hello, i was wondering if you or anyone has the original version of Coeur d'Enfants bylavenderforluck. it was so beautiful and i missed the major character death tag somehow and though i hate those, it was so lovely. i saw that there was a version before this one that the author deleted and im curious to read that one.
Hi, sugar. I haven't read that one, and I don't have any copies of it. Hopefully someone else does.
Some (varying degress of) angst for those of you who like that kind of thing:
(Part One)
1. Indestructible (whoknows) - “Hi,” Harry murmurs, and Louis hiccups out a sob.
“Hi,” he manages, still clutching onto Harry’s shoulders. Harry’s fingers drift across Louis’ cheeks, and there’s something off about Harry’s expression, but Louis can’t figure out what it is.
“I’m okay,” Harry says, and Louis is going to say something to that, even if he doesn’t know what, except Harry’s kissing him.
Louis freezes.
2. Take My Hand (And My Heart And Soul) (bananasandboots) - Harry hasn’t spoken to his best friend in sixteen months and can’t remember why.
3. Jump Before We Fall (green_feelings) - Louis and Zayn’s lives revolve around running a hotel by the sea, Harry is a student who wants a life far from home for just a little while, Niall doesn’t know where life leads him and Liam thinks he has already found all purposes in his life.
4. The Things I’d Do To Wake Up Next To You (dirtymattress) - Harry wakes up to a pregnant Louis Tomlinson and a wedding band on his finger.
5. Wear It Like A Crown (zarah5) - 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.
6. I Love You More (shoulderbone (lavenderforluck)) - Boys like Harry can’t fall in love. But then he meets Louis.
7. Learning To Breathe (youcomecrash) - He’s playing football at one of the top universities in England and he should love everything about his life right now, but instead he’s moving backwards. How does your past fit into your present? Louis is still figuring it out.
8. With Love Comes Strange Currencies (mediaville) - or, They’re Accidentally Mated and Dealing With It Rather Badly.
9. All Tired Talk (ourloveisgod) - In which Harry is the dying front man of a dying rock band, Zayn has finally given up holding his hair back in dingy bathrooms, Niall and Liam are holding up the fort, and Louis comes along with eyes the color of the sky to remind Harry that there is still more life to live.
10. All The Lights Are Full Of Colour (infinitelymint) - Harry and Louis are separated, but for the sake of their two sons, they choose to spend Christmas together. It may just lead to a Christmas miracle.
11. Empty Skies (green_feelings) - 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?
12. Truth Be Told (I Never Was Yours) (justfortommo) - Louis and Harry have a complicated past, Louis is getting married to someone that’s not Harry, and the universe has decided to have a laugh and make Harry the wedding planner.
There are somethings though, I know for certain: always throw spilled salt over your left shoulder, keep rosemary by your garden gate, plant lavender for luck, and fall in love whenever you can.
