One week.
One week since that night with Harry.
Two weeks since that fight with Louis.
Two weeks since that breakup with Niall.
Time moves a lot more swiftly the less and less you have on your plate.
I know it was wrong of me, I should have talked to Niall, I needed to talk to Niall. I also needed to talk to Louis.
But in all honesty, I didn't know what to say.

Everyone thought that Harry and I were now a thing because of the awful lie Kelsey decided to spread. So everyone thought that it was true because she had "proof". But in reality, it wasn't really proof at all, people just wanted something to believe in and talk about.
I finally got over my little depression stage, and things started to get back to normal. I ate with Liam, Danielle, and the occasional Perrie and Zayn at lunch. Classes were going better and I was becoming more and more genuinely happy.
The only thing that was holding me back from all the potential happiness I had, was the guilt that still lay on me with Louis and Niall. So on Friday, I got the balls (finally) to want to set things straight. Thankfully time was all they needed, just to cool their jets and get their shit together really.
I texted them both before classes got out,

Hey guys, I know I'm the last person you want to hear from, but we need to talk. Practice room after class?-Reyna

It took a while to receive a response from either of them, but eventually they both agreed.

I waited in the practice room for what felt like hours, just waiting for them to come and deciding on what I wanted to say. I paced back and fourth, playing with my fingers and one in a while plucking a few notes on the piano.
I was just about to go into full on private concert mode when they both walked in.
"Alright, we're here. Let's talk." Louis said. He sounded very bitter. They both put their backpacks down and sat down.
"Well, I've been pacing back and fourth from the second I walked in here because I didn't and still don't know what to say. I think the only thing I can do is apologize to both of you. So Louis, I'm realy sorry for what went down a couple of weeks ago. I completely can see your side of the argument. But I just want you to know that it wasn't the best time for me, so I was really defensive and shouldn't have treated you so unfairly. At the same time, I feel like you could have done the same for me.
And Niall, I'm really sorry about you too..."
I started to tear up at this point. All the emotions that I had associated with him built up in me, and I couldn't help it.
"It wasn't fair of me at all to be so close to Harry and be with you at the same time. I know you guys do not see eye to eye at all, and I understand where my fault lies. I know I really hurt you at the dance, but at the same time, I felt like I wasn't that important to you to begin. Don't get me wrong, there were times, but there were also times where I didn't really feel it at all. I also want to clarify that you believing Kelsey was the thing that hurt me the most. I know I was friends with Harry and I studied with him behind your back in a way, but I would never do something as cruel as to cheat on you with him. Heck, I wouldn't even know how because you were my first real relationship. So I hope that you can also see my side of things and be a little more understanding. And for both of you, I reall do believe that you and Harry and Liam and Zayn can all be friends again, you just really have to give Harry a chance. He wants to be friends again and feels terrible for what he did, you just got to let him in."

They sat there and looked at the ground for a bit, not saying anything. They looked like they were deep in thought. A good couple of minutes passed by when Louis finally said,
"I'm also very sorry for hurting you Reyna. It wasn't fair of me to go off like that, I was just really frustrated myself. As for Harry though, I'm still not sure."
"Thank you Louis, I accept your apology."
Another few minutes of silence passed by as we waited for Niall to say something.
He just sat there in silence, which is not like him.
"Niall, will you please say something?" I pleaded.
He sat there for another minute, then he finally looked at me.
"Reyna, I don't really knw what to say. In all honesty I'm just really hurt. I mean, Harry obviously has feelings for you, and as much as you said it was nothing, I can't help but feel like there was something there. And then Kelsey came and talked to me and I just couldn't hold it in anymore. I was just angry and didn't know what to do, so I went out of character. I accept your apology but it doesn't make me any less hurt."
"I figured. I know, and I feel terrible. Beyond terrible. You were my first real relationship, so I also didn't know what to do. I could have handled it better I know, but I just, I would do anything to make it up to you. And would even love it if we got back together..." I trailed off. I must have wanted that to come out, because I didn't plan for it to.
"No, I think it's better that we stay this way." He said flatly.
"But.. why?" I said tearing up.
"Don't get me wrong Reyna, you were awesome and I has head over heels for you. At the same time, I'm head over heels for my music, and I just want to focus on that so I can get a career going." He said.
"I understand.."
I didn't really know what to think of that honestly. I thought it would be a lot easier. That we would make up and the sunshine I once had would come back again into my life. But that wasn't the case.
"Reyna, we can all still be friends. It takes a great deal of friendship, and compassion to even come and talk it throuh with us. We can be total dicks, yet you still care." Louis said.
I looked at him, and he gave me a big grin.
"We're in this together." Louis said, Niall nodded in agreement.
I smiled at them and we had a mini group hug. When we backed away, I finally said,
"Thank you guys. You mean a lot to me. But if we are all in this together do you know what that means?"
They looked at me confused.
"That means that you have to give Harry a chance. He is my friend, I want you guys to be friends again."
They both just stared at me in the way where you know this is going on in their heads
God no please don't I know we're friends but don't do this but I want to stay friends ugh fucking hell no maybe
"Alright." Niall finally said.
"Really?! You have no idea how happy that makes me feel!" I said all giddy.
They both kind of chuckled at me.
"Well know that it could take more than a day to get used to the guy. It has been 3 years since we've actually liked the dickhe- guy." Louis said.
"I know, the acceptance to do so is what makes me happy! But I need to go back to my room and study for my Bio exam that's coming up."
"That's fine, see you later." Niall said and gave me an individual hug.
I kissed his cheeek in return, not for romantic intentions. He knew it too. I hugged Louis as well, and then headed back to my dorm.

I ended up studying most of the night, not that I needed to, but I wanted to make sure I had all of the inforation.
The next day was a little groggy for me considering I was so tired. I pretty much had the process of mitosis carved into my brain. Thankfully choir came pretty fast on that Thursday.
I sat down in my seat and Perrie walked straight up to me when she walked in, and gave me a huge hug. She whispered to me, "You are awesome. I'm glad everything worked out."
She looked at me and smiled and walked to her seat.
I was getting realy excited because we were getting close to the concert, which meant all the memorizing was over, and now it was time to really make music.
I took out my binder and went straight to Lux Aurumque, I was beyond excited even though my outer appearance didn't really show it.
Mr. Lawrence walked in and everyone started getting into their seats and quieting down.

"Alright class, before we start anything there is an announcement. You will notice an extra seat in the baritone section and the tenor. That is because we have a couple of students transferring into this class. "
We all kinda looked around at each other. No one had any idea who it could be.
Just then in the doorway, of all people, Zayn and Harry appeared.
"Students, this is Zayn Malik and Harry Styles. They have both demonstrated a high quality of musical aspects and will be joining us from now on."
Niall and Louis dropped their jaws and looked at each other, Perrie looked ecstatic, Zayn looked.. well like Zayn, and Harry had a charming and cheeky smile.
I just sat there wide-eyed.
Things were about to get really interesting..
