beg me silently by nouies for @falsegoodnight harry/louis | explicit | 2k words
-
“So, your boyfriend…is he planning a magic night for you at home?”
Louis snorts. “He’s not, actually. He’s pretty hardworking, you see, so he comes home late.”
“Such a shame.” Harry walks towards Louis, so close that they’re sharing the same space. “You’re so beautiful, Louis. If you were mine, I wouldn’t make you wait for me.”
title: only guilty of loving you author: sweetrevenge / @cocoalou words: 22,110 rating: mature
After Harry gets set up with his co-worker’s alpha friend Louis, he’s expecting some pleasant conversation, free dinner, and maybe a new friend. What he doesn’t expect, however, is that Louis’ arrival in his life begins a life of crime Harry never knew he had in him.
A You’ve Got Mail!AU with a twist.
Written for the @omegaharryficfest and inspired by You’ve Got Mail bc I am a sucker for a cliché.

Our Lives, Non-fiction (The Rival Authors! AU) by: indiaalphawhiskey art by @twopoppies
Rating: Explicit Fandom: One Direction (Band) Relationships: Marcel/Louis Tomlinson Additional Tags: Alternate Universe, Harry Styles is Marcel, Rival Authors, Enemies to Lovers, Loss of Virginity, First Time, Blow Jobs, Sexting, Dirty Talk, Kink Exploration, Panties, Consensual Name Calling, Mentions of Rough Sex, Barebacking, Rimming, Fooling Around in Public, Masturbation, Awkward Sex Chapters: 3/3 Word Count: 113,574 Heralded as the next Neil Gaiman, Louis Tomlinson does not appreciate being told that his very serious novel is in dire need of a PR boost. Even worse, that it comes in the form of a joint book tour with the UK’s #1 online romance-writing sensation Marcel Styles. Already turbulent at best, their partnership takes a drastic turn when, overly stressed about his looming deadline, Marcel accidentally blurts out a secret: though he’s famed for his scorching hot literary love scenes, he is, actually, a virgin.
Convinced that the only way to rid himself of writer’s block is to gain some experience, Marcel asks Louis, author-to-author, to sleep with him – for Science. And of course Louis agrees because, well, what on Earth could possibly go wrong?
Or, a lesson in romance that proves that sometimes the best love stories aren’t always by the book.

Hi! I was wondering if you could rec some office romances? Thank you so much. :)
I think I’m lacking in office romances, but I definitely have a bunch of good ones where they work together (just not necessarily in an office). I hope that works for you!
I’ve Been Hoping You’d Be Somewhere Better Than This by runaway_train / @runaway-train-works (E, 40K) I love a fic where they’re thrown together for work and both cannot get along and cannot resist each other. This one is really fun and really hot and definitely worth a read. Plus, it’s part one of a 4-part series (which I haven’t yet read, but I’m looking forward to doing it soon)!
no pressure, no diamonds by karamelised (E, 43K) A thief and a grifter have a past, but also have to work together. This fic is SO good – really fun, original story, great characterizations, crazy hot smut…plus, there’s a prequel and a sequel so….what are you waiting for?
Close to Nowhere by @angelichl (E, 35K) I really enjoyed the unique story and the way Harry and Louis relate to each other in this one. It’s fun and quirky and sexy and keeps you on the edge until the end. Definitely worth checking out. Both Harry and Louis are psychics stuck working together on a case.
Love Is A Rebellious Bird by 100percentsassy, gloria_andrews / @gloriaandrews (E, 135K) Everything about this fic is glorious. I’m always struck by how well the characters are fleshed out, how their behavior lines up with their backstory, how ridiculously hot the chemistry is, and how agonizing the angst is. So yes, no shocker, I cried buckets. Thank god for a happy ending. Conductor Harry. Concertmaster Louis.
You Always Make Me Smile by champagneboyband (E, 60K, WIP) Yes, it’s a WIP. I’m listing it because the hope that someday it will be updated gives me the will to live. But also because even as a WIP this fic has everything I love. The characters are multi-faceted, the sexual chemistry is off the charts, the background story is complex enough to give the story numerous possibilities for angst and everything else. WHY MUST IT REMAIN A WIP??? Chef Harry and TV producer Louis meet as they work on a reality show together.
our little corner of the world by brownheadedstranger (E, 30K) This fic reads like original fiction in the best sort of way. Come to think of it, I should have added it to my Locations rec because the whole fic makes you feel like you’re stuck in the hot, dusty little town along with the boys. It’s beautifully written – slow and wistful – and I really need to re-read it now that I think of it! Line cook Harry / diner worker Louis.
Etched in Salt (is a cathedral of the world) by @helloamhere (E, 24K - FBI) I’ve recc’d this fic a few times, but here I go again. It’s that good. You all know I love this author’s writing –– this time she gives us a dark, American, thriller with a bit of psychic goodness. Psychic / telempath Louis and FBI agent Harry work on a case together.
everything that shine ain’t always gonna be gold by sarcasticfluentry (E, 49K) You don’t need to know anything about the movie that inspired this fic (it’s an Inception AU). What you do need to know is that it’s got great OT5, it’s super sexy, it’s got a terrific story line, and the pacing is just right for a nail biter. Extractor Harry and Louis hate each other, but have to work together to solve a case.
Take My Breath Away by @realitybetterthanfiction (E, 154K) I’m grouping the navy fics together I guess! Also known as the Top Gun fic, this one is told from Harry’s POV, and is such a wonderful, intimate characterization – you really get to see so many sides of him and this author writes them all so well. The fic is action packed, funny, sexy, deeply moving, and has such a satisfying ending. Naval flight instructor Louis. Navy pilot Harry.
So Darling, Just Say You’ll Stay Right By My Side by supernope (E, 28K) Another fic I read too long ago to recall details of, and my rather unhelpful notes read, “LOVE! Slow build up, but so sexy!” So…here’s to trusting old me. I’m not too worried, this author is pretty sure bet. Chief of police Louis. Deputy Harry.
Sometimes Fires Don‘t Go Out by abrighteryellow / @a-brighter-yellow (E, 17K) I love this fic. The quirky friendships, the banter, the secret crush, the banter…it’s such a fun read with a really satisfying conclusion. The boys work together in a record store.
Don’t Want Shelter by kingsofeverything (FullOnLarrie) / @kingsofeverything (E, 77K) This isn’t exactly an office romance, but I love this fic and I’m stretching the category because it’s worth it. This author does such a good job of creating these characters and their years-long dislike for each other that when they’re forced to work and live together and confront their behavior, the emotions feel so realistic and you’re just rooting for them to figure it all out. Such a great read (plus, “older” Larry, which is such a rare treat in this fandom).
Like An Endless Summer by objectlesson (E, 87K) If you’re a camp counselor, then summer camp is your office, therefore this one works here. And there are so many thing I loved – from the camp setting, to the trope of Harry returning to camp older and hotter, to the way the other boys filter in and out of the story, to the way the author writes the emotions and overwhelm, to the hot af smut. It’s just a great read (this fic has been deleted, so the link is to a download).
As Golden As The Coast by darkerwings (M, 13K) I read this one ages ago and don’t recall a lot of detail except I thought it was sweet and sexy and all the boys are elementary school teachers. Good times!
These Inconvenient Fireworks by mdasch & everydayslike (NC17, 190K) somehow this fic feels like it birthed the fandom’s love of fic. Did anything exist before TIF? I’m joking. I‘m sure there were great fics before this one. But there’s something about this one that feels special. It’s incredibly funny, the smut is super hot, the characterizations all work so well, the OT5 friendships are perfect, and it has great banter. Louis is a high school drama teacher, Harry is the new assistant PE coach.
The Night We Met
Title: The Night We Met
Author: VanillaWeathers
Length: 62k
Summary: Louis’ world is one etched in blues and greys. It’s one set apart from the city, because where there is chaos and the blinding city lights, there is calm and a world of bleakness right across the same plank. Louis’s right there, with sweaty hands and a heart of anguish, cut away from where the world screams loud. Where disappointments pile and hearts bleed.
Until a stranger walks into his pub one day, with a smile that traces hope and words that resonate change. The world watches in anticipation.
hi! do you have any masturbation fic recommendation? solo or not is ok. thank you!
Hi sugar. I do. I have almost 50 fics where it’s tagged, probably some more that aren’t. But I’ll try to give you a bunch where it’s a bit more of a focus.
Only Write By The Moon by orphan_account (E, 5K) This is basically pure smut, but this author has such a beautiful way with words…even smut sounds poetic.
Talk Dirty To Me by BriaMaria / @briannamarguerite (E, 13K) So….dirty talk is one of my favorite things in a fic. And when it’s done well it’s…god, it’s so, so good. And this fic does it so well. It’s simultaneously funny, and tender, and incredibly sexy. Dirty talk, friends to lovers, uni AU…what more could you ask for? Great writing? Yeah, got that too. Go read it!
We'll Be Seamless by @dinosaursmate (E, 52K) Inspired by Tumblr (back in the days when porn was actually allowed), this one is filled with super sexy teasing and flirting.
daddy daddy cool by sky_reid (E, 7K) This author always writes super smutty smut and this one is no exception. If daddy kink isn’t your thing, skip this one. But if it is…man it’s good.
Nothing but Time on His Dirty Hands Hands by YesIsAWorld / @louandhazaf (E, 2K) Sexy little fantasy solo wanking fic with famous Louis/not famous Harry.
See Clearly Now by Awriterwrites / @a-writerwrites (E, 12K) A 5 times fic where the boys are uni roommates. A little voyeurism, a lot of flirting, and some sexy smut at LAST!
Watermelon Sugar High by @rosemarianthyme (E, 2K) I’ve only recently discovered this author but I love what I’ve read so far and this one is….wow. So incredibly sexy. I love the way they write about kink, in general, and gender play in this one. So good!
give me forever for a while by mercutionotromeo (E, 5K) This one involves a collar, but in a slightly different way – this time it’s kitten play. I always love the way this author writes their smut and this one is full of dirty talk and soft dom Louis using Harry.
Public Display of Erection by @dinosaursmate (E, 2K) Sexy little uni AU one shot. Voyeurism involving new neighbors. Sexy times ahead!
Alone Apart, Alone Together by bkljt (E, 3K) I always love phone sex fics (mostly because I love dirty talk in fics), and this one happens to also have lovely writing and the added tension of H/L being in a currently “undefined” relationship.
Take Our Bodies Higher by littlelouishiccups (E, 21K) Louis finally find someone who shares his kinks. It happens to be phone sex operator Harry. So much dirty talk. So much desperation. So, so good.
precious little thing by mercutionnotromeo (E, 21K) I’ve read this one so many times…it’s got it all. This time the phone sex operator is Louis, and subby Harry is just beginning to realize his daddy kink.
highway to hell by karamelised (E, 3K) This is the fifth part of a 5-part series, all of which are great. But this is the one that’s focused on masturbation and phone sex, to be exact. This author always writes super sexy smut... have fun!
let's talk about making love by istajmaal (E, 25K) Oh, phone sex operator fics, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
Lights off, Lights on by @dinosaursmate (E, 3K) Another uni AU with voyeurism and masturbation. But this time they’re also roommates. That’s right, And they were roommates!
the bearded stranger by juliusschmidt (E, 2K) This is a wild twist on strangers to lovers and it’s fun and funny and really kind of hot.
got my eyes on you by eleadore (E, 3K) Harry and Louis are wanking buddies. Need I say more?
Talk Dirty When You Talk To Me by my_fandom_OTPs (E, 8K) This one was written ages ago, so the characterizations are a bit dated, but I always love phone sex and wrong number AUs. Give it a shot.
Never Mind the Furthermore by Anonymous (E, 7K) I’m always a sucker for phone sex and dirty talk, plus throw in pining Harry and I’m sold! Loved the light way this is written and the well done OT5 friendship.
'cause lately i've been waking up alone by sarcasticfluentry (E, 6K) I love the way this author writes smut and banter, so this is one of my faves. Plus, Harry makes a clone-a-willy of himself as a gift.
Another Day Gettin' Into Trouble by whoknows (E, 26K) what would this fandom be without two clone-a-willy fics? I haven’t read this one in years, but my notes say it was tender and sexy and I really liked the characterizations so...
down on your knees, you don't look so tall by writtensoul (E, 3K) Not my favorite characterization of Harry, but the dirty talk is super hot and I do enjoy a wanking buddies fic now and then.

Château de Versailles. “You don’t love me,” Louis had said, utterly blasé as he callously fractured the heart of a Harry that was just barely eighteen. “I do,” Harry had insisted pleadingly, green eyes already watering. Louis had rolled his eyes, exasperated and flippant in the way only beautiful, young boys could be when faced with the affections of a baby prince. He had run his finger down Harry’s cheek then, had forced him to look into his eyes as he delivered the final blow. “You’ll change your mind once you’ve seen more of the world,” Louis had teased, pressing a brutally delicate kiss onto Harry’s lovely, pure cheek. “Once you’ve been properly defiled.” He had whispered filthily, delighted by the gasp he heard, the frantic pink blush that had rested high on Harry’s cheeks, the power he had felt at knowing he could make the Crown Prince squirm. Written for 31 Days of Smut, Day 13.

✰ Don’t Let It (Me) Break | E | b!L | 169k - (exes to lovers; chaptered, difficult topics (check tags please!!), very self-insert/therapeutic for me, + angsty/slowburn; dual pov)
The one where Harry is oblivious, Louis is broken, Zayn and Liam are in love, Gemma and Lottie are lovely, and Niall is just waiting for everyone to get their shit together.
And it’s all Malcolm’s fault
*other note: this fic is completely unedited + a mess but it still means a lot to me and some people so i won’t get rid of it <3
✰ my love’s not simple (it’s fragile) | E | b!L | a/b/o | 28k - (college au; new relationships, balancing busy schedules, a little bit of angst, alpha harry/omega louis, fraternities, + basketball player harry; harry pov) [fic post]
Harry’s new job is threatened by his impending rut. Desperate for a solution, he allows Niall to introduce him to Louis, an omega whose heat begins the same day. They click.
✰ before we knew | E | b!L | 40k - (soulmate au; medium d/s, pining louis, stubborn harry, lawyer harry, editor louis, friends to lovers, ignoring feelings, + angst; louis pov) [fic post]
Louis has been skeptical of soulmates for years so it seems like fate when he finally bumps into the owner of the obnoxiously large signature printed into his skin since age sixteen: Harry Styles, a human rights attorney who is firmly against soulmates.
✰ in a world alone | E | b!L | a/b/o | 51k - (swan lake au; slow burn, fantasy/magic, royalty, historical au, very soft/fairytale-esque, alpha harry/omega louis, more plot focused, a bit of angst; mostly harry pov) [fic post]
Harry’s breath catches as the glow grows bigger and bigger until he’s squinting his eyes and blinking at the sudden intense brightness. He closes his eyes, rubbing at them helplessly. When his eyes open again- he gasps, grip loosening on his bow as he gawks at the sight before him.
Because the swan is gone.
And in its place is the prettiest omega Harry has ever seen
✰ move so pretty (you’re all i see) | E | b!L | 11k - (pwp; roommates, friends to lovers, mutual pining, medium d/s, filthy smut, a bit of angst, vet harry, librarian louis; harry pov) [fic post]
Harry’s pretty content with his life. He loves his job- a veterinarian at a local clinic who’s already built up a name for himself despite his young age. He loves his gorgeous flat with its wide, open space and minimalistic, yet still homey feel. He loves his family who he talks to and visits as much as possible, not bothered by the long hours of driving to Holmes Chapel from London he endures multiple times a month. He loves his friends and his coworkers and his neighbors- especially Allison, the little old lady next door who brings him and Louis cookies on holidays and who always comments on how “strong and handsome you are, Mr. Styles,” everytime he sees her.
And most importantly, he loves Louis, just- maybe in a slightly different way.
✰ sleeping on our problems | E | b!L | a/b/o | 67k - (college mpreg au; alpha harry/omega louis, frat boy harry, hockey player harry, ballet dancer louis, friends with benefits, denial of feelings, d/s elements, really soft, some angst; mostly louis pov) [fic post]
Louis sleeps with Harry and they have more than just catching feelings to worry about.

There’s two reasons Harry despises Econ.
The first is that it’s boring as fuck. The second reason is a bit more personal, a bit more focused in a way. As in it’s focused on one specific thing, or in his case, person.
His name is Louis Tomlinson.
✰ call you mine | E | b!L | 13k - (pwp; vampire harry, dom/sub undertones, blood drinking, part 1 of love bites; harry pov) {fic post}

Nothing But You On My Mind by nonsensedarling (@absoloutenonsense) Words: 83,261 // Rating: Explicit
“What do you even have to be fuming about, hm? Not looking like an incompetent dickwad? So sorry it ruins your image, Prince Harry Edward Styles, of being so sex-crazed there isn’t room in your brain for anything meaningful.”
The Prince finally looks at him. He’s fuming so badly, Louis can practically taste the smoke coming out of his ears. “You. Don’t. Know. Me,” he spits out.
“And I don’t want to,” Louis answers, making unwavering eye-contact. The Prince looks away again and stares harshly out the window. Louis leans back and crosses his arms as well, looks out his own window as he says, “Eleven days. And they can’t come quick enough.”

Ever Since I Tried Your Way by Anonymous [25k]
Harry had been kissed before, but never like this.
He’d shared sweet, curious kisses behind bleachers and in soda shop booths, one or two more daring ones in cars parked on dark suburban streets, but the girls he’d kissed had never filled him with the desperation that erupted from Louis’ touch. He parted his lips and pulled him closer, as though he could breathe Louis straight into his lungs, as if he could swallow him. He wanted to consume Louis the way he consumed the body and blood of Christ. He wanted to place Louis on his tongue and feel him dissolve into a frothy mess of starch and saliva. He wanted to gulp him down until his teeth were stained purple and he was drunk on him. He wanted him in some violent holy way that made his hands shake where they were twisted in Louis’ shirt.
In 1949 Harry left his bride at the altar, running away from the only life he’d known. When a kindhearted farmer offers him a ride in his truck and a place to sleep the two find themselves inexplicably drawn together. Isolated on Louis’ farm with nobody but a field of dairy cows to intrude, the men are finally able to explore the parts of themselves they’ve spent their lives hiding away.
❤️ Please reblog this post! If you give this fic a read, don’t forget to leave kudos and/or a comment! Thank you ❤️
Hi! I hope you are okay! Can I ask you if you know any fics when they’re dating in secret? Maybe acting like friends or enemies or whatever.If you’ve already done a list could you tell me where I can find it,please? Thank you in advance x
Oooh. I love that trope. Thanks for the ask! I think most of these are more “relationship hidden from the outside world” as opposed to hidden from their friends, but some have that, too.
sensitive to pressure by momentofclarity / @gaycousinlarry (E, 4K) This is so well written and so sexy (and filthy in the best kind of way). I love the overwhelm and the heady rush of a secret relationship. So much captured in so few words.
Sodalite & Aventurine by @forreveries (E, 81K) Gay pirate adventure that’ll keep you on the edge of your seat until the end. Amazing chemistry, great world building, super sexy smut, and beautiful writing. Do yourself a favor and read it!
Snips & Snails by aimmyarrowshigh (M, 2K) This short little fic is absolute poetry and packs so much into its less than 2,000 words. It’s tender and heartbreaking and so worth a read.
wings to break your fall by karamelised (E, 103K) Well. This author writes some glorious smut and Harry giving Louis a private dance wearing a pair of angel wings should be reason enough to read this. However, it’s also just fun and well written and has a little hate to love and I’m a fan.
Learning to Breathe by youcomecrash (E, 110K) I read this one a really long time ago and my notes are not terribly helpful (good angst, good first time smut 😆) But I generally love a good uni AU, so...check this one out!
Fall Into Your Gravity by zarah5 (E, 74K) I just love everything this author gave us. This one is sweet and funny and very sexy. In addition to a secret relationship, we also get famous/not famous. Two for one!
My English Love Affair by isthatyoularry (E, 19K) Oh, this one has some really good angst and some really good smut and lovely writing and I’ve read it a few times and you should read it at LEAST once!
As You Are by zarah5 (E, 139K) Again, great author who always delivers. This time it’s Louis as Radio 1 DJ and XFactor judge and Harry as (an adult) contestant. It also has some super sexy flirting and smut as well as a great Narry bros friendship side story.
Unbelievers by isthatyoularry (E, 137K) Oooh, this one is so good. High school Au, footie, enemies with benefits, so much sexual tension (and just tension), and complex characters. Another one I’ve read more than once.
In Vogue by otpwhatever / @thecelineharry (M, 121K) This one is just….so much. The intensity of the characters, the crazy hot smut (oh god, the window scene), the FASHION, the angst (I had to take a walk around the block after reading it), the epic love story between two men who could rule the world if they could just figure their shit out.
And down the long and silent street by whimsicule (M, 86K) Set in Victorian England, part of what makes drives the plot is both the class structure of that time period. The romance here is not only between two men, but between men of very different classes – which only adds to the tension of the already intense subplot. This author always writes with great depth and the detail of the setting feels spot on.
won’t you wear my watermark by @bottomlinsons (E, 90K) I’m not done reading this one yet, but I do really like this author’s fics in general. It’s a regency era soulmate fic, so like the one above, much of the plot tension is due to the way people viewed homosexuality in that time. It’s beautifully written and very sexy.
Hi! Think I’ve probably read most of them, but would you be able to recommend any omega Harry fics? Thank you! Have a great day. 🥰💕 - (new) M lol xx
I was just thinking about you, M. LOL! Glad to be able to separate you from the “old” M (who never messages me here anyway). So… here’s what I’ve got for you in the way of Omega Harry fics. Hopefully you have’t read all of them!
do you know me by heart by HappyPrincess / @pattern-pals (E, 7K) Read the tags on this one because it’s really visceral, raw, and real. The writing was intense in the best of ways, but this is not a fluffy fic.
i cannot reach your heart by HappyPrincess / @pattern-pals (E, 10K) This is the second part to the one just above and it’s equally as well written, and has just a hint more happiness for these characters.
A Distant Hazy Light by green_feelings / @greenfeelings (E, 77K) Although this fic is complete, it’s part one of a planned 3-part series and I haven’t yet finished this first part yet! However, I always enjoy this author’s writing and the beginning of this is unique and sexy and I’m enjoying it very much…so I’m including this and am looking forward to the next parts!
a body wishes to be held & held by turnyourankle (E, 9K) I really liked the way this was set up with each of them helping each other through their heat/rut in different ways. Plus, I’m a fan of dirty talk so…
through the wire by Awriterwrites / @a-writerwrites (E, 11K) So this is Larry + Liam, but it’s a very different way to write a threesome. And I just appreciated how awkward, but endearing, Liam is in this one. Plus, this author always writes excellent smut.
kiss with a fist (is better than none) by orphan_account (E, 7K) Although it’s been orphaned, it was originally written by Ashtarok whose work I always have liked. I really enjoyed the dynamic in this one and the smut is top notch.
breathe into your well by turnyourankle (E, 5K) Just a short and sexy one shot with Larry meeting at a rut bar.
Seeing Blind by zedi (E, 47K) I really liked the way this author gave a twist to both Omega Harry and Alpha Louis’ characteristics. It’s a whole lot of smut and miscommunication and, of course, a happy ending.
When The Wolves Come Out by @rosemarianthyme (E, 2K) This is actually ABO roleplay and it’s seriously super sexy and such a unique concept. There’s a second, equally good, work in this series as well.
I also want to suggest that you check out @bottomharrykingdom om because they probably have a tag for omega Harry fics and I’m sure there are way more there than what I’ve read!

Blindsided and scrambling to save face, Louis lets herself get talked into a fake relationship with her new friend Harry. Their arrangement makes Louis feel pathetic and embarrassed, but it’s only going to last a few weeks. She just has to get through the wedding – what could happen?
🐦 live show by @hereforlou (3k) Part of of this amazing series the au where they’re still famous musicians and harry’s spoiled and they have two dogs
Keeping his eyes on himself, Harry leans his weight against one elbow and spreads his right hand over where his heart is pounding. His fingers look long, his palm huge as he slides it down to his belly as slowly as he can. He practised in front of the mirror earlier, but it’s not the same as seeing the slightly grainy picture on the screen, knowing that Louis is watching him, too.
(Or, the one where they video chat.)
🐦 let me carry your weight by @soldouthaz (28k) please read the tags / author’s notes
louis is fresh out of a bad relationship with someone who made him feel awful about how he looked. on his journey to better himself, he meets harry - the ridiculously attractive and fit personal trainer.
🐦 gathered on wings by @twopoppies (32k) Artists AU / Hot smut
As Harry lay by Louis’ side, covered in sweat and come, he knew he should feel ugly, messy, ruined, like the life he’d left behind. But something about the way Louis looked at him, the way his eyes stared at him with want and awe, made Harry wonder if he’d ever feel this beautiful again.
Harry rolled his eyes at himself for his momentary romantic dreaminess. As good as this was, he knew it was nothing more than sex. He literally couldn’t afford to fall for just anyone, no matter how fit they were.
What Harry Styles wanted was to be taken seriously as an artist. What he needed was a new sugar daddy to pave the way. Louis Tomlinson is an artist who isn’t what Harry is looking for. Somehow he still manages to turn Harry’s world upside down.
🐦 You Left all your Dreams on the Threshing Floor by @londonfoginacup (26k) Marcel AU / Tenacious Louis / Friends to Lovers
Marcel will go home after work and he’ll clean his vest and he’ll bleach his shirt and tomorrow will be a new day. He’s got other things that he can spend his time focusing on. How to fit in a third quote onto the cover of the fall issue of Mod Mag without covering any details in the model’s face, for instance.
Maybe he’ll switch to gluten-free banana bread for the meeting on Friday. He knows some co-workers likes to eat gluten free, at least. Someone will have to accept his friendship advances eventually.
They’ll have to.
Right?
Louis Tomlinson gets a job at Mod Magazine. He’s quickly drawn to the one person in the office who won’t give him (or anyone) the time of day; Marcel Styles, Senior Layout Editor.
🐦 You Drive Me Wild by @jacaranda-bloom (5k) Part of the @wankersday
Most people would think that keeping a tube of lube hidden behind the driver’s side visor of their car is foolish and completely unnecessary, but then most people don’t have to chauffeur Louis Tomlinson around for a living.
OR the one where Harry has a brilliant idea to while away the time as he waits around for his boss but fate decides to rain on his parade… or maybe it’s the universe answering his prayers.
🐦 It’s not what it looks like… by @kingsofeverything (2k) Part of the @wankersday
Quarantine allows Harry the time to improve his sewing skills, thanks to the face masks he makes for friends and family. Proud of his work, he posts a picture on Instagram, but it’s not what it looks like.

Chapter Two Now On AO3
chapter one | chapter two | chapter three | chapter four
(the fic is finished, I’ll be updating regularly)
Hi Gina! Hope you're well. Would you be able to do a roundup of the most iconic, classic fics, the ones which are simply renowned in this fandom, like as soon as you say the name, everyone knows what you're talking about? As someone who is newer to the fandom, it often feels like I'm on the outside and I don't get the inside jokes and references to the prestigious 'hall of fame' fics. Ahh it's like I have a decade of things to catch up on and I'll never get there. Thanks so much!!
Oh boy. Ok…I think so. Let me start with a caveat: classics don’t always hold up over time, although most of these do IMO. Also, if you have concerns about any of the untagged one, please ask! Having said all of that, I don’t think there’s actually an agreed upon list, and I’m sure I’ll end up leaving some out (or putting some in that others disagree with), but here’s my best shot.
Love Is A Rebellious Bird by 100percentsassy, gloria_andrews / @gloriaandrews
AU in which the boys still make music. Louis is the concertmaster of the London Symphony Orchestra, Harry is the New! and Exciting! interim conductor/ex-cello prodigy who “has made Mozart cool again” according to Esquire Magazine (Louis hates him immediately, which is definitely why he internet stalked him in his dark bedroom late at night that one time), and Niall is the best. Zayn and Liam are around too.
Don’t hum Bolero.
Wild And Unruly by 100percentsassy, gloria_andrews / @gloriaandrews (E, 124K)
Harry is a cowboy sitting on the biggest oil reservoir in Wyoming, and Louis is the paralegal assigned to pressure him into selling his land.
Pull Me Under by zarah5 (E, 140K)
AU. As the first British footballer to come out at the prime of his career, it helps that Louis Tomlinson is in a long-term, committed relationship. Even if that relationship is fake. (Featuring Niall as Louis’ favourite teammate, Liam as Louis’ agent, and Zayn as Liam’s boyfriend, who just happens to be good friends with one Harry Styles.)
Into The Blue by Zarah5 (E, 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.
Young & Beautiful by velvetoscar (M, 227K)
Louis, to his horror, attends an elitist university in which the name Zayn Malik means something, Niall Horan doesn’t stop talking, there are pianos everywhere, and Harry Styles, only son of a drug-addled, clinically insane ex-rocker, has a perfect smile and empty eyes.
Wear It Like A Crown by zarah5 (E, 141K)
AU. As part of a team of fixers hired to handle a gay scandal in Buckingham Palace, Louis expects Prince Harry to be a lot of things—most notably a royally spoilt brat. Never mind that the very same Prince Harry used to star in quite a number of Louis’ teenage fantasies.
Empty Skies by green_feelings / @greenfeelings (E, 134K)
For three years, Harry has been running from his past. Now, he is moving to London and pledges to fulfil his only dream – making it big in the music industry. Not everyone has a place, though, and the competition is tough. As is his past catching up on him.
Louis is part of the biggest boy band of the world, and getting there had meant a lot of hard work, as well as sacrificing parts of his heart and soul. He’s still happy. Maybe not as happy as he could be, but who is he to complain?
Featuring Perrie as Harry’s adorable flatmate, Niall as his manager, and Liam and Zayn as Louis’ bandmates.
Escapade by dolce_piccante (M, 146K)
In the grand scheme of things, finding a date for a wedding should be no problem for Louis Tomlinson. He’s rich. He’s handsome. He’s reasonably well behaved. But when the wedding is for his lifelong best friend (and former boyfriend), and is happening in under a month, finding a date for the ceremony and accompanying festivities becomes more of an adventure than he ever could have planned for.
You’ll Breathe Me In (You Won’t Release) by LoadedGunn (E, 95K)
His first driving lesson with Louis takes place on a Saturday.
Harry stumbles out through the front gate in thrown-on baggy jeans and his ratty Ramones shirt, sees Louis leaning casually against the car, and his knees nearly give out. Apparently “not another surly teacher” meant a drop dead gorgeous twenty-something scruffy guy with shaggy brown hair and cheekbones sharp enough to chop a salad with. Clearly, Robin’s trying to get Harry killed at seventeen.
Or, the AU where Louis is a 25-year-old driving instructor and Harry is a 17-year-old virgin who’s really awful at seduction, except for the time he gets Louis to fall for him and fuck him senseless and take him on kinky adventures.
You Are The Blood by sarcasticfluentry (E, 175K)
A seventh-year Hogwarts AU in which Niall gets all the girls, Liam goes on a journey of self-discovery, Zayn falls in love, Harry wants something more, and Louis tries to figure out once and for all why he, a Muggleborn, was sorted into Slytherin.
Red Brick Heart by hazmesentir (E, 98K)
Harry has only had his room for thirty-two minutes when it stops being his.
Uni AU. Harry had turned up at the halls of residence expecting fun, new friends, and maybe a life experience or two. What he doesn’t expect is a surprise roommate who’s loud and dramatic and obsessed with tea and is maybe, actually, all he’s ever wanted.
Relief Next To Me by dolce_piccante (M, 334K)
AU. What happens when a baker and a graphic designer meet via a very specific Craigslist post? Fate, friendship, food, and maybe more.
No One Does It Better by nodibs (E, 50K)
Harry’s an alcoholic and Louis is a bartender. The first time they meet isn’t the first time they’ve met.
another hazy may by deLILAh (M, 41K)
louis is a terrible poet and harry lives in the now and they have six weeks to fall in love but, really, it only takes six seconds. bookshop meets military meets summer romance au ft. marlboros, the backstreet boys, and underrated literary devices.
we’ll play hide and seek to turn this love around (give me love like never before) by wankrville (E, 20K, part 1 of the strawberry milk series)
“So here’s the thing,” he starts. “I didn’t mean what I said a few weeks ago to like, hurt your feelings or anything. If you like painting your nails, then you should do that, and not like, care if anyone else doesn’t like it because their opinions shouldn’t matter, you know?” Louis takes a breath, finally glancing over to see the boy wide-eyed and pink-cheeked. On a whim, he adds, “And like, I noticed you scraping it off and you haven’t been wearing any and I think you should because that’s what you like.”
or an au where harry paints his nails and drinks strawberry milk and is too nervous for it to be nothing and louis’ just trying to figure out whats wrong with him
my heart is breathing for this moment in time by usedtothebeach (E, 160K)
When Louis first saw Harry at the 2010 X Factor Auditions, he thought he was watching a peculiarly special stranger. But Harry has known Louis ever since he was five years old.
Because Louis has a rare genetic disorder that causes him to Time Travel to important moments in his past and in his future - and to Harry, always to Harry. When they’re put into a band together, it seems like everything Harry has been waiting and wishing for has finally come true. Except for the small fact that Louis doesn’t know that Harry is in love with him- that Harry’s always been in love with him. Fate, it would seem, is just getting started.
A story about growing up and growing together, and the impossible love that makes it all worthwhile.
These Inconvenient Fireworks by mdasch & everydayslike (NC17, 190K)
“Future AU in which nobody tries out for X Factor but the boys end up finding one other eventually anyway. Louis is a jaded bastard who owns a cat named Duchess and teaches drama to teenagers, Harry is an idealistic aspiring photographer/part-time footy coach, Zayn teaches English lit and wears leather jackets, Liam saves people from burning buildings, and Niall is Niall.”
Speaking of Marvels by navigator, quitter (E, 101K)
AU. Louis is a nanny in suburban New Jersey, and the neighbors’ son is home from college for the summer. It was supposed to be a fling.
And Then A Bit by infintelymint (E, 159K)
“We’d like to give the fans what they want.” Magee states, placing his hand on the table in front of him and leaning forward. “We want to give them Larry Stylinson.”
Or, take a parallel universe where Louis and Harry were never together, mix in a two year hiatus and an impending comeback, pour in a dash of lost fans, two tablespoons of strong friendship and a Modest! employee with a good idea. Add a squeeze of pretending to be a couple, lots of kisses and a tattoo or two. Stir. Serve: the mother of all publicity stunts.
(aka Harry and Louis fake a relationship for publicity. Eventually it becomes a lot less fake and a lot more real.)
The Dead of July by whimsicule (M, 117K)
Being an Avenger means continuing to be Captain America and smiling and being honorable for the public and Harry does his best. But it doesn’t give him time to figure out who he is supposed to be once he takes off his uniform and puts the shield to the side. Just being Harry had always involved Louis, and Harry fears he doesn’t know how to exist without him.
or: Harry is Captain America, and Louis’ been dead for 70 years.
My English Love Affair by isthatyoularry (E, 19K)
The thing about sleeping with a member of a famous indie band is that the inevitability of having a song written about you is most likely a hundred percent. The second thing is that in the end, nobody’s supposed to find out it’s about you.
The one where Harry writes a song about his English love affair and Louis sleeps with someone in White Eskimo and all he gets is a stupid song written about him.
Have You Coming Back Again by whoknows (E, 31K)
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 memorized, 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.
Unbelievers by isthatyoularry (E, 137K)
It’s Louis’ senior year, and he’s dead set on doing it right. However, along with his pair of cleats, a healthy dose of sarcasm and his ridiculous best friend, he’s also got a complicated family, a terrifyingly uncertain future, and a mortal enemy making his life just that much worse. Mortal enemies “with benefits” was not exactly the plan.
Or: The one where Louis and Harry definitely aren’t friends, and football is everything.
Sing When You’re Winning by hazmesentir (NR, 91K)
Harry is fifteen minutes late to the office on the day Louis Tomlinson comes out as gay.
Or, the one where Harry’s a chronically underpaid magazine intern and Louis is the Premier League’s first gay footballer and pretty much the last thing they need is each other.
Your Name Is Tattooed On My Heart by mcpofife (E, 87K)
Louis is ready to find the love of his life, but first he has to stop falling for the punk rocker next door.
like a bastard on the burning sea by vashtaneradas (NR, 22K)
au; harry breaks louis, louis breaks everything.
things have gotten closer to the sun by starseas (M, 49K)
it’s strange, making the choice to face his past—it almost feels like he’s heading for the sun straight on, like he’s screaming come on and burn me, i deserve it.
-
when a solar flare is announced to end the world in twelve days, harry reunites with the people that he used to know better than the back of his own hand.
