The following fics were not all published in June, but are fics that we have read throughout the month. We hope you enjoy!
1. A FULLY ARMED BATTALION (TO REMIND YOU OF MY LOVE) by anonymous (5k)
“He was flirting with you by the way,” Niall says casually once he’s finished saying goodbye to Louis and he’s joined Harry outside.
“No he wasn’t,” Harry replies automatically, feeling his heart clench at the thought. Was he?
Niall simply raises a mocking eyebrow in response before wrapping his scarf twice around his neck.
“Not that it matters!” Harry says quickly, eyes widening. “I wouldn’t care even if he did because he’s awful and the worst.”
Everyone at Hogwarts knows that Professor Styles and Professor Tomlinson absolutely despise each other. It's too bad that they're in love.
2. AS DEEP AS THE SKY by swallowsmateforlife (12k)
A passed-out omega on the bathroom floor isn't exactly what Harry had in mind when he thought about taking a cute boy home. The idea of leaving Louis there, vulnerable and unresponsive, weighs guiltily at Harry's conscience. Turns out it's the best decision he'll ever make.
3. BREAK OPEN THE SKY by karamelised (20k)
Being a werewolf isn't always easy. Especially if you have no idea what you're doing.
or
Werewolf au. Harry might be a werewolf, but he still wants to experience Uni like everyone else. Turns out he learns a lot.
4. DUST ON THE ROAD. by velvetoscar (18k)
Louis is definitely fine and Lottie is definitely crushing on her French teacher, and these two things have nothing to do with each other. Except they do. And Louis is not fine.
5. IF I SHOULD STAY by anonymous (31k)
Louis is a television actor who suddenly needs a bodyguard. Harry is the bodyguard he ends up hiring.
A fic loosely based on the classic 1992 movie The Bodyguard.
6. RATED R by cherrystreet (7k)
Louis gifts Harry with a surprise sex tape, and it accidentally makes its way into Harry's family Christmas party. Ridiculousness ensues.
7. SEEING THAT SUNLIGHT HIT YOUR EYES by thecoloursneverfade (18k)
Louis follows Harry, landing on sandy beige paving that frames the pool, a sign to his left about pool safety, and Louis wants to laugh at the irony because he's going to be naked and in a pool with naked Harry and he is going to die.
The water is lit up blue, reflecting the neon lights of the motel, a light mist settling around the far edges from the early morning fog, ripples sending smoothly over the blue tiles at the bottom, and Harry is to his left, already unbuttoning his shirt, and yes, Louis is definitely going to die.
(or: uni au where the boys meet due to an overnight scavenger hunt.)
8. YOU COULD HAVE MOONLIGHT IN YOUR HANDS by anonymous (20k)
It's the usual work for Harry—with awestruck fans crowding his space, cellphone cameras in his face, and rude paparazzi loitering around in front of the building to take his pictures, his day is turning into a not-so-brilliant one. And then a beautiful man falls into his life. Literally.
The following fics were not all published in June, but are fics that we have read throughout the month. We hope you enjoy!
1. A WHOLE NEW WORLD by anonymous (24k)
Louis has moved into his new apartment to start his new job as a teacher. Things would be great. If only his arsehole neighbour didn’t wake him up every morning by playing piano.
Shenanigans ensue. Like a very inadvisable kissing bet.
2. ACHE TO KNOW THE SONG HE SUNG by anonymous (14k)
Ogling hot men is a part of his job that Louis thoroughly enjoys. That is, if the ogling hadn’t been reduced to a bare minimum the second DJ Harry Styles set foot into Funky Payno and ruined every other man for Louis, ever.
Or: Louis is a bartender and Harry is a DJ in a club in Barcelona. All they really need to do is get their shit together. Of course, that’s not what happens.
3. ALL THE RIGHT MOVES by cherrystreet (17k)
This is the third game in a row that Harry has been distracted by the noisy boy in the stands, five rows back.
There’s really no reason that he should feel compelled to stare into the audience as frequently as he is, but he can’t help it. This boy is a nuisance. And he’s loud. Even from basketball court with nine other players running by him, shoes squeaking on the shiny hardwood floor, and thousands of cheering college students, Harry can hear this boy nearly shrieking, his laugh more like a cackle than anything.
It’s seriously obnoxious.
4. AUTOPILOT by silkbombs (mulberrygrey) (11k)
Louis accidentally sends an unknown number a video of him giving a cockroach a funeral. The weirdest love story ensues.
5. BABY GOT BLUE EYES by bottomlinsons (grimgrace) (4k)
A college/uni fic. Harry has been working on a mural and has been struggling to find the right shade of blue. Until he meets Louis. (Essentially, a very silly take on what could have otherwise been an incredibly romantic tale!)
6. DOCTOR’S ORDERS by larrymylove (4k)
Louis was fucked was the thing. And if he wasn’t currently in the situation he was in, he’d laugh at the irony of that statement.
Louis gets into a bit of a predicament and has to go to the hospital. Harry is the doctor in charge of his care. Based on the prompt I saw on tumblr about Louis getting a sex toy stuck inside of him, and Harry being the doctor who has to remove it.
7. IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT by hazkaban (8k)
louis takes a stray dog in for the night and ends up with more than he bargained for.
8. SOMETHIN’ BOUT YOU by missandrogyny (59k)
Of all the government agents in the world, Louis had to go and land the most charming one.
9. STARVE MY HEART OF TOUCH AND TIME by tomlinsoln (15k)
au: everyone tells louis to just breathe, but he’s surrounded by water
10. YOU SLOW IT DOWN by aloequeera (15k)
Louis’ off the pitch for at least ten months, and Harry helps distract him. It becomes more than that.
And it’s funny, in a way, how they both broke each other’s rules. Harry thinks he should have seen it coming from the start. Of course it would be Louis who would turn his world upside down- and of course he would try his best to return the favour.
