All I wanted was to learn how to play the guitar. I never asked for my teacher to be a boy in the worlds biggest boyband. But I'm not complaining.

Harry is a jock, simple as that. He has always been the guy who every other person in the school wishes they were. He is living the 'good life' with his two best friends Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik, plus he has all the girls wrapped around his finger. His life revolves around his perfect, straight boy jock image. Then one day out of the blue a bump appears in the perfect, flat road that is his life, and this bump is called Niall Horan. Niall’s dad has been moved from Mullingar, Ireland to Holmes Chapel by his work and Niall must leave his whole childhood behind. Something about his blonde hair and vibrant blue eyes has Harry reeling and soon enough he can’t stop thinking about the new boy that couldn't care less about him. For the first time in his life Harry is trying to win someone over and failing. This angers him and he resorts to bullying Niall. Niall makes Harry feel starstruck, (even though he has trouble showing it) but Niall despises him for bullying him every day and just wants him out of his life. But that is kind of hard to do when he moves in right next to the boy he hates more than anything.

I've always hated Harry. Well not since always. We used to be best friends but we got into a big fight when we were around 15 years old. It was because of a girl. That stupid girl. She ruined our friendship. I hated her too but I still hated Harry more. We were supposed to be enemies for life until something unexpected happened on that normal Friday in July.

*BOYXBOY EXTREME* Innocent, pure Harry with dark Niall. What will Harry do? Stay, fight, learn to love? What will Niall do to protect his claim? Use fear, charm, love? Could be everything in between. *warning; includes swearing, smut, other*

This is the sequel (continuation) of After. Hardin and Tessa's relationship will be tested in ways she never expected, but he knew of all along.
