Louis POV

* COUGH COUGH *

"Ugh, fuck me" I groaned, clearing my sore throat.

"I gladly would"

"Justin, act your age will you?" Danielle rolls her eyes as she places a cup of tea in front of me.

Well, this day started off great. Note the sarcasm.
I woke up this morning feeling like absolute shit, like everyday, but worse. I know what I have is a bad fever but I couldn't miss a day of work, even if Justin happens to make it worse by annoying the shit out of me.

"Here Louis, this will help you with your sore throat"

"Thank you Dani" I sniffed, taking a sip of my tea as she sighs, sitting in front of me.

"I don't get why you came to work today. You can barely breath from your own mouth, and not to mention that snotty nose of yours"

"I have bills to pay this week, I couldn't take an off day. Plus I'm fi..fin....*sneeze*....I'm fine!"

"Yeah it sure doesn't sound like it" she said, handing me a napkin to blow my nose in it.

"Just take the day off Lou. I don't want you sneezing on our customers when you're taking their orders. I'm surprised you even drove here on your own without crashing"

"I drove just fine....except for driving past two stop lights and hitting an old lady"

"YOU RAN OVER AN ELDERLY WOMAN!?"

"No no, she's fine. I just hit her cane, and the bags of groceries she had broke her fall. She's okay, she hit me with her cane when I tried help her up"

"Oh no, you even got two bumps on your head" Danielle pouts, taking a look at my forehead, slightly touching the bumps.

"Probably from his fever" Justin furrowed his eyebrows.

"No those bumps were from the old lady. She had a mean swing"

"Well you're not driving home. Isn't there someone I can call so they can pick you up? Anyone who isn't working?"

The only person I know is Harry. He doesn't work at this hour, but you have to slap my face really hard with fish if you think I'm calling him.

"No I don't. It's okay, I'll just-"

"I'll drive him home!"

Justin cheekily waves his hand, a huge smile on his face

Justin cheekily waves his hand, a huge smile on his face. I furrowed my eyebrows, shaking my head as I saw that Danielle was actually considering it.

"Yeah sure. Why not? It's a slow day today, I can manage for a few hours on my own"

"NO WA-*cough cough*"
