Hey Angels !

My Uni started so I have decided that I will update on every Sunday now onwards :)

Without further ado.....enjoy the chappy !

****************************

As soon as I entered the canteen I was armful of Blonde hair and for a moment I flinched thinking about Camille but then I smelled that familiar scent of Niall and relaxed and let myself hug him back tightly as I needed my brother's comfort the most at this time. He removed his arms from around me and now I was hugged by El. She is sweet girl and I see us becoming the infamous trio in future.

Suddenly I felt my hairs stand up on the back of my neck as if somebody was staring at me and as I turned I saw a man staring intensely at me and Niall as if inspecting us from head to toe. His eyes flickered to the scratches on my arm and frowned but I quickly tried to hide it as I was getting really uncomfortable but when I looked in his eyes they were warm and soft . I let myself give him a soft smile and surprisingly he returned it and started eating his food.

Niall and El didn't notice this as they were middle of some heated discussion about superheroes. I joined them on our table and sweet Niall had already served my plate as he knew what I wanted and did I see some chocolate muffin..... I can kiss him right now as they are my favourite and 'go to' thing when I am sad. He catches my thankful smile and pecks me on cheek and just like that we started eating and talking about our day without any intervention of awkward moments.

But the calm was broken when Liam came storming inside and straight at Niall with determined steps. The whole canteen was watching the exchange as Liam grabbed his hand and took him or rather dragged him away
from us and out of the canteen. Everyone was too shocked to do anything but stare and after some tense moments started eating again. I searched for that man with warm smile but didn't even find him . When did he left ? I was brought back by El 's voice

" This is strange. Mr.Payne never acts like this way. He is normally polite and level headed compared to Mr. Styles " She whispered last part in my ear . Of course we don't want any goody two shoes to go and alert Mr. Styles about our extraordinary comparisons.

" Maybe today he is having rough day . Poor Niall ! I wish I can help him in some way "

" Me too.... You say Liam is polite and you know rest from what you said earlier.. I won't repeat that as I can't say that about him so back to the topic , how is Mr. Styles in real ? "

" First of all How cute of you and Secondly , Mr. Styles is very reserved person. He is little uptight I might say , don't smile or laugh openly often , he is so you know kinda brooding type I guess...I don't really know much about him. Actually now I think nobody knows him so.......personally but Mr.Payne is his best friend and there is one other too. "

" hmmm....I wish he approves of my work."

" Hey, don't be gloomy. He will approve ..he has to, I mean look at you . You are too cute to deny anything sweetie "

I know my cheeks were burning but after that Camille incident it was nice to know that I have someone here as a friend and maybe that anonymous guy will be good too.

I mumbled " Thank you El . You are sweet too "

She laughed lightheartedly and leaned to kiss me on my cheeks. At that moment Camille came in all her beauty and clicking of heels. She stopped t our table , glared at El when she mumbled " Speak of the Devil..." not so subtly and sneered at me " You have some urgent work to deal with so get your fat ass in there Lewis "

She turned but then stopped to add something at El

" And you ....how convenient . You all make an epic trio of losers . Congratulations Elk for your small minions "

" Shall we go Ms Rowe ? "

She glared at me once again and started walking swiftly as I followed her. I threw one last glance at El and we offered each other a warm smile before she disappeared from my view .

" I told you to stay away from him then why did you make a move. HARRY IS MINE SO BACK OFF YOU UGLY CREATURE '

I was too shocked to react but somehow I found my voice and answered her . I cannot hear her bullshit accusations and what makes her think all this stupid stuff as if Harry will ever choose me over her because whatever but she is beautiful and I am not .

" I did not do anything Ms. Rowe. I am sorry for any misunderstanding "

" I will watch you. Don't ever pull anything like that on me "

She gave me some drafts to edit which needed to be send immediately and left me at my desk. I started doing it and completed it at 4:00 pm when she came to collect them again. Only one more hour and then I get to go home and cuddle with my teddy and talk to Niall properly.

Last hour went by smoothly but I was worried about Niall as to what made Liam react that way and was he okay ? I really wanted to go and check but decided against it as it was enough drama on my first day and I don't want another to the list.

At 5:00pm sharp I signed off in my leave register and started towards elevator when Mr.Styles too came and waited for it as I called elevator up . There was uncomfortable silence and tension as thick which can be cut with a knife . I was too afraid to start to talk and I didn't even know what to talk . I was saved from my dilemma when elevator dinged and opened. We entered silently and stood at the opposite corners, As the elevator started descending I heard him saying in a slow yet soft voice

" Louis , it was wrong of me to act that way with you. "

" Its okay Mr. Styles , you are the Boss here and it was inappropriate and unprofessional to barge in and act in such way. I profusely apologise for that , that won't happen again "

" Why ?....I mean No...it was actually nice of you to show concern..Um it shows your uh dedication and loyalty. So lets wrap that up already and one more thing....Call me Mr.H "

While saying that he touched my arm lightly above the nail marks as if feather and stromed away leaving me alone wondering if it was real.

As I entered the hall I saw Niall hugging El and saying goodbye . I walked in that direction and bid my goodbye as well. Me and Niall hold hands and started walking towards home. The silence was comfortable and we both were lost in our thoughts. It just seemed right to be walking quietly side by side without uttering a word and making other know about the comfort . We had a lot to talk about after getting home. Oh God ! I really need Ma's hot chocolate .
