Timeless - A Larry Stylinson FanFiction

1918; a year that brought peace to nations in the conclusion of the first World War, and solace to the families of those fighting the battle. Thick train tracks wound tightly through the mountains of Huntingdon, England in the county of Cambridgeshire, brought strong men back home with the wind in their hair and war in their eyes. They were brought back to families, to loving wives and children, to aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents alike, but there was one who had no such person to return to. Louis Tomlinson, at the age of 18, was drafted against his will to join the war years prior, leaving his large family behind and expecting them to be there upon his return. A letter from the town of his origin was presented to him one frigid night on duty and his hopes came crashing down, a voice in the back of his mind constantly reminding him of their having been taken away.

Harry Styles, a young boy of only 16, coming from a wealthy family, was blind to the hardships that those less fortunate were forced to muddle through. Waiting for his cousin at the train station for hours on end it was hard for Harry to keep from wandering off, and stumbling upon a small swallow pin at his feet he felt it rude to not run to catch up with the lone soldier who had dropped it. Upon meeting up with the stranger, Harry suddenly became nervous in such a lad’s presence, looking into eyes that certainly redefined every shade of ocean blue he’d ever seen, it was music to his ears when he was told to keep the pin to himself.

As Christmas comes and goes, it seems that it is only coincidence that Louis and Harry continue to see each other around town, and suddenly a longing for the other manifests itself in the souls of each young boy. There must be a reason they keep stumbling upon one another, isn’t there? Through secret meetings, dinner dates, house visits, and daily trips to the market square, the couple faces a problem that has never occurred to either before now. Could they have feelings for each other? Feelings that lied beyond a friendly fellowship? In times like these, not many have ever given a second thought to a man falling in love with one of his own gender, but was it possible? Redefining the laws of time, Louis and Harry fight against all odds to prove that what they have is not wrong, and should never have been thought as such. Being sent back to war for the second time was against Louis’ choosing, and it wasn’t written in Harry’s journal to be married off to a woman he knows so little about. “Love is a force more formidable than any other. It is invisible - it cannot be seen or measured, yet it is powerful enough to transform you in a moment, and offer you more joy than any material possession could,” (Barbara de Angelis). So why is everyone trying to tear it apart? Redefining all these things through hand scribed letters from far off lands and notes produced by an expensive typewriter, Louis and Harry are proving that love is, in fact, timeless.
