Summary
Fuck superyachts, Harry thinks.
Actually, fuck all yachts, he amends. He has no idea if this is a superyacht or a regular yacht. Or possibly just a really fancy speedboat. All he knows is that he’s hurtling along at a dizzying speed, pulled by a rope tangled around his tail.
I am never getting on a yacht, he thinks as he whizzes by a school of fish. Nothing good comes from a yacht.

Summary
“I know but now I’m all alone while everyone else is with their families and i’m going to die alone! And- and-” Harry hiccuped, “Only my Mum and Gems have called me! Shows how much of an impression I made on people.”
“Hey! I called you. Talking to you right now actually...”
“Yeah...why did you call me? It’s been...a long time”
“Well I just,” Louis sighed “it’s the end of the world.”
“It is.”
“And I am completely and utterly in love with you,” Louis said. He heard a bunch of fumbling as the screen went black. “Shit! Shit!” Louis said, tapping the screen frantically to try and get Harry back. Was his phone dying? Maybe this apocalypse thing cut the internet off and then he’d never get to hear Harry react-
Or, it's the end of the world, and Harry and Louis spend it together, from across the globe.

Summary
Liam had followed InZaynity, an artist's Instagram, for ages. Not only was the artist incredibly talented, his voice poured over Liam like warm honey on a winter's night, and his hands were the stuff Liam's wank dreams were made of. However, having Zayn unexpectedly arrive as the newest artist at his best friend's tattoo shop brought Liam's fantasies and reality a little too close for comfort.
Zayn Malik met his boss' friend on his first day at Fine Line Tattoos, and felt an instant attraction. Unfortunately, given Liam's unwillingness to even hold a conversation with him, Zayn was certain the feelings weren't reciprocal. Or were they?
When Liam's new tattoo design falls outside the scope of Tommo's talent, and he recommends Zayn do it, Liam reluctantly agrees. Surely he could manage to spend hours in Zayn's company without revealing his biggest secret, right? Right?
