A New Turn

Chapter 13

HARRY POV

"Oh, that must be the rest of the boys."

I stood up from to couch to go and get the door. I'd invited them over because I couldn't wait for Caitlin to meet them. I knew they would all get along really well.

"Hey Harold!" They all seem to chime that at one point or another.

They all strolled passed me and in through the apartment, straight into the lounge room where Louis and Caitlin were.

"Hey Lou what's up?" I heard Niall as he sat down on the couch next to him and he leaned across to say hi to Caitlin and shook her hand. Zayn and Liam did the same thing before sitting down on the other couch where I had been.

"So Caitlin, how's London so far?" Liam asked Caitlin a question.

"Yeah I really like it so far! I feel super jet lagged though and everything is really new but I can't wait to get settled in! So tell me about you guys."

Zayn spoke first. "I don't really know what to tell you but I'm from Bradford, I'm single and my favourite colour is blue. Yeah sorry that's not very exciting."

Then Liam spoke "Ok well I'm from Wolverhampton, I'm going out with a girl named Danielle and my favourite colour is purple."

And then Niall spoke "Ok well I'm from Mullingar in Ireland, I'm going out with an Australian girl actually and her name is Brianna, and my favourite colour is green."

"Hey did Brianna by any chance used to live in Sydney and here playing basketball?

"Um yes...Are you a stalker or something?"

"No no not at all! I met her in Sydney! I lived there for about a year doing dancing crap and we used to go to the same gym! I knew she lived here so that was a lucky guess!"

"Hey that's awesome! I'll get her to come over sometime!"

"That would be great! Small world isn't it?"

NIALL POV

It was awesome how Caitlin knew Bri. It truly was a small world.

Bri has been my girlfriend for about the past year or so. She moved her because she received a basketball scholarship at Oxford University. She was amazing. The way she moved around the court was so spectacular. I always feared for the other team. I didn't want them to get hurt with Bri and her mad skills.

She wasn't in London all the time but she was here quite often, on weekends and in her holidays.

She was beautiful, enough said.

Caitlin seemed really awesome. Louis whispered to me earlier that she suggested that they watch Anchorman and I was shocked. I don't know a lot of girls who enjoy a good Will Ferrel movie like that.

I wasn't that into dancing but I did really want to see her. When I dance, I look like an idiot. But I really did want to see her and what she does. After all, I could always appreciate a good dancer.

"So Niall, when did you move to England?' Caitlin asked me a question.

"Oh only earlier this year! After we got the record deal, we all kind of just moved into this building. Being away from home is hard at times but I love London. I'm sure you will probably feel the same way."

Harry and Louis snuck into the kitchen to grab some lunch. Thank god, I was starving. Then again, I always was.

CAITLIN POV

Liam, Zayn and Niall were all great. They were all so nice and caring. I couldn't wait to get to know them better.

It was so weird knowing that Bri was Niall's girlfriend. I hadn't seen her in person since my last trip to the gym. We had texted since then but not much else. I couldn't wait to see her again. But I was wondering how her and Niall met?

"So Niall, how did you and Bri meet?"

"Actually Liam set us up! His sister Ruth was an umpire at the courts and got to know Bri. Bri had told her that she had been pretty lonely lately so Ruth asked Liam and Liam told me about her and so on and so on."

Just as Louis and Harry were walking back into the room, Zayn asked me a pretty big question that Louis hadn't actually asked me yet.

"So Caitlin, are you seeing anyone?"

I quickly shot a look to Louis. He stopped in his tracks and had his eyes fixated on me as a hush filled the room.

"Ahhhhhh not at the moment." I heavy breath before saying the next bit.

"My last boyfriend Justin and I dated for about 2 years. I almost thought that I loved him and everything was perfect until he was a total dickface whore who decided he would cheat on me with my so called 'best friend' in my own house. After that, I lost the 2 most important people in my life and I had to buy a new bed because I refused to sleep there ever again. I've been super lonely ever since. Whoops, sorry for the rant."

LOUIS POV

After Niall told Caitlin about his journey from Ireland to England, Harry signalled to me to come into the kitchen with him. It was getting around lunchtime so I figured he wanted me to help him with that.

As we entered the kitchen, Harry headed straight over to the pantry to grab so,e chips and some bread to make some sandwiches. I went to the fridge to grab random sandwich ingredients and we both met back at the island bench.

We made everyone the same because we knew all of them would eat anything, particularly Niall. I spoke up to Harry.

"Harry, Caitlin and I have so much in common man."

"See this is why I am setting you guys up! I knew you would be perfect for each other!"

"Harry I don't really want to say this but, you are a genius."

"I know." He gloated as he threw the last sandwich down on the plate.

Harry grabbed the sandwiches and I grabbed the chips as we both entered the lounge room again. Suddenly Zayn asked Caitlin a question, almost as if it was on queue.

"So Caitlin, are you seeing anyone?"

I was falling so hard for Caitlin that I hadn't even asked her if she was single. Jeez, I'm stupid.

But Harry wasn't that much of a douchebag was he? He wouldn't let me chase after a committed woman would he?

"Ahhhhhh not at the moment."

Thank freaking god.

She took a long breath before she spoke again.

She proceeded to tell the group about Justin. The guy who cheated on her in her own bed and with her best friend. I thought Emma was the worst that you could get. Apparently, there was way worse.

After she finished her story, all I wanted to do with run over, hug her, cup her face, kiss her deeply and tell her that I would never ever to such a thing to such a gorgeous girl. But that was never going to happen.

Everyone was quiet before Liam spoke.

"What a douche. Caitlin if you ever need to talk, we are all her for you. That's god damn awful sweetie."

Her sweet little grin appeared on her face. God she was cute, even when she was sad.

Harry and I placed our half homemade lunch down on the table. Before we could grab one, only 2 sandwiches remained and a few chips. God these people were animals.
