LOST AND STILL FINDING(larry stylinson)

Louis’ p.o.v
I got up so fresh today. it was great to be up at the right time no too early. Not too late either. just fine and I was happy.

So I got up from my bed yawning and stepped outside my room. The cool breeze from the hallway caught me shivering as I was still just in my boxers. When I walked through the hallway and entered the hall I found that the balcony doors were already open. Maybe harry left them open last night.

I walked through the hall to go and stand outside to feel the breeze. When I reached the door of the balcony I see harry already standing there.

“today so early?” I ask him smiling as I went and leaned against the railing just beside him.

“oh you’re up. I was just waiting for you”

“me? Like waiting for me in the morning?” I say coz he really got me thinking.

“yeah..can I ask you something?” he says but he was hesitating a bit. I don’t know what was the matter.

“yeah sure”

“see..that day when you played the …the piano..”

“yeah..i play it well..i know” I laughed

“yeah..you really do ….and that is w.h.y I was thinking…u know ..um..yeah..why don’t you…”

“why don’t I ..?’’ I try helping him continue. I don’t know why he was hesitating so much.

“why don’t you join …my band?”

“your BAND? What band, which band? I am so confused. What was he trying to say.

“umm. U know I told you I work at the Syco records and you know I even told you about Ed Sheeran coming over this weekend. And you..l know um I actually lost my pianist last week, um he actually left and I am in need of a pianist who can play really well and I think you play really well so…”

“hey hey hey..are you trying to tell me you want to hire me?”

“yeah maybe sort of”

“but..why why? I love my job..and you don’t have to keep doing me favors like this.”

“hey hey hey…c’mon sit” he made sit on the bench. “see its-its not a favor first of all and I’m just offering you –you a job.”

“a job?. I’m totally fine with my job. I’m certainly not agreeing you with this”

“u know what Louis. You are one of the perfect piano players I’ve ever seen. And that is not fake you know. I’ve auditioned around thousands by now…and seriously you’ve been the best and it’ll be an honor if you join.”

“honor? If I join?”

“yeah. It’ll be really nice”

“but what about the bakery?”

“oh. That not a problem. I’ll call ‘em up”

“but seriously harry. Why?” I still cant figure out.

“what why?”

“I mean..i’m still not sure”

“you don’t have to worry. You just have to talk to my boss”

“no you’re doing that for me too” I told him. I was not going to talk to that boss

“c’mon.. I cant do that.”

“okay but—“

“what now Louis?” a total irritated mad he sounded.

“can I go take a bath?” I ask him


“oh yeah sure” he laughed and stood up from the bench and I followed.

“be ready in 10” I said as I stepped aside and walked to my room.
within perfect 10 I was ready but still confused if I should or not but I don’t know what really made me do that but urrggh I don’t know now what to do. I actually accepted that and now I don’t want to go. By this time I was ready but not really. I was dressed up but not for the piano thingy..right now I loved my bakery even if they made me work like rats and gave me half a salary. I was just fine with it right now. and right now I was really not going there, yes I wasn’t.
before harry could come here and convince me again. I’m gonna lock myself up here in this room. So I hurry up to the door and shut up and locked it. “I’m done I’m not going.

HARRY’S P.O.V
I was waiting for Louis in the hall from the past 15 minutes I guess and there was no sign of him anywhere. It was already 8:30 and we have to leave early.

“Louis?” I call out to him. I did not get an answer.

“Louis. We’re getting late c’mon faster” I say again as I screamed this time.
I still did not get an answer. I decided to walk up to his room this time. We were really getting late.

“Louis?” I kept on saying while I walked to the hallway. When I reached the door I knocked on it repeatedly. “Louis? Why aren’t you answering. We’re getting late, c’mon out” I say. He was making me a bit angry now. he told me he’d be out in 10. Its already 20 now.

“Louis. Will you please be out?” I scream banging the door hard.

“yeah harry. Just a minute please” he finally says something.

“can you open the door please?” I ask him.

“just a minute haz” after a few seconds I hear the door unlock and he was standing in front of me.

“we’re ready harry” he says as he opens the door.

“what took you so long mister?” I say as I smile brushing away my anger.

“I was just having second thoughts” he says and that made me furious.

“why ?. I’m not forcing you. Its upto you at the end.” I say as I see his face expression falling.

“no no no. I’ve decided now. we’re leaving. I’m coming with you” he says. He pulls me out and hurries to the hall. “you know we’re getting late” he says as he wears his shoes.

“you sure?” I ask him again. I really did not want to force hi with all this.

“yes. I’m damn sure” he says smiling as he twists the door knob and steps outside as I stared at him still standing at my place. So lovely he was.

“so then c’mon” I step outside with a huge smile on my face and locked the door behind me. We walked down to the garage in silence with just a little chit chatter about how is he gonna tell the bakery manager.

And it was finally decided that I was the one going to call them and tell them evrythng. I could do nothing but agree. So on our way to the building of my office I called them up and they agreed.

So we were finally standing here in front of the building waiting for Louis to gather up his confidence to speak to the boss.

“Louis c’mon lets get to the office before you throw up”

“I AM NOT GOING TO THROW UP” Louis says as I got him teasing.

“lets see” we walked into the building and at the reception I asked the lady, “gudmorning. is Simon there in his office?”

“gudmorning sir.He is there in his office waiting for you”

“thank you miss” I say as I walked over to the elevator to get onto the top floor and all the time I noticed Louis did not utter a word.

“are you still worried?” I ask him as we enterd the elevator.

“not really. Just lost in the beauty” he says as he looked around in the elevator and then finally at me.

“beauty?” I ask him confused.

“yeah. The luxury you’re familiar with and its all new to me”

“it wont take long for you”
We were finally at the floor where the office was.

“so you ready?” I ask him again and he smiles as I we walk to the door of the office.

“follow me, okay?”

“Yeah sure”
I knock and peep in.

“hey c’mon in harry” simon says as he sees me and we walk in.

“Have a seat you two” he continues.

“simon so here, this is Louis Tomlinson. The new pianist I told you about.”

“and Louis this is Simon cowell. Our head”

I introduce them to each other.

“hello” they say as they shake hands and smile.

“so Louis you ready to work as the pianist here?”

“I suppose I am. Yeah” Louis says. It was going to be their conversation now.

“so you need to sign this contract here. You can read it all and ask me if you get stuck or for that matter ask harry” simon says as he hands him over the file.

“ohkay. Thanx” Louis says as he takes it and starts reading. It was a bit weird for me coz you know the way simon was official and formal with him directly talking about the work.

“would you like something? Coffee or tea?” simon asks both of us breaking my thought process.

“no” ‘’thanx. we’re fine” I reply for both of us. After I think for about 5 minutes sitting in silence in simon busy with some papers I see Louis signing the papers and handing them over to simon.

“thank you” he says.

“I think the rest of the work harry will be enough to tell you as you’re anyway gonna work under him”

“yeah I think. Yes. He’s already told me some things and I guess he’ll tell er other other too”

“soo. Congratulations. You can begin from tomorrow”

“thank you?”I say as I got up from my seat as I see louis following me.

“thanx” he too says as he shakes his with simon and we both step out together of the office.

“that was soo cool” he says as he looked so happy.
