Something In The Way You Move
Familiar Faces
I woke up early. Weirdly early. I am the type of girl who could sleep forever if you let her. But for some reason, I couldn't sleep.
I stumbled to the kitchen to make some tea. The aroma of chai filled my nose and slowly woke me up.
I sat and enjoyed this lovely Saturday.
Maybe things were finally going my way. Louis was finally back in my life. I knew that things weren't back to the way they used to be, but I was almost positive it would get there. We had both decided we would try, no matter what, to fix the mess we had both succeeded in creating.
Harry was my problem area. He was going to take a lot of effort, but I wasn't going to give up. He means the world to me. Speaking of Saturday... What day would be better to put my plan into action? None. Today was the day I would put myself in gear.
Then I realized that I can't really "put my plan into action" if I have no plan.
Make him fall in love with me... Oh yeah, that'll work. I told myself sarcastically in my head. I silently face palmed myself for thinking it would be remotely easy.

I was doing my laundry and watching Vampire Diaries, when my phones signaled I had a text.
'Hey Wren. Come over for pizza? I know what your thinking, but Perrie, Dani, and El are here. We all wanna hang out with you.' A message from Louis read.
'Sure "Everyone wants to see me" as in no one and especially not Harry' I thought to myself. As if on queue i received another text.
'Harry wants to see you especially. Please come! Xx' it read.
I sighed, I wasn't going to say no after all that happened yesterday. As much as I wanted to, I didn't. I wanted baldy to see everyone. I wanted even more baldy to see Harry. Seeing him for that split second days ago drove me wild. His face was filled with shock and sorrow. I just wanted more than anything to see that smile.
'Fine ill come!' I said back.
'Yay! El is gonna be so happy.' He messages back.
'What time?'
'6:00'
'K, see ya soon!' U
I was hoping the encounter tonight would be as far from awkward as possible. I thought back to just lay night. Louis had left after what seemed like hours of sitting and apologizing and discussing life in general. I was on the verge looking forward to tonight. The fact that all the girls would be here was exciting. I was worried that I would be looked at under a weird light tough. After all, each one of them knew Louis and I weren't on speaking terms just a week ago. I'm sure all of their minds would be filled with questions as to how we were back to normal. Well almost normal, if you could even say that.
I was now looking at my completion in the mirror, pushing myself to put some proper clothes on.
"Today, I shall will his heart." I said to myself out loud, in a Shakespearian vibe.
Great, now I'm talking to myself. Well... It's to late to stop.
"What am I thinking, he won't want me back." I continued to talk to myself,"I can still try though." I sighed a long sigh.
I was starting to sound like someone with one of those multiple personality disorders.
I pulled on shear pink top over my floral bandoo. I put some denim shorts on to face the day. It would mostly consist of mentally preparing myself for the situation that would take place tonight.

Obsessed, just plain weird, I don't know what to call myself. But I know that the fact that I'm jamming out to 'She's not afraid' right now, is just weird of me. I'm simply getting dressed an jamming out. When Harry's solo came on, I thought I was gonna pass out! Talk about mixed emotions.
I continued getting ready. I let my wavy dirty blonde hair hang over my shoulders.
I grabbed my phone an keys then made my way out of my flat.
The drive was to short for my liking. I began thinking of the different scenarios o the night, but succeeded in only becoming distracted and adding to my own nerves.
I got out of the car after parking and made my way to their flat. My mind was going in a million different ways as I raised my hand to knock on their door.
My nervous hands tapped the door. Not to long after it swung open revealing my 3 favorite girls.
"Wrenna Jade Tomlinson !" Perrie screamed as she pulled me into her arms.
I hugged her back and smiled over her shoulder at the other two. They were smiling from ear to ear.
" I missed you!" I pouted to Perrie.
"I know, I miss you too!" She pulled away. El stretched her arms out to me. We hugged for a moment when she whispered in my ear.
"I'm glad you and Lou are back to normal." She said so only I could hear her.
"Almost." I said with optimism,"it'll take some time." I smiled as I moved on to greet Dani.
"Danielle! You tamed the beast." I said referring to her now flat ironed hair.
She laughed and ran her fingers through it."Well your has gotten long! it just proves how long its been since we saw you last." She said as we hugged.
"I know! I suck for being away for so long." I said to all of them.
"Don't say that." Perrie smiled.
"Where are the boys?" I asked.
"Niall, Harry, and Zayn are in the living room." El said.
"Louis?" I asked hesitently.
"He and Liam are out on the balcony."
I wasn't sure how this was gonna go. Either way, tonight was going to be weird.
"I'll go get Lou and Li." Dani said walking off.
Perrie, Eleanor, and I stood by the door still.
"So have you and Harry talked?" El asked me quietly.
"Uh, no. Last I saw him was when Liam dragged me over here." I said.
"When was that?" Perrie asked.
"A few days ago."
"We'll what happened?"
"Um..."
"Tell us!" El pressed.
"Well Lou and I began talking and everyone left the room. We started kinda yelling and fighting. We erm, both were yelling and crying and I ended up leaving without talking to anyone else." I said looking at the floor.
"Oh, I'm sorry." Perrie said rubbing my back.
"It's okay, I just really wanna talk to him, but don't know how." I moped.
Just then we began walking into the kitchen and Louis and Liam come inside.
"Hey Wren." Liam says happily hugging me.
"Hey." I smile at him. He was always the one who was closest to me.
"I'm glad your here!" Louis said in his usual cheery voice I hadn't heard in a while.
"Me too! Your right, I'm so happy to see the girls." I said hugging him.
This simple hug gave me so much relief and joy. It was just another gesture that proved we were getting better.
"Let's go into the kitchen." Louis told us all.
Everyone began walking down the hall and Louis and I walked towards the back of the group.
I whispered to him quietly.
"Lou, what do I say to Harry?"
"Just act normal Wren. I know it's hard, but just be friendly. Are you gonna talk to him?" He asked.
"Okay, and I don't know. I want to, I just don't know what to say." I said back.
"You'll find the right time, then the words will come to you." He said with a tiny smile as we approached the Living room.
Harry sat with the other boys. He looked no different. His beautiful curls sitting effortlessly on his head. The way that one little curl hung over his eye. His green eyes. Why must he be so attractive!? There was one thing he was lacking. He didn't seem to smile like I remembered.

The night passed by pretty quickly. All the boys were nice to me as usual. I'm positive Louis explained how we made up to them. We ate dinner and joked and everyone asked questions about my schooling. Harry seemed distant most of the night. He wasn't rude, he just wasn't very awake you could say. I felt like it was me. I was probably making him upset and uncomfortable. I didn't blame him. I suck.
We had all eaten and we went to sit outside. We were all talking when I realized I didn't have my phone so I went inside leaving everyone to get it. I walked back inside and went into the kitchen to dig through my purse. When I found it, I made my way down the hall checking my messages. I walked without looking up from my phone.
"Wrenna?" I heated that all to familiar husky voice.
I looked over to see Harry sitting in the living room on the couch.
"Yeah?" I answered hesitantly.
"Can we talk?" He asked me.
"Uh, yeah." I said sitting down beside him.
