TOP14: anomalation (previously significationary)
1. Runaway Child, Running Wild
Set in vaguely medieval times, Harry has to marry Louis even though he can barely stand to be around him. Harry tames horses and Louis tames him.
2. Clear Eyes, Full Hearts
Harry notices some kids watching them, a few freshmen who still think itâs cool to cut classes and cut through peoplesâ back yards.
Louis follows his eyes and gets abruptly uncomfortable. âI should go.â
âYou donât want to call me a faggot again first?â Harry says. âMaybe you can spit at me. Or push me. To keep up your image, right?â
âDonât tell me you forget that now. You should never forget that, because I never can. When Iâm thirty and living in New York or something, when Iâm married to someone that genuinely loves me and is proud to be seen with me, Iâll still remember how that piece of shit football player from Nowhere, Texas made me feel less than nothing. Howâs that for fucking closure.â
Harryâs eighteen and trying to figure everything out. Louis is his neighbor whoâs in a suspicious relationship and also very possibly Harryâs soul mate, but that's stupid. Harry's just going to take things slow with him. Slow doesn't really seem to be an option with Louis, though.Â
Punk!AU Lou Tomlinson was just looking for another one-night stand. He wasnât expecting Harry to just throw his heart at him. But then, he wasnât expecting to catch it, either. Things only get more complicated from there.
Harry's a pop star. Louis is a reporter who hates pop stars. He's assigned to cover Harry's band for one year. He has a sneaking suspicion they're all going to be terrible.
Louis is a massive idiot who ends up in prison because of his boyfriend - though he should really make that his ex-boyfriend soon. Inside, he meets Haz, a young inmate who is very intimidating. Kind of.
Harryâs a varsity football player and Louis is the weirdo new kid who wonât answer any of his questions. Them being best mates as kids before Harry moved away doesnât mean as much as Harry thought it did, or maybe it means more.
Louis doesn't believe in vampires. Harry is one.
Louis works at a flower shop and is bored. Harry's too skinny and too defensive and likes to touch the rose petals. Harry's boyfriend likes to hit him.
The one where Louis and Harry end up kidnapped by the same man who makes them have sex with each other. Louis has learned not to care, and Harry just wants to be friends.
Louis is a client of the dollhouse. He tells himself Echo is just a malfunctioning doll.
Harry figures it out and his eyes widen. âYouâre homeless?â
âYep. And see, that right there is why I didnât tell you,â Louis says. âThat expression on your fucking face.â
Harry tries to fix his face. âWhat expression?â
âThat, that pity or whatever the fuck it is. Iâm happier this way.â
âHow is that⌠so you were telling the truth,â Harry says after a second. âHe was hurting you.â
Louis is inscrutable. âYep. He was.â
Louis really should've just told the truth from the start. It's hard enough hiding an alpha and omega in the band. The last thing he should've done was lie about it.
Harry's oblivious and sweet, Louis is head-over-heels for him, and everything goes wrong a couple times.
AU where everyone's a werewolf except Liam, Harry and Isaac become gangly best friends, and Louis being in charge isn't always a good thing.
