♡ Alyssa’s POV ♡

“Hi Harry”, I uttered as I stood before the face I used to love. I could tell he was still surprised to see me, as his eyes wondered all over my face with his mouth hanging slightly open. I looked away from his unbreakable stare when Jordan coughed beside him, breaking Harry from his trance.

“I, uhm… I…” he stuttered, unable to formulate his words.

“Well, see you around then”, I answered when I realized I’d stood there long enough for him to speak. I grabbed Shailene’s arm and started walking towards the empty booths that were lined up along the sides of the club. Once we were both seated opposite to each other, I looked back from where we’d come from. Jordan and Harry stood talking to each other; in a way it looked as if Harry was trying to explain something to him but I couldn’t hear anything over the loud music that blared from the speakers all around us.

Shailene suddenly laughed, “Wow, I can’t be he didn’t say anything. You still leave him speechless.”

“Ha ha ha, you’re so funny. He probably didn’t expect me to ever come back… oh well; I’ll stay out of his way. No big deal”, I replied, sighing. Not even a single response to a hello. Wow.  

“Good. Let’s enjoy ourselves while we’re here”, she yelled, handing me a shot of I don’t know what and taking one for herself. “Ready, on three. One…”

“Two”, I continued.

“Three!” And we drowned the drink as it left a burning sensation down my throat.

“Oh damn, that was strong. I want more”, I laughed, as she got another set and the night finally set in.

☆ Harry’s POV ☆

“Hi Harry”, she said once she was fully facing me. She looked exactly like she did when she left, although I think her hair grew out a little more and she seemed a bit taller. I was lost for words; nothing was coming out of my mouth. I just stared at her, examining every inch of her face when she looked away.

“I, uhm… I…” I started. C’mon Harry, say something. But what am I supposed to say? What are we supposed to talk about? Oh, shut up brain. Say hi to her at least! Say it, now!

“Well, see you around then”, she said after a while, dragging Shay with her somewhere far into the room. Why am I so stupid? I’d been planning this since I found out she was coming back, why the hell did I just freeze up? Oh god.

“You’re the stupidest person I have ever met”, Jordan groaned from beside me.

“I know…” I replied, simply. And I did.

“You could have said hi at least you moron!”

“I know! I just froze up okay! I haven’t seen her in ages and the last time I did, she looked like she was going to cry which was miserable. You have to understand Jordan, step in my shoes! I’m just shocked to see her back; I didn’t think she’d show up here tonight. I know I should have said something, I was trying but I lost my thoughts. I promise I’ll go talk to her later, just let it sink in”, I responded. I shouldn’t have been yelling because it probably looked like I was mad at him, but the stupid music in there was so damn loud.

He placed a hand on my shoulder, “relax bro, just do your thing”, and I nodded while we grabbed some drinks and sat down at the bar. There were people around everywhere but my mind was fixated on talking to Alyssa tonight. I watched from in between people as she sat back with Shay, drowning shot after shot. Damn, she was going to get wasted tonight.
