A/N- Hey guys. So the pov that the story is in may change quite a bit, im still not sure yet but we're starting off with Louis. I'm sorry if this sucks, but i hope you have fun reading!
Louis POV
"Oi, Zayn! Wait up mate" I called to my best mate, Zayn Malik. He was currently way too far ahead of me and obviously had no intention of slowing down. I rolled my eyes and jogged to catch up to him.
"Oh, nice to see you, Louis." He joked. I slapped his arm. "Not funny" I stated. He just laughed and continued walking.
"Why are you even excited? It's not like Uni's going to be any different from high school." Zayn didn't get excited about much, so seeing him so eager to get to Uni was confusing. It was our first day, but still... it's not that big of a deal.
" I wouldn't expect you to understand, Tommo. But some people actually enjoy going to Uni." I sighed, "You don't even know what it's like yet. The only thing I'm excited for is when we can leave and go back home."
Zayn and I got an apartment together a few weeks ago, because neither one of us wanted to risk sharing a dorm with a total stranger. I was still getting used to it, but for the most part it was comfortable.
"Of course, that's the thing you'd be happy about." He said. "I'm looking forward to taking art classes."
"Ohh, yea makes sense." I remembered now, how the previous night Zayn was talking nonstop about his art classes, and how amazing they would be. To be honest, I wasn't listening very much. We had put my favorite film, Grease, on and that's all I was focused on.
"Would you want to visit the bakery later today?"
"What bakery?"
"The bakery I work at, you dumbass." Zayn rolled his eyes, and I scoffed "Excuse you, I am not a dumbass. And no, I don't want to go to your stupid bakery." He rolled his eyes again but didn't respond.
"Wait" I said, causing him to stop walking and turn around.
"What?"
"Do they have tea? Yorkshire tea?"
"Oh my god Louis. Yes, they have Yorkshire tea."
I stopped and pretended to consider. "Well... I guess i could stop by. Only for a little bit though..." "Louis stop being an ass and start walking. I'm not going to be late to class on the first day, just because you think you're funny." He said it with a smile, though so i knew he wasn't mad.
However, I did start walking. Because when Zayn was mad, he was scary. Don't tell him I said that.
*Later that day*
As soon as my last lecture ended, I bolted out the door and ran down the hallway to find Zayn. I wasn't looking where I was going and ran right into someone.
"Hey, what the fuck?"
I stepped back a bit and saw a slightly younger girl with hazel eyes and brown hair. "I am so sorry; I wasn't looking where I was going... are you okay?"
Her eyes scanned over me, taking in my appearance. "Oh, yea I'm fine, don't worry about it. My name's Eleanour, what's yours?"
"Uh, Louis", I answered. "I've gotta go now so..."
"Oh right! Of course!" She jutted out her hip and twirled a piece of her hair in her fingers. "Bye, Louis," she smirked, before turning around and walking away, swaying her hips as she did.
"What the fuck just happened..." I muttered to myself, and I continued walking and looking for Zayn. Luckily for me I didn't have to wait long.
He came running over, "Mate, were you just talking with Eleanour?!"
"Well hello to you too, my day was great thanks for asking," I said.
Zayn hit my arm lightly, "Answer me, Lou."
"Damn, okay. Yea I was. I accidentally ran into her while looking for you," I paused to glare at him, "and i stopped to apologize and ask if she was okay. Why? What's the big deal?"
As we walked to the bakery, Zayn began explaining to me everything he had heard about Eleanour, from rumors to confirmed facts. As he droned on about the countless dudes she's apparently been with, I allowed my thoughts to wander.
"Why are avocados a thing?"
"What even are they? Are they a fruit or a vegetable..?
"It doesn't matter, I hate fooking avocados."
"Like why are they even trend-Oh hey a pigeon!"
"I wonder what it's name is...what if it doesn't have one?
"I'm going to name it...KEVIN!! Yes! That's a perfect name for a pigeon!"
"I wonder if Zayn would let me keep it-
"LOUIS"
I was startled out of my thoughts by Zayn yelling at me. "What, Zayn?!?"
"Were you listening to a single word I said, Lou?"
"Um... yes?"
He sighed and rolled his eyes. "Forget it, we're here anyway."
I turned and stepped back, looking at the bakery. It was small, yet it had an almost homey feel to it. I walked to the door and opened it, then turned back to Zayn.
"After you, my good sir."
He laughed, "Why thank you, Louis."
I smiled cheekily, walking in behind him. The smell of fresh baked pastries and coffee enveloped me instantly, and I breathed in deeply as I looked around. The walls were a nice off-white color, that went well with the dark brown accents all around. I looked towards the register, and I felt my breath catch in my throat, as I locked eyes with an emerald-eyed angel.
