Louis took a deep breath and spun the bottle. Harry could barely look, pondering in the back of his mind the consequences if he were to leap to his feet and run off home. The bottle stopped, and Harry looked down.
“That’s typical!” Louis laughed. “That’s how destined I am to be single, forever.”
The bottle was pointing back at Louis.
“Kiss yourself!” Christine laughed.
“That’s not pointing at you!” Said Oli, who had come back in and was nursing a beer from the doorway. “It’s on Harry.”
“It’s not.” Harry said quickly.
“I mean, at any rate, Harry was the last person it pointed at before you.” Stan said to Louis. “Kiss Harry.”
“Isn’t the rule to spin again?” Harry said, swallowing.
“Come on, get on with it!” Stan rolled his eyes.
Louis turned to Harry, giving him a reassuring smile, and moving his mouth close to Harry’s ear.
“Don’t worry, lad. It’s me. It’s just a kiss, yeah?”
“Yeah.” Harry mumbled.

Harry has been in love with Louis since, like, always, and nothing can stress him out like a game of Spin the Bottle and getting locked in a cupboard.

Maybe it wasn't something sudden, then. Had probably felt like this for a long while, he thinks. Just didn't realize it until that moment he stood stock still staring at Niall laughing at his own lack of coordination as Harry missed half of his Little White Lies solo.
(Specifically, where the boys play a stupid game of Spin the Bottle after their last show, and Harry wants to kiss Niall. Just not in front of the rest of them.)

The grass was so green and the sky was so blue, when did the colours go away, when did the snow stop, when did Harry’s eyes become stars? Pink and white marshmallows roasted brown on candles; green and blue bruises appearing magically on their legs and arms, tender to the touch; sunburnt skin and bleached-blond hair and everything was so goddamn bright and beautiful.
Harry and Louis have always been a pair- joined at the hip since the Styles family moved into town when Louis was at the tender age of 5. Somewhere along the line, Harry's feelings develop into a more-than-platonic kind of love, especially when Louis gets his first long term girlfriend.

As always, the classic high-school rumour mill is never completely reliable. Sure, there are those stories that fly around that turn out to be true—like the one about Niall getting with a model at a party a few months ago (which Louis still struggles to believe)—but this ‘rumour’ has so many versions, and none of them are actually right.
The Sixth Form AU where Louis is the footie team captain, Harry is head boy, and no one at school has any idea that the two of them are in love.

Harry hates Golden Boy Louis and he's pretty sure the feeling's mutual. It's too bad they're forced into parenthood together during the home ec baby project.
Featuring accidental fathers, an improv performance gone wrong, and an altruistic game of spin the bottle.

There’s a boy sitting on the branch. Harry’s sure he’s a real, live boy, not a pretend one. Only– he doesn’t look like any boy Harry’s seen before. Because he glows. His skin looks like there’s a gentle light coming out of it, and if Harry squints– are those colours on the boy’s skin? Harry suddenly thinks, looking at him, that he looks just like the sky.
