Mature

Anna had her story down to a science, parents that lived in Paris, a trust that unlocked when she graduated college, the lifestyle everyone wanted and loved her for. She was living the dream.

Until he burst in and tore her lies apart.

*****
Exert/:

"Please, Harry," I begged, turned almost fully in the front seat of the jeep, "I know you don't owe me anything, but I need you to keep this quiet."

Harry stared at me with those shocking jade eye, pondering over my plea.

It would be so easy for him to shove my begging back into my face and tell that world who their precious Adelaide St James really is,  and with the way I spoke to him the other day, I wouldn't be surprised.

"You do really well in your classes," he spoke suddenly, "you ace every test you do."

I frowned in confusion, "Yeah, I need a B average to stay in school."

He nodded in acknowledgment, looking back at the building in front of him before finally turning to face me.

"I'll keep your secret, James," he began, "on one condition."

Anchor Grind (H.S. / A.U.) by hardcandy92

Started: June 2023, Completed: June 2024 Alanis and Harry are living their best lives at the hottest skate park in Venice Beach, circa 1998. Between the concerts, parties, drugs, alcohol, friendships, and board tricks begging to be learned... will there also be a budding romance or simply a heartbreak waiting to happen? *** PREVIEW: Harry finally speaks up, "do you still hate me?" I ponder trying to think honestly about my answer. Hate is a pretty strong word, but do I really hate Harry? "I don't hate you." I sighed not wanting to have another one of these perplexing moments of pure weirdness with Harry, but really that's all we have at this point. I reach out to actually touch Harry's costume for the first time. I could have told Harry it bothered me how he acts differently around me when our friends are around. It bothers me that Harry doesn't always play nice. "Harry," as I say his name, his face perks up a little, "you just are complicated and I don't like complicated." *** This book is a mature read that may contain vulgar language, assaults/abuse, sexual content, descriptive violence, drug abuse, and explicit content.

Rising Stars [H.S] by tpwk1d00

'The arena was huge. I mean, I knew this girl was famous, but this is as big as the stadiums I would play in during my One Direction days, and those were fucking enormous. I look out the window of the tented black vehicle I was in and see the hundreds of thousands of fans waiting outside, all dressed in skirts or dresses for the big event. "I told you Harry, this girl is huge." Frank speaks up from beside me, snapping me out of my stare. "I didn't have to come to one of her fucking shows to know that. I don't even know why I'm here." I mumble, rolling my eyes and looking out the window at the road that was moving fast beneath us. I didn't even want to be here, and if I am being honest I didn't even want to work with her. Yeah, her music is good and all, but she seems like fucking priss. I've watched a couple of her interviews, and she seems boring as hell. Sure, she's hot as fuck, but she does not seem like my type at all. "Because, you're going to be working with her for a while, Harry. Plus if this whole thing works out as planned, you're going to want to get to know her." He reminds me, winking.' ~~~~~~ It's hard to fall in love when the whole world is watching you.

"It's an easy job." He continues, as if Louis wants to listen. "Like I said, a few trips. Parties, students, nothing dramatic." Louis gazes over to Harry. He's looking thoughtful now, eyes on the green like he's talking more to himself than Louis. "Clubbing, drinks. Whatever, the business is just a side thing." That's not how Louis remembers it to be, "You lying?" He honestly can't tell. Harry shakes his head slowly, meeting Louis' eyes. "No," He answers almost toneless.

He said, staring at me through the thick smoke that came out of his mouth as he spoke. "And what if I don't want to?" "Trust me, you do." "Why is that?"

Affinity [h.s] by Louisgurl1D

[COMPLETED] "I see you've become brave" He chuckles, his eyes dark. "I didn't have a choice," I say without a hint of emotion in my voice. His eyes stay still at me when after a certain point I look away for a moment as the situation was getting too intense. Our silent breathing filled the room as he stood there holding me to the door, his fingers digging deep in my skin. Hard but not enough to hurt. "You have to tell me what goes on in your mind when it comes to me. Why do you keep hurting me?" I look him in the eyes, questioning. He leans in making me doubt what he intended to do as I turn my head looking to my left. His forehead softly touches my temple and rests against it. For some reason, it calmed me down. I stand there not moving a bone, too scared perhaps. Slowly, he takes a few strands of hair tucking it behind my ear. I hear him take a deep breath, and slowly exhale through his mouth parting his lips. His warm breath made my skin moist as he slowly he leans further down to my ear and he touches it softly with his lips sending shivers down my body. "Trust me, you don't wanna know what goes on in my mind when it comes to you." //Grace Evans is the childhood friend of Harry Styles, a member of the world-famous band 'Affinity'.

Red Volkswagen || h.s. by hotgirlharry

Westlake, South Carolina. Home to Brooklyn Callahan, the best latte maker on the east coast. Or so her mom tells her. She's lived in the mundane town with two stop lights her whole life, never needing more than the beach, her record player, and three coffees a day to counteract her terrible sleep schedule. Nothing interesting has ever happened to her and nothing ever will...that is, until one of the most famous, brown haired, green eyed nineteen year olds in the world waltzes into her work near closing and orders a black coffee. The ten minute exchange doesn't go very far, but with the whole summer ahead of him, Harry is determined to learn more about the first person he's met in a long time that didn't know his name. Brooklyn has only known quiet, and Harry has only known commotion. What happens when they show each other the sides of life they've been missing, overcome trials, and experience heartbreak, all while learning what love is in the process? EXCERPT: "I'm Harry." He says, and I only furrow my brow deeper. "Brooklyn." I say, even though I told him last night. "And I'm confused." "About what?" "You." "Already? We barely know each other yet." "Yet?" "I said I had the summer off." "...Congrats?" He laughs. "If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to make the most of it in your little town you call Westlake." Now I laugh. Hard. Almost a little too hard. And now I'm embarrassed. "Sorry, I just have no idea why you would subject yourself to that." I sigh. "I'd like a little bit of nothing." He says, repeating my words from last night. "I mean I guess there's nothing wrong with that...but why are you telling me this?" His gaze averts from me to the window for a few seconds before he looks back at me and shrugs his shoulders. "Don't know. But I like you, Brooklyn, so maybe you can show me around." - every chapter is based off of a taylor swift song, but you don't have to be a fan of hers to read! <3 STARTED JANUARY 2022 COMPLETED AUGUST 2022

Agitated Afternoons// h.s by Justeen_96

Final Book In the Sleepless Nights Series "I need you." "Harry.." I whispered as he leaned against me. I didn't want to push him off. I wanted to stay like this, pressed up against him but we were in a public area. Someone could recognize us and snap a photo. "I need you now more than ever." He continued, moving his head closer to mine. I breathed in. Our lips were an inch apart. He slowly closed the space between us. Soft and warm. I didn't fight it and as I wrapped my arms around his neck, his went around my waist. I didn't want to let go of him, of this moment. Harry was the love of my life, I knew this. So why was everything trying to keep us apart? ---- Another year has come and gone and yet, Terra and Harry are not together. Publicly that is. They're madly in love but not "together".
