********************************************************************
The Christmas vacation is over and here we are standing in front of the huge building where me and Niall are supposed to do internship together for whole semester. Everything worked out fine and we got selected to do internship at this pretigious publishing house which is years old goes by name of " ALYSTER PUBLISHING HOUSE " It's a weird name for publishing house what with it's a Greek word meaning " Defender of Mankind " but it is somewhat true in its own twisted way as books have the power to change people for better and worse. Anyway it was our dream to work here and finally we got opportunity to accomplish our dream. It also turns out that Bobs and Papa are friends with the owner of this company , so they told that we will be in safe hands and well protected which doesn't make much sense. I mean from whom we need protection but whatever I don't question parents' instinct and intuitions as they are hard to argue. I am excited and nervous at the same time to work here . Niall is not better himself as he is talking way too much gibberish and his thumbs are rubbing his fingers which is a sign of him being nervous if u look closely otherwise he looks just a bundle of joy and excitement from afar.
I don't know who is the CEO as I have never seen him or met him as if I will meet him in the garden or coffee shop but that's just an expression. I have heard that he is the youngest to get this position in 100 years of history of this company. So when I saw its old its literally very very old and renowned company. I wish he is not hostile or arrongant like some snotty brat but I get this feeling that everything will turn out great and maybe will get a real work and paid job here as well till the end of semester and we will make many new friends.
We enter the building and all I see is tall glass doors with heavy crystal chandeliers hanging from the ceiling, soft red couches lined near the reception area which is artfully arranged with flower vases on the sides and opened book as the table and stacks of books as chairs making it all look as royal library from fairy tale with traditional and modern touch. The floor is carpeted too with heavy thick red carpet with swirling patterns of gold and copper and I bet it will be smooth and spongy to walk barefooted on it. I resist the urge to remove my vans and check it. As we walked towards the reception area , a beautiful girl with black kair and blue eyes greeted us politely.
" Hello Misters, How can I help you ? "
Getting acknowledged as Misters seems odd. While I am subtly trying to hide my facial expressions , Niall is freely snickering beside me and trying very hard not to laugh and failing royally. He beats me in giving answer and opens his loud mouth saying " Enough with the formalities dear, we are going to see each other daily excluding weekends , of course , for 6 months so we better get to first names and kill this awkward silence . I am Niall and this is Louis What do u think Miss..?? "
" I don't sense any silence Niall because somebody decided to be loud and obnoxious " I mutter to him but he seems like adorable confused puppy and tilts his head to the side arguing
" What are you talking about Tommo ?"
I can hear the receptionist start to laugh lightly as she eyes us amusedly. " I am Eleanor and its pleasure to meet my two future cute besties "
Me and Niall both smile at her and where I try to shake hands with her , Niall goes and hugs her while laughing and I feel we already have a friend here and so now nothing can go wrong hopefully if this is the start .
Eleanor continued " So I guess you are the two interns. I am so happy to meet you, finally somebody of my age here feels refreshing and chatterbox as you Niall , we are gonna be best friends. Our lunch break will be at the same time at 12:30 pm so will meet then and get to know each other better. Now you both need to go and report to your supervisiors which will be 20th floor for Niall and top floor that is 30th for you Louis . I will see you at cafeteria on floor 10th "
We were bidding our goodbyes to Eleanor with me standing and waving like a fool and Niall already hugging her for second time. I hope El don't mind because Niall is just so forward sometimes but he means well. Niall and El's hugging moment was interrupted by a loud booming voice coming from a little distance away.
" What is going on here ? Eleanor why are you hugging this kid , this is unprofessional and unaccepted "
The man standing in front of us was tall like 6' 0'' with puppy brown eyes , well built stature with biceps and I bet with 6 or 8 packs in black pants white shirt and navy blue jacket with tattoos peeking out from his sleeves. He was dressed little casual for talking about professionalism but judging by his stance he is our senior so better not question him but Niall has some different ideas of himself so again his traitor mouth opened. But what I saw in mere moments before was literally drooling Niall and I saw him getting lost in that man's eyes. He never acts like that. He was all silent and shy and what the hell......blushing ?? This is bad, very bad. But he composed himself and continued
" Excuse me but she is now my friend and I initiated the hug so please don't blame her and may I know who are you to ask all these questions to me and act all mighty like some avengers superhero in disguise on secret mission...."
" Niall....Niall stop it " I tried to stop him but all in vain . I really hate when he gets all mighty himself because then I have to fix the mess he creates.
" You are Niall Horan right ? Well you will be glad to know that I am your supervisor or Boss whatever u wanna call me Mr. Liam Payne . I hope now I have your permission to act all mighty in your words and in my words as the rightful senior "
If we were in different situation I would have died laughing by watching Niall's face. He was now red as tomato with mouth wide open and sweaty hands. This is what happens when u don't do it Tommo way Hah! Take it blondie ! But I feel sad for him too... I hope this Liam guy treats him well and don't go all bossy on him because crying Niall is a sight I never wish to see Again.
" Uh uh..um I uh no...mm s-s-sorry " This was the intelligent response Niall conjured up. But wait a second did I see fond in Liam's eyes.
" Will do this time but remember well next time if I see you all cozy in working hours with any other employees then you will be out even before u can say S of sorry . Am I clear kid ? "
Looks like Niall is in deep shit but he brought this all on him himself. I really hope my supersivor, whoever he is , is quite , kind and gentle. I can't be with someone who is rude and arrongant as I would be crying half of the time he raises his voice and insults me.
" Um..Y-yes uh S-sir ? And plz can u like not call me Kid. I am 18 that means an adult "
Niall immediately backtracked when he saw Liam's stern expression " I mean Never mind . How silly of me I am still kid compared to you...Not that you are old, only a bit elder like in a cool way with tall dark handsome vibe from some MIB movie but more like man in blue ...and I am so sorry.. I will shut up now before......."
The impressive ramble of Niall was cut off by cold sentence " Shut Up and Follow me "
And there goes my leprechaun following Liam as a lost kicked puppy but not before kissing my cheek and pleading for help in his eyes. I mentally wish him luck and try to provide him comfort through my eyes until the elevator doors closes.
" I think you should also go Louis before you get your dose like Niall. Poor him , he is so cute . See you at lunch "
And then I enter the other elevator , press the button awaiting for my destination to see what future holds for me and how things will turn out with my supervisor Mr. Harry Edward Styles.
By the way , I like his name.
LIAM JAMES PAYNE
AGE : 25 YEARS
