Part 1

"Louis Tomlinson" The Dean of the university announces, his strong English accent present and intimidating. Louis gets up, smiling, he goes towards the stage, his last name starts with T so like always he's one of the last ones up. He approaches the stage, ascending the three stairs successfully, he accepts his graduation certificate and the handshake offered. Louis then hears cheering and wolf whistles from the back of the room and Louis knows its his imbecile big brothers.

Louis has waited four years for this moment, living in a small campus dorm, late study nights, exam after exam, its all been worth it though, for this moment. He's graduated with top honours in his degree, hoping to pursue a career in architecture and design.

As he gets off the stage he and his best friend Noah hug each other and smile brightly.

"We did it Lou!" Noah smiles.

"London here we come" Louis smiles back.

Louis and Noah have been roommates for the last three years. Noah is two years older with Blonde curly hair, blue eyes and a deep tan, one would mistake him for an Australian surfer. Noah started his degree later than Louis due to having a two year gap year.

After Louis first roommate got expelled from the campus for inappropriate behaviour, Noah and Louis were assigned together. Noah is straight but doesn't have a girlfriend, he majored in design like Louis, however he's more into computer design. Both boys decided they would move to London together, live in an apartment thats been paid for in full by Noah's parents, (his graduation present) and pursue their new careers. Louis opting to pay rent to Noah as a condition of living together though. After a few harmless fights Noah decided he'd never win and gave in to Louis request.

"There he is, Come on Kid where's our hugs" Louis older brother Drew says as he comes up behind him and Noah.

Louis smiles and turns around hugging Drew excitedly.

"We are so proud of you kiddo" Drew says letting him go.

"Okay, my turn" Edward, says coming up to get his hug.

"Save the best for last huh" Scott says cheekily as he hugs Louis tightly. they all congratulate Noah and ruffle Louis hair proudly.

Louis has grown up as the youngest in his family, his parents died seven years ago when Louis was 14, in a car crash. Louis nearly lost his life too, but he survived and his brothers raised him for three years before he left for university.

Scott is the oldest, he's 31, a full time surgeon at Manchester private hospital, he's tall, muscly, intimidating and high class. With brown hair and grey eyes he looks like he'd break you in a second, he's cold towards most people but not with Louis or his brothers and especially not his wife. Scott is married to an amazing women Sammy and they live in Manchester, where Louis was raised.

Edward is 29, a top high profile Lawyer, he's still single but isn't looking to settle down. Edward is the fun one, always up for a good time and party. he's also tall, intimidating, has brown hair and brown eyes, he's extremely good looking and has girls falling at his feet.

Drew comes next at 27, he's a police officer and loves his job immensely, he has a steady girlfriend, Vanessa. The tall genes didn't skip Drew either, he's the blonde of the family though with grey eyes.

Louis is the youngest at 21, he has brown hair, blue eyes like his mum and has the most gorgeous cheek bones. He, unfortunately, didn't get the height gene and is short, skinny and just tiny in all sense of the word. he's gay and proud and Noah and the boys support him to the ends of the earth.

The boys all live within 15 minutes of each other and every Sunday they have a family dinner at Scott and Sammy's.

The boys are all wealthy and live extremely comfortably, Louis never asks for anything though and works part time at a coffee shop. The boys paid for his tuition but Louis wanted to make it himself, he turned down their offer of an apartment overlooking Manchester while he studied and opted for a dorm, he wanted to earn his own money and pay his way. Including paying the boys back weekly for his tuition.

Noah however, has extremely well off parents, more than Louis brothers incomes combined. Noah, unlike Louis, was forced to dorm to try and get some "normality" into his life, which is what his mother had told him. Noah likes to throw his money around, he likes lavish things and showing his wealth off. Louis prefers to live the simple life though, not caring about such things, he's had a bit of a tough time growing up and money doesn't mean so much to him.

"We're so proud of you Lou" Scott says as he lets Louis go.

"Thanks Scotty" Louis says smiling.

"Mum and Dad would have been so proud bud" Edward says

Louis smiles in response, he loved his parents so much and he knows they would be looking down on him smiling right now.

"Thanks" Louis says.

"Alright, I've got to get back to work kid I'm sorry, we will see you Sunday night for dinner?" Scott then says, his features are sympathetic towards Louis, knowing the boys are meant to stay for a while and mingle. The boys couldn't get much time off work though and Louis is just thankful they could come at all.

"Yeah, Sunday night" Louis nods.

"You boys celebrating tonight?" Drew asks knowingly.

"We may have a few parties to attend" Noah Smirks out.

"Be safe Louis, You know the rules" Edward says.

Louis nods his head in understanding. Ever since the accident his brothers have been extremely over protective, they tend to be quite annoying sometimes but Louis tolerates it, knowing how much his recovery took its toll on the family, knowing they stopped their lives to raise him for three years, knowing he owes them so much.

"Good boy" Scott says.

"Noah" Edward says matter of factly.

"Guys, I've got him, you know I'll look after him, I've never let anything happen to him before" Noah says smiling reassuringly.

The boys nod in response, relaxing a little.

"Call us, we are ten minutes away if you need us" Drew says.

Louis and Noah nod and they all share hugs goodbye.

Noah turns to Louis then.

"Alright, lets get my parents out of the way, then we can ditch these awful gowns and get ready for tonight" Noah says excitedly.

Louis giggles and they spend the next part of an hour mingling with Noah's parents and his two older sisters who adore Louis to pieces.

"So Louis, no boyfriend to report yet?" Noah's Sister Amy asks cheekily, she always hounds Louis about his love life, she always wants to set him up with one guy or another.

"Yeah Kiddo, Boys must be falling at your feet, you're a catch Lou" Noah's other sister Lucy says smiling.

Louis smiles back but rolls his eyes playfully. He's been with a guy or so but nothing serious, he's after love and a long term relationship and he found out quickly that most guys are only after one thing and they will say and do anything to get it.

"They ARE all falling at his feet, Louis just has standards, don't you Sweetums" Noah says smiling hugging Louis to his side.

"I do, and I haven't found the right person yet" Louis confirms.

"Well maybe things will change in London, when you start your new job" Lucy says.

"Hopefully, But then I'll probably be too busy for a relationship" Louis laughs.

They all smile and go back to talking about work and money, Louis tunes out a little, he's getting a little restless and his gown is so hot, he needs a drink of some sort.

"Im just going to get a drink of water" Louis tells Noah who nods, he excuses himself and makes his way through the mingling crowd.

This years Graduation was presented in the main hall but the after celebrations have been set up on the lawn under marquees. It's nice, but its a rare hot spring day and the sun is actually shining, the heat getting to Louis a little.

Louis reaches the bar thats setup under the marquees and asks the bar tender for a bottle of water, he gets a huge grin and a wink in response and then a cold bottle of water. Louis blushes and walks away insecurely, he is used to people ogling him but it never gets easy to deal with.

Louis guzzles the contents of the bottle before he throws it out and starts making his way back over towards the exit, he just needs some air. As he steps out of the marquee though he collides straight into a hard chest. he stumbles backwards, but before he hits the ground there is a hand on his waist and a sultry voice in his ear.

"Woah, easy there" The deep voice says, slightly scolding.

"Im so sorry, I wasn't watching where I was going" Louis rambles before he's looking at the very tall, extremely attractive man in a suit, who is still holding him tightly around the waist.

The gorgeous man smirks and Louis knows he's staring but he can't help it, this man is so handsome. His bright green eyes stare into Louis blue ones, Louis can't seem to talk, he's for some reason, taking in every ounce of detail of this man. His short hair styled perfectly into a quiff, little tuffs of curls sitting at the nape of his neck, his strong muscly physique holding him tightly, Louis can see the outline of a few tattoos on his chest, peeking out of his white dress shirt. he's dressed impeccably and Louis knows he comes from money.

Louis seems to get a spark shoot up his spine as the mans hands glide down his back, steading him and pulling him up straight, the mans eyes furrow in confusion, like he just felt the same weird thing.

"Its um...fine... just be careful next time" The man says sternly, still staring intently at Louis.

Louis nods and blushes under the intense gaze.

"Mr Styles?" A man Louis hadn't noticed before asks from behind the gorgeous god.

Mr Styles turns to the man, nods and looks back towards Louis intently.

"Are you okay?" He asks then, letting Louis go, Louis feels cold as the hands leave his body.

Louis is a little taken a back by the question and when he manages to make his lungs work and breathe properly, he answers.

"Yes, ugh, sorry... I'm fine" He replies awkwardly.

Mr Styles nods and begins to walk away, he has a look of confusion on his face though and looks back several times looking intently at Louis before he disappears into the crowd.

Louis shakes himself out of whatever that was, whatever that foreign feeling was, he feels light and fuzzy, he was definitely attracted to that man, which, Louis has never really been towards anyone before.

He begins to make his way back to Noah.

"There you are, I was worried" Noah says as he sees Louis approaching.

"Sorry, got caught up" Louis says.

Noah eyes him warily.

"You look funny, what happened" Noah asks.

"No Nothing, I'll explain later" Louis assures his friend.

"Okay, lets get out of here hey, I'm hot and bored " Noah says and Louis laughs.

They say goodbye to Noah's parents and leave to head back to their dorm, Louis feeling eyes on him the whole time.
