Chapter 2- Reunions

A/N. So I know this is way different from how I wrote "Life of a swiftie" and I really hope you can get use to my new style of writing coz I'm trying new things ❤️ Also TYSM for the lovely comments on chapter 1 💜 I'm so glad you guys are liking this! But anyways, enjoy chapter 2 ;)

And then the door flung open, revealing two familiar old faces, a stranger and...

Harry Styles.

She didn't know how to react, how to feel, but what she's sure about was that she didn't want to remember anything about him.

Her mum knew her past with Harry which made her want to pair her daughter up with Harry Styles' half brother,

Zayn Malik.

Her mother thought maybe her daughter would like someone who's similar to her ex boyfriend, that she can find a replacement if Taylor's not willing to accept a new one.

Taylor's hands started shaking. Her mum is pairing her up with Harry Styles? Her ex boyfriend? Who broke her heart and just left her there?

"Fiona!" Her mum called out to his mother as they all stood up to welcome them to the table.

Her mum and his mum both chit chatted for a moment or two and they all sat down.

Zayn didn't know where to sit. He didn't know this was a "your daughter and my son is single let's pair them up together" drama.

How can mum trick me that this is a family dinner?! He thought.

He was still standing there, he didn't know where to sit. Harry, eventually feeling ashamed of himself of what he did to Taylor 3 years ago, had sat two seats away from Taylor, leaving an empty seat between them.

"Zayn, come on, sit down next to Taylor." His mum smiled.

He and Taylor shared a glance with each other for two seconds and then immediately looked away trying to avoid the awkwardness.

So he's the one mum's pairing me with... Taylor thought looking down at her empty plate.

She let out a breath of relief as the so called Zayn guy came sitting next to her.

"His name is Zayn Malik, talk to her sweetie." Her mum whispered in her ear.

Malik? Aren't they brothers?

"So... What's your name?" She heard a voice from next to her.

She looked up and it was Zayn.

She let out an awkward tiny laugh, "You don't know my name?"

"You're not the only one who's been sent her blindly." He smirked and they laughed.

"I'm Taylor. Taylor Swift." Taylor smiled, putting down the fork she had held for ages and giving him her hand.

"Zayn. Zayn Malik." He smiled back at her and shook her hand." 

"Malik?" Taylor asked curiously looking at him.

"Harry's my half brother. We share different dads." He exclaimed as the food came to their tables.

"Oh... Ok." Taylor simply replied as she didn't even want to hear his name.

The whole time Taylor was trying to avoid eye contact with Harry and he noticed that. He knew how much she hated him after everything he's done to her and wasn't blaming her for that.

He had confirmed that he had no feelings for Taylor and did not want to continue cheating on Taylor and so he broke up with her but he never knew he'd hurt her in such a cruel way that she wouldn't even want to look at him.

Lauren and him didn't last for long. It was only a short two months and it ended with a breakup on the phone after Harry realized how much he needed Taylor because he was everything to Taylor, she gave him everything he wants, needs and doesn't need. He had everything he would need. When he needed water, Taylor would walk miles to find a supermarket to get him some water and that was when Harry realized how much he needed Taylor in his life. But he knew that his pride was too high to go back to taylor and she would never even accept him again.

Taylor looked down at the plate of delicious food which doesn't seem delicious to her at all anymore since there is SOMEONE in this table.

She was bored and somehow a part of her wanted to make Harry regret everything he did to her, some part of her wanted to do an experiment on him.

Should I try and see if he still cares about me? She thought biting her lip.

She then spoke, "So, what do you do for a living?"

Zayn looked at her. "Me?"

Taylor laughed a little and said, "Of course you, who would I be talking to then?!"

Harry heard this.

Of course, not gonna be me.

"I work in my dad's office... Not really a job though, I just hang around and learn from him." He said, "You?"

"I um... Provide ideas for my dad, work on some documents and yeah... Just like you I guess... I 'hang around'." She replied.

They laughed and their mums saw the happy view and fangirled slash fan-momed over it.

"Life of parents who owns the company's kids." Zayn commented and they continued laughing.

Taylor was hoping to gain some reaction from Harry but he showed no interred on it in his face. He was just playing with his food on the plate.

But deep down he knew all too well that he started caring. Not started, but he always had.

I need her. He thought.

But no, it would be impossible. She would've moved on.

"You're not bad." Taylor grinned.

"You're not so bad yourself, other person who hangs around the company." Zayn complimented back and they laughed.

Taylor started feeling that this wasn't a bad blind family date. Zayn was fun and sweet and she would like to be friends with him.

But Zayn was feeling this the other way. He wanted to try getting to know Taylor in the other way. Taylor was exactly what he pictured a "perfect girl" would be, flawless and perfect.

Harry was afraid. Throughout the whole dinner, he was staring at Zayn and Taylor. Whenever Zayn got a little too close to Taylor, Harry would pull Zayn away from Taylor and whisper random things to him to get her out of his mind.
