"one day you fall for this boy, and he touches you with his fingers.And he burns holes in your skin with his mouth.And it hurts when you look at him, and it hurts when you don't.

Living in a rich society for all her life, her passion for literature and 1960's/70's rock has never been recognized. But when Marine's supercilious brother, Louis, decides to come home for the summer from Columbia University, she unexpectedly meets Harry, what seems to be another stuck up friend of Louis, but ends up having more things in common with her than she thought. The only problem is, this curly haired boy with sparrows inked on his chest is 19, and somehow, the universe is able to get in the way of an inconspicuous connection.But two sparrows never sing the same song, will they? Go to author's note for more info! our twitter: @sssparrowsstory DISCLAIMER: we know that Harry's real tattoo's are two swallows but for this fanfiction we are imagining they are two Sparrows since they both have very similar meanings. Also we thought Sparrows sounded way cooler tbh aha.

"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 <3333Complete
Deceptive {H.S}
"Why do you care?" he asks. But it's not soft. It's sharp, defensive, like he's already bracing for the answer. I want to tell him the truth. Because you saved me. Because you're the only one who makes me feel real. Because if you fall apart, I don't know what happens to the rest of us. Instead, I just say, "Maybe I want to understand." He scoffs, no humor in it. "You don't. Trust me." Silence stretches between us. Then he steps forward, close enough that I can see the way his hands won't stop shaking. "You already know too much," he says, voice low. "More than you ever should've." I don't look away. "Then tell me the rest." He shakes his head. "It's not your place. You don't get to ask." "But I am asking." He exhales sharply. "Jesus, Lily. This isn't a story with a clean ending. I'm not a mystery. I'm a goddamn warning sign. I'm dangerous." I flinch, but I don't move. And that pisses him off more. He takes a step back like he's going to leave, then pauses. His eyes flick to my jacket. In one quick motion, he reaches in and pulls out the burner phone. "I think this belongs to me," he says, tone sharp but quiet. No accusation. Just fact. I don't respond. Just watch as he slips it into his pocket, like closing a door I wasn't supposed to open. He looks at me for one long second, jaw clenched. "Go home," he says again, this time like a warning. And this time, I believe him. He crushes the cigarette under his boot, turns his back, and walks down the alley, leaving me standing in the dark. - Lily didn't ask to be assigned to him. Harry Styles is a name whispered like a warning, famous for his ink, infamous for everything else. Brooding. Untouchable. But Lily has a habit of looking too closely. And when she finds something she shouldn't, the line between curiosity and consequence begins to blur. He told her to stay away. She should've listened. - TW: emotional abuse, manipulation, drugs, sex, violence, trauma.Complete

Beneath Your Skin [H.S]
"I know exactly what you like." I swallowed, my throat dry despite the whiskey. "And what does that have to do with your secret?" His lips curved, the faintest hint of a smirk. "Because I think you want someone who can push back." The heat in my stomach curled tighter, and I hated that too. Hated that he was reading me too easily, hated that I couldn't tell if he was just playing or if he really understood. "That's not much of a secret," I said smoothly, keeping my voice even. "Anyone could guess that." "Maybe," Harry mused, his fingers toying with the rim of his glass. "But I don't think just anyone could keep up with you." I narrowed my eyes, my body betraying me with the way it leaned just slightly closer. "And you think you can?" He didn't answer right away. He just held my gaze, letting the anticipation stretch, letting the weight of it settle between us. Then, finally, his smirk deepened. "I guess that depends," he murmured, his voice dropping to something dark. "Are you gonna let me find out?" // August Paisley was born into bloodshed. As the daughter of Brooklyn's most ruthless mafia leader, she's spent her life sharpening her edges, knowing that love is a liability and trust is a death sentence. With enemies circling and war on the horizon, she has no time for distractions-especially not the kind that comes in the form of sharp-tongued, brooding, Harry Styles. Harry is everything she should hate. The son of her family's greatest enemy. A man raised on the promise of destruction. Their worlds are built on blood feuds and old grudges, and there's no future where the two of them walk away unscathed. But when their paths collide, what starts as a battle of wit and fire turns into something else-something intoxicating, something inevitable. Falling for him is a mistake that cost her everything. Her life. But in a war where nothing is certain, letting him go might be the most dangerous thing of all.

One Word | H.S.
We're all mad here, it's Wonderland. ~ Harry latches onto my passionate on-beat arms as he keeps me from moving forward. "Are you fuckin' mad?" He grits through his teeth. "I'm in Wonderland, Pretty Boy," I throw my free arm in the air, motioning to the surrounding world. "Of course, I've gone a little mad." He flips me around as the level of infuriation rises throughout his clenched jaw, trying to remain composed. "Don't try and be something you're not, Presley." I rip away from his hold, furrowing my brows from the curt statement, the honest revelation that should've just stayed within his mind. "We'll never be the heroes, and you know that," he says, colder than the Arctic's towering waves. "We'll never win." We'll never find Purple. Purple, the color of the Star-Crossed Lovers.Complete
