Day 9

Ashton isn't a complete dumbass, but he's a total idiot. There's not much difference, but Louis felt the need to say it when he stopped Ashton from angrily marching down to where the blonde was usually sat.

"You idiot, what were you thinking?"

"I wasn't," he admitted sheepishly and then got back to serving people.

It's the second day where Harry hadn't shown up, and both of them are now frustrated. Louis because he was wondering where did his Prince Charming go, and Ashton on why did his Prince Charming rejected him.

Fucking fairytales and their fucking false hopes.

And then the bell chimed, followed by a lost looking blonde through the glass door. But he grinned when he finally reached the counter, and Louis detected his Irish accent when he finally speak up.

"Are you Louis?" before Louis could ask, the blonde's eyes darted to Louis' nametag and he chuckled, "Of course you are. Brunette, blue eyes, early-twenties looking. I would've described it with as much detail as Harry did but I'm not the one whipped here."

Louis was startled when he heard the name Harry and the word whipped in the same sentence. "Harry?" he questioned hoarsely. Thank God he wasn't the one to blush, or it would be even more embarrassing. 

The blonde nodded, handing him a piece of paper and explained, "Yep, Harry told me to give this to you."

Louis was about to reply (again) when the Irishman suddenly raised his voice, "Aye cutie!" Making most heads in the shop turn, Louis was confused until he followed the direction of his stare and landed on Ashton who was staring back equally confused from the table he was serving near the counter.

"Me?" he squeaked lamely, blush evident in his cheeks, the kid surely doesn't get complimented a lot (Louis had made sure to tease him about it later.)

The other blonde only laughed, Louis only realized how contagious it was until a low giggle escaped his lips. "Yeah you with the nice ass."

Louis' eyes widened, staring at Ashton with the telepathical message of 'I fucking told you someone would finally appreciate that ass' in hopes that actually Ashton gets it.

After he finally finished writing down the order, Ashton shyly walked over to where they were. "Hi," he greeted, waving his notepad.

"I'm Niall Horan, what time do you get off work?" the blonde -who Louis will now register as Niall, asked boldly.

Louis figured that Ashton might need a person like Niall in his life, so being the nice friend he is he answered for Ashton, "He finishes at eight, he has a passion for chocolate and bands, and he's a total shybaby so you'll need to warm up to him first. But don't cuddle him, just don't. And don't poke him either."

While Ashton stared at Louis with his jaw on the ground, Niall looked at Louis with a smile on his face, impressed. "I can see why Harry likes you, ball of sunshine." He stated, and then turned to Ashton again, "Anyway, do you happen to be free tonight after work?"

Ashton nodded eagerly. Niall only chuckled and said, "Right. Meet me at Martin's down the street tonight and we can start an adventure."

With that, he walked out with defined steps and a confident grin. "Fucking hell," Ashton sighed but then his face turned into a dreamy expression when he leaned on the counter. "I have a date with the Greek God Apollo tonight, fuck. That kid is the embodiment of sunshine, funny how he called you sunshine, Louis. But if you do think about it, we're all sunshines, huh-"

Louis tuned out on Ashton's rambling when he opened the piece of paper Niall handed him earlier. He stared at the all lowercase handwriting style on the paper and grinned, normally he would be annoyed but he isn't, maybe because it has something to do with the fact that it was Harry's handwriting.

sorry for being mia, lou. i was sick and i figured you must be missing my jokes... or you probably don't, heck, i don't even know if you even like my daily jokes. but let's just pretend you do, so i don't have to come in tomorrow with shame.

The first thing that came to Louis' mind was how he thinks it's impossible not to like Harry (ahem, and his jokes of course.)
