Start It All Over Again (Harry Styles)

Chapter 16 (Harry)

I am with the girl that I loved ever since. It feels so great to have her by my side again; to do all the things we did back then. It just feels surreal. Having her with me again. The worst part is she doesn't remember me. I don't even know if I should be happy or not. There's a part of me that hurt about that. I will do everything for her; to remember all the times we had together even if it means sacrificing. She deserves to know. It may be painful but it will be somehow better.

We're at their beach resort today. I've never been here before. We were all having a good time. It feels so good to be in this place after all the stress we have encountered and such. I went to the veranda of the beach house. One by one, I recalled all the moments that I've had with her. First, she bumped into me. That was the moment of truth. If just by staring at me, she will remember something; but there was no luck in there. She just recognized me as Harry Styles from a boy band. She never changed. The way she talked to me; she was the same. And the words she uttered when we were in my bedroom, "Everything happens for a reason." No doubt. She is still the way she is. Whenever she comforts me, she's always doing that to me.

The second we held hands, I can feel the familiar warmth of her hand. How it fits exactly to mine and the softness of it has never changed.  I love the way she easily gets red. She is like an open book when she's like that, you can distinguish what she feels. And the time when we were on the bedroom again. I turned into my cheeky self and I remembered the times when we were like that two years ago. Teasing her and forcing her to tell me that I am hot. She never admits it so we end up tickling each other. We got to the point wherein we're on the bed already. I was on top of her and my face is only inches away from her. I was tempted to kiss her lips but I didn't. I teased her once more and I moved my face closer. I was about to kiss her at that time but I am so relieved that Zayn came. Thinking of those, I found myself smiling alone and it feels so good.

"Harry?" Someone said behind me. I turned around and it was Louis.

"Yes?" I asked, the smile still evident on my face.

"Are you okay?" He looked at me quizzically.

"Of course I am! It's a very good and wonderful day, isn't it?" I said it with my hands doing gestures.

"Sure." he chuckled. "You're going nuts." he shook his head and added, "How was it?"

"What are you talking about?" I knit my eyebrows in confusion.

"The two of you. It seems like you're having a good time already." he answered. I smiled again as if it is the most normal thing to do.

"I missed her so much, Louis. All those things we did back then, we can do it again."

"But she doesn't remember you." Those words hurt like knives.

"I know. It's fine with me. I will make her remember again."

"Even if that will hurt the both of you?"

"Yes. I am willing to take the risks. No matter what happens, I will get her back."

Louis smiled at me. "Then you can do it, Harry. It may take long but eventually you'll get her back."

"I couldn't do it without a best friend helping me." I winked at him which caused him to laugh.

We talked more for a few minutes. El will be back soon. We decided to continue on our plan wherein I will text Katie. I still plan to call her Katie because I am just used to it. Louis asked me to come down so I can join the others on the beach. I agreed and I went to my room to get changed.

I got out and everyone seems to be having fun. I saw Caitlyn sitting by the seashore all by herself. The sun is setting already. The day came by so fast. I walked towards her.
