I was captivated, but he was all too good at his profession: Harry Styles, Playboy. © wrenadler, All Rights Reserved. (Larry with some Ziam)

Three years after Harry Styles won the X Factor competition, he finally comes home and faces all that he left behind, including his bitter ex-boyfriend. [Or an au where Louis is still in love with Harry, but he likes to convince himself and everyone else that he's not.] [UPDATED AS OF 2024]

Louis, an upper year Residence Advisor and sexy loudmouth aspiring journalist, pulls along quirky and anxious first year student Harry, determined to help him get the most out of college. The younger boy quickly learns that college isn't just about bad roommates and boring professors, but a place for getting hopelessly lost trying to take a shortcut in the dead of night, getting pulled up onstage in a coffeehouse, getting a bit tipsy and making bad decisions, and maybe even falling for someone entirely off limits. **Trigger Warning: Anxiety/Panic Attacks** *I really appreciate all the lovely messages, but I am not currently looking to translate any of my stories*

[Completed] - Louis caught his boyfriend of five years cheating so he kicked him out, realizing only after that owning a big house and living with yourself and a very adorable dog is not enough. It's also damn expensive so he goes online and post on one of the most credible site known to man, Craigslist, to look for housemates. Enter the crew consisting of a very odd irish programmer, a handsome preschool teacher, a stripper gentleman and a sex therapist in glittery suits. [Readers Review] "i really really love the story, i can' t even count how many times i read it it's amazing, please write more" - charinatala "The characters in this story are so much more realistic than a lot of other books.

(Completed) ''You've got a big mouth on you, princess. Why don't you put it to good use? Tomorrow night at my place?'' Harry gaped at Louis and clenched his fists. ''I'd rather not have you fuck me and then dump me like a cheap whore, thank you very much.'' He spat before walking away again. ''Princess?'' Louis called after the boy. ''What!'' Harry snapped. ''You forgot to close your locker.'' Harry rushed back with red cheeks and his bottom lip between his teeth as Louis leaned against the locker next to his and stared at his bottom half without any shame. ''How rude.'' He whispered under his breath before he scoffed and quickly scurried away. Louis' smirk fell and he growled. He will fuck Harry. And when he does, he'll show him who's boss and who's not. Or in which Louis is a player and Harry is a feminine boy's still a virgin and Louis will so anything to take that from him.

Louis's life was supposed to be perfect. He was engaged, happy, and recently scored his dream job as an art professor at a university. So then, why can't he stop thinking about the mysterious mute student in his class?

One Direction, an obscure indie rock band, is about to embark on their first cross-country tour, living out of Louis' beloved van named Patricia. Harry is in love, and Louis is oblivious. Or is he? Featuring skinny-dipping in Texas waterfalls, getting lost in the desert, stargazing under the New Mexico sky, performing in front of crowds that grow in size each night, and falling in love on the road during the greatest summer of their lives.

Louis' new roommate is shy, skittish, and flinches at the slightest sounds. He's an art major who gets drunk on cherry wine, wears lacy lingerie, and shows up late at night covered in bruises that blossom across his skin like flowers. Obviously something is wrong. Louis just doesn't know what it is.

Harry is gay. Louis is straight and has a girlfriend. Well. At least that's what Harry thought, until Liam blabs his mouth about Harry's sex life and mentions that Louis is, in fact, bi. And after a strange turn of events, Harry finds himself intimately attached to Louis during a one night stand he hadn't anticipated. After that, everything changes. *cough* smut *cough* ----- Chapters will probably go private after publishing (which is the norm for my books) so you will probably need to follow. (Also, I do this thing where I just throw all my chapters out at once. I've just had my first child, so I've been writing this whenever I can, and I'd rather publish it all at once rather than leave people waiting for chapters that could've taken months to be written.)

The instructions were simple: seduce and destroy Harry Styles. Not once did they discuss the option of Louis actually falling in love. So, naturally, that's exactly what he did. // THIS IS NOT MY WORK !!! I AM ONLY DOING THIS BECAUSE I WANTED SHORTER CHAPTERS FOR MYSELF This story belongs to Velvetoscar on AO3
