

Jack goes right past me and rugby picks up Joe.

Another person picks me up, really high.

"Who is this?" I ask, looking round.

"It's me Caspar. We haven't met but I've heard about you from Jack's channel." He says.

"Oh, that's so cool." I say, he smiles.

"Can I get down please?" I ask, as he is holding me very tight.

"Sure." He said, putting me down carefully.

"So how did you meet Jack?" Caspar asked me.

"Well, I met him through Conor. As I've known Conor since we were in the crib but I moved away when I was 3 as business calls for my dad." I told Caspar, all he does is nod.

"He used to talk about you a lot, I've know him for three years about." He said, and before I say something back I get arms around my waist and a kiss onto my cheek.

"Oh my gosh, you scared me jack." I say, looking up at Caspar.

"I didn't know that you two were dating." He said, I just nodded.

Then Jack removed his arms and someone else lifted me up.

"What's with everyone lifting me up today?" I ask.

"Alfie, I'm going to fall!" I hear Zoe shout, then I know who it was.

Alfie laughed, "You blew my cover, also your so light." Alfie said to me putting me down.

Then Zoe came over and gave me a hug, we were wearing the same bikini.

"We are bikini twins! Also you and Jack look so cute together." Zoe said, as Jack put his arms around my waist again kissing my neck.

I giggled, Zoe went to Alfie jumping onto his back.

I turn my head to kiss him on the lips.

Then I spotted the sidemen.

We didn't take any notice of everybody going to see them so we just stayed there and enjoyed the insolation.

Deeply kissing each other, me wrapping my legs around his waist. He moved his arms from my face to my bum.

Breaking them up for breaths but going back in for more.

The last time we took for a breath jack started on my neck, leaving hickeys or love bites take your pick.

"We better go onto the sand." I say to Jack as he kisses onto my neck.

As we are walking into shore with Jack's arm around my waist, I take the bun down so it covers the probably bold marks on my neck.

"Having fun out there?" Zoe teases, obviously keeping a sharp eye on me and Jack.

She brought me aside.

"I can clearly notice, want a gift?" She asked me, noticing the marks.

Getting out a waterproof concealer and dabbing it onto my neck. Obviously onto the love bites.

"There you go, keep this for the future." Zoe said, handing me the concealer stick.

"Thanks." I say, blushing.

"It's fine, natural relationships contain hickeys. But you and jack have something special. More picture perfect relationship, you were really getting it on there." She said.

"Yeah, but since I was friends with Conor first it slightly hurts me to see him feeling jealous." I tell her, she simply nods.

"Thanks Zoe." I say, walking back to beside Jack who was talking with Joe. I notice Joe staring at me, very awkward being completely honest but everyone crushes on me.

"Broceph, stop eyeing up Mandy." Zoe scolds Joe, I use eye contact to thank her.

She smiles at me and walks away with her blushing brother.

Jack stands behind me with both arms wrapped around my waist.

"Nobody is going to eye up my baby and get away with it." Jack said quietly to me, making me feel sort of safe.

"Thanks gorgeous." I say, as he kisses down my face.

"Let's go with everyone else on the towel." Jack says, walking us to the watermelon towel.

Everyone else put their stuff beside ours.

Our towel is beside Callum's (freezy) and Zoe's.

Yet again I lie on top of Jack, with his arms wrapped around my waist.

"It's getting warmer gorgeous." Jack said to me, I nodded closing my eyes snuggling into his chest.

"It's not time to go to sleep baby." Jack said, but it just overcame me and I drifted off.

Zoe's Point Of View

I watched as Mandy fell asleep on top of Jack. The way he looked at her was just too cute.

It's just the way they both look at each other, it's so picture perfect. Jack kissed her head and whispered something into her ear.

Jack's Point Of View

I whispered into Mandy's ear, "I'll always love you." It is probably very lame, but it's honest and true.

"Guys! Me, Joe and Caspar are going to get ice cream what do you want?" Alfie called.

Everyone spread ice cream flavours, Zoe was writing them down. "What do you want, and Mandy?" Zoe asked, I remember her favourite one from Conor.

"Cookie Dough and Mint Choc-Chip." I say, she nods and goes to Alfie.

Mandy then wakes up. "Everyone's getting ice cream. I picked mint choc chip for you." I told her, she just pressed a kiss onto my lips.

"Calm down guys!" JJ shouts.

She just laughs. Then cups the sides of my arms and pulls me in. Kisses my lips me kissing back.

"What happened to your marks?" I ask her, looking down at her neck.

"Concealer." She says, I go 'aah.'

Then she gets off of me and does a triple back hand spring on the sand and some other things like cartwheels front flips and back flips.

All the guys clap and Zoe cheers.

She bowed, while laughing her head off. I wolf whistled. Making her pull a face at me and blush.

Then Alfie, Joe and Caspar make their way back with the tubs of ice cream.

Joe came over to me, "What did we miss?" He said, looking up to her.

"Mands put on a show." I tell him, he nods.

Mandy goes over to the Caspar and says something, coming over to me with the ice cream tubs. They were big.

She sits cross legged at the bottom of the towel starting to eat the ice cream.

"This is amazing." She says licking the spoon.

"I know." I say, taking a spoonful.

We sit eating the ice cream staring into each other's eyes.

"You know I would do anything for you, right?" I asked Mandy.

"Yes I do know that Jack." Mandy says, kissing me.

-

We are now sitting at a fire we made, safe one of course.

At that moment I felt a head getting heavier on my chest, it's Mandy falling asleep.

"Guys, I'm going. Mandy is already asleep." I announce.

"Same with me, Zoe is needing some shut eye for the long ride. Jack you guys needing a ride?" Alfie offers, I nod and thank him.

Me and Alfie carry our girlfriends to Alfie's car, Zoe tucked in the front with Alfie.

Me and Mandy in the back seats, I told Alfie the directions and we got there.

"Thanks mate." I say, as I carry Mandy to the door of my apartment.

"No problem." Alfie says as he pulls away. All Mandy is wearing is my hoodie and her bikini and converse.

I'm carrying the bag with the rest of her clothes.

I opened the door, with slight struggle as I'm carrying Mand.

"We are back!" I call, seeing Josh lying sprawled out on the couch.

"How did you date go?" Josh asked me.

"It went great." I told him.

Then walking through to my bedroom and putting Mandy onto my bed and getting a makeup wipe out and wiping the concealer off of her neck to reveal the bright red marks on her neck. I removed her bikini from underneath the hoodie and left her like that.

Putting the covers over her and putting her swimming costume into the washing machine.

Then I go into the fridge and get the beers.

Conor comes through and we sit on the sofa and chat normally.
