The Switch

Chapter 1-Dreams With A Twin

"PASS TO ME PASS TO ME!" my little 3 year old body screamed. As faint as it was I saw clearly another little boy in front of me. I thought I was looking in a mirror because he looked exactly like me. From afar at least. He was sitting down in the backyard of my old house with a little beginner puzzle as I was running around with a little soccer ball. I had kicked it over to him but he had just looked at it. He shook his head now pouting his lips. 

"Harry, momma said no." He said returning back to puzzle. I stood watching the two little kids. I was beyond confused on what was going on. The little boy said that his name was Harry. So that was me right? I watched myself as a little kid run back to the other little boys playing in the backyard. 

"Wait!" I screamed running after myself but it was too late. My little self had disappeared into thin air. Like a ghost. I blinked a couple times trying to recap what I just saw. I turned around and saw the other little boy at his puzzle. I quickly ran up to him. My face went blank when I drew closer to the toddler. He was a spitting image of myself when I was 3 but with piercing brown eyes. Unlike my green ones. I bent down to his level as the warm Cheshire reflected off of his golden blonde locks. It was so bright it was almost blinding. He looked up at me and smiled.

"Hello." he said shyly. I stayed quiet thinking.

"You know me?" I asked him. He shook his head up and down setting down his puzzle. He set is little hands in his lap standing.

"Yes I do. You are me." He said before running off into the sun disappearing into thin air. I got out and started running after him.

"Wait, wait!" I shouted realizing I was too late. I stood out of breath looking around.

"Harry..." I heard a woman's voice.

I fluttered my eyes open to see my mum. I looked at her and sat up quickly seeing myself in my room. 

"Are you alright hun? You were screaming in your sleep?" She said with a worried facial express.

So it was a dream? Another one?

"Uh yes yes I am fine." I said staring out the window at my backyard. She looked at me with a skeptical look but nodded.

"Well there is breakfast downstairs when you are ready." She said before exited the room. I swung my legs over my bed grabbing some sweats on the floor most likely dirty from the day before. I walked over to my dresser checking my phone.

1 NEW MESSAGE-Louis Tomlinson

3 MISSED CALLS-Simon Cowell

I checked the message first.

Morning lad! Meet us in the studio at noon, we will run the single then we are all going over to the mall at... somewhere I cant remember the name of. But anyways we have a signing then an interview. Busy day so don't forget to have breakfast! xxxx

I sighed out and clicked on the phone app and recalled Simon. I listened to a couple rings before a familiar voice.

"Don't have much time to talk but you need to be in London tomorrow morning at 6am for a solo photo shoot. See you there must be going though, goodbye Harry." He said hastily before hanging up. I rolled my eyes and threw my phone back on the table to start getting ready.

"I'll just have a banana." I told my mum as she offered bacon to me. She smiled and ripped a banana from the bunch handing it to me.

"Thanks." I said as I jumped onto the counter swinging my legs back and forth as I scarfed the banana. Man I was hungry. 

"So, want to tell me about your dream?" She said out of the blue.

"What do you mean?" I asked confused.

"Well you were screaming a lot last night. Sounded like..." She trailed off. I widened my eyes.

"NO! No... I swear I wasn't having that kind of dream." I said feeling my cheeks fill with redness and my face rising 20 degrees. She laughed.

"So then what was it?" She asked now completely interested.

"Well if you really must know..." I said finishing off the banana.

"This is the third night in a row I've had the same dream. What it is is me as a 3 year old playing in the backyard of our old house. Then I see myself kick the ball over to another little boy who looks exactly like me only with big brown eyes. But the brown eyed boy refuses saying 'momma said no.' Then, my toddler self, disappears somewhere. So I go up to the other little boy and he keeps said that I'm him..." I saw dazing off remembering the dream like it really happened. My mom was dead stop staring at me. Her face was drained of color and she looked scared.

"Mum? You alright?" I asked. She snapped out of her trance and looked at me again.

"Yes. I am fine. Just-Thats a strange dream." She said with nervousness dripping in her voice. It was almost shaky like she was scared.

"Yeah but it was just a dream." I said shaking it off. She looked down at her feet.

"Yeah, a dream." She repeated. I looked at her strangely.

"Well don't you have to be somewhere at noon? Best be getting ready!" She said changing the subject and leaving the room. Why was she all weird? I thought to myself. I got up from the kitchen and walked to my room humming 'Forever Young' while I proceeded to get ready.

"So what did you get?" Niall asked me.

"Underwear, condoms, a bra, phone numbers, so fan mail, I don't know the usual I guess." We said as we sat around the studio after our signing. We always do this. Sit around and say the weird things fans give us. Usually I would find this more amusing but my mind can't stop wondering.

"Did you hear that Harry?" I heard Zayn say.

"Uh sorry what?" I said looking at him. They chuckled.

"Never mind lad." He said laughing. I stood up.

"I'm going to head back home. I knackered so I will see you guys tomorrow." I said grabbing my keys and coat.

"Oh Harry come on! We were going to all grab a drink!" Louis said disappointed.

"Go without me. I'll be fine." I said half smiling as I walked out of the building. As I drove home my mind was not focused. I had all these thoughts in my mind but I couldn't seem to shake them. As I arrived home I was about to hit the bed for the night when I heard my mum talking in her room.

"... yes its defiantly that. I know it is because I remember that day. Him and Edward...What are we going to do we agreed never to let them meet...Alright I'll do my best to keep him from bringing it up. Goodbye Henry." She said before hanging up. Henry? Who was that? And who is "Him and Edward"? I stood thinking for a second then I heard my mother start making her way towards the door. I ran as fast and as quietly as I could to my room so she didn't know I was spying. Hopefully she didn't hear me.
