📖 knock knock, i love you by @thelovejandles (86k)
Harry and Louis get kicked out of a statistics exam for passing a knock knock joke note, and subsequently fall in love. Harry’s a virgin, there’s a cat, a hot cocoa date, a lot of sex, even more knock knock jokes, and everything is lovely and happy.
📖 Skin New, Hands True, My Hands All Over You by @moonhusbands (44k)
Featuring a heavy dose of pining, copious amounts of alcohol, drunk dialing that results in a situation reminiscent of Rachel Green’s, a ginger cat that likes to interrupt intimate moments, and a Halloween party that changes everything.
📖 Put On Your Running Shoes, I’m Ready to Go by @peachbootylouis (35k)
Or the one where Harry has to go to Liam at the gym he works at and just so happens to catch Louis giving a group exercise class, convincing him to start going to that gym just to see Louis as much as he can. And as it turns out, Louis may be just as eager to see him too.

all louis tomlinson wished for was a change to blow in with the cool autumn breeze this year. but when change comes in the form of a boy who makes him forgot to breathe properly, he thinks he may have gotten more than he bargained for.

📖 that sweet something by @paisleystyles (13k)
or: a single dad au in which Louis hosts his annual Halloween party and needs a little help from a certain someone to make it all run smoothly. Featuring Zayn as Louis’ ever-exasperated colleague, Liam as a pumpkin patch owner and Niall as Niall, only with more highlighters.

📖 taken by the wind by @scrunchyharry (12k)
When he decided to move to London with his sister, Harry thought he would finally get to learn how to control his magic. He couldn’t possibly have predicted that he would fall for her neighbour.
Or the one where Harry is a clumsy witch and Louis is making everything worse just by existing.
📖 You come in waves (we crash and we roll) by @rainbowsandlovehl (11k)
Three times Louis makes a fool of himself in front of Harry and one time he doesn’t.
📖 I’ll Meet You At The Cemetery Gates by @chrysopon (10k)
Or, Zayn works at the cemetery only because he likes to look at statues, Niall lives in a society, Liam is silly tipsy, Harry is a witch (not a wizard), and Louis just wants them to have some respect for the deceased.
📖 i get a little bit nervous around you by @femstyles (8k)
Or the one where Harry never had a problem with controlling his magic until Louis walked into his life. AKA the clumsy witch Harry AU no one asked for!
📖 that’s the kind of love (i’ve been dreaming of) by @leedsau (7k)
You see, Harry and the boys (the boys meaning Louis, Liam, Zayn, and Niall) are employed for one month out of the year to dress up in costumes for an amusement park, to go around and be all scary and cool. Harry’s go-to outfit is a witch, but not the scary kind, he doesn’t want to be one of the scary witches, he wants to be more…sexy, but also appropriate for families. Liam usually dresses up as a werewolf, Zayn a vampire, Louis a mummy, and Niall…well…
📖 Bon Appétit, Baby by @softfonds (6k)
It’s Halloween, their baby daughter is staying with her aunt, and Harry and Louis finally get a date night, complete with a surprise Louis surely wasn’t expecting.
📖 a walk around the edges of your trepidation by @britishlovers (6k)
Harry and Louis go pumpkin picking in Red Sun, one of the most eerie towns in England. Amidst beautiful photographs, breathtaking love and crisp autumn wind, events accelerate into a much darker perspective.
📖 in other words, I love you by @cocoalou (3k)
In 2004, the year that they met, Harry kissed Louis for the very first time on Halloween.
Ten years later, Harry has to spend Halloween on bed rest and Louis makes sure that his husband doesn’t miss a thing.
📖 The cat is out of the bag by @vintageumbroshirt (3k)
Harry somehow gets himself stuck as a black cat on Halloween and needs help from Louis to change back into his human form.
The problem is: Louis doesn’t even know witches exist, much less that Harry is one. And there’s also the fact he thinks Harry is ghosting him after they had sex for the first time.
So the situations isn’t ideal. But it’s okay. Harry will figure something out.
📖 Out of Our Shells by @crinkle-eyed-boo (2k)
When Harry discovers that Louis has never gone trick-or-treating, he’s determined to give him the most human experience possible.
