            “Good evening Manchester University, this is The Tommo and I am coming to you live from the radio studio! It is Friday night, which means it is Flashback Friday and we are going to kick it off with Iris by The Goo-Goo Dolls, the 90’s were such a beautiful era for music.” Louis Tomlinson loved his job at the radio station, he had been doing it since he was a freshman and he was good at it, he has even been scouted by BBC and Magic. This was what he wanted to do when he got out of Uni, he wanted to do it while he was trying to break into theater (acting was his passion after all). Louis’s time slot was a weird one, he was from six to twelve at night, it amazed him how he got his essays done. He loved everything about this job: Louis loved picking songs; he loved how got to pick themes out (like Flashback Friday or Saturday Night Fever or Inspirational Sunday); Louis loves that he gets to organize events but most of all, he loves that he is the most popular radio personality. “Up next is Yellow Submarine by The Beatles, best boy band ever and we all know it! After this song, I’ll be reading some fan mail and giving out some advice, stay around for Flashback Friday.” Louis pulled up his email on the computer screen that was not connected to the music; he read through some and kept a few open that he planned on reading as he waited for the song to finish up. “Welcome back, you are listening to Manchester U radio and I am The Tommo, it is Flashback Friday and we are starting fan mail. If you want to me to read something from you, send it to tommotummy@manuradio.com and I will give it a read, it might even make it on the radio.” Louis clicked on the one of the emails, pulling it up on the screen and pushing his black rimmed glasses back into place, “Our first email is from Pretty Princess and they say, ‘Dear Tommo, your bum is just absolutely fantastic, I mean, it is glorious. How can people allow you to walk around and not want to tie you to their beds, seriously?’ Now, I want you all to realize that this is Nick Grimshaw, better known as Grimmy from the morning show. He makes it his life mission to find random girls or guys and ask them if he can use their emails to send me ridiculous emails, so thank you. Stop allowing Grimmy to use you! Our next song is Joy to the World by Three Dogs Night, one of my favourite songs since I saw that Hillary Duff movie.” Louis pressed the button and when he heard the music start to play, he pulled out his phone to read a text, which he knew was there because it vibrated when he was talking.

It’s not lies, they are the truth, you wanker. I’m done at twelve, is that still good for you?

            “Dear Tommo, I like this guy (even though I have not said more than four words to him at a time) but he hates me, because of my major. How can I get him to like me without changing my major, it’s my passion and I love doing it, but I really want to get to know me? Signed, A Loveless Passion. Well, Loveless Passion, here is the deal. You need to make the person understand that your major is your passion or try to figure out why they hate your major so much and make them see the light. I had this girlfriend one time, she hated the radio -don’t know how that is really possible but- but I got her to see that the radio is a lost medium. She eventually decided to date me and she is a huge radio fan now, so that’s my advice. Sorry if it isn’t the best but it’s all I have, I want you to keep faith though. Here is Don’t Stop Believing by Journey for Loveless Passion.” Louis checked his phone to see that Grimmy answered him that it was fine, he would still be up and they were going to watch a movie. To be honest, Louis was sort of excited; he doesn’t hang out with anyone but Grimmy. Louis had his flat mate Liam but Liam was a very studious guy and didn’t want to hang out with Louis, unless all of his work was done (which hardly ever happened, Liam took a lot of classes).
