In The Haze Of Summer - One Shot - Larry Stylinson

Louis, Louis was summer. He had sun kissed skin, made from the Gods themselves. Brown, almost golden feathery hair, and when his hands made contact with somebody they felt like the softest summer breeze. Louis was summer with teeth white as the sun and his smile made people in Puma daze off. The only thing that confused people was that Louis' eyes were icy blue. Not a clear sky in June but blue as the ice in the coldest month.

Louis had been twenty when he got chosen to be summer, it scared him at that time, not waking up in his shitty flat but instead finding himself in a hidden city called Puma. He was told that the stars and the moon picked him to be summer, a job no human could ever imagine even exist. Only he wasn't human, at least not anymore.

You see, when the last summer takes his last breath a new one need to take his place. The stars and the moon search for a person with a humble heart.

Louis woke up and was told he was responsible for making summer happen. All the people in Puma made something on earth happen. Louis made friends quickly. First Liam, he was autumn with his eyes as brown as the leafs fallen from a tree, as brown as the mud on a child's boot. He met Liam when the other seasons told him what he had to do. The last summer, Travis, died of old age and the moon apparently had his eyes on Louis. As summer Louis had to make the sun shine and make the water warm. He had to give people the spirit to go outside and bath in the sun, go swimming and be with their families.

When Liam went to earth Louis met Zayn and Niall. Niall was Valentine, at first Louis didn't understand. It was valentine once a year so what did Niall do the rest of the year but Niall told him he made humans fall in love. He brought people together in their darkest and brightest hours and he always wore a smile plastered on his face. Zayn was Christmas, not like Santa Clause, he hated being called that. There was no fat man in red planting presents under the Christmas tree but he did give the whole world spirit. Zayn's hair as black as a night in December and eyes like chocolate.

Louis loved travelling back to earth just before summer started, he loved seeing the flowers that were in full bloom and the fishes jumping in the streams. Seeing everything green was what he loved the most. He loved the feeling of grass between his fingers, loved it's smell when it was freshly cut. He loved seeing a flower open up before his eyes. He loved how summer just screamed life.

Louis was twenty two, almost twenty three when he first met Harry. Harry was winter, with skin as white as a layer of snow on the street, rosy cheeks, just like Louis used to get when he waited for the buss early in the morning before classes when he still was a human. It seemed like such a long time ago. Harry had plump pink lips and dark brown curly hair that made people at Puma faint. When Louis first met Harry he sat down, talking about how he missed Liam with Niall. As he stood up he had to tilt his head so he could look the new winter in his eye. That made the breath hitch in Louis' throat. Harry's eyes were green, like a forrest on a sunny day, like the grass that tickled Louis' naked feet.

In that moment he fell in love. Summer with icy eyes fell with winter with grass eyes. The were the opposite but their eyes represented the other one. In that moment Louis gave his soul to winter. He didn't even know his name yet but he knew they belonged together.

Harry stood speechless, taking in the petite boy. He didn't know what he was meant do in this paradise but he did know he was going to be with the boy with glowing skin. Niall who could smell love from miles away sucked up the luminous feeling.
