💜 You Should Be Here With Me by @lululawrence {NR, 34k}
The festive period is a traditionally hectic one in the world of Premier League football, and this year is no different. A lot is riding on how Manchester United is able to come through the fixtures in the coming weeks.
Louis and his teammates know all too well the pressure that is on their shoulders. They need to prove, not just to fans of the club but the entire league, that they still have what it takes to be a team worthy of fighting for the top of the table.
Throw in the fact that Louis is all too aware that he's not getting any younger in a profession that demands your peak physical fitness year round and the incredibly fit Harry Styles, who is part of the club's social media team, and this year's festive period might just be the most important one yet.
💜 secrets don't make friends by devilinmybrain / @thedevilinmybrain {E, 30k}
5 times Louis' crew knew too much, and the 1 time they thought they knew, but didn't really. Not at all.
💜 Longing like a Searchlight by Cyantific / @beyondxmeasure {E, 27k}
Louis moves in with his friend Harry and soon thoughts of his new flatmate are anything but innocent, and Louis has no control when it comes to acting on those urges when he's alone. It doesn't take long for his simple, primal impulses to turn into deep, urgent longing the more time they spend together.
Will an unexpected family event that takes Harry home for the weekend be the catalyst that finally brings them together or what tears them apart when Louis overhears what Harry reveals to his mother about his true feelings?
The Five times Louis almost gets caught during a salacious moment of self care and the one time he did...a roommates to lovers fic with lots of feels.
💜 The Future Is Now by jacaranda_bloom / @jacaranda-bloom {E, 16k}
Louis has a great life, really, he does. He studies hard, has great friends, a boring but decent job at the carnival, and of course, he has Harry, the best flatmate anyone could ask for. All that’s missing is someone to love. But when a strange new fortune-telling machine appears at the carnival, Louis’ life takes an unexpected turn. Could this be his chance to finally find love and will it be where he least expects it?
Or the five times Louis follows the fortunes to seek out his true love, and the one time he realises that what he's been searching for might've been right in front of him the whole time.
💜 I Wanna Feel (Your Love) by @infinitelymint {E, 15k}
Five moments in Louis and Harry’s life based on five of the biggest emotions: fear, sadness, love, anger and joy.
Or the one with a little bit of everything, featuring a proposal, a serenade, timid conversation, heated arguments, a misunderstanding, small insecurities, plenty of ‘I love you’-s and a bit of shagging – also bonus (re)appearance of Louis’ Paris!sweater and a pair of banana-patterned socks.
💜 Treat You Like A Gentleman by @justanothershadeofblue {E, 12k}
5 times that Harry Styles was unsatisfied by his dates, and one time Louis Tomlinson helped him find what he had been missing.
💜 love put us two together (but we don't know how to stay) by we_are_the_same / @so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed {T, 10k}
Harry is Louis' best friend. But in his dreams, they are more.
Or: four dreams in which Harry and Louis figure it out, and the one time Louis decides to make his dreams come true.
💜 Today and Every Day by crimsontheory / @ireallysawanangel {E, 10k}
The five times Louis tries and fails to propose to Harry and the one time he succeeds completely by accident.
💜 Dough Re Mi by anditsonlyforthebrave {NR, 10k}
“Welcome to Dough Re Mi, may I take your order?”
Harry snorts, lips curling in a half-scoff. Who the hell calls a bakery Dough Re Mi? What, did they pull the name out of their asses?
“I’ll just take a scone with cream and jam. Black coffee. Large.” He doesn’t bother looking up from his phone, his thumb flicking aimlessly through his emails.
5 times Harry calls Louis omega, and the one time he calls him my omega.
💜 Fire and Ice by YesIsAWorld / @louandhazaf {E, 9k}
Harry really wants to come at the same time as Louis. Or, four times they misfire and the one time they get it right.
💜 haven't you heard by @allwaswell16 {M, 8k}
Harry Styles has been in love with Louis Tomlinson since they were eighteen. After six years together, Harry is ready to propose to the love of his life. The holidays strike him as the perfect time for a romantic proposal, but his well-meaning friends and family (including his self-appointed best friend, Niall) seem to thwart him at every turn.
Or the four times Harry tries to propose, and the one time he gets it right.
💜 Would Walk The Aisle For You by galactic_larry / @galacticlarry {T, 6k}
If Louis had to make a list of all his problems, his mum trying to set him up with every gay man ever would be very close to the top.
What happens when Harry volunteers to be his fake boyfriend just to get her to stop?
Or the five times Louis and Harry pretend to be in love and the one time they realise they actually are.
💜 You Put the Boom Boom Into My Heart by @kingsofeverything {T, 5k}
Harry's been trying all summer to come up with a way to show Louis how much he means to him before he leaves for college.
Or five times Harry fails to win Wham! tickets and one time he succeeds.
💜 Don't Delete The Kisses by @louislittletomlintum {T, 5k}
The first time that Louis realised he was in love with Harry it was with a fag hanging half out of his mouth and staring in through a grubby kitchen window, caked in years of debris.
five times louis is longing and one time he isn't
💜 now i'm tracin' all my steps to you by @alwaysxlarrie {T, 5k}
Of all the things Harry was prepared for this summer, Louis Tomlinson and his wonderful, wonderful scent isn't one of them. It probably shouldn't be as shocking as it is that it makes Harry want to nest. There's only one slight problem -- Harry and nesting aren't exactly on familiar terms. At all.
This does not stop Harry from borrowing ("borrowing") Louis' things all throughout summer, though. Oops?
💜 Let Your Hair Down While You Still Can by @alivingfire {E, 5k}
“Could you, maybe, play with my hair?” Louis can’t see much, but he can feel the rush of heat in Harry’s cheeks when he blushes. “It’s what my mum used to do when I couldn’t sleep.”
“Well, if that’s what Mummy Anne did, who am I to disagree?” Louis teases lightly, then runs his hand slowly through Harry’s hair. It’s still a little sticky from the product the hair team put in before the show, still a little crunchy from dried sweat because Harry won’t have access to a shower (with a decent amount of elbow room, at least, unlike the one on the bus) until the morning, but with each stroke of Louis’ hand through lank curls Harry goes looser, looser.
💜 There's Fur Everywhere by LadyLondonderry / @londonfoginacup {G, 4k}
Five times Harry finds someone sleeping in his car.
One time he makes them sleep in his house.
💜 How Long Will I Love You by @neondiamond {T, 4k}
Five times Louis thinks Harry is the love of his life and the one time he says it out loud.
💜 Changing Weather (For Worse or For Better) by @haztobegood {M, 3k}
Five times it's raining and one time it stops.
💜 Gucci Down To My Drawers by @beanno28 {E, 2k}
Louis has been hired by Gucci to photograph the one and only Harry Styles. The shoot doesn't go quite as he plans but he isn't coming to complain when all is said and done.
OR The five times Louis is innocently caught in a compromising position and the one time it's not so innocent.
