A/N Sooooo chapter 1 has 2 reads now! And I think that it is a good chance it was from me checking on my phone but hey leave a comment and prove me wrong? Ok ok I'll let you read the chapter now!!

Louis 

Well to say that Louis enjoyed his first morning lecture of the semester would be a lie. The morning had gone to shit he'd slept through his alarm and had to run to get there on time and Louis and running don't go well together as he managed to run straight into someone and their coffee. So he ended up being late to class with a massive stain on his grey pullover which earnt him a few odd glances. 

The semester continued to crawl by but somehow the due date of monthly rent was speeding closer. It was stressing Louis out as he didn't really have time for a job because in order to maintain his place at the fucking posh uni he had to get good marks which meant forcing himself to pay attention and study. And if he did manage to get some money he'd send it home to help out his sisters, Fizzy already had a part time job and helped to pay for their food which was more than their mother was doing.

Zayn seemed to have made some new friends although, they weren't who Louis had expected. They were rich people who went out to parties and Zayn seemed to really like them and as Zayn's popularity was increasing Louis was crawling further inside the shell of his own mind. It wasn't that Louis was surprised Zayn had new friends its just that he didn't quite expect to feel so abandoned. However, Louis also knew that he had to have a talk to Zayn about monthly rent which was due in a week, fuck.

It was Thursday evening when Louis decided that he couldn't put off talking to Zayn about rent any longer. 

"um Zayn, you know rent is due next week aye?" Louis said tentatively.

Zayn looked up from his phone, "yeah I know mate I'm all sorted"

"ok tha-thats good" Louis cringed at how the words tumbled from his mouth.

"everything alright lou?" Zayn raised an eyebrow.

"I, I um can't afford rent this month and I don't have a job, I don't have time for a job, and and my sisters." The words flew from Louis's mouth as he continued to ramble.

"Hey, hey Louis don't freak out. I um have a job if you want it. Kinda like a one off thing and it will pay for the months rent and then some so you can have a decent meal." Zayn offers with a kind smile 

"Really?" Louis looked up hope sparking in his eyes.

"Yeah, you won't like it though."

"What'd you mean?" Louis's eyebrows furrow together.

"Well if you want it the jobs yours but-"

"Zayn spit it out"

"pills. Can you do a pill delivery to someone for me?"

Louis's jaw pretty much slapped the ground, "DRUGS! Zayn your a fucking drug dealer, I knew something had changed, you and your new fucking stuck up friends!" Louis was fuming.

"Lou its- its not like that ok? It pays well, better than some other job, and what other option do you have?" Zayn remarks a tad harshly. 

Louis knew Zayn was right he let out a huff and stomped out of the room and away to get lost in his thoughts. 

The next morning Louis rolled out of bed a half hour early so he could catch Zayn before class. 

"I'll do it." Louis mumbled. 

"Really?" Zayn didn't hide his surprise well.

"Yep. But only because I really fucking need the money." 

"ok ok chill out mate, I'll text you the address and time of where to meet the buyer and I'll leave them in your room for now." Zayn confirmed.

Louis hated the thought of getting involved with any part of Zayn's sketchy business but money was money and something he really needed. It was a one time thing, get them to the buyer, take the cash, and pay rent. Nothing more nothing less. 

Louis felt his phone buzz in the early evening pulling it out he read he was to meet the mystery buyer at the uni gardens, 8.30pm. This could not sound more sketchy. However Louis was committed now as Zayn was out doing god knows what with his fancy fucking friends. He had found the small package he was to deliver when he returned to the flat after classes and studying he did at the library, he tried to keep away from the flat for as long as possible and pretended to be something he was not, well put together and posh like everyone else. 

The time eventually rolled around to 8:15pm and Louis knew that the gardens were about a 10 minute walk, as he could most definitely not afford a car. Pulling on a coat over his hoodie he swiped the package from his room deciding that he just wanted to get it over with. Louis pulled his coat tighter around him walking quickly through the bitter evening, as he reached the gardens he realised he wasn't sure what he was looking for. Double checking his phone that he was at the right place he could feel the cold seeping through his coat, when a light tap on his shoulder caught him by surprise. 

His heart leapt into his throat as he spun around 100% sure he was about to be kidnapped. Then all he saw was green staring straight down into his soul. 

"Your not Zayn" The eyes said.

"I- I'm Louis, Louis Tomlinson" He managed to choke out.

Louis blinked repeatedly trying to pull his eyes away from the invasive green ones, which now were displaying a frown. 

"Well do you have my package?"

"Um yep I do, sorry Zayn was busy and is having me do his job for him and I um-" The words left Louis's mouth in a heap and far too quickly.

"Look bud, do you have my package or not?" The stranger said cocking his head slightly an amused smirk tugging at his lips.

Fumbling through the deep pockets of his coat Louis managed to reveal the small package and quickly handed it to the stranger. Louis's eyes lingered on the mans hands which were decorated with rings for a moment too long. Snapping his gaze back up to meet the green again Louis took the money from the gorgeous stranger not bothering to check if it was the right amount. 

"So we're all done here then?" Louis asked.

"Sure are" The stranger replied with humour playing across his expression. 

Internally cringing at himself Louis turned to leave but then remembered he never got the stranger's name. 

"Wait... I never caught your name" Louis called into the darkness.

Without turning back to face him he replied "Its Styles, Harry Styles"

And that was the name that spun around Louis's head as he walked back to his flat, Harry fucking Styles.
