My mind raced as I tossed and turned all night. I couldn't stop thinking about Louis and just exactly what I felt. I'll admit, I was just a little smitten but I knew that he was bad news and that being with him would truly wreck everything I've worked for.

When the morning came, I climbed out of bed and stretched my back really quick, listening to the bones crack and adjust from their rest. I walked over to the closet and pulled out a pair of jeans for this chilly London morning. I grabbed an old sweatshirt from Colorado that my mother and father picked up for me and a pair of fuzzy socks. I pulled on the clothes and then when I was finished, I grabbed a hairbrush and raked it through my ratty hair. I pulled it back into a braid and brushed my teeth.

I walked out into the kitchen to grab some food and what I saw made me stop in my tracks.

"What the hell?!"

Louis looked up from the eggs he was cooking on the stove and gave me a smile. "Mornin', Paige! Thought I could make you some breakfast before class this morning. It's the most important meal of the day!" He went back to making his breakfast as if it was completely normal for him to be in my flat this early in the morning.

"How did you get in?!" I exclaimed.

He pointed his spatula over to the couch where a familiar brown mop top was sitting next to Katie. "Harry Styles?"

Harry's head turned in time until both him and Katie were looking at me. Katie smile brightly and hopped up from the couch, pulling Harry up with her. "Isn't this amazing! Harry and Louis are in our flat!" She squealed but she was obviously missing the confused expression that I wore. I scratched my head and asked again, "How did they get in our flat?"

"They knocked on the door this morning and when I answered Louis asked to see you!" She said, going back to her spot in the couch.

She sent me a wink and when I looked back to Louis, he was dropping the eggs onto the plate and starting a new batch. "I wanted to make you breakfast and Harry came along because we have the same class every morning. When Katie opened the door, she fainted at the sight of Harry so he has been taking care of her. Now, I'm making both of you breakfast."

Harry walked over to grab Katie's plate of eggs and brought it to her on the couch. I could practically feel the chemistry going on between the two of them and it made me sick to my stomach thinking of all the trouble she'd get in but alas, seventeen years of friendship has prepared me for it.

"Breakfast is ready, love." Louis chirped while sliding a plate of eggs onto the bar. I took a seat atop a stool and picked up the fork. "Thank you, Louis, but you don't have to do this." He shrugged and washed out the skillet in the sink. "I was hoping that I could still make it up to you for yesterday. I didn't mean to scare you either but Katie let us in."

"Is this going to be a reoccurring thing? I don't think I have enough eggs for the whole week." I said with a chuckle. Louis smiled and took a sip of his milk. "I wanted to see you again too."

I looked up into his beautiful eyes and smiled slightly, my cheeks becoming warm. "Well, I really do appreciate this."

"What class do you have first?" Harry shouted with a mouth full of eggs.

"Liberal arts, over in the J building." I said.

"I have music history over by the L building." Katie answered.

"Perfect, we'll walk you two to class. We have class in the O building." Louis said, grabbing my empty plate and Katie's as well before placing them in the sink. "Grab your bags and let's go, we don't want to be late for your first day of class.
