Chapter 8

I want to apologize for not writing sooner. I know the excuse I'm aboit to throw at you guys is a terrible one but it's worth a shot. I literally had no clue where to go with this story but thankfully an amazing friend helped me. Love you lots!

3rd person

Louis turned to Niall, his glass half empty.

"Where did they go?" Louis pointed through the crowd at the elevator.

"Harry and Liam?"

"Yeah."

"Just tour around." Louis pretended to be thinking about something, his phone vibrating in his jeans. Louis turned to Niall.

"I gotta take this." Niall smiled lightly, walking away from Louis.

Louis grabbed his phone checking the caller ID. 'Eleanor' He quickly declined sending a 'I'm busy right now' text and placing his phone back in his pocket, glancing around at all the men in their suits.

One month later

Louis entered his business, again being greeted by Eleanor.

"Louis! How was it?" Louis offered her a fake smile, wishing to see those green eyes again.

"It was, it was good Eleanor, fine."

Harry closed his front door, having stayed a few extra days in Washington.

He rolled his luggage into the living room letting go of the handles and walking over to the couch and sitting down with a sigh.

Louis sat behind his desk, someone lightly knocking on his door.

Louis looked up.

"Come in." The door slightly opening revealing jet black hair. Louis quickly stood up, fixing his shirt.

Zayn entered his office, taking a quick look around before stopping in front of Louis desk.

"Louis, I was just in Cali since, I'm sure youve heard, my buisness decided to build one here and we just opened up shortly. Cutting to the point, I need someone to work with. Someone who understands business and Ive come to offer you a proposal. I'm thinking of collaborating with you and Harry."

Louis heart fluttered at just the lads name.

"But, since you own a clothes and car company and seeing as he owns a shoe and car company, I see where there might be a conflict. Therefore, I've made a small competition for you. Both of you have six months to come up with fresh ideas. At the end of six months, I will pick one of you to merge with. Good luck." Zayn turned away, walking back out.

Louis stood there in shock, trying to process what Zayn had just informed him. He sat back down just as Eleanor entered his office.

"Louis?" Louis lifted his head, looking at her as she came closer, sitting down across from him.

"Can I tell you something?" Louis took a deep breath, folding his hands and smiling.

"Course."

"Okay, so, I've been thinking about us." Louis furrowed his eyebrows, leaning in closer.

"Us? What do you mean us Eleanor?"

"I mean us Louis, me and you. As a couple. I like you Louis, I really do but we can't have a relationship working in the same place therefore I quit. I can move in with you and we ca-"

Louis held up a hand, signaling her to stop.

"You quit?"

"I quit for u-"

"You quit? For us? There is no us, El. There never was an us."

"But how about the hand holding and the roses."

"That was like, two months ago!" Louis slowly stood up, placing his hands flat against the counter.

"Dont say that. I like you. Please, just give me a chance?"

"Yeah, yeah. Can you, can you just leave please? I have too much right now just, I'll call you in a bit and we can talk, okay?"

Eleanor quickly nodded, getting up and walking out.
