1️⃣ Let Me Feel Your Heartbeat by @angelichl {E, 34k}
Harry is 98% sure Louis hates him. So he feels like his bewilderment is justified when the omega offers to help him through his rut.
2️⃣ waiting for the tides to meet by @nauticalleeds {E, 59k}
Louis lets out a deep breath, thinking about Harry’s soulmate. Thinking about how Harry’s soulmate is probably as beautiful as Harry, some person that Louis cannot compare to, and how the universe has chosen them to be Harry’s. Fuck the universe. “Fuck you,” he calls out to the universe. He’s aware of how crazy he sounds.
Maybe he is crazy, with how he’s falling for Harry. And fuck that, too.
Soulmate AU. Everyone is born with heterochromia — one eye is their own eye colour, while the other is the colour of their soulmate's. It's only when they meet their soulmate for the first time that their own eyes match properly. After a hazy night at a frat party, Louis wakes up to blue eyes and the shocking realization that he had met his soulmate, without any sober recollection. Seven years pass where Louis comes to terms with the fact that he'll never know who his soulmate is. Then one fated summer, a beautiful green-eyed photographer arrives at Louis' workplace, with promises of endless laughter and a familiar feeling in Louis' heart.
Featuring a lovely cup of OT5, a road trip down the coast, and a scene where Harry eats a whole head of lettuce. Don't ask why.
3️⃣ love is a word, you gave it a name by CuckooTrooke / @larrydoinglaundry {E, 158k}
After two decades in brutal show business, Louis Tomlinson is trying to restore his tranquility of mind in the peace of Northern Europe where the sun barely sets, Maria's bar is always open, and young Harry has an irresistible spark in his eyes.
4️⃣ Fake It Till You Make It by thealmightyavocado / @avocadolouie {M, 136k}
In a twisted turn of events, Louis finds himself posing as the brother of his fiancé, Harry, for an annual company retreat.
Did he sign up for this? No.
Is he doing it anyway? Yes.
Can they actually pull this off? Probably not.
5️⃣ Falling For Me Won't Be A Mistake by Rearviewdreamer / @all-these-larrythings {M, 58k}
Harry is married to his job and so overworked that he doesn't know how to stop. All it takes is a forced Hawaiian get-a-away, the warm tropical breeze of the island, and the most beautiful, elusive man he's ever seen to make him remember what living is like outside of work. Well, that, and the little souvenir he accidentally takes home with him.
HIDDEN GEMS:
💎 Love Moves Like The Sea by flamboyo / @riverswater {M, 33k}
“Of course I want to stay with you, I missed you, you know? We haven't spent so much time apart since…” Harry’s smile dims a bit. “Well, we've never done it.” There's a hint of a question there, a why. Why did you stop reaching out, why did we stop talking for months? Louis doesn’t answer. He can’t say, ‘I was hoping that by ignoring you for months I would have fallen out of love with you, and it didn’t even happen’ on their first day of vacation, can he? * Spending two weeks in his uncle's old house by Lee Bay beach is not Louis' ideal holiday, but sadly is the only one he can afford this summer. Spending those alone with Harry, his best friend who he has spent the last five years in love with, may make everything a little better, though. Away from everyday reality, alone somewhere that makes you forget your past and gloss over your future, maybe it's time for two friends to finally explore what they haven't said (but felt) for years.
💎 Like Those Foreign Stars by @beanno28 {E, 18k}
Louis' family go on a vacation to Mexico, he never expects to meet a handsome young entertainer who seems to have taken a liking to him. What happens when Louis easily gives in and decides sneaking around his family's back to have a fling takes a turn?
💎 BLVD by @kingsofeverything {E, 12k}
It’s the first week of summer break and Harry just wants to relax and enjoy his vacation in Myrtle Beach.
If only he could stop making an ass of himself.
💎 i need something, so tell me something new by @alwaysxlarrie {E, 10k}
Louis goes on vacation to New York City to enjoy the good weather and good food - he even has a list of restaurants he wants to eat at. Much to his delight, his first restaurant stop includes a gorgeous curly boy and his nosy but supportive best friend. Maybe he'll get more than what he came here for.
💎 hear my belated regret by theankletattoo / @peachade {E, 3k}
“Baby, can you look at me? Please,” he pleads, thumbing over his cheekbones, pads of his thumbs calloused. It reminds him of the beach, feet wet from salty waves, sand coarse, sticking to him, laughter and waves and salt and lovers. “Don’t ask that of me,” he says out loud.
they find love in each other on a vacation.
