1D Rom-Com fic fest

Welcome to the Rom Com One Direction Fic Fest!

Whether you miss the classic 2000s rom coms, think One Direction could be the perfect actors in one, or have watched most of the Christmas movies out there, this fic fest is designed for you!

These are the rules:

To participate, you must be +18 years old at the time of signing up.

All fics must have a minimum word count of 2,500, but there's no maximum!

All fics must feature at least one member of One Direction in the main pairing, and we accept all pairings.

Please make sure your fic is completed before posting it to the AO3 collection. We do not accept works in progress (WIP).

We do not accept any underage, major character death, or rape fics. All fics must have a happy ending.

Although it is not a Christmas fic fest, since it takes place in December and most Christmas movies are romantic comedies, only five Christmas fics will be accepted.

Prompts will be assigned on a first come, first served basis, but participants are also welcome to use their own prompts.

This fic fest is not anonymous, so feel free to share your snippets with us by tagging us #romcom1dficfest.

If you think you won't be able to make the deadline, you need to inform the moderator as soon as possible and we will find a solution.

Please check your email regularly, as I will contact you there.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to contact me.

I can't wait to read your amazing rom com fics! 💖

Harry Styles' Guide to Dating your Co-Star

Harry Styles has never starred in a rom-com. When he is offered a role in one, alongside thriller-star Louis Tomlinson, he sees his opportunity to expand his horizon. But Harry's golden rule of dating is simple. "Never date your co-star." When Louis and Harry's chemistry becomes crystal clear to everyone, Harry is determined to prove to everyone that you don't have to fall in love with your co-star. Even if you really like kissing them on screen...

Pairing: Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson

Words: 26k

Louis Tomlinson is the walking definition of unlucky. However, a chance meeting with a handsome stranger at a Masquerade Ball throws his life upside down, turning him into the unluckiest man. Is it a twist of fate, or something else entirely?

A 'Just My Luck' AU - Featuring the amazing McFly as per the original!

"'I was just erm… looking for…' Louis' mouth went dry as his eyes fell on the most attractive figure of a man he had ever seen in his life. Dressed in a white suit with a black floral design, he had legs for days, with short, dark curly hair swept off his face and piercing green eyes that were hidden behind a delicate masquerade mask. 'Him! I was actually going to ask this lovely gentleman to dance.'

'Him?' The raven haired man scoffed, eyes alight with amusement as he waved a pen at the beautiful stranger, gesturing up and down his body. 'Have you seen those legs? He doesn't have the coordination to dance -'

'I'd love to,' the masked man cut in, a sultry smirk on his lips as he descended the stairs until he was toe to toe with Louis."

A Sneak Peek into the first chapter of my fic for @romcom1dficfest

Harry cursed as he rushed out of the campus library, narrowly dodging one of his professors as he sprinted down the corridor. His study group had planned to end at three o'clock like usual, which would give him enough time to pack up and head over to the coffee shop so he could meet his friends. Archie, however, had other plans. Once the study session had come to an end, Archie had glued himself to Harry's side, rambling on about the different teaching methods they had gone over and how he didn't really understand it when their lecturer, Phoebe, had taught them it but he had managed to grasp the content now that Harry had explained it to him. Which was really sweet of him, but did make Harry twenty minutes late to the coffee shop. Twenty minutes that Louis would tease him about for the next week or so.

Summary:

It wasn't like Harry Styles needed a housemate.

It certainly wasn't like Harry Styles needed Louis Tomlinson as his housemate, the musical snob who only listened to a hand-picked selection of 14 artists and who had imposed a no-dating rule between the two upon moving in.

They could manage to be housemates and friends, right? Right?
