Harry is sitting there, so fucking casual, and Louis realizes in a split second he was not ready. When Harry walked out in Detroit and never looked back, he was a boy verging on a man, still only twenty years old, but there's a man in his place now. Hard and resolute, yes, but still, for the first time in a long time, Louis can kind of see the old Harry in him. The soft, directness of his gaze, the hesitant smile he gives to Lou, the way he wrings his ridiculously large hands in his lap.

He's a little bit the eager sixteen year old puppy dog again, his innocence and sweetness resurrected miraculously, and Louis freezes in place. He was prepared to face the asshole Harry. He was prepared to meet a whole new Harry.

Louis is not prepared to meet one of the old incarnations of Harry, and it absolutely tears him up.

Or the fic where Harry spirals out of control, the band breaks up, and then he shows back up, five years later.

A Twist of Fate - Larry Stylinson by fishxthis

Louis and Harry grew up together, and were best friends even in their earliest memories. They are 12 years old when Louis has to move to Australia, and they never expect anything to be the same again. They make a pact, a promise to one another, put it in a bottle and throw it out to sea. They promise to get back in touch if any of them ever find the bottle again. A silly, childish pact that isn't so silly when you're only twelve years old. Seven years later, fate turns in their favour. Louis stumbles upon an old, green bottle and Harry just happens to be in Australia as an exchange student. They spend time together catching up, but no amount of time can make up for the seven years they spent apart. It's almost cruel when you realise the one thing most important to you has been in front of you all the while, yet you never realise.

Observation Deck by Shilohpeep

Harry got called in to work brutally hungover. Louis works security in the building that Harry does maintenance in. When the two cross paths, a misunderstanding leads to a rocky, pissed off start to their day. Just when they are about to be rid of each other, they find themselves stuck in the elevator together. What begins as a strange, chance, encounter, turns into something else entirely. *There is no present day r*pe*. Consensual non-consent scenes. Consent confirmed throughout. Light angst. Lots of smut. Lots of fluff. Lots of feelings. Has some recycled wording and themes from my other stories but 🤷🏻‍♀️ TW: sex, **consensual non-consent** substances, slurs, mental illness, past sexual abuse description, mention of suicidal thoughts/attempts, self harm, OCD, PTSD, daddy kink Edit: This turned into another poly fic because my brain is incapable of forming any other type of plot. It's gonna be a bit long and a lil fucked up but over all just really fluffy and smutty.

Beautiful Coincidences - L.S. by Purple8butterfly

Harry never expected his first year at university to be anything more than books, nerves, and awkward small talk. But when he's introduced to Louis, a fiercely ambitious art student with a complicated past, his carefully constructed plans unravel fast. As they're thrown together by shared friends, unexpected late-night conversations, and their own undeniable chemistry, Harry finds himself drawn to Louis in a way that terrifies and thrills him. With a mysterious, controlling stepfather casting shadows over Louis's life and Harry's own insecurities getting in the way, the two must navigate the twists and turns of friendship, love, and loyalty in a whirlwind world of self-discovery. Will they find the courage to be honest with each other-and themselves-or will they lose everything in their attempt to be just friends? ~~~ OR: Harry's first year at college turns out to be a lot messier than he thought, what with Niall as a flatmate, Louis, who suddenly becomes the subject of his dreams and a bad relationship he's fleeing from- Harry hardly has time to breathe. Follow along as Harry inevitably falls for a certain blue-eyed fellow. ~~~ AND: Because sex sells- Louis gripped him tight and Harry leaned forward, needing to kiss him again. They kissed softly as Louis slowly lifted Harry's drenched T-shirt up and off him, treating him like the most fragile creature to walk this earth. He moved on to kissing Harry's neck, both their breathing quickening as Louis helped him pull his T-shirt off too. Harry's hand trailed down Louis' arm, slowly leaning both of them back so they were lying on the bed, cold chests pressed against each other for warmth. ~~~ Perfect fic for you if you're looking for a heart-gripping slow-burn, with ridiculous amounts of humour. Buckle up and dive in!!!

Souls by itstilliswhatitis

@zpanacea gave me the suggestion to write a soulmate fic where Harry's and Louis's souls switch and they wake up in each other's bodies. Until you find your soulmate the world is in black and white until you meet your soulmate. When you turn 18 a tattoo of your soulmate's first word to you appears on your arm. If you're older than your soulmate you stay 18 until he/she/they catch up. When Harry wakes up on his 13th birthday he notices two things. 1. The room is in color. 2. The face staring back at him in the mirror isn't his own. Purely fictional.

There For You {Back For You - Prequel} by LightningandMoments

(You do not have to read Back For You to understand this, this is a PREQUEL to Back For You) High School is full of cliques, judgemental people and moments in time that you wish you could delete with the click of a button. Harry Styles is in his element and he’s gliding through high school like it was his kingdom, he had no problems except how to fit in coursework in between parties, girls and more parties. Louis Tomlinson is in a world too big for him and he’s just trying to find a way to handle it, but it’s a little hard when you get jeered at in corridors and kicked down in back alleys. Harry sees Louis and his world gets knocked off kilter, because suddenly all he wants to do is keep the boy safe, and keep him together, and maybe if this Louis-boy doesn’t mind too much, maybe Harry would like to kiss him. “If there’s a time when you feel so down, I’ll be there to hold you up.” “But Harry-” “I will be there when it’s too much, I’ll be right beside you.” “I-” “Trust me. Don’t pull away. I’m just trying to keep you together, because you’re kind of perfect to me.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Disclaimer: I don't know or own any characters depicted in this fic. It is all fiction, I am not claiming to know what goes on behind closed doors... PS. A CHAPTER OF THIS STORY GOT RATED R BY WATTPAD, SO IF YOU WANT TO READ IT THEN YOU WILL HAVE TO FOLLOW ME, SORRY!!!

wherever you stray, i follow [L.S.] by amystyles2806

THIS IS A FANFIC I FOUND FROM YEARS AGO 😭 IT'S REALLY BAD BUT KINDA HAS SOMETHING NOSTALGIC TO IT SO I DON'T WANNA CHANGE IT 😭 When Harry comes back to his home in London after his world tour, he feels lonely. He didn't know that he'd miss the shows, the crowds, all the people who surrounded him, so much. It was a distraction from where he actually stands in life. Harry wants love, and not in a platonic way like he gets it from his best friend Amy, but in a romantic way. But no woman was ever able to fulfill this. Until Harry starts to wonder if it's even a woman he surches for. Because actually it's this one memory Harry holds onto when he thinks of real love. He thinks of the nights he spent in his youth, cuddled against the chest of someone special. Someone who will never get out of his mind. Someone he still truely loves.

But If Your Love's My Remedy (Larry Stylinson) Ghost!Harry by _SweetDisposition_

"I wish I could touch you..." Louis frowned looking at Harry's hand. "Me too..." Harry smiled sadly looking at Louis straight in the eyes. They stayed like that for a few seconds just looking at each other wanting, wishing they could kiss but knowing that wasn't possible. All Harry wanted was to touch Louis' lips with his own but he couldn't, they had only known each other for a few days and the want and need to have each other was already there. The need to touch burned through their souls setting them alight that only a single touch would be able to put it off but that would never happen and it hurt, it hurt Louis knowing that he was slowly falling in love with a boy he could never have. Or the one where Harry and Louis are soulmates, even though Harry's dead. Warning: Major Character death but HAPPY ENDING. Contains graphic violence, murder, and gay sex. If you don't like any of that then please refrain from reading and from leaving hateful comments. I warned you.

Home by Freckles08

Summary: Louis finds himself out of place in LA, unable to get at an itch that's been bothering him for years. He supposes back in the early days, home hadn't been a place. It'd been a person. He'd etched it permanently into his skin for fucks sake. It was always him and Harry. Stuck to each other like super glue. Pulled together by some magnetic force, existing in their own bubble. Everyone could see it, but that was half the problem, wasn't it? It's not like Louis can pinpoint the exact moment in time when him and Harry fell out of sync. There wasn't really one at all. It had been a gradual slip, like the tide wearing away at a sandstone cliff. Chipping the solid foundations until there was nothing left to stop the structure falling to the waves below. It's not like he spends all of his time sitting around moping over a lost friendship, he's good at distractions. But LA only seems to accentuate the distance between them. Two separate planets, not even in the same solar system

Iron Hearts, Fire Souls by MazeGolden

"Lou..." "I know, Harry! I know what you'll say, we can't right? We can't help each other's needs? We can't be what the other needs? But fuck, what about what we want?! And I say we because you've been saying yes to all of our dates and you've been flirting back all this time and-" He took a deep breath. "And there is nothing that I want more right now than to kiss you." Or the one where Harry and Louis are two single and unmated Lawyer Alphas that have to share an office and even though they shouldn't be that attracted to each other's scents, it sure isn't a big deal, right? I mean, what could go wrong? - Reposted from my original post on AO3.

Past lives by itstilliswhatitis

Louis hated Harry. He was walking around like he was superior, thinking he was so hot and sexy. Well, Louis could see right through it. They had been in a band together for almost two years and Louis avoided him at any cost. What he couldn't avoid on the other hand was how fucking clumsy Harry was. One night Harry tripped on stage and pushed Louis over the edge. While he was unconscious a woman appeared and told him that he had an old soul and that he had lived many lives. She said that she wanted to show him some of those lives to make him realize something. It wasn't like he had anything better to do, being unconscious and all that so he agreed. So he went on some freaky journey in his mind and he couldn't even get away from Harry when he was passed out because every life he had lived included one certain green-eyed boy by his side... Purely fictional. Trigger warning: death
