Summary
“Stand up.”
Harry stood up from the couch, not a moment’s delay.
“Oh my god, is that what that’s like?” Harry turned to Louis, surprise on his face. “I really thought they were somehow exaggerating, but it really is an automatic response with absolutely no thought from me behind it whatsoever.”
Louis sighed again. “You really wanna keep doing this? Have me use my alpha voice on you so you can work on resisting it?”
“Yup,” Harry said, clapping his hands and smiling. “How else am I going to be able to have any chance at reducing the power an alpha voice has on me?”

Summary
Harry always has an obsession. When he gets into recycling and then onto saving the world, Louis thought it was just another phase. Except it wasn’t. It continues month after month, the list of rules growing as Harry involves himself in groups and friends with the same extreme outlook.
Louis is helpless to watch it all happen, trying to support, but ultimately on the sidelines of it all. It continues until tensions boil over the night before the annual Earth Day party. It’s now Harry’s favorite holiday, and his attempts to make it perfect only push Louis further away. Louis tries his best to cope but loses it at the worst possible moment, leaving only emptiness behind.
Or the one where Harry wants to save the world but loses sight of who’s been right in front of him all along

Summary
He took in Zayn’s casual demeanor, one ankle propped up on his opposite knee, one arm resting on the back of the couch, smoking without a care in the world. He didn’t look like he had even an ounce of uneasiness in him about the situation. Harry wanted to feel that comfortable, that confident, like nothing could touch him or shake his core. Maybe a couple of hits would do the trick.
In which Zayn and Harry get high before having sex.

Summary
Harry had sensed Louis was getting antsy all day, prodding and poking at Harry’s psyche like a game of mental whack-a-mole, trying to find that one thing that would flip the switch and push Harry over the edge. Even after all these years Louis still thinks he can get a rise, that he can in any way control the scenario. He couldn’t be more wrong.
OR the one where Harry hates to be away from Louis, Louis hates to miss Harry, but everyone gets what they need… eventually.

Summary
Louis is an overworked bartender hoping to save up enough extra tips to buy a new air conditioner before he literally melts during a scorching NYC heat wave. Harry is the new neighbor that wakes him up by moving in his sole day off at 6am. An NYC enemies to neighbors to friends to lovers AU featuring a rickety fire escape, the 2021 Euros, Lirry bickering like a divorced couple, and enough OT5 clichés to rot your teeth. (If Harry's pastries don't get them first.)
In this Part Two (which can be read as a standalone story) the neighbors to friends arc of this trajectory is in full swing, with backstories galore including Niall’s preoccupation with everyone else’s business, Liam’s preoccupation with being anywhere but here, Harry’s preoccupation with partial nudity, and Louis just trying to make it through the day on a very little sleep and a whole lot of new neighbor Harry. (Zayn is still MIA—imagine that!—but if you think you know where he is then you should definitely leave your prediction in the comments.)

Summary
“I’m proud of you, Noah,” Harry says, patting his young student on the back. “You really worked hard on these math problems, and it paid off. Now, why don’t you pack up head home -- I’m sure your mother will be excited to hear about all you’ve accomplished today.”
“She sure will!” Noah exclaims, grabbing the worksheets and stuffing them into his backpack. “I can’t wait to tell her all about it -- and all about how you’re the bestest teacher in the whole wide world!” He dashes out of the classroom with the kind of youthful energy Harry can only dream of. He smiles fondly after the young boy, finally allowing a yawn to slip out as he stretches. It’s been a long day.
“He’s right, you know,” Louis' familiar voice says from the hallway. “You really are the bestest teacher in the whole wide world.”
