⋙ "Do you think I chose to be this way?"

"Yes, at one point you chose it, because it was easier than being confronted with the reality." ⋘

◈

We live in a world where we have to pretend to be somebody else. Where we have to act like we are fine. The society wants us to be perfect. Some people break under the pressure, trying to fix themselves with drugs, but that only makes their life fall apart...

Silenced- A Larry Stylinson Story by LondonsQuiteBig2

He wants to shout it from the rooftops. He can't, and that hurts. "Love isn't about finding the perfect person. Because, if you are measuring perfection based on society's standards, nobody is ever perfect, even though everyone spends their lives striving to reach a level of acceptance that is physically impossible, and destroy themselves from the inside doing so. No, love isn't about finding that person who is void of flaws, or who is, in a social sense, perfect. Love, in its entirety, is about finding someone who is overwhelmingly imperfect, but willing to grow and learn with you, and it's about finding that person perfect- complete with all of their flaws and imperfections. It's not about changing someone, or "perfecting" them; it's just seeing the person, whom you wish to spend your life with, and who would break the universe to see you smile, it's about seeing them, an imperfect human being, perfectly. Harry, in my very broken and flawed mind, is... perfect. He is all that is perfect and all that is sweet and kind and funny just plain weird, but I love him with all of the love my heart could ever wish to possess. I love him with a passion that could silence the world, a passion only seen in storybooks and movies. A raging, fiery, bittersweet, all-consuming passion called love." TW: Self-harm/mentions of rape

Waking Up Alone (L.S) by larrycocainex

"Nothing makes you hurt like hurting who you love" Love shouldn't hurt, loving somebody with everything you have shouldn't make you feel like you're dying. Louis feels like he's drowning. He should have known where this was going from the start, he should have been prepared. Now he's waking up in an empty bed, some days he doesn't want to even wake up again. There's a hole in his heart; it's in the shape of Harry. Nothing he does can fill it. Drugs, alcohol, pouring out his heart into songs that Harry probably won't ever hear. When Louis is with him, he feels like he's in heaven. Being alone, that's what he feels he deserves, at least Harry can be happier without him. Maybe if they met at a different time, under different circumstances, he could have saved them. Louis had to do what was best for Harry, but it kills him a little everyday. Louis sees his smile everyday, but he knows it's no longer for him. Someone else makes Harry happier, but Louis wanted it to be him. They could have had forever. Louis would have given Harry everything. "Forget what I said, it's not what I meant" Harry had tried to say, but Louis knew that wasn't the truth. After everything they've been through, Louis still loves him.

Live|Laugh|No Love by 28Tommo_Styles28

I dont want love, I dont need love, and Im damn sure not going to give love. There is no love in me. So I thought. Until him.

❝there are things that we don't want to happen, but have to accept; things we don't want to know, but have to learn; and people we can't live without, but have to let go❞

Wish from a shooting star (Larry Stylinson) by 1dl4rry

"I said I love you," he repeats, this time softer, not as a yell anymore. A single tear streaks down the other boy's cheek when he shrugs his shoulders. "I wished you would." - Harry is a 16 year old boy who's always been the easiest target for everyone. After his friend Niall introduces him to Louis, few things go wrong. Harry falls in love with the wrong gender. Accepting it is one thing, but dealing with the consequences is another. And suddenly, he's 14 again, sitting on the cold bathroom floor. All he wishes for is to get what he deserves. Except he's not sure what that is yet. Louis, on the other hand, has recently gotten out of his first ever relationship and had to switch schools right away because of his ex. It surely had some impact on him, definitely not the best one ever. He struggles with his emotions. But the second he lays his blue eyes on the curly haired boy, there's a spark of hope. That maybe someone might actually love him for him. Which is all he's ever wished for. Will their wishes come true? - TW: Contains themes some readers might find difficult. Such as: suicidal thoughts, attempt of committing, physical (+ sexual)/verbal abuse, self-harm, drugs, alcohol, body shaming, smut... Disclaimer: None of this is real. This is fiction.

The Ghost of You - Larry Stylinson by lousbumtohazsdik

"DON'T!" Harry abruptly stopped at the edge of the 40-story building at the voice heard from behind and slowly turned around. "Please, don't." Louis begged slowly stepping closer to Harry who was so close to flinging himself off the building to the cold hard floor beneath it. "You're not real." Harry whispered, closing his eyes for a second. He stared Louis dead in the eye before screaming, "YOU'RE NOT REAL!" Louis flinched at the sudden outburst, but he composed himself quickly. "I am, Harry. I'm real and I'm here!" He said extending his arm towards Harry silently asking him to feel him. "No, no, no! You have said it before, but you are not!" Harry shook his head. "It's just the ghost of you." *** Or one where Harry has Schizophrenia, and he refuses to believe that Louis is real even when he is real. This book may contain triggering content for some people, so please read at your own risk. I have done my research on Schizophrenia but if I ever got something wrong or offensive please do tell me.

Past Escaping's *Larry AU* by Ness2813

In 2012, Louis Tomlinson was just twenty years old, he had an amazing step father, a wonderful mother, great siblings, but his boyfriend...he was involved in some deep shit with his cousin. Only way to pay him was to string along Louis in both physical and emotional pain. Harry was seventeen, experimenting freely with all the men he could find. Once he met a certain red head boy at a New Years eve party in Doncaster, he really hit it off. Now, three years later, both boys have changed dramatically. Harry losing his mother, gaining a great paying job, losing his ginger boyfriend, finding his twin brother again. He was going through the normal stuff. Louis on the other hand, nightmares, moving, money, shame, scars, mother in a coma. These two find themselves in London being slightly curious with the other. But they didn't realize that they both had one friend or ex friend in common, and they were about to get in some even deeper shit than back in 2012. It's their past escaping's coming back.

Mosaic by omqpunkrock

Louis Tomlinson has always had self esteem problems; he never thought he was skinny or handsome, as he became older, he began to try to change things. Louis began to change his style of clothing and his hair, he also began to diet. His dieting was different than other peoples diet, he started to starve himself and if he had ate too much, he'd make himself purge. He felt like he needed to be perfect for someone to love him, he feels like no one would love a fat blob like him. Harry Styles is sad, very sad. He doesn't know how to explain his sadness, all he knows it that he wants to die; he doesn't want to live. He hates himself more than anyone on this planet. Harry doesn't exactly know what's wrong with him, he can fake a smile, he can make it look like he's having the time of his life when in reality he would rather be dead. Harry hates himself, he hates everything about himself; he believes that no one would love him; a suicidal boy that cuts himself. Both of these boys have different things wrong in their life, but they're both beautiful, they're both kinda like a mosaic; broken into pieces, but still works of art.

Bitter Desire [Larry Stylinson] by hsluts

"It's always the secretly gay, closeted men who have the deepest resentment towards the openly gay ones." "You don't know what the fuck you're talking about. I'm not fucking gay." - Or the one where Louis swore he wasn't gay - until Harry moved in with his stupid painted nails and that annoying confidence that made everything Louis thought he knew feel like a lie. - ALSO ON AO3: HSLUTS Trigger warnings: - Internalised homophobia - Physical violence - Childhood trauma

Seven Simple Words (Larry Stylinson) by jacaranda_bloom

It's not like he and Louis were a couple. No, they might have been a lot of things-best mates and colleagues with a seemingly convenient friends-with-benefits arrangement-but never a couple. It wasn't Louis' fault he didn't feel the same way and couldn't reciprocate Harry's feelings in the way he'd wanted, the way he'd needed. Harry had allowed himself to get in too deep, his entire being aching to be loved back by the object of his affections. But in love, as in life, you don't always get what you want. OR the one where you don't always get what you want the first time around, but sometimes the universe decides to give you a second chance at getting it right. Note: This work contains explicit sexual content.
