Summary
Something changed in the air when the door opened. Almost irritating, annoyingly gnawing at his brain to look up and face whatever sad loser was in the building with him.
When he did, he understood the irritation in the air immediately.
There were only a handful of people in the world who could throw off his equilibrium without saying a word, and Harry has always been one of them. It didn’t make any logical sense, not after this long, over a decade of no contact and a very clear decision to leave things where they had been left, but Louis had never been able to logic his way through this particular ghost.
༄.°
Fourteen years ago, Louis lost his best friend, and Harry lost his. A chance meet up in their hometown diner forces them to have the conversation they've been avoiding for over a decade. A story about second chances, learning what's important, and growing up.

Cute one, well written. Young love that got lost, and found again.

Summary
Louis takes a third-grade teaching job in Clover Hill as a favor, mostly because he has nowhere else to go. He lost his job as a sous-chef, and everything else in Chicago fell apart. This Hallmark-channel town feels more like punishment than a fresh start. Louis prepares for the worst ten months of his life.
Until Harry, the art teacher who ribbon laces his sneakers and paints rainbow fences, makes it really easy to get distracted.

Summary
When Sergeant Harry Styles was discharged from the military, he carried more than physical scars. Grief-stricken, aimless and haunted by guilt, he's not prepared for what life will bring him.
Louis Tomlinson has spent years building a chaotic but fiercely loving home as an emergency foster carer. It was always him and his kids, until the day he took in a boy that would change his whole life.
A deeply emotional, slow-burn love story about healing, found family and choosing love even when it hurts.

Beautiful story, H. has PTSD after serving in the army, and losing his friend and lover Tony there. He meets L. who is a foster carer for Tonys son, a son H.never knew about. Lots of angst, and even more love.

Summary
“I understand. Just…don't ghost me, Louis. I really fucking like you,” he wants to hide from the embarassment for being so forward, but for some reason he feels at ease telling Louis the truth about how he feels.
“I'm not going anywhere, Harry. I promise I want this as much as you do. I just have someone else I need to consider in the equation.”

The one where Louis and his little girl move in upstairs from Harry, who is enamored with them from the very beginning.

Based on the true story of how my parents met (well, not the gay part).

Summary
Louis doesn’t mind being the background character in most people’s lives. He’s perfectly content sketching poetry into the corners of his notebooks, watching the world through a foggy pane of glass and graphite lines.
Harry Styles, on the other hand, is everyone's main event — football captain, beloved campus golden boy, a walking constellation of charm and chaos. And yet, he spends most of their shared math class asleep, chin propped on his hand like someone bone-tired of the world.
So Louis does what he always does when he doesn’t know how to speak — he draws.
It starts with a flower in the corner of Harry’s notes.
He doesn’t expect Harry to notice.
But Harry does. And he draws back.
What begins as a doodle war becomes a silent language. What grows in the margins might just change the entire page.https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7zwuRD2jSOkzfBBM2MuVVf?si=bZZWpxQgSPKE-4trAgGIKg - FIC PLAYLIST <3
