“This is a disaster,” Liam says, plopping down at the Gryffindor table next to Louis. Louis doesn't bother looking up from his treacle tart, which isn't exactly the sympathetic response that Liam was fishing for.

or, a hogwarts au in which liam pines, harry gets around, and they both get by with a little help from their friends.

you make loving fun by softlylirry

“First time doing the whole drop off?” Liam asks, walking up to the man. He looks up at Liam, just a hint of tears present as he nods his head. “Yeah, she’s a shy one. I’m a bit worried,” he replies, standing up while looking back into the classroom. His daughter is sitting beside Sophie, and Liam smiles at the way Sophie immediately began talking to her. “The first drop off is always the worst. But I think she’s gonna be just fine,” Liam says, giving him a smile. He holds his hand out for a shake, “I’m Liam Payne.” “Harry Styles,” Harry responds, returning the smile, this time genuinely. Liam is struck by the ease and brightness of it, like sunshine.

call me a safe bet (i'm betting i'm not) by mrsenjolras

They agreed that it would be too hard for them to keep up their relationship long distance, that they didn’t want to risk losing their friendship. So it made sense that when Harry was away, they saw other people. They’re the same as they always are when they’re together--Harry guesses you could call them friends with benefits, but he doesn’t think that really encompasses what they mean to each other. Louis calls them idiots, which, well, probably isn’t all that inaccurate.

It’s not really that big of a deal. Harry is happy. Liam is happy--well, Harry’s pretty sure Liam is happy. So Louis can just shut it.

[Or: Liam and Harry have an arrangement, and it all goes great, until it doesn't.]

Us While They Stare Upon by kingdra (aroceu) for magentania

Solo popstar Liam Payne kisses Harry Styles, innocent university barista on the mouth, and suddenly the media is all over them! Now everyone is invested in Liam Payne's solo career and more importantly, his love life—who is this person he kissed? are they dating? how long have they been dating? how long will they date?

Or: Liam and Harry fake date, and at least four circles of hell break loose.

Running On Nothing But Hope by onewasturning

Harry looks at the backs of their heads, Niall’s dark hair sticking up in tufts and Jesy’s pulled back and ready for war, and wonders who is of more danger to whom. There are animals there inside all of them. Predators. A wolf that he can feel underneath his skin even now searching for a means to break free.

By the time the trees part open to reveal a clearing, the sun has begun to set and all Harry can think of is the terror he knows he is capable of inflicting.

Or, as a newly bitten werewolf, Harry tries to find something to believe in while he loses everything, especially his sense of control.

"This is a dream, innit? Like, I'm gonna wake up soon and be in my bed and this will all have been some crazy dream."

"Sorry," Nick says with a frown. "This is no dream."

Liam slumps back against his pillows and covers his face with his hands. This can't be real, he can't possibly be a werewolf.

And You Linger Like a Haunting Refrain by onewasturning

This won’t be the first time Liam’s seen students leave. They come in droves and while away tepid hours through halogen-lit days and nights, before they run off to better things, better jobs, as if this were just a miserable stopgap pitstop on their way to success. Liam’s got pretty good by now at pushing down that ugly feeling of envy that rises up like acid. He’s got pretty good at signing his name in the corner of a congratulatory card under a 'good luck' and 'well done' message he can’t help wishing were for him.

But. Harry, though. With Harry, it seems like the only thing he feels is vague regret and an 'I’ll miss you' that he doesn’t really have any right to.

Or, Harry's leaving his job at the supermarket, and all Liam ever seems to do is hold on.

Tear My World Apart by mellocomeon

The questions are a variety of song related ones and private ones. As expected most of them are “How is the song writing process going?”, “Can you describe the chemistry between you two?”, “Who came up with the idea of the duet?” but they are also asked questions that Liam never even thought of being asked like “Is it true that you are in a secret relationship together?”. That one Liam definitely saw not coming. Harry also appears to be taken aback by it. He coughs and shakes his head. The curls flying around. “I’m sorry, where did you get this from?” “There have been pictures of you hanging out at Liam’s place for what seems like a romantic dinner.” The blonde answers, not aware of the charged air. “We never … “ ‘– hung out in private!’ Is not what you should answer, Payne. ‘It’s not what it looks like.’ Also isn’t the right thing to answer.

Or: Harry and Liam have been rivals since the X-Factor days. Now they are forced to work together on a song.

“Liam,” Louis says slowly, turning to him bodily. His hands are clasped together in front of him, as if in prayer. “I’m not the one who bit the bleedin’ prince!”

“You bit me?” Prince Harry cries, hands shooting, inexplicably, to his chest, hands covering where his nipples must be under his shirt. “Are you insane?”

“If that’s,” Liam stops, clears his throat, “if that’s what you really want.”

No! Harry's heart screams. It's not! And it isn't, really, what he wants is to go back to when they were happy, when Harry knew when Liam was coming home and what he was up to, when Teddy always had both his dads home to tuck him in. “It is what I want,” he says, and officially breaks his own heart in two.

[Or: the one where Harry and Liam break up, sort of.]

My Bright Blue Sky (The Sun in My Eyes) by pillarboxred

“Clara, this is Liam.” Harry looks up at Liam, not at Clara. “He...he takes care of us.”

Liam attempts a smile that he doesn't really feel. Clara blinks at him, that same slow blink that he’s seen on Harry, and a long moment passes before she shifts and buries her face in Harry’s neck. Harry’s hand covers the back of her head again, and he whispers something to her that Liam can't hear too well but sounds a lot like he does.

Or, Harry's daughter turns up at their door and she's much more than she appears to be.

Fire and Water by Narryornarry

“Why’d you wanna collab with me anyways?” Liam asked.

“Liam’s been confused about that all week,” Niall chuckled.

“Because I thought he hated me,” Liam said, glaring at Niall.

“I don’t hate you, Liam. Where would you get an idea like that?” Harry said, looking half offended and half amused.

“You know exactly why,” Liam told him.”

Or the one where 1D never happened but things seemed to fall into place anyways.

And he can't seem to shake it. He can't seem to shake Harry from his mind because Harry had been so enriched in everything Liam’s done for the past two years that Liam can't find a rhythm without him. And damn it, he is trying.

Yesterday’s Gone by littlelondonlights

“But what if I don’t like the tile in the kitchen? Or the closet isn’t big enough?” Harry pouts, crawling up the couch to press his lips against Liam’s cheek.

“Can you hear my eyes rolling, Harry? Renovations take time, more money, hiring people and I think you’ve been watching too much HGTV. You know they always find mold or broken pipes when they go in and do big projects.”

Liam just knows he’ll be stuck doing the renovations, regardless if the house is move-in ready or not.

“But Liam,” Harry whines, his hands tugging at Liam’s t-shirt.

“We’ll see, Harry.”

Nothing Safe is Worth The Drive by PigSlay for definitelynotafan

(Originally posted for the Lirry fic exchange on 4/15/17)

Harry is a massive fan of singer/songwriter Liam. His friends think he's got a bit of a crush. He also works in a coffee shop to pay for his studies. Enter Liam. He just wants some darn coffee. It’s way too early and he’s tired. He’s not prepared for Harry’s curls or dimples. At all.

my world never looked so bright by mrsenjolras

Liam Payne is bloody gorgeous. That’s the first thought that runs through Harry’s head, followed shortly after by Liam Payne is bloody straight and unattainable. It’s completely inadvisable for Harry to go after Liam, especially with the show and all, but Harry’s always appreciated a pretty face. And he doesn’t think there’s anything wrong in admiring Liam a little bit, so long as he does his job at the same time.
