that's showbiz, baby!

by: eulogiseme | 97k | NOW COMPLETE

Thirty two year old, war veteran, Louis has been employed by the influential Edgar Styles to be a personal bodyguard for his son, upcoming popstar, Harry Styles. Chosen for his skill, intellect and dedication, Louis is more than prepared for his new job. But when he arrives, he learns that his duty is much bigger. The omega is being stalked and they want him to have an alpha by his side at all times, one who can play pretend for the cameras, but behind the scenes keep his eyes peeled for an intruder.

What they want is a fake relationship with Harry and Louis at the centre of it, to lure out the stalker.

He tells himself it'll be fine. He's been in all sorts of jobs that have required more from him. It won't be that hard.

“Yesterday was a mistake,” he clarifies. “Yes, Dr Tomlinson,” Harry agrees, but his tone implies the opposite.

Louis takes a third-grade teaching job in Clover Hill as a favor, mostly because he has nowhere else to go. He lost his job as a sous-chef, and everything else in Chicago fell apart. This Hallmark-channel town feels more like punishment than a fresh start. Louis prepares for the worst ten months of his life.

Until Harry, the art teacher who ribbon laces his sneakers and paints rainbow fences, makes it really easy to get distracted.

When Louis shut his front door behind him and turned the corner he was stunned to find a boy standing naked in the middle of his lounge. His hair was curly and longer than his shoulders, his eyes wide and wet, brimming with tears but a piercing green. He was standing somewhat without shame, like he didn’t know he was bare, and he was fully locked in on Louis. Before Louis could do anything he watched him positively crumple, almost comic if it weren’t so devastating, the way his limbs folded in on one another like they were nothing more than soft, rippling fabric. Louis looked down for a few moments, completely puzzled, before eyeing a faint red mark around the top of his thigh. It was scar tissue, jagged, but long healed over. It was at that moment Louis knew. He stepped away without another word.

People think of periods in their lives in different ways. Some view them as whole years, with smaller sub periods within them. Some take the “era” approach, times where they were a certain way for a time. Some even use major life events as check points, from graduation to marriage to having kids.  Harry thinks of his life in three chapters: before Louis, during Louis, and after Louis.

harry had it all. a successful solo career, amazing friends, a wonderful partner. when his partner of 10 years breaks up with him out of the blue, he convinces himself it was mutual to cope. when he realizes that he’s still in love and the breakup was never mutual, he does what he should’ve done before: fight to be with louis.

“Hello?”

It's tentative, the voice. Louis keeps his eyes firmly closed. This isn't real, he tells himself. This isn't happening. He’d been so careful.

Zayn was going to kill him. Fuck. He’d known better than to go out for a supply run on his own. But Susie had been sick and he hadn’t wanted to take Mike with him when he was so worried about his little sister. She was only eleven years old, it wasn’t like she could stay on her own.

He knows the rules. He knows that agreement that he’s made with Zayn. If I ever come back different-

He scrunches his eyes shut even tighter, as though that can keep the horrible truth at bay. He doesn’t have to be different, he tells himself. He can just ignore-

“Hello?”

Shut up, he thinks. This isn’t real. You’re not real. This isn’t happening.

“I’m sorry you feel that way,” the voice in his head whispers.

“Don’t you want to ask me?”

Harry frowns. “Ask you what?”

Louis presses his lips into a line. “Don’t you want to ask me if I killed her?”

Harry narrows his eyes. “To be frank with you Louis, I don’t really have time for that. And even if I did, I don’t really care.”

Louis’ brows raise in shock, but he seems to mask it quickly enough. “You’re planning to defend me in court and you don’t even want to know if I’m guilty of a heinous crime?” Louis sounds genuinely curious.

(Or the one where human lawyer Harry Styles is defending Louis Tomlinson, a witch accused of using black magic to kill another witch. Louis most definitely uses black magic, but Harry believes him when he says he didn’t kill anyone. Can they prove Louis’ innocence before the real killer gets to them first?)
