Chapter 4

The interviewer looked irritated as he read through my files. He sighs and closes it.

"Mr Tomlinson," He says cheerfully, like he wasn't just angry a few second before, "My name is Paul please, have a seat"

I sit down and give him my biggest smile. Be yourself.

"You have quite an impressive report Sir," Paul says, "And to be honest, you are the only one with draw backs and things you'd be uncomfortable with in your resume"

I didn't know those were included, "I like to be honest with my clients and managers" I lied. Lying comes naturally if you are part of the organisations. It's part of the training.

"And it helps us be careful and choose our employees easily. Luckily enough for you, this job will make sure you aren't uncomfortable"

"Thank you. Is there anything you'd like to ask me?" Louis asks. This interview is not going properly, and according to Zako, he's probably come for the wrong thing... or he's been misinformed.

"Are these missions fake?" Paul asks, face serious.

"No Sir"

Paul raises a brow and leans back in his chair, "How would I know?"

"The numbers of the people I worked for and with are in the files, if you'd like to clear any doubt."

"You're wearing a suit?" Paul asks, giving me a weird look and a raise of his eyebrow. It's the same look Zayn had given me when I told him I was applying for body guard and needed a suit.

"Yes Sir"

"Okay" Paul says, looking amused, "You did well. Do you see that door at the back? Can you go there? We'll see you shortly." He says and stands up to shake my hand. I shook it and followed his directions to walk into a room with 3 other people. They looked up at me expectantly until they seemed to adopted similar faces of irritation and went back to whatever they were doing. The room was huge but quite empty, there's a long table with small snacks on it and Louis' suddenly grateful. He'd been here all morning with nothing to eat. He picks up a chocolate pastry and walks to where the chairs are. There's only two, he's guessing one's for him and another person... who?

And that's when Louis realizes that he may have got the job.
