Nothing Stays the Same

Familiar Faces

Harry's Pov
I contemplated rather if I should go or not. To my high school reunion that is. I wanted to go to see who got fat and who married who. And who is still a bitch. Probably Louis Tomlinson, my high school bully. He hated me so much but never had a valid reason. I finally decided to go just because. Hopefully nobody will start a scene...

*at the reunion*
"Oh. Pardon me, didn't mean to bump into you." A familiar voice spoke. I turned around and said, "Oh no. You're fine. My bad." That guy that bumped into me looked so damn familiar but I couldn't put a name to his face. I shook my head and walked away. After about three songs and a couple glasses of fruit punch, I ran into my old high school friend, Niall. "Hey Hazza! I haven't seen you in like..." He trailed off into thought. "10 years?" I replied. "Man,has it really been that long?" "I suppose so." I said while chuckling softly. "So...... Are you married?" Niall asked. "Sadly, no." I answered. "What about you?" I asked. "Yeah my husband is around here somewhere. I couldn't believe what I just heard. I never knew Niall was ga... "Hey babe." A voice interrupted my thoughts. "Hey Harry. You remember Liam right?" "Yeah. Yeah I do. How are you?" "I'm great. What about you?" "Not so bad myself." I replied. "Well Li, I'm tired. Let's go home." "But Ni, we got here like 30 minutes ago..." "I know. I'll explain in the car." Niall said with a smirk. That boy was surely something else.
While I was dancing, I accidentally bumped into someone. I turned around to apologized and met eyes with a blue eyed boy. Why on earth does he look so familiar? I once again shook my head and kept dancing.

"Here let me get that for you." Somebody said. "Thank you." I replied. "Harry Styles?" The voice asked. "Yeah that's me. Excuse me, but who are you?" I asked. "You don't remember me?" He asked. "I'm really sorry. I don't..." "Louis Tomlinson. Your high school 'bully'." Shit. "You look nice Styles. Say.. You aren't married are you?" "Nope. I'm a single man." "Really you're too sexy to be alone." "Excuse me?" I questioned. "Why do you think I bullied you so much in high school? Because I was in fucking love with you. And I kinda still am..." Louis stuttered. Well then... "That's funny. Because I've had a crush on you since freshman year when you moved here." I said while scratching the back of my neck. "Would you like to go to the coffee shop downtown and catch up a bit?" "Uh.. Sure. Yeah. That sounds lovely." I said grinning. I couldn't believe it. It felt like a dream and I was about to wake up at any minute.

*at coffee shop*
"Wait. Are you being for real right now?" I asked, laughing. Louis just told me something bizarre and couldn't just believe it. "Yeah..." He said smiling, his blue eyes twinkling. "You have such a beautiful smile." I complimented. "Thank you." He said, blushing. "You have nice curls." He complimented back. "Thank you." I said. "I should get going. I have to get up early for work tomorrow." I said while getting up from the cushioned booth. "Wait. Could we exchange numbers...? So we can like meet up again..." Louis asked. "Of course." I handed him my phone and he handed me his. "There you go." I said handing him my phone back. "Thank you so much. And I'm sorry I was so mean to you back then." Louis apologized. "No no. It's fine. At least I know why now." I said, winking. "Goodbye Haz." "Goodbye Lou."

As I was dozing off that night I received a text message from an anonymous number.
"Hey. This is Louis. Thank you for tonight."
"No no. Thank you :)"
"I think I am falling in love again all over."
I stared blankly at my phone until the screen went black. Well I guess nothing really does stay the same.
