    Summary

    “About last night,” Harry says suddenly, as if he’d been debating on whether to say anything. Louis whips back around to look at him.

    “Do not finish that thought,” Louis says just as abruptly.

    Harry looks at him oddly, as if assessing him. With a small frown, it seems the assessment is over. “I only wish to say that you do not have to dwell on it. The rest of the men will surely forget by tonight.”

    “And you?” Louis asks, raising an eyebrow. “Will you forget?”

    “I will remember every second of it fondly,” the Lord says, no trace of a tease in his words.

     
    or, a Victorian era au where Louis pines for his overprotective older brother’s very charming best friend.

    Summary

    Louis was the first one down the row for their group. If he hadn’t been they would have never met.

    He was turned around, walking backwards and saying to Liam, “No, I’ll get you to a real footie match next,” when he bumped into someone.

    “Oops,” Louis laughed, tripping over his own feet. A hand curled around his upper arm as he nearly fell over the seat in front of him. “Sorry about that, mate.”

    He turned around, still teetering in his vans, to apologize again, but the words dried in his throat. Another hand gripped his other elbow, steadying him, but all Louis could see were green eyes and dimples.

    “Hi,” the man laughed, a bright, bubbling sound. “Are you okay?”

     

    Or Louis is in his first year of law school, Harry is a junior on the swim team dreaming of the Olympics, and they both agree that they don't have time for anything more than friends with benefits... right?

    Summary

    There’s nothing to complain about when Harry’s walking around their flat with his cock swinging about, nothing to complain about when Harry’s pressing himself up against Louis’ naked backside when he’s reaching for a mug in their cupboards, and nothing to complain about when Harry’s got his hand firm on Louis’ arse when they’re cuddling on the couch.

    So, in reality, it’s really fucking weird, and Louis knows that.

    But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t like it.

    Summary

    “Real farmers love mornings.” Louis hated that sentiment. But then he wasn’t a real farmer.

The flower boy who is even wearing floral-patterned clothes as he sells bouquets. Suddenly, Saturday mornings are the highlight of his week.
