{THIS IS A LARRY STYLINSON STORY.} The boys of Natalis Academy are boys of stern beliefs. For one-you're better off doing what your folks plan for you. And two, you can't possibly be a friend of theirs and be a homosexual. Harry Styles is a longtime friend of 4 boys under the names; Louis Tomlinson, Liam Payne, Zayn Malik, and Niall Horan. It was 1996, Maine, United States, when Harry noticed his growing infatuation for his best mate, Louis. But dare he ignite the fuse-he may lose his friends, he may be kicked out of Natalis. He could be maimed - *slaughtered* by his very own confidants.

{COMPLETED} < Under Construction Set in 1985, where the nights hum with neon and every heartbreak plays on cassette. Niall Horan isn't anyone special. At least not in a town like Avalon Heights-a place where quarterbacks get the girls and garage bands get noise complaints. He's got a secondhand guitar, a band that can barely hold a tune, and dreams bigger than the dingy diner he works at. And then there's Lila Bloom, or as the whole school calls her-Birdie. Beautiful. Untouchable. The kind of girl you write songs about but never dare to sing them to. She's already spoken for, wrapped up in the letterman jacket of Jason Colby, the town's golden boy with a smirk that hides how often he cheats and lies. It should've been simple-admire from afar, stay in your lane. But then Niall finds her on the side of the road one rainy Friday night, eyeliner smudged, mascara streaking, and the truth unraveling in her tears. And that's the moment everything changes. "Mark my words," Niall whispers, knuckles white around his guitar case. "Lila Bloom will be mine." High school halls, mixtape confessions, moonlit mistakes, and a love that defies the social script. This is Avalon Heights. And nothing will ever be the same again.

Suddenly, Something interrupts our conversation. Someone. Calling our names. "Zaria! Emily!" I stop walking abruptly, turning to Zaria, who's clearly just as confused as I am. We turn around to see two security guards yelling our names. Why the hell would they be calling for us? Did something happen? Did we do something? "Hello ladies." I hear one of them say as they approach us. I watch them look Asher over, almost questioning his presence with us. "And Sir." The other adds. "We have orders to bring you two.. Three.. Backstage with us." Backstage? "What- Why?" Zaria says before I can say anything else. "Orders from the band." The band? The band. I look at Zaria as the realization hits us both. "Zar! Em!" I hear a strong British accent say. Zaria sighs before saying, "Hi Louis." "Hi Love!" He says walking over to us. I watch as he tries to lean in and.. Kiss? Zaria? God, maybe more happened at the club than I thought. "Niall!" I say as I spot the Irishman walking over behind Louis. "And you are?" He says, nodding towards Asher. "Her boyfriend." Asher says while putting an overly protective arm around Zar's shoulders. "Oh! Boyfriend?" Louis asks, frankly looking almost worried at her words. "Boyfriend." Zaria says with a small hint of disappointment in her voice. /// Zaria Westbrook, The "Bad" girl. Probably at a party. Always Smoking. And for some reason her best friend is Emily Bennett. Known for being the "Nice Girl." Complete opposite of Zaria. But they just.. Work. One night they meet two of the biggest faces in music, Two of the members of Midnight Drift.
