The Archive

This blog is dedicated to all the amazing One Direction slash fanfictions out there. So on this blog you will find stories that contains all the pairings within the band. Not just Larry. The blog was in the beginning, and still is, for my own enjoyment so that I could find my favourites again, but is now run by another person as well. ~*~ If you're unsure about the tagging system or what a pairing name means then try the links "information" and/or "pairings" in the sidebar. We also take recommendations, even if it's your own stories. One of us will read it, and if we enjoy it, it just might end up here.

The house on West 28th Street in London is twice the size of Louis’, more expensive than the price of all of his house and car payments combined, and is falling apart at the seams.

Need So Much of You by lululawrence

Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson  |  47k  |  3/3 Chapters

“Alright, I’m just going to get right down to it,” Jess said. “We were contacted yesterday by Harry Styles’ team with some information regarding his own schedule and promotion that is going to have some bearing on Louis.”

“Me specifically or all former members of the band?” Louis asked, confused.

“You specifically,” Jess said, looking at Louis with a heavy gaze. “Harry’s going to start his own promo for his second album in the coming months, which is going to include a coming out.”

“That’s great,” he said, nodding. “Is that it? Or is there more?”

Mark shifted in his seat and Louis watched his expression change. “We’ve discussed it and we think it would be best if you came out as well and had a promotional relationship with Harry for the album drop through both of your tours next year.”

Louis started laughing in surprise, but no one else joined in. Shit, they were serious.

Or the would-have-been canon compliant, fake relationship, friends with benefits, friends to lovers fic where Louis wonders if this thing going on with Harry is going to break him or change everything for the better.

Buy me a coffee?

[1dslasharchive]

Hi everyone! I just read my inbox, there is a very long list of people having sent me asks, recommendations and applications to be Co runner of this blog. As you may, or may not have realised, this blog has basically been dead for a very long time--and for that I am sorry.

The fact that people have still recommended me stories, or thanked me/us for recommending stories is amazing and I'm super grateful. Sadly, or not sadly for me, I met my partner a few years ago, bought an apartment and got a kid--and I completely stopped reading for nearly 2 years, and when I did pick it up again it has not been one direction fics. It has mainly been Teen Wolf or Harry Potter.

That being said though, I'm running out of good fics left to read in those fandoms. I'm thinking of getting back to Larry fics, sadly I'm not really into any other pairing as of lately, and I'm wondering if there is any interest in me continuing this rec blog, or not? Maybe getting back to a few of those Co runner applicants and airing if they're still interested.

Let me know if there is. I hope everyone has a wonderful day, and that these past years have been filled with reading, love and happiness. And I wish you all well! Xx

Interested in being a Fic Beta?

Ages ago there was a list made of people willing to beta for authors in the 1D fandom. I get messages fairly often about people looking for help with their fics and it’s been some time since that list was updated. Since the OP is no longer active, I thought I’d try to make a new list.

If you’re interested in being a beta, can you please send me an ask off anon (or a DM) with a little description including if you’re native English speaker (from where?), if you can britpick, if you can help with plot and pacing and brainstorming, or if you’re better at sticking to things like grammar and typos, and anything else you think might be helpful for an author to know about you.

I’ll put together a list and update it as more people volunteer. Please signal boost this so it can reach as many people as possible. Thank you!

decorated emergency by harrapunzel (10k, 1/1)

So what if they kissed once. It was the end of a shift that had seemed to drag on for twelve days instead of twelve hours. Their doctor was slow and felt the need to transfer every single patient, putting more work on every member of staff. Harry was stressed. Louis was the one who crowded him up against the door in the break room. It was Louis’ fault, he was always pulling shit.

Harry is an ER nurse, Louis is a paramedic, and Niall makes a bet.

[cherrystreet]

(From this ask!)

Harry is sat on the couch Friday night, leftover Chinese food on the coffee table in front of him, Bridesmaids playing on the telly. The soy sauce absolutely reeks; he knows he should get up and toss it out, especially before Liam gets home from his date, but Melissa McCarthy just adopted a litter of yellow labs and he can’t bring himself to turn away from the film, nearly snorting laughing.

He’s still lazily lounging when Liam walks through the door, blazer slung over his shoulder, kicking his shoes off in the general direction of the closet door.

He sits up, yawning. “Hey, how’d it go?”

Liam sniffs the air and makes a face. “Seriously, with the takeaway?”

Harry waves his hand. “I’m still eating.”

He raises a brow at the mess on the table. “Yeah. Looks it.”

“Anyway. The date. Louis’ his name, right? It went well?”

Liam sucks in his cheeks and pushes Harry’s legs off the couch, making room for himself to sit down. “Okay. So. You know that episode of Friends where Phoebe dates that random guy and when Monica asks her how it went, Phoebe tells her that she’s found Monica’s soulmate?”

Harry sits up slowly. “Yes…”

“And then Monica meets the guy and they totally hit it off and they start talking about French food and how they both love cheese and want to live in a cheese house?”

Harry gestures with his hand. “Get to the point, Liam.”

“I just found the guy you’re supposed to live in a house of cheese with.”

He snorts. “Excuse me?”

taste on my tongue by bethaboo (77,933 words, complete)

Louis Tomlinson, second place winner on TXF four years ago, is looking to reinvent his career.

Harry Styles is a baker who is desperate for a bakery of his own.

Louis doesn’t bake. Or cook. Or know how to use an oven.

Take Louis. Take Harry. Add in a heaping cup of sexual tension. Another cup of delicious (and not so delicious) food. A smidgen of competitive spirit. A dash of hopes and dreams. And you get Kitchen Wars, a TV show that promises to be the must-watch event of the fall.

Is This Seat Taken?

Fandom: One Direction

Pairing: Harry/Louis, side Zayn/Liam

Length:  35507

Status: Complete

Rating: Explicit

Summary:

A borrowed suit from Zayn, a cigarette and the right attitude, and Louis went from security breach to misplaced celebrity instantly. He could practically see the wheels in the security guy’s head switch from ‘could be dangerous’ to ‘could get me fired’. 

L.A was so predictable.

Louis makes a bet with Zayn that he can sneak into a music awards event without getting caught, and when he ends up posing as a seat-filling member of staff he runs into superstar Harry Styles and sparks fly. Que the music.

FIC REC: Have You Coming Back Again by whoknows

Louis eats a chip and stares longingly at Liam’s plate. “I wouldn’t touch Harry’s dick with a ten foot pole.”

“You touch Harry’s dick at least three times a week,” Liam says blankly. “You’re not getting any chips. You can stop staring.”

What the hell is wrong with people on this campus. “Seriously, why does everyone always assume that me and Harry are together? Last week one of my residents called him my boyfriend.”

“Well, maybe next time you’re drunk at a party and someone brings you to him saying, ‘Styles, I’ve got something that belongs to you’ you should protest,” Liam says. “Useless, I’m telling you.”

Fav Fic/Fic Rec 2/? : After Hours by Velvetoscar​ Word Count: 26k “Because you’re just an insecure mess that’s constantly trying to make others feel inferior to you because all you have is your tiny job with your subpar sports column and you know that nobody will remember you, Louis. You know that you are insubstantial and aren’t talented enough, not nearly, and you know that all you have is your bravado because you don’t have any other weapon to wield. You’re a tiny, forgettable person, Louis Tomlinson, in a sea of anonymity.” He says the entire thing in one breath, head a bit dizzy, pulse rabbiting.

And then Harry closes his mouth, startled as himself because… Where exactly did that come from, again?Silence settles between them.The cocky smile that had been soaked into Louis’ features slowly ebbs away. His eyes, blue and smooth as they are, diminish, their light shaded and muted and dull, seeming very distant. He looks…hurt. Sad. Small.

Something sharp hits Harry’s insides. He swallows, clutching the record across his chest as he drops his gaze.

Maybe he shouldn’t have said that.

He frowns, mostly to himself, but doesn’t apologize. Instead, he glances up at Louis, caught between guilt and shame.

Then, at long last, Louis clears his throat.“Well, uh. I guess that says everything then, doesn’t it?” His voice sounds frail, a pale imitation of the real thing.

His eyes fall to the record again. They look shaded and tired, a little sunken, the skin beneath them delicate, bruised, and thin. Harry wonders if it’s soft like flower petals. It’d probably scrape his skin if he touched, though.

Then Louis lifts his eyes again, a cutting blue that Harry feels in his throat.

“Goodbye, Harry.”

Summary: Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson are the bane of each other’s existences. Unfortunately, they’re already in love–even if they aren’t completely aware of this minor detail. [A “You’ve Got Mail” AU]

Fic: As You Are - COMPLETE!!!

Harry/Louis (Liam/Zayn) NC-17 Way too many words for the last three chapters, ~140k overall (ugh)

AU. Five years after The X Factor launched his career as a radio host and songwriter, Louis Tomlinson returns as a judge and mentor. Falling for a contestant is the last thing he needs. It’s also against his contract. The only reason Harry auditions for The X Factor is because his best mate signed the two of them up as some kind of joke. Harry doesn’t get the big deal—not until he’s faced with this season’s judges and realises that one of them used to be his desperate, impossible teenage crush.

After Hours by anonymous

Words: 26,792

Chapters: 1/1

Pairing: Harry/Louis

Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson are the bane of each other’s existences.

Unfortunately, they’re already in love—even if they aren’t completely aware of this minor detail.

This. Fic. Is. My. New. Obsession.

Basically, I didn’t know I needed a You’ve Got Mail AU in my life until I saw this fic in the Valentine’s Day Exchange, and then I was just thinking to myself, this must be what heaven feels like.

Seriously though, if you’ve never seen the movie, you’re missing out. Both that and this fic gave me chest pains.

Enjoy! xx -M

THE BEST OF: TXF HARRY/LOUIS FIC

If I missed one, let me know. TXF fic is my jam!

The Fear You Won’t Fall by decisionsandrevisions

He’s getting to the point where every time he cracks a joke, he’s looking out of the corner of his eye to see if Louis finds it funny. He tries to keep a mental catalogue of every polo he wears that Louis reaches out and touches. He wants Louis to keep a mental catalogue too.

Harry’s journey in realizing that Louis may be just as besotted over him as he is over Louis. X Factor Era, naturally.

nonstop earthquake dreams of you by lumineres

And there’s heat behind it, blazing, plasmatic, like stars crashing together, like an explosion in space, like a supernova, like a black hole—everything else sucked out of existence. There’s no bed and there’s no pillow and they’re not lying down, just floating somewhere, somehow, and there’s no room and there’s no X Factor house and there’s no Niall snuffling or Liam’s deep, even breathing and there’s no wind or traffic outside and there’s no hum of the heating unit and it’s all just Louis. All encompassingly Louis.

or, harry falls hard and finds louis already at the bottom

you want a love song by eleadore

If it’s not too much to ask.

This is My Love Song to You by lizzieemariee

It’s the X-Factor 2010; a story of Louis and Harry falling in love, and all the little moments in-between.

love it when you twitch by siempre

They’re on the second week of the X Factor tour when Louis discovers Harry really likes being ordered around in bed. (X Factor era fic)

There Have Been a Lot of Interruptions for You and Me by taking_sweet_time

Louis and Harry almost kiss four times. They try again a fifth.

In other words, a lot of run-on prose with nothing spoken.

nothing safe is worth the drive by piginawig

Harry feels transparent and like everything he’s feeling is written on his forehead for Louis to read – you’re cute and I want to know you and I hope you feel whatever this is too.

we’re gonna conquer dragons by queenmcgonagall

Louis’s eyes are blue blue blue and Harry’s drunk and just wants to hold his hand. The boys play truth or dare at the bungalow.

phosphenes by lumineres

Phosphenes n. the stars and colors you see when you rub your eyes.

“I miss you, Lou.” Harry says. “’M right here.” Louis answers.

Have You Coming Back Again by whoknows ( crazyupsetter )

It’s five o’clock in the morning. Louis has a lecture at half eight. He could be using this time to study or to do his readings or to go to the gym, but - well. He doesn’t have any exams coming up, he’s not going to his seminar today anyway and he hates the gym.

Instead he’s using this time to fuck with Harry Styles’ poor little brain.

Louis jogs across the street and jabs the key into the car door. It opens easily, not that he was expecting anything else. He copied the key for a reason, after all.

He’s got Harry’s schedule memorised, more because the guy keeps following him around than anything, so he doesn’t bother looking around before climbing behind the wheel and setting his bag on the passenger seat. It’s a Monday, which means that Harry doesn’t even get out of bed before noon unless he’s planning on harassing Louis.
