The Letter. The Change.
THE LIE.

This would have been the epilogue of THE LIE:
*Katia's POV*

The warm July sun rained down on my skin warming my arms and legs. The sun was starting to set making small rays of pink and orange run across the blue sky. It was still nice out, high 70's or mid 20's with a slight, warm breeze that pushed my light flowly white dress against the side of my legs. It was days like today I missed the long, hot July days of Iowa.

I looked out over the fields I was walking next to. There was a group of young boys running around playing soccer/football, most of them probably 8 or 9. There was one little boy though running with them. He couldn't of be any older than 4 and was probably a little brother to one of the boys.

I felt a cool metal band press against my palm as they squeezed my hand lightly. I looked down at the familiar hand and then followed it up to the face I knew was looking down at me. I looked back into the loving pools of blue, green, and grey.

"I love you," his melodic voice reached my ears.

"I love you too, Louis." He bent down and our lips briefly touched.

It has been three years since we met in the cafe. We ended up dating for another year before he proposed. It was on the day we first met in the park four years earlier. So far in my life its been the second happiest day, the first being the day we finally got to say 'I do' a year later. Sure we had our ups and downs during that time but all that mattered was where we were now, happy and together. Its been a year and a half since we were married and its been the happiest year of my life.

The rest of the boys are doing well though I don't see them as much as I used too. Liam and Danielle have been married two years and Danielle was pregnant with their second child. They don't know what it is yet, they want it to be a surprise. Their first child was a little girl who looks just like Danielle but has Liam's personality. She is just starting to walk and is absolutely adorable. They are living in London in a little house I absolutely love.

Zayn and Perrie are still dating. They took some time off from each other but got back together almost a year ago now. A couple weeks ago Zayn came over for the evening to watch a football/soccer game with Lou and told us he was planning on proposing. The ring is beautiful and I know Perrie is going to love it.

Harry and I still talk quite frequently, more than the rest at least. He has been seeing a girl named Chelsea for a while now. I don't know how serious he is about her and I personally don't know her well. He's happy though and is still singing professionally. I just hope he finds someone who makes him happy and he can live happily with.

The only one of the boys I am really worried about is Niall. He hasn't really recovered from the loss of Milo and I know he still misses Mia. He has been with other girls but they were all just distractions, nothing serious. We are all terrified he is going to turn to alcoholic ways. He did for a short time but we intervened before it could turn into something serious.

The football the young boys were playing with rolled in front of me interrupting my thoughts. Louis put his foot out and stopped it. I looked over and saw the little boy I had been watching over run over to us. Louis let go of my hand and kneeled down so he was eye level with the little boy.

He had curly, golden hair that fell right above his big brown eyes. He cautiously walked over to Lou who was holding the ball out to him. I watched as Louis talked to him kindly and hand him the ball. The little boy run away with the ball smiling and laughing. I smiled as I watched them and my hand slid over the fabric of my dress and rested on my stomach.

I had just found out I was pregnant this morning and hadn't told Louis yet. I was planning on telling him tonight over supper. I have always known he was going to make a great father but after just watching him interact with that little boy it just affirmed what I already knew. He was going to be ecstatic when I told him and I couldn't wait.

I couldn't wait to tell him, I couldn't wait to have our family, I couldn't wait to live the rest of my life with him.

Authors note: So That was how Katia and Louis's story ended. I'm sorry I was unable to finish writing it completely, but I plan on making a final quote all about that so.... Thank you to everyone who read my story, it really means a lot ot me.

Chapter : Beginning of Summer **This is after her freshman year of college is over**
*Katia's POV*

Summer was finally here. Finals were over with and I had passed all of my classes. LIfe was good. I was home for the summer, and my mom seemed really happy to have me back, but we'll see how long that lasts.

I ended up breaking up with Jace a couple weeks after I got back from Thanksgiving week. We don't really talk anymore, and I haven't dated anyone else since. I focused on school and that was it.

I saw Niall a couple weeks before, he had came to visit Mia. It was merely coincidence I saw him; we were both visiting her grave at the same time. We ended up having a bite to eat and he caught me up on how everything was with the boys.

I was sitting in my kitchen eating a grapefruit and watching the news. I was only half paying attention when a headline caught my attention.

"Coming up next: One Direction Engaged? Find out when the big day is after this short commercial break." I muted the tv and smiled. Liam had finally proposed. I was happy for him, a little surprised I hadn't heard from Danielle though. Even when I wasn't talking to Liam I was talking to Danielle. We hadn't really talked lately but we used to be close.

Oh well, life of a famous person I guess, I thought. I was just finishing putting my dished in the kitchen sink when the news was back on. I un muted the tv and leaned against the kitchen counter.

The same women from earlier was on the screen. She was older, late 50's I'd guess, and had dark brown hair. "The famous boyband that stole the hearts of millions of girls across the world is now engaged. Last night, Louis Tomlinson proposed to her girlfriend Eleanor on their anniversary."

My entire body went numb, I couldn't feel or hear anything. My mind was struggling to wrap around what I had just heard. I broke down the sentence to the simplest form possible, just trying to understand. Louis is engaged.

*Katia's POV*

His green eyes looked dull and filled with sympathy. I could tell by the expression on his face he wasn't sure what to say, knowing nothing would really comfort me. I looked back at the road and watched the black pavement disappear under the car only for more to appear in the distance.

"Is he really happy?" I whispered. In my peripheral vision I saw Harry taken back by my abrupt question. I knew I didn't have to clarify who I was talking about, so I began regretting letting those words fall from my mouth as each second went by that he didn't answer.

"I don't know," his curls bounced as he gently shook his head. "I can't tell if its all just an act or not."

I nodded as if I was indifferent but that wasn't what I was hoping he would say. I don't know what I wanted him to say either; I didn't want him to be unhappy but at the same time it would of killed me to know he was living a perfectly happy life without me. I guess I didn't really want an answer at all. My mind started to wander when Harry's voice brought me back.

"If he is now, he wasn't for a long time. Your break up really upset him," he told me.

"It wasn't like I was peachy and fine about the situation either," my tone harsher than what I meant for it to be.

"I didn't say you were," he defended himself. "I was just meaning he really missed you. He didn't leave his hotel room for a week. He just sat in there and drank while listening to music." He paused for a moment before continuing.

"One night it rained and he went and sat outside, just sat there all night. We tried to get him to come in but he wouldn't. He was a wreak, and just wanted you back."

I swallowed hard, trying to get rid of the lump that was forming in the back of my throat. "I could tell by all of the phone calls. Especially when we had just broken up and then he asks Eleanor out. On our one year anniversary."

Harry cringed and I turned on the radio. As the car filled with random music I didn't even like I mulled over everything Harry just told me. So he did care, at least a little. When I didn't receive a single phone call that was proof to me that he really didn't ever care. And then when I checked my email, after spending hours of building up the courage, only to realize he hadn't sent me one, that was when I completely broke.

But by what Harry said, he was as broken up about it as I had been. Then why didn't he even try to get me back?

Authors note: This is all I have written for the college part. Only two parts left to post until everything I have written out for this story is posted for those who even care.

Chapter : November(College part)
*Katia's POV*

The rest of lunch was spent making fake smiles. I tried to enjoy spending time with the guys, and Jace and Jessica, but I was distracted. When lunch was finally over I walked out of the restaurant exhausted. I was holding Milo, positioning him on my hip, as we all walked to the cars. I put Milo in his carseat and after saying good bye to everyone I got in a car with Jace and Jessica. We were just about to leave when someone was knocking on my window.

I rolled it down to see a smiling curly haired boy. "Yes Hazza?"

"Are you going home for Thanksgiving?" he asked me. I nodded. "Care if I ride with you? Its cramped in the car with Niall."

"Of course!" I told him. It would be nice to have someone to ride back with. Harry got in the back seat. I saw Jace send me a disapproving look but I ignored it. Jessica and Harry talked the entire time back to campus. Jace and I didn't say much. I was still exhausted from lunch and I knew Jace was angry at me.

Once we got back to campus I said my goodbye to Jace. He was driving to his home in Nebraska after getting his stuff so I wouldn't see him until we got back. I asked him not to be mad at me as we were hugging and he seemed to forgive me. He kissed me before getting back in his car. I stood there, missing the fireworks as he drove away.

"You okay love?" Harry asked me. I put on a fake smile and turned towards him.

"Yeah. Hope you don't mind coming back to my dorm with me real quick. I just have to grab a few things," I started on the walk back to the door. Jessica had already packed and put her bags in her car so she had already left. We passed a few people on the walk to the dorm, but a ton.

Harry and I really didn't talk as we walked, and it was one of the few times I was not grateful for silence. I didn't want time to think. Soon enough though we were back at my dorm where I quickly packed and we left.

We had been driving for a while when Harry spoke up. "Katia, you know I can tell when you are lying right?" I sighed, I knew where this was going.

"So whats wrong?"

Whats wrong? What wasn't wrong? I felt like my life was falling apart once again. I stared at the road for a moment before answering. "Everything anymore."

"Whats wrong?" he sounded like a broken record but I didn't mind. I liked having someone to talk to.

"I have missed you guys so much, and it was so great to see you guys but...." my voice drifted off as I thought about when I first saw Louis. How the breath was knocked out of my chest.

"Lou?" He offered. I swallowed and nodded.

"I was doing so well, I hadn't thought of him for a while. I was so happy with Jace but seeing him today... it threw my whole world upside down," I confessed. I knew i could trust Harry with this, I knew he wouldn't tell.

"I mean I felt more from just making eye contact with Louis than kissing Jace. And I don't know lately I've been thinking about our fight and I know I kinda over reacted but I was going so through so much. Mia had just...." I couldn't finish my thought. "And then everything with Zack and my family. That was just too much. I thought he was going to be my rock and suddenly he was gone. Everything I knew about him was thrown upside down."

Harry didn't say anything as I gathered my thoughts. "And now he is happy with Eleanor and I'm not so happy with Jace and Harry I really screwed up. And I don't have anyone to talk to about this and I would talk to Mia but she isn't here anymore and I don't know what to do," tears started to blur my vision as I drove. I quickly blinked my tears away, and a few fell down my cheeks.

"I miss her Harry," I finished. I waited for him to say something anything, I just needed his raspy voice to fill the silence. I quickly took my eyes off the empty space of road ahead of us and glanced over at him.

Chapter : November(College part)
*Katia's POV*

"So Jace, do you play any sports?" Jace sat up straighter at the mention of his name.

"Actually I run track. I'm on the teams 4x4," he proudly announced.

"Really?" Liam leaned forward. "What position?"

"Anchor," I answered for him. I looked at Louis when I answered. There was a small smirk playing on my lips.

"Is that good?" Niall asked. We all chuckled at Niall's ignorance and it was Liam who ended up answering him.

"Yes, normally the best runners run anchor," he explained. I looked over at Louis to see his reaction but he wasn't even looking over at us, or even paying any attention to the conversation. I felt a scowl start to grow on my face and quickly replaced it with a smile.

"Track is actually how Katia and I met," Jace announced. Everyone leaned forward slightly indicating for him to continue. I noticed even Louis turn slightly towards the table.

So he is listening, I thought to myself.

"I was out early one morning getting a jog in before class. I didn't expect anyone to be out on the track, but when I got there there was single person out there running. Now I walked out to the track and started warming up. She was about 100 meters ahead of me so I quickly caught up with her," he looked over at me and smiled. I knew what came next so I started laughing to myself.

"Well when I caught up to her, I tried talking to her, but she didn't respond or even acknowledge me, I thought she was just being rude..."

"I didn't notice him!" i defended myself. "You know how I get into my own world and I barely notice anything." The boys all nodded in agreement and even though I didn't want to, I glanced over at Louis. I could of sworn I saw a slight smile cross his lips but it was gone to fast to be certain.

"Anyways, so I was a little more than confused when she suddenly started belting out the lyrics to some disney song," everyone started laughing, myself included. You could especially hear Niall's laugh above the others.

"What song was it? Wasn't it some Lion King song?" Jace asked me.

"No, it was my theme song! I'll make a man out of you from Mulan," I reminded him.

He laughed and continued with his story. "Well either way I finally managed to get her attention and then managed to get her to go out on a date with me."

"You make it sound like I agreed right then and there. It took you a couple weeks of morning jogs and singing Disney songs with me before I agreed," He pulled me closer to him as I spoke.

"Either way I managed to steal you heart," he ended his sentence with a kiss. Just then the waitress came back with our food.

As I picked at my pizza I couldn't help but think of what Jace said. Did he steal my heart? I looked over at him, I definitely cared about him but... I glanced over at Louis. He was holding Milo and making faces at him. He looked up at me and our eyes connect. Only for a second before I looked away quickly. But in that seconds so many emotions ran through me, emotions I hadn't felt in a while. And then I realized it.

I felt more just making eye contact with Louis than I ever have kissing Jace.

Chapter : November(College part)
*Katia's POV*

"They have taco pizza?!"Harry exclaimed excitedly. His eyes were big, like a little kid looking at a candy store display.

With everyone laughing--well almost everyone one, not so much Jessica or Jace-- I told him that was my usual. "Do you want to share a pizza with Jace and I?" I asked him. They had a variety of sizes you could order so it was really no big deal.

"Yes, if you don't mind I would love too," he placed his menu down in front of him pleased with his meal choice.

"I might actually share with you also, if you don't care," Zayn said as he continued to look at the menu.

"Actually, Zayn, we don't want to share a pizza with you," I joked with him like I used to with Mia. I didn't joke like that often any more, only with certain people like my family and Mari.

Jace and Jessica weren't used to this kind of humor from me so both sat back kinda shocked. "Ummm Kate," Jessica said "you don't need to be rude you can share a pizza with him."

Zayn though, understanding and being used to my humor, was laughing. "Fine then I'll just eat Harry's half of the pizza."

"Oh really? Then Harry doesn't get any taco pizza," I continued to joke. All the boys were laughing now, and Jess and Jace were nervously watching.

"Hey now!" Harry injected, "Don't take away my tacos." We continued to joke around until the waitress came and took our order. I felt the best and worst that I had in months. Being around the guys made me realize how much I missed them, and even though it still hurt to see some of them it was nice to be able to joke around like I used too.

After the waitress left with our order we began to catch up. Zayn and Perrie were still going strong, even though there was a scandal about Zayn cheating on her a couple months before. Harry was seeing this girl named Grace, but it was nothing serious. Liam and Danielle were still dating, and Liam confessed to us that he was planning on proposing soon. Talking to him hurt, but not as much. I knew at heart he never meant to hurt me, and that really meant a lot.

"And little Nialler here has been talking to a very nice young lady," Harry teased. Niall's cheeks turned red from embarrassment. It didn't bother me at all that he was talking to someone, he should be happy.

"She is just a friend," his irish voice mumbled. I couldn't tell if he was lying or if he was serious and was upset by Harry's teasing.

"What about you Katia? How have you been?" Liam asked, obviously trying to distract attention from Niall.

"I'm good, college is a different experience for me but you know," I shrugged.

Jessica, who had been taking a sip of her drink, set her glass down. "You haven't spoken much." she motioned towards Louis. I had noticed that too. I had noticed everything, from the way he was playing with the straw wrapper, weaving it in between his index and middle finger, to whenever he flipped his hair out of his eyes.

He looked over at her for a moment, and then looked at me. His eyes suddenly got icy and hard when he looked at me. "Oh well I've been great! I have been dating Eleanor for a while now and I couldn't be happier." he looked at me the entire time. His voice sounded genuinely happy but there was something about his guarded expression that got to me.

Jessica seemed oblivious to the real meaning behind Louis's words. The boys though all knew what he was really meaning by that: I am happier with Eleanor than I ever was with you and I'm glad we broke up. They all struggled to come up with something else to talk about, anything at all. You could tell they were all racing to come up with a topic, but it was Zayn who managed to come up with something.

*Katia's POV*

I tried not to care though and walked over and joined Jace. His hand engulfed mine, our fingers laced together. With a quick squeeze I looked up at him. He was still mad.

"Please don't be mad," I leaned into him and whispered so no one would hear. "I haven't seen them forever and they are really important to me. They have helped me through a lot."

"I'm not mad at you," there was an edge to his voice. "I'm just worried."

"There is nothing to be worried about, they are like brothers to me," I reassured him.

He snorted. "What about him?" His head motioned back to Louis. I felt my heart drop.

"Trust me, you have nothing to worry about," I told him with as much certainty as I could muster. I must of convinced him because he seemed to relax, if only slightly. His muscles weren't as tense and his grip on my hand lessened.

But was I convinced? Lately Louis had been in my thoughts a lot; my mind would wander and before i know it I'm thinking of him. And then seeing him again... I couldn't resist the urge to glance back at him. His jaw was clenched, his hands made tight fists at his side. His eyes were filled with a mix of emotions and seemed almost grey. As if a storm was brewing over an ocean. Following his gaze I realized he was looking at Jace's and my intertwined hands.

I turned around, irritated myself. He has no right to be mad that I am dating someone else. I have the right to move on. Especially when he was dating Eleanor again.

After a quick drive we arrived at the OP. It was a mostly a sports bar, but it had a sections of large table for larger groups. From the outside it didn't look very fancy; dirty old bricks, tattered old flags, burnt out lights. But the inside it was covered in the latest tvs, every inch of wall covered, nice tables and chairs filled the floor space. We all piled in through the door. The waitress looked at us waiting for a number.

"Uhh..." I did the mental math. "nine." She nodded and walked off to the far side of the building.

We all followed her and watched as she pushed a couple tables together in one of the side rooms. We all sat down and I had to fight the instinct to sit to the left of Louis. Instead I sat between Jace and Milo, who as in a high chair next to Niall.The waitress handed out menu's and we all started to study them without much talking.

They had a variety of food, almost any pizza you can think of, salads, and hamburgers. You could order something different every time and it would take you almost 100 times to have to start the cycle over again.

I scanned the menu for something to jump out at me, but nothing sounded good. After a while I gave up. Sighing I placed the menu on the table. "Any one want to share my usual with me?" I asked.

"I will," Jace offered. I gave him a smile as a thank you. I looked over at Niall who was still studying away.

"Can't decide on what to have there Nialler?" I joked. He laughed but didn't look up from his menu.

"Uh no, actually I'm looking for Milo..." his voice drifted for a second as he read something. "How large are their chicken strips?"

"Ummm, pretty big. You could always ask for 2 and then just a couple fries. They should make that change for you," I told him. Niall nodded and then went back to studying the menu.

"Hi Milo," I said in a voice that sounded much happier than I felt.

"Can you say hi?" Niall urged him. Milo hid his face behind Niall causing us all to laugh.

"Why are you being so shy?" Harry asked. Milo looked up at him and smiled, giggling slightly. "You aren't shy."

Niall looked up at me, with a little more life in his eyes he said. "Watch this." redirecting his attention he looked down at Milo. "Miles, go say hi to Harry. Go say hi to Harry."

Milo looked from Harry to Niall and then back to Harry. Smiling hi walked over to Harry, who was now crouching. Grabbing onto his leg he said, "Hi Harway!" his small little voice excitedly exclaimed. Harry laughed and picked him up and placed him on his hip. I stood up and walked over to them.

"You are a cutie," I said to Milo who was looking at me. "And you look just like your daddy." I felt a body come up behind me and initially thought it was Jace but with a slight turn of my head I saw Jessica's black hair. I stepped aside so she could see him.

I looked around and noticed most people had cleared the area, leaving just our group. While scanning the campus my eyes connected with Louis's. I started to get lost in the blue green pools, as if I was drifting out into an ocean and unable to swim back. I knew that if I did got lost there would be no way to get back. Using all of my strength and self will I looked away. Once again I hadn't been breathing and as soon as I looked away I felt the burn in my lungs. Screaming at me in protest, begging for air.

I continued to look at everyone else and my eyes landed on Jace. He was standing kind of outside the group, just close enough to notice he was with us, but obviously not interested or comfortable. Kinda like Louis. No, no thoughts of Louis, I told myself. Jace looked over at me and I smiled, a fake smile but it looked genuine enough. He smiled thinly. I frowned and realized something needed to change.

"So we were just about to go out for some lunch, would you all like to join us?" I asked, interrupting all of the conversations going on. The boys all looked at each other, nodding slightly.

"Yes, that would be nice," Liam answered. I looked at him for just a second. Every time I look at him its like a giant reminder of what had happened... not that Louis wasn't. But with Louis, it was different. It was a gut wrenching pain, a heart aching, stomach dropping, head pounding hurt. With Liam it was simple, but painful, stab in the stomach.

I looked over at Jessica who was smiling at the idea. She was obviously happy to meet new people, she always was though, she was a giant people person. I then looked at Jace. He was not happy about it, I could tell. His jaw was clenched and i noticed one of his fists were.

"Great!" I tried to sound excited. "Jess have you decided on any where yet?" I asked her.

"Oh yeah! Lets go to the OP for some pizza," she announced. My stomach growled at the thought of their pizza and I realized that I was actually really hungry. We all started to walk towards the cars. I couldn't help but notice that Louis stayed behind, walking slower than the rest.

Authors note: So I realize that Katia's reactions to all of this might seem a little extremebut please remember that she had just been through a lot when she learned about Liam being L and thats why she was so hurt. She really needed them in her life and then she learned they had been lying to her the entire time they knew her.

Chapter : November(College part)
*Katia's POV*

"Katia!" I heard a familiar low, raspy voice yell. Puzzled I stopped and looked around. I tried to locate the voice I knew so well. Finally I spotted a curly haired boy. A giant smile was painted across his face as he walked over. I let go of Jace's hand and felt him resist letting me go. Pulling away I started to walk towards him.

"Harry!" I exclaimed as we got closer. He embraced me a hug which I graciously took. I had missed him so much, I had missed all of them. Ever since the fight we hadn't talked much. I know at first I was mad at everyone, but right before school started I had forgiven 3/5 of them.

It was nice to see him, it was comforting. "What are you doing here?" I asked him. After the break up I had kept track of where they were, what they were doing. If I couldn't be with them, I at least wanted to make sure they were all okay.

Before he could answer I saw him look behind me. I glanced back and saw Jessica and Jace awkwardly standing there. "Uhh guys this is Harry Styles, Hazz this is Jessica, my best friend and room mate, and Jace." I added quietly, "My boyfriend."

As if to prove it Jace slipped his hand into mine and gave it a tight squeeze. You could almost feel the hostility radiating off of him in waves. I ignored it though, he could deal. Harry was nothing more than a friend, and I had no intentions of changing that.

"Pleasure to meet you," Harry nodded to them. His voice sounded deeper to me since the last time I had spoken to him, if that was possible.

"So what brings you to our small college in the middle of nowhere Iowa?" Jessica asked. I looked over to him to hear his answer, it really didn't make much sense to me that he was here.

Harry looked over to me before speaking. "Niall wanted to visit Mia's parents during the break so we came with him." Jessica and Jace both slightly froze up, knowing how sensitive I still was to loosing Mia. I was about to ask how long they were going to say when something clicked.

"When you say we..." my voice trailed off as I looked over behind him and saw everyone else walking over.

Zayn was the first one I noticed. He didn't look much different, just more mature though there was now no evidence of his blonde streak. Niall was right next to him, his blonde completely gone. His blue eyes that were once so full of life were now empty. He looked down with a smile on his face and I followed his gaze. Holding onto his hand was little Milo. He had grown so much since I had last seen him. He had cubby little cheeks and hands and was walking well now. He had Niall's dark brown hair and his clear blue eyes, though unlike his father's they were full of life.

My attention was redirected as I heard a laugh. My heart lurched at the sound, and my stomach fell to my feet. I looked up slowly and looked directly into the face of Louis. He was looking over at Liam, smiling and laughing. And even though I barely could see him I could tell he had changed very little; he still had the same facial features, the blue green eyes, the same hair cut. The only difference was he looked more toned, as if he worked out a lot.

I hadn't realized I wasn't breathing until Jace asked me if I was okay. Sucking in a deep breath of air I nodded. "Yeah I'm fine." I mumbled. I glanced over at Harry to see if he noticed my slight slip up. He had and was watching me. I smiled at him and looked look over at the five boys joining us.

"Katia," Zayn said out reaching his arms in a hug. Once again I had to pull my hand from Jace's grip. We hugged for only a second, before I heard an Irish accent.

"I've missed you," Niall said. His eyes were filled with sympathy, as were mine. We both knew the pain the other was going through. He looked down at the young boy pulling on his pant leg. "What?" he asked. His voice lighter and happier than before. He kneeled down so he was eye level with Milo. Smiling I joined him.

Milo looked at me as though I was going to jump out and attack him in a second. Hiding behind Niall's leg his big blue eyes watched me.

Chapter : November(College part)
*Katia's POV*

I walked out of the last classroom for the day with one of my good friends Jessica. We were discussing where to go for lunch as we pushed open the doors and walked out into the cool crisp November air. For being the end of November the weather was still fairly nice. It was in the upper 50's, and the sun was brightly shining down on the world, warming my skin. I ran my hand through my now long hair as the wind playfully blew it around gently. Unlike in high school where the longest it got was just past my shoulders, my hair was now just below my shoulder blades. I hadn't straightened it, so it had a slight wave to it.

I took a long look around the campus. There were scattered trees in the open grassy fields, their branches mostly bare now with the colorful leaves scattered across the ground. There were a couple concrete benches, all deserted, though during the warmer months people would argue for who got the last seat. It was beautiful here, with the wide open spaces and nature all around. I noticed that there were already quite a few people walking around on the sidewalks and began to slow down my pace, scanning for one face.

"Hey you," I felt a pair of strong arms wrap around my waist. Smiling I turned around to face them.

"Hey, I was just looking for you," I said cheerily. I looked up into the face of Jace, my boyfriend of almost 2 months.

My eyes scanned his face. He had angular cheeks and a strong jawline. His light brown hair fell gently into his melted carmel colored eyes I could get lost in. He had a very masculine look to him over all. Being one of the stars of our school's track team he was always in great shape.

His head bent down to mine and his soft lips brushed against mine for only a fraction of a second. Even though he didn't partake in no-shave November, I noticed he had a little stubble.

"What are you looking at?" He deep voice questioned. I couldn't help but compare it to Harry's, they sounded quite similar actually, besides the accent of course.

"You," I said in almost a day dream state. My voice sounded far off and distant, maybe because my mind was.

"Are you love birds going to be done soon? I would like to get some food," Jessica said just a couple feet away. Removing my arms from behind Jace's muscular back I turned and looked at her.

Her black hair was pulled over to the side in a messy bun. She was wearing a pair of dark jeans that showed off her long, lean legs. Her shirt was a school t-shirt, a size too big also, but it was our last of classes before Thanksgiving and we really didn't care. Her arms were crossed over her chest, and she had her sass look on.

"Yeah, have you picked where are we eating today?" I asked her. She loved to eat a variety of food, so normally we just let her pick otherwise she would complain the whole time. She began walking away listing off places we could go. I looked up at Jace and rolled my eyes. Smiling we followed her hand in hand.

I wasn't really listening to her, no matter what she would have the final say in where we ate so it didn't really matter. My mind was starting to wander to where I was a year ago. I was probably in my kitchen, helping my mom with something while Louis sat at the counter telling us stories from his tour. His eyes sparkling at the memory, his laugh filling up the room. Or maybe his arms were wrapped around my waist, holding me as close as he could before he had to leave. The smell of his cologne filling my noise and I buried my face in his chest. His soft lips leaving their mark on my forehead...I shook my head, i shouldn't be thinking of Louis, we were over. He lied to me, about our entire relationship. And plus, I was happy with Jace.

I looked up at him, considering he was 6 foot and towered over me. I couldn't help but think of Mari's nickname for him. Rebound. I don't think he was a rebound boyfriend. I mean I really cared about him, and I was over Louis. Then why were you just thinking about him? part of me argued. I shook my head again and tried to join Jessica's conversation she was having with herself about where to eat lunch.
