Summary
The dregs of his drink were almost cloying on his tongue when he downed it, and as he swallowed, he cut his eyes to the right. Across the pub, sitting at the bar, was a man that had Harry's eyes squinting.
Mostly gray hair, tousled into a messy fringe, a sharp nose, and thin lips around the rim of a pint glass. Harry almost spit an ice cube across the room.
He was almost certain, nearly sure, sixty-five percent at least, that that was Andrew's dad.
It's nearly Christmas and Harry is single and third-wheeling at a pub when he thinks he sees his ex's dad. If he wasn't a little tipsy, maybe he would have been able to keep his mouth shut.Bookmarked by childoflarents

Summary
“You still with us, newbie?”
Harry’s eyes snapped to Louis, who was approaching him with a shot of tequila. He looked beautiful, as he had been all day, unfairly so.
“Thanks,” Harry said, taking the shot glass from him.
“Hope you brought your stamina, Styles,” Louis said, voice low and playful. “The night’s only just getting started.”
or
Harry didn’t expect much when he boarded a train to the countryside for a party with near-strangers and rich kids he barely knew. He definitely didn’t expect to fall for Louis — charming, sharp, and impossible to read — over the course of one long, stormy night.

Summary
In the haze of 1995 Chicago, Louis finds safety in routine. He pours his being into physics, works at a dusty bookstore, and keeps his social circle small. But the arrival of Harry Styles is the opposite of everything steady, pulling Louis into the unfamiliarity of touch, want, and blazing devotion.
Their story unfolds in a quiet dorm and the late night softness of the diner down the street. It’s built on the fragile line between breaking and healing, and what follows is the strange beauty of surrender and a love that refuses to be ordinary.

Summary
They lay there, Harry doesn’t know how long. He probably snoozes a little bit too; well, he knows Louis does at least. Harry breathes in the scent of Louis’s schampoo, newly washed hair soft against his chin. Sometimes, when he’s alone in a hotel room, or alone in one of their houses, he imagines this exact moment. Skin to skin, warm and safe, under the covers. Sometimes, when he’s alone, he cries, thinking of this. Sometimes, when he’s alone, he falls asleep to the imaginary sounds of Louis' voice in his head, imagining they are this close.
Just a short story of shifting back into normal life, or a life where we never know what comes next.

Summary
Florence is a city that makes you believe in stories. Ones written in sun-warmed cobblestone and espresso steam, in shared glances and half-remembered songs. Louis arrives in search of inspiration. He finds Harry instead.
He’s beautiful, soft, impossibly easy to fall for. Too easy.
But as they sink into something tender and all-consuming, Louis starts to notice the things he can’t explain. Dreams he wakes from too breathless to speak aloud. Lines in his journal he doesn’t remember writing. The feeling that none of this love is accidental.
He tells himself not to look too closely. But some stories won’t stay on the page.

Summary
They had never been face to face before now. They’d never touched, skin to skin, until Harry landed a punch to his face, high on his cheekbone.
Louis shoved him off and was pulling his fist back from Harry’s abdomen before he realized his face wasn’t tingling because of the pain.
It pooled out from his cheek, over his face, down his neck and spine. A shiver in the late September night. Heat, sparks - whatever you wanted to fucking call it.
or The Tomlinson and Cox gangs have hated each other for over forty years. Harry Styles, the grandson of Gritty Cox, was freshly back to the city after uni when, on his first night out, he punched the Tomlinson heir in the face. It shouldn’t have mattered, their gangs have done worse to each other. But all it took was one single touch to recognize your soulmate. Louis was adamant that being soulmates changed nothing, not who they were or which family they were loyal to. Or, at least, it shouldn’t have.
