Harry is a tattoo artist, Louis is a drama professor, and they meet during an argument at a café. -------------- "Um, sorry, but I believe that's actually mine," Harry said a bit awkwardly, pointing at the cup. The man huffed, slightly narrowing his blue eyes, "Nope, large Americano, dash of cream." He held the coffee up closer to Harry and honestly, Harry knew exactly what was in the cup because it was his coffee. "Right," Harry slowly drawled out as if he was talking to a toddler, "Which would make that mine." "Look, I really don't have time for this, I'm running late. And this," he said before he took a sip from the cup, "Is mine." Harry's jaw dropped and he held his hands out, failing them slightly, "Wha-you can't just drink it!" "Well I did, so, do you still want it or can I be on my way?" The man challenged. Harry shook his head disbelievingly, "Take it, but for the record, it says Harry on it." The man turned the cup around and a sharp laugh came out of his mouth, "Well, shit." He looked at Harry, a smile stretched across his face as crinkles formed next to his eyes. "Thanks, Harry."

This is not my book. It's by make_this_feel_like_home on ao3. I am just bringing it to Wattpad because it's so good! Louis Tomlinson is a train wreck. That is a way of putting it lightly. His whole world is a vast blur of darkness and bad decisions and it doesn't matter how many times he decides he's done, he always falls back in, because darkness is tricky like that for him. Louis wants for nothing-has everything he could ever ask for really, but it's all nothing. Maybe he needs to be rescued-maybe he can't be rescued. No one knows. Or the one where Louis is a spoiled rich kid who is ignored by his entire family, who's friends only use him as a means for drugs and no one believes he's worth any more than just that. Harry Styles is a first year university student who's just moved to Doncaster for their theatre program who just happens to get the short straw when he's partnered with Louis for Bio Lab.

"Harry, the whole world is in front of you." The younger boy nodded, then let his forehead lean to Louis'. "Yeah, you're right," he whispered. "It is in front of me." ••• Before Harry started university, he created a pretty simple list in his mind: the list of things which could help him survive his first year. Focus on your art studies. Avoid parties. Try to stay out of every drama. At first the plan went quite smooth, but as soon as the first wave of relief sweeped over him, a footballer had to show up and not just cross everything on his list, but also rip it all to shreds and burn up his entire world. Ignoring him wasn't an option; the boy with the cheeky smile looked too familiar to forget. Harry knew one thing for sure: there wasn't a rule he wouldn't break to get the answers for the questions of the past. Even if that meant he had to face with a beautiful mess, called Louis Tomlinson. ••• • completed story • (And the chapters are long af) (It's starting to get quite good from chapter 5, okay) (Please give it a chance lol) (Thank you, love you) WARNING: the story contains swearing, detailed (!!) smut and mentions of homophobia and self-harm, BUT I can reassure you, ((kinda spoiler I guess)) the story will have a happy ending for sure! 2021: #1 toplinson, out of 108 stories #53 larryfluff, out of 718 stories 2022: #1 larrysmut, out of 1,12K stories (crying tf is this achievement, help) #1 toplinson (again, help this is supposed to be a cute story) 2024: #2 louistomlinson, out of 77,9K stories <3333
