Maddy's POV

I walked past him and into the living area, sitting on the sofa. He joined me a few seconds later

"Your apartment is lovely." he complimented

"Thanks." I said with a half-smile, finally starting to wake up a bit

"I've missed you." he said

I took a deep breath "I've missed you too Harry,"

A huge smile grew on his face and he began to say something but I cut him off

"But I've spent the last three months getting on with my life, getting over you. Well trying to, I don't want to keep going in circles with you."

"Maddy, please. we haven't seen each other in three months" he said

"I'm sorry, but I just don't think I can go through it all again." I said quietly

"Can, can we try to at least be friends? Like we were before everything?" he asked

I stayed quiet for a minute

I've spent the last few months getting over the boy with curly hair and now he is in my apartment asking to be friends.

"Sure." I smiled, not letting myself over think it

"Can I go back to my bed now?" I laughed

Harry's POV

That laugh, it is so perfect.

"Sure, sorry. Bye Mad's." I smiled, getting up and exiting her apartment.

It killed me not to kiss her goodbye or even to hug her. Normally she would have offered me to stay the night as it was to late to drive home. She would have hugged me, laughed at something I had said.

We probably would have stayed up talking to each other until she fell asleep, then her alarm would go off early in the morning and she would complain about being too tired to go to work then she would blame me for keeping her up so late, but I'd make her a cup of tea and some toast while she was in her shower so when she got out she would smile and kiss my cheek, thanking me. 

Probably.

If I didn't mess things up the first time.

If I hadn't got drunk and slept with that girl, none of this would have happened. Maddy and I would probably be together, happily.

I ran a hand through my hair as I got out of the elevator and exited the building, getting into my car and starting the engine

Friends? Why did I even say that? I'm such an idiot. Friends. How am I ever going to be able to be her friend? 

I guess I'll just need to try.

Maddy's POV

I woke up the next morning to my alarm yelling at me. I groaned, rolling out of bed and having a quick shower

Another full day of filming. After my shower I made myself some tea and a bowl of cereal.

My mind came back to Harry last night. Friends? I could do that, it was sure as hell going to be a lot less heartbreak than being together.

I finished my cereal and pulled on black denim shorts and a white crop top, I stepped into black boots, brushed my hair and my teeth then grabbed my bag. There was no point in styling my hair or doing my make up if it would get done on set anyway. I walked out of my apartment, out of the building and started the twenty minute walk to set. 

It was a warm morning and the streets were busy as always. I finally got to the studios, showed my ID and got let in. I walked into my dressing room, sitting my bag down when the make-up artist, Declan, came in.

"Hey." I smiled sitting in the make-up chair

"These early mornings are going to kill me." he yawned, started to set all of the make-up out

"Want me to go grab some coffee from catering while you set up?" I offered

"You're a doll." he smiled

I laughed, exiting my dressing room, and through the corridors to catering, I grabbed two cups of coffee and a doughnut for Declan.

"Life safer." he smiled, taking a gulp of the hot liquid.

"Now you're wakened, make me beautiful, dude!" I laughed

"I think I'll need more than a coffee to be able to do that." he teased

"Cheeky little.." I started then there was a knock at the door

"Come in!" I called

Jen, the stylist for the full cast walked in with a rail of clothes

"Morning Mads," she smiled, wheeling the rail in "Right, so today is the party scene. Right?"

"Right." I nodded

"Okaydoke, so you are wearing this, this and these." she pulled out some clothes, hung them up then walked out

After Declan had finished my make-up, I pulled on the grey t-shirt dress, black tights and black boots similar to my own.

"God, I am not late!" Alex, the hairstylist burst in

"I wont tell if you don't." I offered

"Deal." he laughed, plugging in curling irons as I sat down again

"Okay, big chocolate waves today babe." he smiled, running his fingers through my hair

"Sounds good." I smiled

After about thirty minutes, he was covering my hair with hairspray and I was ready

"You look great." he smiled

I did look quite good

"Instagram selfie!" he yelled

I laughed as he pulled out his phone, put on the front camera and pointed it at us

I pouted massively as he grinned, he snapped the picture then uploaded it to instagram.

I laughed and we both left my dressing room, he moved onto someone else and I made my way to set.

"Morning Mad's." Andy smiled as I walked in

"Morning." I replied with a grin

"You know your lines, yeah?" he asked

"Course I do." I nodded

"Great." he smiled

"I have a question though," I started "When we drink, do we get real alcohol?" 

He rolled his eyes and laughed at me "Sure, because I'm going to have a bunch of drunk kids trying to make a movie."

"We're not kids." I pouted

"No Mads, it just water." he laughed, patting my shoulder as he passed

I smiled, sitting down on a sofa and scrolling through twitter on my phone.

"BOO!" A loud voice boomed from behind me, causing me to drop my phone

"Jesus, Taylor." I gasped as he jumped over the sofa, landing neatly beside me laughing

"You're so easy to scare." he laughed

"All actors on set please. All actors to set." A voice over the studio speakers spoke

"Let's go." he smiled, dragging me up and into the set that was made into a house.
