They say opposites attract.

Chapter 2

She looked exactly how Harry had remembered her. He hadn't seen her in over a year, since, well, it all started and Harry didn't know how to react. In front of him stood Jay- Louis' mum. Her and Harry's mum were laughing about something but Harry couldn't hear their conversation. He was frozen still. Anne and Jay were the reason Louis and Harry became friends in the first place. Anne and Jay were in a bookclub together and then became good friends. Jay would come over regularly but not usually when Harry was around.

"Harry! Harry come in here!" Anne called for Harry from the kitchen. He had just gotten back from school and wasn't in the mood for this at all. Nonetheless, he approached the kitchen to see what his mum wanted. He walked in to meet a beautiful lady, looked around 30/40 sitting with his mum. His eyebrows raised in confusion and his eyes darted to his mum, not knowing what to say. "Harry.. This is Jay! My friend from bookclub that I was telling you all about!" Anne explained with a bright smile. Anne had mentioned Jay on several occasions but not with grave content. Just explaining how the other women in bookclub weren't that interesting but Jay was quite funny and quirky. She was different and her and Anne immediately hit it off. When she came to visit Harry would be out with friends or in school so he didn't really get the chance to meet her.

"Hi Harry, I'm Jay." The woman brightly smiled and extended her hand out for Harry to shake. Her smile was beautiful. Teeth were perfect. Her smile was quite recognisable but Harry couldn't quite put his finger on where he had seen it before. Harry returned the smile and shook the woman's hand.

"I'm Harry." He stated with a chuckle. Well aware she knew exactly who he was and everything else about him, he just didn't know what else to say and that was the best he could come up with. Jay laughed along with him. "My mum speaks very highly of you." He added, thinking it would be something nice for his mum. Jay smiled and nudged Anne, mumbling a 'of course she did'

"Harry do you know my son? He's with you in school! Your age too! His name is Louis, Louis Tomlinson. Cutest boy there is." She asked, all sparkly eyed. Harry nodded, knowing Louis but knowing nothing more. He was with Louis in a few classes, yeah but they never officially spoke. Louis was quite a funny lad- always shouting out jokes in class that made Harry laugh. He was also really good at football from what Harry's seen. Louis and Harry weren't at all in similar friendship groups which is why they never really hung out.

"I know him ya, quite a funny lad." Harry settled on saying. Not wanting to disappoint Jay. Jay nodded at this, clearly agreeing that Louis had a sense of humour on him.

"Jay, you should bring him over one day so him and Louis could become friends!" Anne exclaimed. Jay quickly agreed and clapped giddily, obviously happy with the idea. Harry smiled along, not knowing what to say. He didn't mind getting to know Louis. He didn't seem like a bad lad after all. 

"Harry! Come say hi to Jay!" Anne exclaimed once laying her eyes on Harry. Snapping out of his flashback, Harry approached both women with a hesitant smile on his face. Harry never explained what happened to Anne, simply saying they've had a 'falling out' and that they 'don't speak anymore' considering they only spent a month together, Anne wasn't shocked or anything however, she was a bit confused since they seemed inseparable. They seemed to have gotten along really well. Anne knew there was more to the story because every time she would mention the Tomlinson family, Harry would tense up and dismiss the subject but she never pressed on. After that, Jay didn't come over much and Anne didn't talk about her a lot.

"Hi, Harry." Jay greeted him.

"Hi." Harry responded, stretching out his hand to shake Jay's. Jay shook her head at this.

"I know we haven't seen each other in a while Harry but that doesn't mean we're strangers! Give me a hug!" She beamed engulfing Harry in a hug. Harry hugged her back, feeling warm in her embrace. "Oh my, how tall you've grown! If only Louis grew at this rate!" She giggled. Harry smiled but the smile didn't quite reach his eyes. Yeah, the joke was funny but the mention of Louis' name had him cringing. That name brings the worst of memories. Memories Harry wished he could erase. In his eyes, Louis was a horrible person.
