A happy (and longer) chapter is here! But where are all the reads coming from o.o SHOW YOURSELVES, PEOPLE! (I'm kidding, you don't have to)

CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE

(LOUIS POV)

There was thunder. It’s cold, I see people pushing as the rain falls. They’re trying to get out of the rain, but then someone falls. Someone who looks like…me? That person lands hard on the ground, and it looks like he’s hurt. Someone helps him up, I don’t recognize him, and I can’t see whoever it is. They’re both soaking wet, though and they soon run towards shelter, or as fast as a run can get when you fall and injure your leg.

I see sign outside a shop: Julia’s Café? It must be the two of them from just now.  I see them in the café now, steaming cups of coffee sitting on the table in front of them. They don’t look quite so cold and soaked anymore. But one of them…he really looks a lot like me, doesn’t he? I didn’t know I had a twin.

Wait. Where am I now? Wasn’t I at the café? It was raining. Now I’m…standing on the streets, and…the sun is shining? What?

I see them again but they aren’t together this time. The one with the curly hair who helped me-lookalike up is walking up ahead and me-lookalike is just standing on the streets. His eyes are somehow drawn to Curly’s, I can see it from where I’m standing.

Me-lookalike goes up to Curly and he turns around. Is he angry? He’s speaking now but I don’t hear any of it, I can only see his expression. Maybe I’m too far away, but then why does everything seem so muted?

I don’t know. Now I’m walking towards a café. It looks like the same one from…when? Just now? It’s me-lookalike again.

Wait, but this time it’s different, though, not like just now. I remember this; I don’t remember any of what I saw just now. So…Is that really me? But why can I see myself? Am I dead? Dreaming?

I’m supposed to be meeting Niall. I’m standing beside me-lookalike, and I hear someone calling me, and I turn, but he turns too. His name is Louis too? It can’t be. That person must be me. I’m confused, my head is pounding. What’s this all about?

When I turn, it’s not Niall, though. It’s that same person who got angry at me, for whatever reason.

Why don’t I remember this? I was supposed to be meeting Niall, he obviously isn’t Niall. But he doesn’t look angry now. Why does he keep appearing?

Suddenly I’m standing outside the Frozen Ice and just as I’m deciding if I should go in, someone walks out. Or rather, something walks out. An ice cream mascot, to be exact.

It looks familiar. I must have put it on at some point in time while I was at work. I peer closer at the mascot, and find that the person inside has the same blue eyes as I do! Oh, that must be me then. I’m getting over the initial weirdness of this all, seeing myself living in the past.
