Summary
Louis never wanted a soulmate, didn’t really care for the whole Bonding thing at all, really. Enter Harry Styles, who’s wanted to be Bonded for as long as he could remember. With one fateful meeting in an X Factor bathroom, Louis gets a dagger on his arm and the realization that just because Harry is his soulmate doesn’t mean it’s mutual.
From the X Factor house to Madison Square Garden, from the Fountain Studios stage to stadiums across the world, Louis has to learn to love without losing himself completely, because someday his best friend will Bond to someone and replace Louis as the center of his universe. Meanwhile, Harry begins to think that maybe fate doesn’t actually know what it’s doing after all, because his other half has clearly been right in front of him the whole time. All he has to do now is convince Louis to give them a chance.
Or, the canon compliant Harry and Louis love story from the very beginning, where the only difference is that the love between them is literally written on their skin, and there’s only so much they can hide.

Summary
Harry sat up then, looking down at Louis with a glint of something in his eyes.
“Let’s make a promise,”
Louis cocked his head.
“Of what?”
Harry smirked at him.
“Let’s promise not to change.”
And Harry didn’t need to explain any further. Louis didn’t understand it, not really, at the time. Because it’d been hardly a week of the lot of them even knowing one another really, and they hardly knew anything about well… Anything, yet. But Louis knew there was something in it. And to be an arse, he raised his pinky.
“No changing,” Louis said. Harry dimpled then, wrapping his pinky around Louis’.
“No changing.”
It was a first of many of their own little personal promises to one another. And the first promise the both of them had broken.
---A story of broken promises, broken hearts, terrible communication and two boys in love, always searching for greener grass.
I've never done this before. This is... What I've always thought may have actually happened. Obviously, this is a work of fiction. This is just for fun -- no harm intended.
I promise, it's not all sad. But it's life, isn't it? So it's not all happy, either.
Hope you enjoy <3 -

Summary
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.

Summary
Louis and Harry were everything. From the second they met in the X Factor washroom, to being put together in One Direction, to touring the world together - they were each other's everything. They fell hard and fast, madly in love with each other but forced to to exist in a world that wasn't ready to accept their love. With the never-ending demands from Modest Management to Louis' relationship with Eleanor, Louis and Harry just weren't built to last.
Now Harry is forced to deal with the fact that Louis and Eleanor are getting married while simultaneously dealing with One Direction finally coming back from hiatus. Everything feels like it's coming apart at the seams. But maybe (just maybe) this was the driving force they needed to finally work their shit out.
OR
The one where Louis and Harry broke up int the midst of One Direction's fame, don't speak for a few years, and finally (finally) are forced to be in the same room as one another.
OR
The one where there is A LOT of angst and pining until there isn't.

But a phone call 5 years later pushes him right back into his old life. Will the band be able to get back together?

Summary
Louis wants to say something about it, because this is a very compromising position and literally anyone could find them, dim lights doing nothing to hide them.
But Harry has him by the chin and he’s bending Louis back in his effort to get at Louis’ neck, and Louis just doesn’t have it in him to stop. Every ounce of adrenaline that’s coursing through Harry’s body, it’s like he’s trying to pour it into Louis’ skin. They’ve dealt with their share of post-concert highs, but Louis has never felt Harry like this before. Almost like Harry wants to remember this moment in the way he makes Louis shudder apart, and Louis would be an idiot to deny him that pleasure.
In which Harry wants to thank Louis for the mic stand next to Ronnie Wood, and Louis just wants Harry to be happy.

Summary
Louis gasped as Harry sensationally bit on his sore skin, caught in the moment. "Haz," he stopped him by taking his wrists. "I don't need you to-"
When Harry's green emeralds stared at him, his heart broke a little. His eyes were red and his skin was gleaming due to the tears. But although he looked fragile and broken, his grip was firm and determined.
"I want to do this," he said, with enough willpower to lift up his cracked voice. "I want you." He got rid of Louis' shirt, next of his pants. He couldn't have stopped him even if he wanted to. "I can wait for you," stated Harry, and he was on his knees before him.

Summary
Harry whines when he feels Louis’ lips detach from his heated skin, but his whining soon turns from sad to heated in the next moment as he hears Louis purr out, 'Zayn, don’t you think Harry looks so pretty like this, when he gets so desperate and needy for my cock?'
Harry’s eyes snap to Zayn. He pants loudly as he thrusts his hips up into Louis’ fist, loose enough that it’s not bringing him to orgasm but still offering enough friction to keep Harry constantly on edge.
He feels his cheeks flush heatedly as he sees how intensely Zayn’s staring at where Louis’ hand disappears under Harry’s sweats. Zayn’s still palming himself over his clothes, the joint hanging loosely from his lips, and it’s a lot for Harry’s high mind to handle at the moment.
'Shit, Lou,' Zayn murmurs, pausing a moment to exhale again. 'Should’ve known you’d have a filthy mouth on you.'
'Yeah?' Louis teases, somehow sounding unaffected by what’s happening. 'Wanna see what else my filthy mouth can do?"
OR... Louis, Harry, and Zayn get high on their tour bus during the X Factor Tour.

Summary
Everything kind of becomes a blur after that. Everyone is jumping and yelling, and hugging? Liam thinks there was a group-hug in there somewhere. Simon said something about putting in a lot of work? He does feel a little bad about not listening to Simon better, but he’s pretty sure he can make an exception this time. Besides, he always works hard. He’s not going to let anything get in the way of achieving his dream, not even the four other boys he’s supposed to rely on now.
Oh fuck, the four other boys he has to rely on now. His future depends on these other boys not only working just as hard as him, but on them working with him. And, to be honest, Liam hasn’t had much luck on that front before. There’s a reason he auditioned as a solo act, after all.
He might throw up after all.
Or, an X Factor era fic where Liam's just trying to fit in, featuring First Time Friend Liam, Actual Dad Louis, All Knowing Niall, Quiet But Deadly Zayn, and Excitable Puppy Harry. Join them on their journey to figure out who they are and how they work together, as band members and as people.

Though the Seasons Change So Quickly (Keep Them Buried In My Heart) by LiveLaughLoveLarry (SoLongAndThanksForAllTheFic) for sweariwouldnt
Fandoms: One Direction (Band)
07 Nov 2017
Tags
Summary
A series of moments of Harry and Louis' relationship through the years, from the very beginning to the present, through the perspective of those around them. It's beautiful and it's brutal, it's awe-inspiring and it's awful - it is what it is.
~*~
"He’s special, Gem," Harry says. "He’s different. Different from anyone else I’ve ever known. I think-”
Gemma holds up a hand. “Slow down, buddy,” she says. “You’ve only known him a few months.”
“I know,” Harry says again, his fingers tugging at the designs embroidered in the blanket. “But it’s still true.”
Gemma studies him for a long moment. It’s interesting, she thinks. She’s never seen him like this -– not really. He’s almost glowing, a smile constantly either present or hiding just below the surface, and while it could just be the band as a whole making him so happy, she somehow doesn’t think so.

Summary
Harry's eyes were shining with unshed tears and his cheeks were red. Louis moved to wrap his arms around Harry.
”Oh, love, come here.”
Harry pushed against Louis' chest, his alpha instincts fighting him for a second before he slumped into Louis' arms. He grabbed fistfuls of Louis' shirt as he curled himself against his alpha.
”I just fucking hate it so much.”
Louis carded his fingers through Harry's curls.
”I know, love. I'm so sorry.”
Harry hates the image of womanizing alpha that management has crafted for him. Louis does his best to comfort his boy.
