fics that ruined me [4/?]

we press play don’t press pause by @snuffleslove; 27k, read on ao3

Liam and him can’t be together. Zayn’s. He’s a Muslim in a town that hates Islam, gay in a culture that forbids it. And yeah ok, he’s not blind. He knows the way he looks when he dances, knows he’s good at it, that the symmetrical face doesn’t hurt, that most of his dance sisters blush and giggle around him but, Liam’s. Liam. And he deserves all the good in the world that Zayn can’t possibly give him, can barely find for himself.

He just. He can’t. He shouldn’t.

is this coincidence or a sign by  shrdmdnssftw, snuffleslove

There’s a moment where it’s as if everything has gone silent, but then Liam makes a sort of half-choked noise and Zayn turns to Louis, coughs to clear his throat.

“Uh, Lou,” he starts, voice tentative. “I think you’ve got it wrong here- uh, Liam and I aren’t- we haven’t- we aren’t dating.”

Or, a high school AU where Zayn and Liam aren't dating, and then don't go on a date, before finally getting things together.

Part 2 of the stop making plans, start making sense series

Author:   snuffleslove Pairing: Liam/Zayn Word Count: 15K+ Tags:  kidfic, series Summary: Zayn feels numb. There's a low pulse of desperation in his fingertips, like he's trying to catch smoke with his bare hands, keep it close to him. He tries to imagine a lifetime without tangling his hands in Mack's curls or being held by Liam, strong hands wrapped around him from behind and can't. Weeks have passed and Zayn can still remember perfectly the way Liam's breath feels tickling his ear, the way his laugh shakes through his entire body, the way he flushes behind his neck when Zayn teases him.

  Worth fighting for? he thinks. He's never been more sure of anything in his life.

Author:   snuffleslove Pairing: Liam/Zayn Word Count: 20K+ Tags:  kidfic, series Summary: Liam's on his way to get groceries when he hears the music. It's low and beautiful, seeping through his skin and settling in his bones and Liam forgets about everything else, makes a sharp turn towards the source of it, nearly turning over his bike in his haste. He rounds two corners before he finds the boy, sitting on an overturned bucket with a guitar in his lap and a bike carelessly toppled by his feet.

Or, a Once the Musical AU but I write a happy ending instead because those are so much more enjoyable. For anyone who hasn't seen the musical (you should), this is basically angsty zayn/li kidfic.
