So, I woke up to the news I was getting a new job. I mean, it's exciting and all but bloody hell, it's a bit quick. I've always been cautious when meeting guys as I was screwed over by my ex on more than one occasion. Harry did seem different but, at the end of the day, he was a superstar. Popstars and celebrities don't tend to have a great track record when it comes to girlfriends. And now I was going to be working with him everyday aswell. Wow we'd only just met! It made me very nervous to think that in such a short space of time I'd built this relationship with Harry bloody Styles. Another concern was that I didn't really know the other guys too well. If I was to be working with them I'd need to get to know them.
"What if the other lads think your stupid Harry? What if they think I'm taking you for a ride and using you? I couldn't work with people who thought that about me." I needed some reassurance before I jumped in head first.
"Babe, I've told you, Liam and Niall love you and I know for a fact you'll get on with Louis and Zayn too. They would never make you feel bad even if they didn't like you to be honest. I don't really like Sophia but I don't show it because at the end of the day Liam loves her. We respect each other and our own decisions. Stop worrying anyway your amazing they'll love you." I knew this was what he really wanted and he was getting passionate about it now.
"Ok Ok obviously I'm gonna take it. Can we go for like a meal with your whole team or something or have everyone round here so I can meet them all?".
"Of course we'll have everyone round here. I'll text them now. Tonight ok? You cooking?"
"Hi guys I know it's short notice, but you need to come to mine tonight. New member of the team you need to meet. Food and drinks on me. Let me know if you can make it".
Sat around Harry's dinner table were a LOT of people. It was amazing how many people it took to work with the guys. We had Niall, Liam and Sophia, Louis (Eleanor couldn't make it), Zayn and Perrie, Lou (the boys hairdresser), Paul the tour manager and a few burly Irish security guys. Everyone was chattering away and laughing and I was becoming quite nervous. "Lucy you okay?"Harry could tell something wasn't quite right with me.
"Sure, I could do with a hand dishing up this food though".
"Wow this looks amazing Lucy did you do this all yourself?" Louis was so polite when he wanted to be.
"Erm yeah, it's nothing really. I have a huge family and my mums Italian so I've always been taught how to cook big portions haha". It was true. My mum was from Sorrento in Italy, so all her side of the family loved their food. I'd been taught from a young age the secrets of cooking a hearty, Italian meal so this was a walk in the park.
"The breads handmade aswell. I make everything from scratch." I was pleased with the way everyone had such a smile on their faces whilst looking at the vast menu I'd put on. Homemade bread, garlic butter and mushrooms and olives to start. For main course I'd done the staple Lasagne. Couldn't go wrong with that. And for dessert I'd done an obvious Tiramisu - my moms secret recipe was one like I'd never tasted before.
"Bloody hell Luce, if I'd known you could cook like this I'd of hired you as a chef never mind my PA" Harry slipped out the purpose of the dinner.
"What? You've hired her as your PA. I thought she was your missus not your employee H?" Zayn looked a little confused.
"Yeah, well she is, kind of, we've only just met and I want to get to know her so this was the only way I could think where she got to spend lots of time with us".
"Nah it's wicked mate she seems a nice enough girl and Lucy, if you can cook like this you can do this on the road for us" Zayn smiled a kind smile and made me feel good about taking the job.
