*Claire's POV*
"Are you sure this is a good idea." Harry says carrying the last of the few boxes that I have "Like what if this guy is a serial killer or something"
"Harry it's fine they do a wide background check and the guy is 20 what's the worst he could have done?" I ask
"Killed his past girlfriend" he says
"Well then it's a good thing I'm not dating him" I say
"Yeah but you are going to be sleeping with him" Nikki says giggling moving into Harry's side "babe why do you not show so much concern for me when I moved in with a guy?"
"Because you moved in with me" Harry smiles
"Oh right" Nikki says giggling as Harry drapes an arm over her shoulder
"Well as much as I love you guys third wheeling me I would like to start unpacking before he gets here"
"See you don't even know his name" Harry says
"Haz it's Liam"
"Fine but you will call me if he is a creep okay?" Harry says pulling me into a group hug with Nikki
"I promise" I say starting to push them out the door "now go" I say shutting the door
I walk into the other room with a bed in it dragging one box with the words clothes written on it in Nikki's hand righting I start unpacking in one of the drawer sets against the wall with the door and hang some of my nicer clothes up in the closet. I don't know if I could have done this if the fully appliance apartment didn't come with it. I walked back into the living room area to start unpacking another box, when I see a persons legs but the rest is covered in two boxes I walk over taking one of them "Need some help" I ask pulling one of them putting it on the ground
"Um yeah thanks" the brown eyed guy said staring at me
"Liam where do you want these?" a blonde haired boy with a think Irish accent asks
"Um anywhere is fine I guess mate" he says finally blinking slightly turning his head in the direction of his friend
"Say something to her mate" he says before walking out the door again
"So you must be Claire ?" He asks
I nod "And your Liam" I smile
"That's me" Liam says sliding his hands in his pockets
"Um the bed room is thought that door I already unpacked on the left side I hope that's okay" I say pointing
"Um, yeah I sleep on the right anyways"he says picking up a couple boxes and walking into the bedroom I turn to watch him walk off
"You know if you want you can drop this place and live with me" an unfamiliar voice says from behind as I turn back around "Louis by the way" he says
"Claire" I says smiling the blond stands behind him
"And I'm Niall" he say laying down the last box before taking my hand and shaking it
"Nice to meet you guys" I say politely
"I'm sure you would rather not meet them"
Liam says coming from behind me "I just got stuck with them"
"Well that's everything we will see you around Payno...and I guess that means we will be seeing you too Claire" Louis says smiling
"Guess so" I smile back as they walk out the door
"Sorry I hope they weren't rude they really are nice just not good with girls they don't know" Liam say turning to me after shutting the door
"It's fine they seem harmless" I smile
"They really are" he says "so I got most of my stuff for the bedroom unpacked how about we order a pizza and unpack in here?"
"Sounds great"
"You like pineapple on your pizza cuz I do?"
"I love pineapple on my pizza" I say looking up from a box
"Great" he says pulling out his phone
*3 hours later*
"Why did we wait till the afternoon to move?" Liam asks looking out the window at the now dark sky
"Because doing it in the morning would have been to easy" I laugh
"What is in this one?" He asks pointing to the last box
"Oh that's my equipment"
"Equipment?" Liam asks gulping
I laugh walking over to the him bending down to the box "yeah" I start to open the box "photography equipment"
"Oh good" he sighs "So I'm living with a photographer, not gonna wake up with a camera in my face am I?"
"You might but don't worry you won't know I took them, I take candid photos"
"Oh"
"I won't take them of you sleeping till I get to know you better " I say making him laugh
"Speaking of sleeping" Liam starts nervously biting his lip "How do you want this to work I know we have to right down everything in our weekly journals but I mean I can lie and say I slept in the bed but sleep on the couch if you..."
"You don't want to sleep with me"
"Of course I do...I mean no...yes...shit"
"You want to sleep in the same bed as me"
"Yes" Liam says with an embarrassed chuckle
"Well I signed up to go all in on this experiment so I'm not saying we have to cuddle but I think we should fallow all the rules you know"
"Right well it's getting late do you want to..." Liam ask
"Yeah" I say walking to the bedroom with him
