Chapter One -Another Day in the Misery Business *Edited Again 3/27/21*

                   ***Harry's P.O.V***

       Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!
"Fuck," I groan as I smack the alarm clock off of my night stand. If I keep this up, I'll probably need to buy a new one by next week.

I know that I should treat my things better, but I got almost no sleep last night and then I have to wake up to that annoying ass alarm clock going off?! Yeah, I know I'm a bit cranky but can you blame me? I wake up everyday feeling like shit, and I have to keep a smile on my face. I slowly get out of bed and make my way to my bathroom to brush my teeth and take a shower.

As I'm brushing my teeth, I can't help but look at the huge bags under my eyes so I make sure to finish up quickly. I adjust the temperature for my shower until it's perfect and get in....did I forget to mention that I sleep naked? Oh well, anyway, I grab my Axe body wash and spray - along with my Old Spice shampoo and conditioner, naturally - before starting to shampoo my hair.

Fifteen minutes later, I was out of the shower and styling my hair up into a quiff. I went into my room to pick out an outfit for the signing today, and decided on a pair of black skinny-fit jeans, a red V-neck shirt, a navy blue blazer, and a pair of white converse to tie it all together.

I make my way down the stairs to see Louis already awake and eating a bowl of cereal. He was wearing a pair of red chinos, a white Union Jack tee, and a pair of navy TOMS.

'Man he looks fit today,' I thought to myself.

Wait...what? I did not just say that about my best mate...what in the blue blazes is wrong with me?

"Like what you see?" Louis smirked at me cheekily.

"Yeah I do," I said back with a goofy grin.

Louis rolled his eyes and stuck his tongue out at me,  continuing to eat his cereal. I walked over to the fridge and got out some orange juice, bacon, and eggs. I walked over to the stove, set it on high and cracked two eggs in a pan. As I waited for the eggs to cook I poured myself a cup of orange juice. When the eggs were done frying, I plated them - like the amazing chef I am - before putting two slices of bacon in the pan to cook.

Moments later, the bacon was done and I was sitting on a stool at the kitchen island next to Lou. We happily munched away at our food in silence for a few moments before Lou got up and went to the sink to wash out his cereal bowl.

"What time do we have to be at the signing?" I questioned Louis.

"Li told me 09:30, so we have about 30 minutes to get there."

I finished my eggs and moved on to my bacon. I was just about done when my phone beeped. I looked at my phone and saw that it was a message from Niall.

Baby Nandos: "The signing has been set back an hour ! Tell Lou . - Ni"

"Hey Lou it looks like we have half an hour to kill before we go to the signing" I grinned out.

"Since when? I thought it started at 09:30." Lou shot back, raising an eyebrow in suspicion.

'Does he really think that I'm playing a prank on him or something right now? Sheesh, it was one time. Seriously, let it go, BooBear.'

"Nialler just sent me a text saying that it was moved back an hour." I said, moving closer to show him the text on my phone screen.

"Oh, well in that case, what do you want to do? It wouldn't hurt to get out of the flat a bit earlier," Louis breathed, his body visibly relaxing.

'I must've really gotten to him if he's this on edge.'

Now finished with my meal, I get up and walk to the sink to wash my plate and cup.
