Canny With The Flow

By: thinlines @thinlinez

Rating: Explicit

Pairing: Harry Styles/ Louis Tomlinson

Status: Completed 9k

Dedicated to Tricia and Riri

“Why don’t you ask for his number? Stop wasting our time. I could be home by now.” Niall complained.

“I can’t!” Harry screeched. He knew he was being dramatic, but he couldn’t handle a straight up rejection. He certainly didn’t want to scare the alpha and ruin his chances. “It needs to be natural. Our meeting… He has to fall in love with me naturally.”

“You are so weird.” Liam was shaking his head.

“What do you mean naturally? Asking for his number isn’t natural enough? Jeez!” Niall's grumble was already lost in Harry's ears.

OR Omega Harry brews a plan to bag his crush and executes it. Period.

This fic is a gift and also a part of an ongoing collection

[thinlinez]

IT IS LIVE AND HERE! HAPPY 28TH to all and special thanks to Tricia and Riri! Love you guys :))

(E, 105k, Bachelor au) Harry doesn’t agree to be the Bachelor expecting to find love. Louis may have signed up to be a contestant on the Bachelor, but he’s not interested a ring or a proposal, not from Harry, not from anyone. He wouldn’t turn down a few more Instagram followers, though.

(NR, 26k, omegaverse) When Louis gets invited along to Anne's wedding, Harry is prepared to let people think whatever they want about their relationship.

✤ Sugar Daddy Fics ✤

A series of posts with the top five fics of each category by kudos plus five more hidden gems from that category! Remember to leave kudos and a comment on the fics you enjoyed to show your appreciation! You can find the library's other recs here.

- Top 5 H/L Fics -

1️⃣ Loving You Is Free by @littlelouishiccups {E, 67k}

Louis is a workaholic record label CEO who hasn't been on a date in nearly a year. Niall and Liam make an account for him on a sugar dating website as a joke. And then Louis meets Harry.

2️⃣ Pretty Please (With Sugar On Top) by @angelichl {E, 113k}

Harry is a sugar baby omega who cons rich alphas for a living. Louis is a rich alpha with too much self-control.

3️⃣ it ain't trickin' if ya got it by sarcasticfluentry {E, 10k}

Louis raises an eyebrow and smirks. “You have to ask nicely, Harry.”

They’ve never really played like this before, and Louis is a little out of his element but he finds that they’re both falling effortlessly into their roles (and not just because Louis is good at acting).

Harry’s too overwhelmed, though, to say anything without first gasping, “I c-can’t - god, I can’t believe you - please, Daddy, please put it inside?”

... or, 28-year-old blockbuster actor Louis Tomlinson rushes home to give his 20-year-old model boyfriend Harry a good seeing-to after a particularly provocative Instagram post and, in his excitement, alerts the entire world. Featuring daddy kink, anal beads, and feelings.

4️⃣ To Be Loved To Be In Love by Angel_Dust {M, 129k}

At 18, every Sub must take a Match Test to find their Dom.

Poor, Farm kid Louis Tomlinson is matched with Rich, Businessman Harry Styles.

Or, where Harry thinks giving Money, expensive presents and luxuries proves how much you love someone, but Louis is about to turn his world upside down.

5️⃣ baby shut your mouth and turn me inside out by ballsdeepinjesus {E, 10k}

And it’s good. It’s really, really good. Except they haven’t really talked about any of this and Harry can’t muster the courage to bring it up. Niall’s words at the bar run through his mind nearly every day. Fresh meat. Is this a thing Louis does, then? Find a toy to play with for awhile until he gets bored?

 He knows Louis, though. He’s been friends with him for months now and he knows that he’s not just some heartless asshole. But he doesn’t know if this is just a nice convenient hook-up to him or something more, like how Harry feels. And he knows he should ask, but he’s not brave enough. Not brave enough to possibly ruin everything when Harry can take what he’s being offered without complaints.

 [harry and louis meet in a mcdonalds. louis is everything harry needs.]

- Hidden Gems -

💎 starin' back from the lookin' glass (there stood a woman where a half-grown boy had stood) by 4ureyesonly28 / @evilovesyou {E, 23k}

Harry squeezed his feet into the black heels his mother handed him from their little satin bag and stood up, slightly wobbly for a few seconds before he caught himself.

“They’re small on you, I know,” Mama said quietly as she went and grabbed the mirror. “You’ll have to use your first money to get a place to stay, but after that you need to buy shoes that fit you…”

She was still speaking, but Harry couldn’t hear her anymore over the blood rushing in his ears as she turned the mirror and made him look at himself.

He looked… He was… He felt like a woman. Where just under an hour ago, he’d seen a boy, barely a young man, shaving off the bits of his beard that had started to grow in so late, he now saw a woman. She was as real as he had ever seen. His posture, unsure and shy, morphed into hers, shoulders straight and hip cocked as she tried her best to balance herself on the high heels she’d inherited.

💎 At your service, for your usage (series) by @holdingontochaos {E, 16k}

Louis is a doctor who works so much that he has barely any time to himself for pleasure, let alone to clean his house so he hires Harry as his naked maid and kills two birds with one stone.

💎 Sex Drunk Suckerpunch by thinlines / @thinlinez {E, 7k}

“Damn, Tommo, hit the jackpot this time? Which old bird or geezer gifted you that? Is it that mad bloke Cowell? Fuck! Did you give him a good dicking?” Louis’ face twisted in disgust as he shoved Niall off. “Don’t say shit like that. Fucking gross.” He shook his head, shuddering at the thought. “Well? Who is it? Who’s willing to spend that much on you?” Louis had to hightail into his room and lock the door to avoid Niall’s insistent questions. He sank down on his bed, carefully putting the Rolex back onto its cushion before noticing a folded note underneath the padding. Hello Louis, I’ve heard from Helene about you. Please contact me when you get this. All the love, H. “H?” Louis pushed back his long fringe.

OR Sugar Baby Louis did what any sugar baby should avoid doing but (clichely) end up doing anyways, that is, failing for his sugar mama.

💎 Never Wanted Love, Just A Fancy Car by LiveLaughLoveLarry / @loveislarryislove {M, 7k}

“Anyways,” the man says, “someone as handsome as you shouldn’t be sitting all alone with an empty glass. Can I get you a drink?”Louis raises an eyebrow, snorting. “It’s an open bar,” he says. “The company is buying the drinks.”“Well.” The man laughs nervously. “I suppose so. But it is my company, so. I guess I already bought you a drink?”Louis feels his head jerk up in surprise, his mouth falling open as he looks into the face of COO Harry Styles, son of founder and CEO Desmond Styles.

When graphic designer Louis gets asked out by C-suite executive Harry, he thinks Harry is trying to take advantage of him. But he's willing to take advantage of him right back, if that's what it takes to get ahead in life and get his sister's new business off the ground.

💎 Figure This Out by @haztobegood {E, 2k}

Louis is everything Harry could have imagined when he’d typed “silver fox enthusiast” into his Grindr profile. Too bad he's probably scared Louis off by giving him too many expensive gifts.

[thedevilinmybrain]

hold me like a knife rated e, 110k

Louis ’Blue Eyes’ Tomlinson is a thing of legend, a bit of a mystery really, a shadow in the fringes of the eye. There are rumors around the precinct that he wasn’t even born, just crawled out of the sewage left on the street after a strong storm. No one has ever attributed a good omen or a holy deed to him, not a decent quality to his lot. All except for Harry Styles, socialite butterfly and adopted son of high politician Simon Cowell, who lowers himself every once in a way to hang out with the gang. When people begin to go missing and winding up mutilated, their parts having been ripped out, it begins a race against time to solve who is behind the attacks and why the bodies keep getting dumped in Louis' territory.

Like I said, Lemonade is so H core lol

[thinlinez]

Hi! I hope you’re doing well. I wanted to reach out because I’ve been looking for your fics “Quite on the Contrary” and „Your touch shouldnt make me feel like this“ for a while — I‘ve read them some time ago and they were my absolute favourites!

I completely understand if you decided to take it down or keep it private, but I just wanted to ask if there’s any chance you’d be comfortable sharing a copy (even privately, just for reading). Of course, I’d completely respect your wishes if not — I just wanted to ask directly rather than go looking for unauthorized versions.

Thank you so much for your time, and for sharing your writing with the fandom — it clearly meant a lot to many people.

Wishing you all the best 💛

hello anon, thank you for the sincere message. I have taken all those fics down and didn't keep copies of them, also I don't like it if they are being spread around... I am so sorry... Thank you for reading them though and thank you for being kind! Wish you all the best too!

@greenblueish in case you don't check your dms, CHECK YOUR DMS xxx

HE IS SO GAY

[thinlinez]

Reminds me of when he first debuted his solo songs wearing that fucking H shirt on livestream with his emo long bang to now with his peaky blinder cut and making these summer pops, I mean, how did he get here for real ??? 😆 The dynamic is so wide

[thinlinez]

It's like a hippie disco pop kinda song, idk if it good or nah but since the song just makes me think about H, I guess it's good ? 😆

[thinlinez]

I am guessing Lemonade is probably a song Lou wrote based on H's writing style and melody cuz the entire thing looks like something H did, it's like a tribute to his wife tbh

[marchessa]

The only positive thing in the recent month is when I can go on the field instead of rotting in the office.

Today I had to go to a beautiful place alone, long car ride... Listening to the audio book version of Jenson Button's Life to the Limit was a great way to pass time. It's a shame it's over and I still have the drive back in front of me
