not edited sorry for mistakes

Louis

 I waited beside my managers door with Tina hanging onto my arm, tugging relentlessly. "Would you f*ckin' stop that?" I groaned, shoving her off of me and rolling my eyes. 

"You need to pick up some manners," she retorted, crossing her arms and looking at me as if she was challenging me. Though I knew better than to give into her ridiculous taunts and games, I couldn't help but spit out a quick, 'twat' and then bite my tongue very quickly afterwards. 

It's not like Tina could ever get me in trouble by our mom, seeing as I had her whole life's worth of hidden mistakes tucked into the back of my mind, I could easily let one slip and have her on house arrest for the rest of her sorry life. But I wasn't that cruel, yet. I really didn't know what I was thinking, offering her a job at the place in which I worked. I mean, it's not like I did a bunch of risky things, it's just that this was mine and Zayn's place to chill and talk because let's face it, no one really stopped by McDonalds in this town. We were surronded by farms and fresh produce, so anyone here would rather knock on their neighbours door and buy a pound of corn to eat instead of some processed grease. Obviously the only reason we were still in buisiness was the fact that the vast majority of teenagers didn't want fresh produce every single night and would much rather spend their monthly allowence on food that didn't taste like dirt. 

Maybe that was just my opinion, but it's the truth. The door in front of us creaked open and Tina stood on her tippy toes, peaking inside. I elbowed her in the ribs and grabbed her arm, leading her inside of the office. Cassandra was sitting there with an amused smile on her face as she studied Tina and I. "This is my sister, Tina,"  I introduced.

"Nice to meet you," Tina stuck out her hand, while Cassandra warily shook it, eyeing me closely.

"Cassandra," Cassandra confirmed.

"Uhm," I said awkwardly, scratching the back of my head, "so, Tina was wondering if you had any jobs open or anything - she needs one."

Cassandra nodded enthusiastically. I knew she would be all for it, she loved employing girls, said they were more friendly and that they drew in costumers, a bit sexist, but I honestly couldn't disagree, Zayn and I were the ultimate slackers, doing anything we could to tread lightly around the desired amount of work in which we were set up to do. Naturally. if Cassandra fired Zayn, Lena would be furious, if Cassandra fired me, Zayn would tell Lena and well, I wouldn't get fired long story short. So in all honesty, I didn't feeel bad about Zayn sleeping with Lena for his desired reasons.

"I'll get Delaney to be your peer tutor and you can start at eight o'clock on Tuesday, any friend of Louis is a friend of mine - oh and Louis, how is Zayn? He called in sick yesterday, did he not?"

I stiffled a laugh, no doubt Zayn called in sick, he was wasted as sh*t and I was forced to call in for him. Who gets wasted at eight o'clock on a Saturday morning? I haven't the slightest clue. "Yeah, he was, he's feeling loads better though, must've been the twenty four hour flu, or somethin'."

She nodded, "great, great, so you wouldn't mind asking him if he could work tomorrow after school of course?"

"I'll see if he's not to busy with school work, sure."

"Thank you, Louis, well I'm so glad we'll have another worker part of the crew, but if you don't mind I have a few papers to sort through, do you have any more questions?" She asked, peering at me hesitantly.

I waved her off, "nah, we're good, thanks."

And so we left, once we were in Zayn's car, Tina was silent, "you're going over to Kates house, yeah?" I asked. 

"Yeah," she said.

I dropped her off at Kates enormous country house and made my way over to Zayn's. I walked right in, no doubt his parent's weren't home and went straight to his room. He sat cross-legged on his bed with little baggy's in hand - pot. 

"What's all that for?" I asked, quite amused at the amount.

"I'm going to London with Lena for like two days and I swear to god, I won't survive without it."

I nodded understandingly, "true."

"I've also just realized that if I want to keep this job I need to keep 'dating' her, which means I'll be 'dating' her until f*cking graduation, mate," Zayn looked at me with wide eyes, almost looking like he was going to cry.

I honestly couldn't help but laugh at his situation, "mate, that sucks."

He brought his hands up to cover his face, "I know and it's not like she's even that great in bed, she always asks me to go slow, make love and like f*ck right? Because I don't f*cking love her."

I patted his back, "I don't know what to say, except you f*cked up, bad."

"Yeah, no sh*t."

"Maybe you should try to show a genuine intrest in her, I mean, if you can learn to tolerate her and maybe even end up liking her in that way then it won't be so bad," I suggested, dumbly.

"Mate, if I have ever showed an actual genuine interest in her, I wouldn't be complaining right now, right? But it's pretty hard when whenever my hands wander down south they get lost in a f*cking jungle, like, sh*t, I almost forget it's a girl and I'm not gonna lie, I almost called her Lou once - once may I remind you so don't give me that look, but it's like, whenever she asked me to go down on her I have to tell her it's not my thing. That's just such a b*llshit lie because if she knew that you and I were exchanging head she'd be gone."

I winced, crinkling up my face, "if she knew you were doing sh*t with anyone but her I think she'd be mad, so like, maybe it'd be more enjoyable if you told her to shave or wax I dunno?" 

"You don't think I've tried that? Every single time I say something she get's all butthurt and ignores me!"

"That's weird."

"Yeah, I know!"

While Zayn went on ranting about how hairy his girltoy was, I blocked him out and scrolled through my Tumblr and Twitter, seeing if anyone was trying to contact me. Only to my surprise, there were literally thousands of notifications, mentions, annonymous questions and I nearly stopped breathing. 

-"Mate," I cut off my rambling friend.

"What?"

"I'm like - Famous!"

Zayn rolled his eyes, "congrats..."
