Calm after the Storm by Darling28__

Louis and Harry have been best friends since childhood and lovers since they were 15. They can't imagine their lives without each other and yet that's exactly what they both have to cope with when Harry is allowed to do a year's internship abroad. Both initially believe they can manage it but everything suddenly crumbles and neither of them knows how to hold on to the other. While Harry suddenly has a rising career ahead of him, Louis slips into an abusive relationship after their break up without realising it. But what happens when Harry comes back and stands in front of Louis again after years of separation? And how do you deal with it when you still love the other person as much as you did from the beginning?

Please Find Me (Larry Stylinson Story AU) by RulerOfAllNinjas

Harry Styles was kidnapped at birth. His mother, Anne, was told that he died. But how could such a healthy baby die once he was taken to get checked up? Anne refused to believe this and spent the rest of her life searching for her baby. When the police finally find him and save him from his abusive kidnapper, he is forced into a new world that he never dreamed of. He lives with his real family that actually cares for him and a new school that seems to actually care whether the students are going to do well in life. Harry can deal with that. But what he can't deal with is a boy called Louis Tomlinson. Louis is a popular boy at school who has taken a shine to Harry's shy and on edge demeanor. Louis wants to know what happened to the green eyed boy that caused him to be so scared of everyone else. But can Louis find out what happened to Harry while keeping a secret of his own? And can Harry keep his emotions hidden behind the wall he made so he doesn't get hurt worse then he already has? Warning: There are scenes of rape!

Right By Your Side ~ Larry Stylinson by ontsmette

Marine Biologist Harry Styles works at SeaWorld Australia and conducts dolphin therapy sessions for people suffering trauma or fear of water. He loves his job and his life in Australia, but it all gets turned upside down when a beautiful blue eyed boy from the UK is sent down under for therapy after a near drowning incident. Louis Tomlinson dived into the river to save his sister without a second thought to his own safety. When he almost drowned trying to save her, the after effects are severe. After a particularly bad panic attack, he is referred to a program in Australia, where he finds himself in the care of the prettiest boy he's ever seen. Can they maintain the professional boundaries required to get Louis well again, or will their desire for each other be too hard to fight?

Sinking Ships | L.S | by tbhNiallsGirl

Harry Styles has been the protege of his parents since he was fourteen years old. With missing so much of his childhood, he doesn't exactly know how to act like a regular kid- which may be the cause of his social awkwardness. With barely a friend in his school and his parents on his case, he takes to the internet for the attention he needs. Little did he know that just three and a half thousand miles away, his other half was suffering from the same exact thing. With parents that only cared for their fix, it's no wonder that Louis turns to people he's met through the internet for comfort. Of course with his hard exterior, he takes a different approach when meeting people online. All that changes with one simple message and before Louis knows it, he's hooked on a boy that has never tasted McDonalds. "I'm falling in love with a boy across the ocean and now I'm drowning in what couldn't be."

love me until the end by louistomlinsonkink

"Dr. Styles there's an emergency at the maternity ward. The head nurse called for you, he needs you there as soon as possible." The trainee tells Harry over the phone, catching his attention. Louis Tomlinson, the Louis Tomlinson is calling him? He lowers his clipboard and nods his head, getting up from his chair. "Tell Mr. Tomlinson I'll be there right away." AU where Louis, an Omega, is the head nurse of the hospital in charge of running the nursing staff. Harry, an Alpha, is a highly respected surgeon working at the same hospital. They also happen to fall in love. (this story is also posted on my account - larrystylinsonkink - on ao3)

the babysitter || h.s✔️ by 1dsonlyangel

[COMPLETE] "This isn't right.." I breathe, his soft lips layering onto my skin softly. I part my lips and grab hold to his thick hair, my eyes closing in bliss. "I know, but I can't stop." He mumbles on my skin. Harry Styles is a single father with a six year old and recently got a job that makes the days long and almost impossible to look after his daughter while working. Salem, a 16 year old girl who is homeschooled filled out an application online and she caught Harry's eye. Maybe..a bit too much.

WHAT REALLY MATTERS - LARRY STYLINSON FANFICTION by lovemylarry

After finishing school, Harry Styles starts studying at Manchester University. Harry is a nice, innocent boy who has his heart in the right place. In contrary, Louis Tomlinson doesn't have anything in common with Harry. He likes parties, alcohol, sex, takes drugs, smokes and works in his father's dirty business. Their worlds are so different and for sure, they would have never met if it wasn't for that coincidence that slowly brings them closer to each other and changes both of their lifes completely.

"so I think Louis should work as an assistant" "this useless piece of shit working for someone, no man he will just cause troubles, he is worth nothing" "c'mon man, he is not that bad." "what's it for me?" "I am offering him a job for Harry Styles, think about it, he would work good and you can get in the good books of Harry, what could be better?" "hmm...fine" - TW: rape mentions, physical abuse

The Prince Of Light (Larry Stylinson) by jacaranda_bloom

Louis was found abandoned at a hospital at six months old and adopted by an older couple who raised him. Now twenty, he studies by night and by day works as a live-in au pair for a family with three little girls. One of the girls, Holly, swears there is a Garden Fairy coming and eating treats she leaves out in the cubby house each night. When the family goes away for a two week holiday, Louis is secretly tasked with feeding the Fairy. While laying out the food one night, he falls from the cubby house and is found by Harry. Harry is different, and Louis is fascinated. But as Louis learns how different Harry really is, he discovers his own true home and a very surprising past he never knew. Cue badgers, bananas and cookies, soulmates, a whole other world, and a future he'd never imagined. Notes: This work contains explicit sexual content and fantasy themes.

It Ended With An "Oops" And "Hi" by flowercrownss

Louis Tomlinson and Harry Styles. Two boys who have hopeless crushes on one another, despite never having a conversation. Their lives are far from perfect, and what makes it even worse, is that they don't have each other. Louis has taken notice to the boy with curly hair who works at the bakery. He is completely smitten with Harry and when he finds out that the feelings may be returned, he can barely believe it. However, Louis is scared. Everything in his life is horrible, and Louis is afraid that if he tries to get with Harry, he will be ripped away from him. Harry found the small, blue-eyed boy running through his mind constantly. He always knew that he was gay, but was never one to be open about it, mainly because he craved to be accepted. Harry wants nothing more than to be with Louis, yet the fear of judgement holds him back. It's obvious to everyone that these two boys were meant for each other. But Louis and Harry are afraid of losing everything. The sad truth is, not everyone gets their happily ever after. ---------- WARNING: Mentions of rape, mentions of self-harm, abuse, swearing, and a whole lot of gayness.
