    Summary

    “I need you to be my boyfriend.”

    Ben’s mouth falls open in shock. “What?”

    “Not for real, of course!” Devi notices that Ben’s expression is still one of absolute confusion. She guesses she owes him the real explanation. “It’s just, Paxton won’t date me until I’ve had experience being with someone."

    or; After Paxton tells Devi he won't date her until she's been in a relationship with someone else first, she makes the natural decision: pose as Ben Gross' girlfriend.

    Summary

    “Uh-huh,” Ben says, emerging from the crook of her neck with a triumphant grin. “Tell me again how my talk is cheap.”

    As Devi stares down into his face, she feels a laugh bubbling up from her chest and presses her lips together.

    “What?” he asks, eyes glinting.

    She gingerly combs the errant strands of her hair from his gloss-smudged lips.

    He flushes. “Oh.”

    She gives him one lingering kiss before sitting up and drinking him in some more. “I wanted to do that earlier,” she confesses. “After graduation. You left before I could.”

    Something flits across his face, an emotion so acute Devi can feel the aftershocks of it skitter down her spine even if she can’t name it. Then he’s closing his eyes and straining up toward her and they’re kissing again, a gentle wave of want slowly and steadily overwhelming whatever the previous moment held that’d been too hot to touch with their bare hands.

    or, Devi and Ben boink

    Summary

    When Mr. Shapiro establishes the rule that Ben and Devi aren't allowed to argue in his class anymore, they have to find a way to communicate in class without him realizing. They also have to figure out how that not labeled but exclusive arrangement of theirs is going to work and what the rules are.

    (Add on to " Jealousy, Hickeys And A Lot Of Bickering". That oneshot should probably be read before reading this but I'm sure you can figure it out as you go too. Prequel to "Your Sweatshirt Is Gross".)

    Summary

    “Go out on a date with me?” he asks, lifting their hands up to press a kiss to her knuckles.

    Devi’s face explodes in a pink blush, and she bites back a smile, and Ben knows what she’s going to say before she even does.

    “Yeah, ok.”

    Summary

    Devi rolls her eyes. “What do you want, Ben?” she asks, standing up and leaning against the door. “And, no, I will not be giving up on being valedictorian early.”

    He shrugs. “That’s fine, you can just give up on time, then,” he says. “Actually, I’m here because I wanted to take you to get coffee, and to try to find a time to renegotiate our pact for college. I don’t think young republicans really applies anymore.”

    Devi looks back at Keerthi, who mouths do it and makes a shoo motion with her hands.

    “Fine,” Devi says, grabbing her jacket and keys. “But if you murder me, I’m going to be sorely disappointed in you.”

    “I’m not gonna murder you, David,” he says, following her out. “Though, if you died in my presence, you would die happy.”

    She rolls her eyes. “In your dreams, Gross.”

    Summary

    Relationships have to start somewhere. Or, once you've jumped into a garbage chute with people you kind of either decide to like them or you don't.

    Basically, Han and Leia from trying-not-to-think-about-her to declarations of love at the least convenient times. (ANH through just after the end of ROTJ)

    Summary

    That’s what this is, it is electric. Charged. Alight and alive, glowing in the dark. He and Devi, it seems, are like something nocturnal— they’re sharp and pointed and awake during the day, yes, but there are layers to their relationship, and it seems to Ben, that the only time they are able to peel them back is in the dark.

    Someone bumps into Devi and she crashes into him, colliding like a meteor into the Earth, and he catches her. She rights herself, still pressed against him, and there is a moment in between her looking up at him, and the song ending, that Ben is certain he is going to kiss her.

    Summary

    Harry put his hand over his heart as if Louis had wounded him. “You’re so harsh, my liege! Perhaps you need to relieve some tension…” He let his voice trail off suggestively.

    “The day I ask YOU to relieve tension is the day I lose all my wits and join the Imperials,” Louis said. “It will never happen”

    Summary

    Working as a mechanic for the Resistance was never supposed to be easy. The risks were at the back of everyone's mind, between the rising first order and loom of war over their heads everyone was on edge, any day could be their last. But what wasn't supposed to be a problem was him, or rather, the feelings that were beginning to arise in his presence. They called him the best pilot in the resistance, perhaps even the galaxy, but he'd never look her way...right?

    Rey watched him avoid her eye, watched Poe Dameron shrink, somehow. Not in a way that made him seem smaller or somehow lesser. In a way where he became a little more human; a little more attainable.

    Summary

    He steps up to the plate, eyes glazing over as he watches Harry chew sunflower seeds, his jaw moving obnoxiously and exaggeratedly. His eyes drag down Harry’s body, settling on his large bulge, accentuated in those sinful pinstripe pants. The lines cut across it just right, curving where he’s thickest. Louis wants to crawl across the dirt on his knees and just take what Harry gives him.

    Louis shuts his eyes for a moment, opening them to find Harry staring at him with a smug expression. He fucking knows. Louis gets into position and waits for the pitch. He swings when Harry throws, missing the ball just barely. Strike one.

    or Louis is a Boston Red Sox and Harry is a New York Yankee.

    Summary

    Louis raises his eyebrows. “You want to be friends with benefits?”

    Harry shrugs, “If that’s what you want to call it then, yeah. Why not?”

    Louis brings his hand to rub the stubble on his jaw, seeming lost in his own thoughts. “Okay, I’ll agree on three conditions.”

    “One: no sleep overs.”

    Harry nods, “Okay."

    “Two: if either of us finds someone else we call it off no questions asked.”

    Harry isn’t sure why his stomach turns at that, but he agrees anyway.

    “And three,” Louis’ face hardens, “you cannot, under any circumstances, fall in love with me.”

    Harry snorts, “Yeah, okay,” he chuckles lightly.

    or- When One Direction goes on hiatus, Harry and Louis reconnect, becoming the friends they once were during their days in the X Factor. It doesn’t take long for their friendship to evolve into friends with benefits, unable to resist the physical attraction between them. Things get complicated when feelings get in the way.

    Summary

    "You know my heart - so tell me honestly, did you ever really want this?
    So I’ll sing this song for every word that comes out wrong
    But I’ll be okay – is that what you want me to say?"

    In the end, it's neither the fame or the pressure, nor Management or the constant hiding and denying that tears them apart. Or maybe it's a sum of all and so much more on top.
    In the end, it's Harry.

    When Harry leaves the band - leaves Louis - to pursue his dreams of a solo career, he breaks much more than just One Direction.
    It's a gamble and a new start for each of the boys but while Harry walked away smiling, finally having got everything he apparently dreamt of, Louis is left to pick the pieces up.

    Some hearts don't break even, some are simply shattered. So can you really learn to un-love someone?
