Between Us [Spaces Sequel]

I was in shock, not sure if I could speak. He remembered me. It seemed like a miracle.
You are hallucinating, aren't you?
"Scarlett?" Harry repeated.
"Hi," I said.
Great, good job, Scarlett.
"Oh my God," he said. "It's you."
He hugged me tightly. I couldn't react, but eventually hugged back. I inhaled his smell and buried my face in his neck.
"Scarlett!" Somebody yelled behind me. I pulled away and looked around. It was Kaya.
"S-Sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt," she mumbled. "I'll be at the bar."
And with that she left.
I turned back to Harry.
"What are you doing here?" Harry asked and smiled happily.
"I live here now. I go to college," I replied.
"It's good to see you," he said.
"It is," I replied.
And that was followed by an awkward silence. "You want a drink?"
I nodded and followed Harry to the bar. I ordered my drink and faced him.
"I'm sorry," I said, looking into his beautiful eyes.
"What for?"
"For being so stupid. I shouldn't have stopped texting you."
"Yes, you should. Your dad would've hurt you... I tried texting you, but I had a new phone and I didn't remember your number."
"I tried reaching you, too," I replied, making him smile.
"Well, let's exchange numbers then," he said. I took a pen out of my bag and wrote my number onto a paper that I handed him.
"Just text me," I said.
"Oh, trust me. I will," he said
We talked for the whole evening. About the X-Factor, university, Harry's tour. Kaya went home earlier and I stayed until 2 am, talking to Harry.
Harry dropped me off at my flat. "Thanks."
"No problem, Scar," he replied.
I kissed him on the cheek and left the car.

When I got into the flat, Kaya had already gone to sleep. I entered my room as quietly as possible and shut the door behind me.
What happened tonight seemed surreal. I met Harry and he remembered me. And he was not mad at me. I smiled and changed into some comfortable clothes and then checked my phone.

???: Scar!!!

I knew it was Harry.

Scarlett: Nice to hear from you, Mr Styles.

Harry: I can't believe I found you.

Scarlett: I'm glad you did.

Harry: So am I.

Scarlett: I'd love talking to you, but I have a pretty important lecture tomorrow, so I should probably sleep.

Harry: okay...

Harry: i really like you Scar
