[Complete] Louis and Harry were never supposed to end up like this-strangers with history, exes in the same industry, ghosts in each other's orbit. Back when One Direction was still together, they had something real. Something messy, complicated, but real. Then the band fell apart. And so did they. Now, years later, Harry's solo career is thriving, and Louis has built a life of his own. They haven't spoken, haven't seen each other, haven't acknowledged the weight of what they left behind. But when Harry brings his tour to Los Angeles-the city Louis now calls home-old wounds start to reopen. Louis never planned to go to Harry's concert. He's spent years avoiding him, pretending they're just two people who used to know each other. But when Niall pushes him to show up, he starts to wonder: is it really over, or were they just unfinished?

The year is 2018, two years after One Direction went on hiatus, and also two years after Louis and Harry went their separate ways. Truth be told, they went their separate ways already a few months before that. They just pretended they were still on good terms so their fans wouldn't get suspicious. What happened between the two is something neither of them wants to talk about, and they haven't spoken a word to each other since the day the band went on hiatus. Now, two years later, Louis has just accepted the offer of being a judge in The X Factor. What he doesn't expect, though, is that he isn't the only one out of the members of One Direction who has accepted the offer. Harry has too. What will happen when the two have to spend time together after two years of not talking to each other? And what if one of the other judges is someone Louis has always been jealous of considering his close friendship with Harry? © 2021 Pauline (Larrys_Girl), All Rights Reserved.
