"...You and I are never going to go anywhere farther than this right here. You with a glass in front of you, me behind the bar. You're the customer, I'm the bartender... That's all this is." "Why are you doing this?" "Doing what?" "Hurting me." Louis hadn't expected that and he certainly hadn't expected Harry to cry, either. From the annoyance in Harry's eyes and his furrowed brows, he hadn't expected tears either but there they were. He stared at the lad crying, wishing he could help him understand and wishing he could understand himself. Before he could reach out to him, Harry was off the stool, the air around them tense. Louis Tomlinson is an English major who takes on a bartending job for extra cash. Harry Styles is an outgoing patron who makes his way to that very bar every night to drink away his troubles. What happens when the bubbly, dedicated drunk meets the sexy new bartender who is too detached to make conversation with most? Everyone's got their secrets but tipsy nights at the bar bring the two closer together than either ever expected. This book is ✨COMPLETED✨ PSA: This book is total, complete fiction. I'm not assuming anything about anybody's sexual orientation or relationships or genders, it's just smth I'm writing for fun, okie? Okie. Just needed to clarify that for the sake of my own sanity lmao
