At around noon, she told me she wanted to go for a swim so I told her I'd join too and we could go kayaking.

We got ready and we walked over to the lake. We both jumped at the same time and we swam, talked, laughed and just created good times. It felt just indescribable. When we decided to go on a little boat ride, it was already about 1:15 pm. We had been swimming for over and hour though it only felt like minutes.

"When you're having a good time, you just don't realize how fast time goes by."

"Yeah..." 

She sat in the front of the kayak and I at the back. We decided we would be bad kids and not wear lifejackets. 

When we arrived at the middle of the lake though, we sort of regretted it. We didn't know where we were going but we didn't care.

We got tired at around 1:50 pm so we decided that we'd pay a visit to the people on random other sites. If there was nobody at the cottage then we would just be invading their property, but it didn't matter. At least not in that moment.

We were sitting on the side and our feet was in the water. We just talked and looked around. Then since the owners of the cottage where we stopped had swings, we walked over and went on them, since there was nobody around. At least that's what we thought. 

"Hey!"

The swings we were on were the old ones and they were those tire swings, so we couldn't escape fast enough from whoever was calling us.

"What are you doing on my swing?" We heard a boy's voice shout.

I turned around and held Steph in my arms. I understood why, his voice was a bit intimidating.

"It's okay babe." I whispered to her as I turned around and saw a boy who looked familiar.

"Oh hi...you again." he said and flipped his hair.

"Do I know you?" I said. "I mean you sound familiar I just don't..."

"Louuuu! Stoppp!" I heard my head say and I got a massive headache. As I closed my eyes, it came flashing back to me again. It was the scene that I experienced. The last time I've had a proper conversation with y parents. His face appeared and when I opened my eyes I saw Harry. 

I don't know how it happened or why, but I just let out a very loud scream. 

Steph was blocking her ears and Haz looked at me like he'd seen a ghost.

"You okay?" 

"I'm sorry ok I just...what are you even doing here?"

"My parents used to own this cottage...we'd come here all the time and I guess it always made me feel better cause I had such good times here...but what are you doing here? We meet again after a long time..."

Stephanie came towards me and had unblocked her ears, "you know him?" 

"Yeah..." I said softly.

"Louis can I talk to you?" 

I walked over and when he realized that Stephanie was following us, he turned around, "Privately..."

"Right sorry..." she said and there was a long silence.

We walked over to the little bench and Haz flipped his hair and put his hands in his pockets before starting to talk.

"Um...I...know...I got mad...before...but....um...I...just wanted....to...say that...I'm over that and I just....want to maybe start over? Can we just...be friends? Give me a....chance...? Please...I....won't....let....you down...I....prom...ise..."

"Took you a while for you to finish your short speech there." I said and giggled.

"Friends?" I said and put my hand forward.

We shook hands. 

"I'm Harry Styles. And you are?"

"Louis Tomlinson." 

"Nice to meet you."

We both walked back to Steph and I told him I was sorry for invading his property and privacy then Stephanie and I kayaked to our cottage. 

We spent the whole day together and then afterwards we watched the sunset together. I dropped her home and headed to a Cafe to think over things and everything that had happened. I then went back home to just relax.
