I Don’t Want You To Leave, Will You Hold My Hand by roughvoiced (3k)
“Didn’t think you’d still be here,” He whispers, pressing a little kiss in the space beside Harry’s ear and it’s strange, because he’s had his fair share of one night stands, Harry has, it’s just a thing he does, but it’s not usually like this. Yeah, okay so he doesn’t leg it as soon as he’s come but he doesn’t usually stick around long enough for kisses and morning breath, it’s just not a thing (apart from Ben that time but that was different and Ben’s dick was massive and Harry thought he was in love with it). For some reason, though, he doesn’t want to leave now
au; where Harry sleeps around and Louis isn’t good at one night stands
i just know i have found the place my heart belongs by scagnetism (33k)
“Gracie loves faeries, don’t you, little love?” Louis asks, cutting through Harry’s thoughts, and she spares a glance over her shoulder at her father, nodding quickly before looking back at the house and touching it with gentle fingers.
Harry looks up at him, and they share a small smile, Louis making him feel warm, warm, warm. “This is her house, and it’s my favorite thing in my shop,” Harry explains, and Louis crouches slightly so he can see it better.
“’S beautiful,” he murmurs, and Harry smiles appreciatively at him.
Harry looks at Gracie again, blonde hair falling into her face as she inspects the glittery house, and he instinctively tucks her hair back behind her ear. “I’ve never seen the faerie,” he says to her softly, “but sometimes, when it’s very quiet, I can feel her.” He closes his eyes, taking in a breath, just sitting like that for a few seconds for the effect. “That’s how I know she’s watching over me.”
Or, the one where Louis has a quiet little girl, Harry has a toy shop with a magic faerie house, and they were made to fall in love.
I Like The Way You Bend For Me, Baby by TheCellarDoor (50k)
Uni AU, in which Harry is a part-time yoga instructor with rock hard nipples and skin-tight leggings, and Louis most definitely isn’t charmed.
i made these plans with you around by smokeofthetrain (16k)
Louis remembers the day he met Harry like it’s permanently ingrained into his mind. Most memories from his childhood have faded over time. He doesn’t remember losing his first tooth, or getting his first report card, or playing in his first soccer match.
But Harry?
He remembers Harry.
I need home (our tangled bones) by togetherwecouldbealright (69k)
Louis runs a record label and Harry is his daughter's new nanny. Over the course of a year, Harry helps Louis learn what it really is to be a father and somehow they find an unexpected home in each other.
Or, the kid fic where Louis wants to make Harry a star, Zayn just needs everyone to stop being stupid, Niall laughs his arse off at everything, Liam attempts to keep things in order and Harry takes a chance.
I roll and I roll, 'til I change my luck by lightofathousandstars (8k)
“They’re not my best pictures.”
“I wouldn’t say that, I think you look quite good being manhandled by a bigger man.”
Louis chokes on his sip of hot chocolate, feeling it burn its way down his throat. He coughs a few times and then clears his throat. “I’m sorry?!”
“You heard me. You should do it more often, it might make you more humble. Maybe you’ll learn to respect people.” Or Louis is a bored, rich kid whose latest stunt got him arrested and forced to attend a fundraiser at an ice rink, Zayn is his unlucky partner in crime, Harry is the cute hospital volunteer who is having none of his attitude, Niall is the worst DJ in the world, and Liam is Leslie Knope.
I Walk the Line by Awriterwrites (55k)
Professor Louis Tomlinson is the leading researcher in his field. Harry Styles is Louis’ recently hired grad assistant. Sparks fly between them but something doesn’t add up when it comes to Harry, and Louis is determined to find out what.
What happens when everything Louis thought he knew comes crashing down around him? Is he doomed to repeat his past mistakes? Or will he learn to follow his heart and find a way to forge his own path, alongside someone he’s not sure he can trust, but who might just be the best thing to ever happen to him.
(I Will Run Into) The Hurricane by cherrystreet (12k)
They meet just before college graduation when the opportunities are endless. Harry is willing to give up everything that comes his way to be with Louis. Louis is terrified.
They love each other so much, but sometimes, that isn't always enough.
I Would Bleed The Colors of the Evening Stars by peanutbutterapple (21k)
Louis needs a fake boyfriend and Harry wants to know why he doesn't pick him.
If You Build Yourself a Myth by pukeandcry (13k)
Harry is six the first time he makes something change. (magical realism AU)
If You Wanna Try Me On by zimriya (19k)
To be fair, Harry’d been half asleep when Niall convinced him to put in his CV in the first place. Like, Harry wants to be a proper serious journalist--he’s not about to give up that dream in favour of becoming a personal assistant at a fashion magazine, or...whatever. Harry’s not actually all that sure what Tomlinson Styles even is, beyond his ticket to fame or any of the other things Niall’d spouted off at him, but when he shows up for the interview and is unceremoniously shoved into an office with the Tomlinson part of that equation, all Harry can really think about is that he would like to be a Tomlinson-Styles.
...or the Devil Wears Prada AU that no one wanted. Sort of.
i’ll be yours to keep by midnights (18k)
louis should've thought a lot more about who he said his fake boyfriend is, especially since he and his "significant other" kinda hate each other. most of the time.
in the end I started thinking about the beginning by infinitelymint (22k)
When Louis returned from Malaysia to attend his best mate Zayn's wedding, he hadn't expected their wedding planner to be Harry Styles. Over the next two weeks Louis learns that maybe staying in one place permanently isn't so bad, as long as you have someone to stay with.
In This Light by exhilarated (99k)
Harry is a wardrobe stylist who likes to live in the moment, and Louis is a popstar who looks dreamy in double breasted jackets. Harry never stood a chance.
Indestructible by whoknows (24k)
“Hi,” Harry murmurs, and Louis hiccups out a sob.
“Hi,” he manages, still clutching onto Harry’s shoulders. Harry’s fingers drift across Louis’ cheeks, and there’s something off about Harry’s expression, but Louis can’t figure out what it is.
“I’m okay,” Harry says, and Louis is going to say something to that, even if he doesn’t know what, except Harry’s kissing him.
Louis freezes.
infinitely all for me by swallowsmateforlife (11k)
The Alpha Louis' been betrothed to since he was 14 has finally come of age and Louis' been delivered to his home.
or: the one where they figure it all out.
Into The Blue by zarah5 (117k)
AU. In which Louis is Harry's scuba instructor and quite happy to provide the requested special treatment, pun fully intended. It can't be all that difficult to convince Harry that they're on the same page, right? Also, Niall and Liam may or may not be dating, and Zayn is surrounded by emotionally stunted idiots. He bears it with dignity.
It all comes out in the wash by Conscious_ramblings (3k)
Harry and Louis are flatmates at uni. In the month they have lived in halls, Harry has found lacy underwear in his laundry four times. At first he thought it was an innocent mistake. The second time he was just confused. The third time he started to sense a pattern. And when Louis walks in on him just after he discovers the fourth pair, well that’s when everything changes
It started with a whisper by jaded25 (92k)
Louis doesn't do relationships. He's been there, done it, got the scars to prove it. Never letting anyone too close, Louis can be head over heels for someone for one night but when morning comes, he will be out of the door, no feelings and no regrets.
Harry always gives too much, trusts too easily, falls too quickly. Even when he gets nothing in return. Forced to attend University, Harry bumps into his sister's roommate and another time, another day Harry would have been a goner the very second he’d laid eyes on Louis. But he's already got the perfect boyfriend and Louis is the complete opposite of perfect.
Louis isn't someone who Harry thought he could ever be with, and Louis never thought he'd break his rules for anyone.
Sometimes being wrong isn't so bad after all.
It Started With A Whisper by MukeSinner (151k)
Louis Tomlinson was comfortable in his shell, not at all wanting to go out in the world and do things that would involve him being social... Until Harry Styles swooped in and changed that all. Harry is well known for the reputation he quickly picked up by beating up the jock at his school. People knew not to mess with him, seeing as he was now considered the schools bad ass. But what happens when Louis Tomlinson discovers that Harry isn't as bad as he wants to appear? Behind those dark eyes and clenched fists, is a boy who is looking for someone to make him feel love again.
This isnt your typical bad boy/ nerd story. In this, the badboy isn't a douche to the nerd, and the nerd isn't completely defenseless or naive to Harry's intentions. This is a story where two totally different puzzle pieces were shoved together, creating a beautiful, yet imperfect picture on top.
Part 1 of It started with a whisper
it starts and it never fades away by scagnetism (5k)
“Niall told me I should put an ad out in order to get a date, and it’s three days before Valentine's Day, so everyone is already gonna have a date, but to get him to shut up, I’m doing this.” Louis turns his computer to face Harry, revealing the word document where he’s typed out the most ridiculous, unappealing, horrifying letter he can think of. “This’ll get Niall to fuck right off, I reckon.”
Or, Louis puts out a flyer to help him get a date he absolutely doesn't want. He gets more than he bargained for.
ivy and gold by starseas (37k)
AU. “we should get married," louis says, and this time, neither of them say no.
Part 2 of glitter / gold
