Summary
Louis can’t believe his luck when he is offered one of the easiest jobs he has had as a long-term house-sitter for the wealthy. He loves the money, and the peace and quiet of the empty mansions he looks after. Most of all he likes that there are no surprises until he gets the shock of his life from ex-pop star Harry Styles who isn’t supposed to be home.

Summary
Rockstar Harry Styles has been making headlines since he was barely legal. After a string of bad decisions, PR nightmares, and an obvious inability to take anything seriously, management insist he needs a full-time, live-in personal assistant. After hiring and firing half of the executive PA's in the city, the boys stumble across one that might be able to put up with Harry's shit.
Applicant:
Name: Louis Tomlinson.
Qualifications: None.
Experience: Two weeks.
Why did you leave your last job: Boss was a wanker.
Past Employer Referee: Absolutely not.
What made you apply: I didn't. Why the fuck are you idiots making me fill this form out after you forced me to take the job?
This is an ongoing Work In Progress - it is not currently finished (hence being a WIP). If that's not your thing, come back once it's done 💞💞💞

Summary
You learn so much about someone by the way they say goodbye.
This is what Louis thinks about in those grey hours between when he wishes he could sleep but has to be awake, and when he should be sleeping but can only think, think, think. The doctors call it insomnia but Louis has his own secret little diagnosis - regret.
For Louis, it was all wrapped up into a single incident. He remembers exactly the moment he decided not to listen to Harry's begging, exactly how deafening he had made the slam of the door on the way out. And that was it for him.
Because that way, he didn't have to linger on the humiliation of the whole thing, didn't have to question his own strength, didn't have to stay vulnerable to Harry for another instant.
It was an emotional shortcut, really. And if that isn't a signature Louis' move, he doesn't know what is.
The fact that it didn't save him any pain at all, that he's still twisting the knife at 4am two years later in the privacy of his own bedroom, is also pretty typical of Louis. He's always been a bit of a masochist.
