1D Rare Pair Fest

it’s me and my plus one at the afterlife

It all starts because Liam Payne makes a stupid decision.

Well, that’s not exactly true. Technically it starts when Louis turns 16 and becomes the Slayer, the chosen one to fight all evil forces in the world and to prevent the apocalypse, blah blah, major responsibility, saving the world, et cetera et cetera.

But this time? This time Liam did something really, really dumb.

[Or: Louis is the Slayer, Nick and Harry are vampires, and Liam and Niall make up the rest of the Scoobies.]

Harry never feared the Gods. His mother would always scold him and remind him that he needs to respect the Gods if he doesn’t want to get in trouble with them. She would participate in the rituals for them, bring sacrifices ranging from flowers to live lambs but Harry never saw the point. There were legends, myths and stories about meeting Gods and summoning them. But that’s all they were - stories.

Gravitational Pull by silvered_glass

Rating: Explicit   Words:10064 Relationships: Niall Horan/Harry Styles, Niall Horan & Zayn Malik & Liam Payne & Harry Styles & Louis Tomlinson Additional Tags: IN SPACE!, Oral Sex, Hand Jobs, space is not as glamorous as Harry expected

Summary:

Harry thought working in space was going to be more glamorous. Instead, he’s covered in gravy more often than not, and the most exciting part of his day is when he puts the bins out.

Also, there’s literally a planet between him and Niall now.

But maybe that’s what it’ll take for them to finally get together.

Zayn Malik x Nick Grimshaw (12.5K, Mature)

“So,” Nick says, “Still have a few things left to do tonight, you say? Could I help at all?”

“You want to get your hands a little dirty, do you?” Zayn prods.

“Well, I might as well, I suppose.” Nick takes his coat and scarf off and scans the garage for a safe, clean place to set them down. “Maybe be slightly less useless next time something happens? Plus, you look desperate for another pair of hands.”

Zayn motions to a leather bench seat on the ground a few yards away. “You can set your stuff there. Cleanest seat in the house.”

“Hmmm,” Nick hums, walking back over towards Zayn, rolling up the sleeves of his black button down to reveal very slim but toned forearms. “So,” he says when he’s next to him, peering into the engine, “how can I be of service?”

Nick’s car breaks down at the start of a road trip and Zayn’s the mechanic who tows him to his small town, where it looks like he’ll be stuck for a few days.

Our Love is Timeless by lululawrence

Niall Horan/Shawn Mendes  |  6.3k  |  NR

He rinsed out his shampoo and began to scrub at his body. Turning around to rinse his back and wash his front, Shawn was not prepared to be met with a cursing blond Irishman.

Letting out a rather loud, high pitched scream and covering himself as best he could, Shawn backed up into the wall behind him, which also turned off the shower.

“Thanks, mate. Was hoping not to get my clothes entirely soaked,” the man said as he began stepping out of the shower stall. “Say, what year is it?”

“I…what?” Shawn sputtered. “You just show up, fully clothed, in a stranger’s shower and your first question is what year it is? How the fuck did you get in here? Why my shower? Who are you?”

“Well, yeah. I guess so. I’ve not quite got a handle of the whole time traveling thing yet.”

Or the one where Shawn falls for Niall, who just happens to be a time traveler. The course of true love never did run smooth.

5 times Zayn and Harry annoyed their friends* with snogging and 1 time the tables were turned.

*Mainly Niall. He does get his payback.

Summary:

It’s not staring if it’s through a camera lens. Zayn wants to capture it all, from the cut of his cheekbones, the way he holds himself, the way his eyes crinkle when he smiles.

Zayn just wants to capture all of him.

Good Boys Do Bad Things

Louis/Bressie /// 8k /// Explicit

Bressie was a fucking stud and Louis couldn’t fully be blamed for his actions when Bressie was around. Harry had made fun of Louis relentlessly for like four months back in college after Louis had admitted there wasn’t much he wouldn’t do for six feet two. And Bressie was six feet fucking six.

Or, the one where Louis doesn’t mean to fall for his boss.
