Covering his eyes with his left hand, Harry sighs, interrupting his mom. "Fine, I'll bring him over. But I'm not promising anything because he has a family too and he might want to be with them." "Try your best, okay honey?" Anne chirps. "Then give me a call as soon as you know. Love you, sweetie. Good luck with exams." "Love you," Harry replies numbly, before whispering a low "Fuck" once the line is dead. Wonderful, truly wonderful. How is he going to find a boyfriend in two fucking weeks? This is karma, actual karma for lying about a boyfriend that doesn't exist. He learns about the inner workings of the human mind all day and then he goes and pulls this kinda shit himself.

Enter Zayn with his dreamy eyes and a supernatural affinity to get families (including Harry's) to love him.

"It's okay." Zayn assures him. "Half the uni thinks we're dating anyways. But you also can't go on saying stuff like that, confirming things, when they don't even exist between us." And Harry can't help but let it slip, "I think there's a lot of things that exist between us." A ZARRY BEST FRIENDS AU

"I find it hard to find someone like you." Copyright © 2020 Brozarry

A childhood where Zayn made a promise to Harry and it's becoming increasingly more difficult to keep that promise.

"Harry wishes things were different. He never wanted things to change between them. In fact, before any of this even happened, the thought had never dared cross his mind, but either way, he guesses they had to, because no one could ever, under any circumstances, find out about his feelings. That would thoroughly ruin everything. Someone would end up being hurt. Someone had to, and Harry, being the nice guy he likes to think he is, couldn't have that, now could he?" * or, the one where Harry is an idiot in love with his best friend's boyfriend Zayn, and I reference way too many One Direction songs - Warning: Story contains mature language and minimal sexual imagery. Disclaimer: I don't know or own any of the (ex) members of One Direction or any of the songs referenced in this book, however, the plot is all MINE, so I'd love it if you'd be so kind and respect that :)) [lowercase intended] started: June 29, 2019 completed: April 30, 2020

"What does that mean, I'm a 'Friday'?" "I look forward to seeing you. I never used to before, but now I can't wait until you come around... like a Friday." Zayn immediately takes a liking to Harry upon meeting him and wants to be with him - however many people are opposed to the idea, himself included.

Zayn Malik was always different compared to the other children as he grew up. He was never understood, and in turn never understood the others, so he lived in his dream world of doodles, colours and drawings. He finally reaches out to the tall, curly haired Harry Styles, but how will the popular Harry react to the quiet boy who everyone thought was mute? Zayn has so many more problems then Harry could ever understand, but how can Harry try to help the brown-eyed boy, when he barely speaks a word? [A Zarry Stylik Fanfiction that contains triggers of abuse and bullying.]

Jesse was a fucking idiot for saying all the right words that have been haunting Harry for the past few days. Right after Zayn Malik smiled at him and made him feel so special, he let it all go. "Zayn." Harry whispers onto his lips. He's done. They're done. "I love you." Or, where Harry Styles was a confused teenager with no idea what he wanted and Zayn Malik just happened to be the one thing so unreachable, that he held onto. All rights reserved @ZarryNouisOTP
