The next morning Harry and Scott have breakfast made for Louis before he even gets up, he exits his room dressed for work to find Harry and Scott shirtless, eating breakfast and drinking coffee. The sight leaves Louis breathless, he could definitely get used to waking up to Harry and Scott every morning.

"Morning" Louis blushes.

"Morning baby, we made you breakfast, come eat" Scott tells him as he kisses Louis on the head.

"You didn't have do that, thank you" Louis says as he sits down to a coffee and French toast.

Harry and Scott smile, just happy Louis is even eating.

"Are you sure you're okay to head to work today?" Harry asks

"Yeah I'm ok" Louis tells them.

Harry and Scott know they aren't in an official relationship yet and they know they can't exactly tell Louis what to do, but they wish they could tell him to stay home and rest.

"We can drop you off at work on our way home" Scott tells him.

"Oh, I don't mind walking" Louis says.

"We know, but we want to drive you" Harry says.

Louis blushes once again in thanks.

They all eat their breakfast, Louis not eating much, but it's more than he usually does so the boys are happy.

"So Noah called this morning and was wondering if you had a lunch break today?" Harry says as they get in the car and Harry pulls out onto the road.

"Oh? I do, I have an hour break from 12-1, I usually don't go anywhere though" Louis tells them.

"He was hoping you could meet him at Cafe Knox, it's only a five minute walk from your office" Scott says.

"Sure, I can meet him. Is he trying to convince me to take the job offer?" Louis asks humoured.

"Probably, but he also really likes you and wanted to see if you'd be open to lunch, he said you had a lot of things in common and he liked talking to you" Harry says.

"Oh, that's nice, I liked him too, I can meet him" Louis says.

Louis is a little bit floored that Noah reached out, he doesn't have many friends and for someone to search him out and ask to meet up, is really nice.

"Great, we will let him know you will be there at 12" Scott says, and Louis smiles in response.

It's silent for a while before Harry is breaking the ice and talking about the Elephant in the room.

"Are you okay with everything that happened last night Lou" Harry asks.

Louis looks at Harry in the rear view mirror.

"Ahh yeah, are you.....are you not?" Louis asks shyly.

"No, Lou, we definitely are, we just, you left last time and we were just worried you may have felt pressured or something" Harry says.

"No, I didn't feel pressured, I really like spending time with you and I.....liked it, I just, I have a lot going on and I'm a little all over the place if I'm honest, I just need you to understand that,  I'm not the best at this and I don't want you being disappointed I guess" Louis says. 

"Louis, we don't expect anything from you other than your honesty, we love spending time with you and we aren't going to lie or hide the fact that we want more with you. We are willing to go at your pace though and we want you to feel comfortable" Scott tells him gently.

"We understand that the night in Holmes Chapel was overwhelming for you, we know how much of you you gave to us and how much trust you put into us, but just know, we haven't told a soul and we don't want you thinking that we think any less of you. Nothing you told us changed our minds. We want you, we want much more with you and we would love to start seeing you more often" Harry tells him.

Louis smiles slightly, he can't believe he's even contemplating this, he normally wouldn't allow himself this sort of happiness but something inside him is niggling at him to give Harry and Scott a chance.

"I don't feel like I deserve you both and that's going to take some time for me to accept but, I would really like to see you both again too, just no pressure on you, like if you've had enough I completely get it, it's a lot, I'm a-lot and I won't blame you or hold it against you for wanting out" Louis says.

"We are going to enjoy showing you just how worth it you are Louis, and that you deserve the world. For now though, let's start with dinner on Friday at our place, Harry has been wanting to cook for you and has the perfect meal in mind" Scott tells him smiling.

Louis smiles shyly.

"Okay, Friday sounds good" Louis says as they pull up outside his work.

"Great, we can't wait" Harry says.

"Also, just, you have our numbers. If you need anything Louis, anything at all. Please call us, no matter what it is, or what time it is, just call us and we will answer" Scott tells him.

Louis nods in thanks, extremely grateful for Harry and Scott caring about him so much.

"Thank you" he says as he opens the door.

Harry rolls his window down as Louis shuts his door.

"Have a great day" the tells him.

"You too and thanks for the lift" Louis says.

Harry winks and Louis blushes as he turns around to walk inside and Harry and Scott drive off.

Louis sees Jax standing in the lobby watching him as he walks in, Louis shivers at the smirk on his face and Louis knows whatever he's thinking or scheming isn't going to go down well for him.

By the time Louis makes it to Dan's office for his check in, it's 8:05am

"You're late" Dan spits.

"Sorry, I was putting my stuff away" Louis tells him.

"I'm pretty sure you were fraternising with the enemy actually" Jax says as he then enters the office and closes the door behind him.

Louis looks at Jax confused.

"I just saw Louis getting out of a very expensive car, with none other than Harry Styles and Scott Wolf" Jax tells Dan, like Louis isn't even there.

Dan looks at Louis and if he isn't mistaken, Louis sees a slight scared look before he masks it and Louis can tell he is about to lose his shit.

"Is that so Louis?" Dan asks.

"We're friends" Louis says.

Jax scoffs causing both Louis and Dan to look at him.

"You're sleeping with them" Dan says then, it's not a question it's a statement.

"That's none of your business" Louis says offended.

"They are using you, who the hell would sleep with you, they must want something in return" Jax says disgusted.

"They would be pissed off that we won the tender and trying to find out our designs from the inside" Dan says.

They are speaking like Louis isn't even there and Louis is actually about to laugh at how stupid they sound.

"They actually couldn't care less that you won the tender" Louis says before he can stop himself.

They both turn to look at Louis then, Louis knows he's going to get ripped for that comment.

"Is that so" Dan says smirking.

"They would be shitting themselves, this client is worth millions and we won it, the first of many and they won't be shit in this industry anymore" Jax says.

"They obviously don't tell you much, this was a big deal and HS & Wolf are going broke, we're ruining them step by step and it's going to be amazing" Dan says smiling evilly.

"Why do you hate them so much, did they turn down your job application or something? Tell you you can't design?" Louis asks.

That seems to have hit a sore spot and before Louis knows it, he's up against the wall with Dan's fist in his face. Louis is used to it now and hardly reacts to the punch.

"What did you just say to me?" Dan asks angrily

Louis doesn't respond, he won't poke the bear any further.

"You listen here and you listen good. Whatever you have going with those two, it's fake, they are using you, they are trying to destroy me and this company and they are using you to do it. You even think about leaving, or supplying information to them, you will regret it so badly Louis. I will make your life hell and legally I'll sue you for defamation and spying, that's  a federal offence and you will go down. You're nothing, you understand" Dan says.

He and Jax then deliver their daily abuse and Louis leaves the office with a few new bruises and his rib aching like crazy even more.

He tries to get on with his day and hopes lunch comes soon so he can have a break and get away for a while.
