He came in like every other student.
His hair looked unbelievably soft, his eyes a color of blue no computer could ever simulate.
His strides were short and his height was below average, but he still managed to hold the confidence of Goliath.
Whenever he spoke, it was dry. A type of rasp that I couldn't place. It was pitchy like a girl's voice, yet it never faltered.
Words left his lips like silk, slipping past his thin, pink lips like my chances to ever be with the boy.
The realization pricked my heart. Similar to the pain I imagined would result from me caressing his sharp cheekbones.
He had only been there but a moment and the swarm had welcomed him like their long lost Messiah.
I was the follower that held no standing.
The boy who never had a chance but always tried anyway.
Because, he was the flawless.
And I was yesterday's news.

Push Me (BoyxBoy)
Louis Tomlinson is a new student at Rollsridge Academy, he can already tell he isn't going to like it here. The halls are to narrow, the lockers are to small, and don't even get him started on the people. Two words to describe each and every one of them. Stuck Up. Harry Styles is the main target for everybody's interest. Everybody who's anybody knows about him. They either want to be him, or be with him. He likes the attention, all the girls and boys falling at his feet asking him to cast them one single glance. He soaks up as much as he can, because he knows when he gets home, it's the exact opposite of his high school life. There is a deep secret hidden under Louis skin, can Harry figure it out before both of their world's fall apart? or is his skin to thick? I know this sounds super cliche, but I swear. It's not. I've worked super hard on it.Complete
Stockholm Syndrome (Larry Stylinson)
My heart was beating and adrenaline was running through my body at a thousand miles per second. My hand wrapped around the door knob, but then I was pulled back painfully by my arm. I was whipped around and was face to face with a pissed off Louis. "Where do you think you're going, love?" He asked, and I gulped at how dark his voice sounded. The sane part of me was absolutley terrified of it, and I didn't like it, but the part of me that thought Louis was incredible was so turned on by his dark side. "Answer the question." He said as he squeezed my wrist tighter, and I winced a bit, but I didn't answer the question. "Were you trying to leave? Were you trying to run away from me?" He asked, and I felt his nails digging into my skin. I gave a small yelp of pain and then he was dragging me harshly by my arm down the hall again. He passed the room that I was staying in before and opened another door that was three doors down. He pushed me inside, and I couldn't see a thing. The room was completely dark. I began to breath faster because I've never been a big fan of the dark. I hated it. I didn't like what I couldn't see. I jumped as I felt a hand on my waist and my breath caught as I felt a surge of electricity run through me. I felt him pull me closer to him until my back was against his chest. His lips rubbed against my ear and he slowly whispered out "You can't leave, Harry. You're never gonna get away. I'm not gonna let you."Complete

Untangle Me - L.S (boyxboy)
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. ------------------------------------ It's a story from Archive of our own!
