At Least I Think I Do by KrisStylinson (wordcount: 5,596)

It’s just supposed to be a prank. Harry isn’t supposed to be okay with the idea of accidentally marrying his best friend, or that he’s woken up naked in bed with him the morning after. He’s supposed to freak out and maybe cry a bit until Louis finally takes pity on him and tells him it’s a joke. He’s not supposed to like it.

As You Are by zarah5 (wordcount: 139,331)

AU. Five years after The X Factor launched his career as a radio host and songwriter, Louis Tomlinson returns as a judge. 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.

And Then a Bit by infinitelymint (wordcount: 158,824)

“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.)

Amazing Sin by thecheshirepussycat (wordcount: 56,034)

Gears started turning in Louis’ head. Purely mischievous gears that had Louis formulating a revenge plan against Taylor. He’d had enough of sitting around and taking it. If she was going to call him a whore, then fine, he’ll act like one for real. “I’m going to say something, and as my friends you are obligated to love me anyway.” “This can’t be good,” Niall said, Zayn just groaned. “So I know we have this strict ‘no lashing back at Taylor’ rule with me, but what if I can get press revenge a different way?” Louis asked. He wasn’t expecting an answer, because they knew by now to just go with it. “What if I stole her boyfriend?” Or, the story of Louis ‘Steal Your Man’ Tomlinson.

All We Are is Skin and Bone by lumineres (wordcount: 9,844)

When he gets up and out of the car his head spins and his vision darkens for a second. He can’t breathe, jesus christ. Niall’s car is already here, thank god, he can register that much. And he knows his feet are moving, and he still knows to take a larger step on the last stair leading up to the door because it’s weirdly an inch taller than the rest, and he nearly forgets to ring the doorbell, because for like two years this was his second home.

God. Louis was his home.

or, harry realizes how much has changed when he opens the mug cabinet and finds plates.

All Of Our Important Nothings by deadspy (wordcount: 27,414)

Louis stares down at his phone for an eternity before typing out the message. does she know that paper plane necklace was a gift from my mum to you our first christmas together??? He immediately regrets sending it. He knows it doesn’t matter. Knows Taylor’s necklace is a cheap knockoff of the one Harry had always worn so proudly— knows the way he’d smiled at it, lifting it slowly from the small box he’d been given it to in, the way Jay had met Louis’ eyes from across the room and winked, how it had dangled from Harry’s neck that night as he rode Louis on his childhood bed, the little silver airplane catching on the lights from cars passing by on the road outside shining into his room and casting soft reds and yellows over Harry’s pale skin. [Harry and Louis are in love, Haylor happens, and Louis battles quite a few demons along the way.]

A Virgin To That Money by eversincewefellapart (wordcount: 7,366)

AU. Harry and Louis are broke university students who hate each other and make a sex tape. (In which Louis gets fucked a lot, Harry can’t find the camera, and the road to falling in love is different for everyone.)
