Mia's POV
I got up extra early, grabbing my camera and dressing in a bathing suit and pair of denim shorts, making my way to the Santa Monica pier, and Venice beach.
The sunrise was beautiful, and the sound of the waves hitting the shore was music to my ears, as I managed to set up, focus, and snap some really awesome shots of the empty beach, and the pier in the appearing sunlight.
There were a few early risers- walking along the beach for the sunrise, so I decided to sit in the sand, soaking up the blissful peace.
With my camera in my hand, and the quiet, yet amazing atmosphere, I couldn't think of any place I'd rather be.
I tilted my head back, soaking up the newly appearing sunlight, unable to take my mind off Ethan and that girl.
Who did she think she was?
Pretty quickly after she'd turned up the night before, she'd taken Ethan so the two of them could 'catch up'. I hadn't seen either of them since, and I don't think I really wanted to- seeing Ethan trail after her like a lost puppy made me feel sick.
"Um, pardon, excuse me.." I looked up, snapping out of my daydream to see a gorgeous, dark haired boy looking down at me, holding a camera- not too different to mine.
"Are you Mia?" He asked me.
I just stared at him, speechless.
"A-Are you British!?" I managed to choke out.
"My name's Josh, actually, but yes, I am indeed British." He said, as I stared wide-eyed at him.
"You're Mia?" He tried to ask me again.
"H-how did you know that?" I asked, confused and dazed.
"I'm here on a summer job," he said, holding up his camera and running his hand through his hair. "For the same company as you.. Um, I'm not sure if you've been contacted, but we're supposed to shoot together- I'm not really sure why, but yeah.." He said with a cute shrug.
"Okay.." I breathed.
"Well, shall we get started?" He asked me, with the most adorable grin, showing his dimples, as I drooled over him, I followed his steps, as he took us along the beach, to find the best angles and areas to shoot.

Rachel's POV
Today was beach day. Santa Monica pier and Venice Beach.
To say I was excited was an understatement.
As soon as I woke up, I changed into my swimsuit in seconds, tying my hair into a quick messy bun, grabbing my sun lotion and sunglasses, seeing Mia's empty bed- and assuming she'd gone out to take pictures, and I was out of the door in seconds.
I quickly knocked on Skye and Sydney's door, impatient to get out and explore.
"Jeeez, girl, calm yourself!" Sydney mumbled, opening the door.
Well, Sydney clearly wasn't a morning person..
Which was pretty weird because she was acting the complete opposite to her usual, hyper self.
"Oh, shush, Sydney. We're ready..let's go!" Skye said, pulling Sydney out of the door and locking it behind her.
We made our way to the twins' and Ryan's room, so I rapped on the door as Skye went off to wake the other boys, and Sydney tried to make a bed on the floor of the hotel corridor, laying down to get a few minutes extra sleep.
"BOYS BOYS BOYS BOYS COMEE ONNN LET'S GOOO!!" I shouted, giggling, as the boys emerged from their room, looking tired and disheveled.
Well, they clearly weren't morning people, a lot like my good friend Sydney here, who was still lying on the floor of the hotel room..
"OKAY!!" Skye shouted.
"LET'S GOOO!!"

Grayson's POV
We found a cute little diner to have breakfast in, not too far from the beach, and texted Mia to meet us there as soon as she could.
"So, Eth," I started, chewing through a mouthful of chocolate chip pancake. "Who the frick is this Arielle chick?"
"Yeah dude, she's hot!" Dylan said, putting his arm up for a high-five.
Ethan just kinda sat there awkwardly.
"Okayy then... Um well you know I went to that camp a couple of summers ago? Yeah, well I met her there.." He mumbled.
The girls were all looking at him disapprovingly. Clearly, they didn't like this chick, and to be honest, I don't think I did either.
"She's busy today..but um, I invited her along for tomorrow.." He mumbled, nearly whispering.
I heard a groan come from the girls, and a cheer erupt from Dylan.
"Sorry..?" Ethan muttered, unsurely.

Mia's POV
"Hey, Josh- I should probably head off, my friends are waiting for me, but you can tag along with us tomorrow, if you'd like.." I offered, shyly.
"Sure, I can't wait!" He smiled, as I gave him a quick hug before grabbing my camera and heading back to the guys.

Ryan's POV
"YAAS BITCHES LET'S HIT THE BEACH!!" Sydney squealed, back to her usual self, after the clock had hit twelve.
We grabbed a quick ride over there, and it was already buzzing.
"OH MY GOD LOOK!! I SEE A PIER. I SEE CANDYFLOSS. AND I SEE A FAIR!!" Sydney squealed again, to say she was excited didn't even start to explain it.
"Hey, Gray- Sydney wants to head to the pier, I'll go with her, and we'll meet up with you guys later.." I said quickly, as Sydney grabbed onto my arm, and we were on our way to the pier.
She was so excited, and it was 100% cute! She was literally bouncing up and down, like a little kid, and I couldn't help but chuckle.
"Let's play some of these games!!" She said, grabbing my hand and pulling me along.
