hello, hope you're alright!
could you make me a fic rec where the main plot is an arranged marriage but like in modern world? not really looking for anything historical or fantasy built world. basically i'm looking for all sorts of fics that look like this one i just read (and highly recommend): https://archiveofourown.org/works/66126469
my main interest is reading this more practical (some might argue not really as romantic but there's still undeniable chemistry that just happen to work in a more straight forward way i guess?) dynamic between them.
it's fine if this is too specific, i'll take whatever you can find, thank you đ¤
Hi, anon! You're very welcome! I haven't read that fic yet, but I always try to read every Big Bang fic. So I'll be getting to that one eventually! Glad to hear it's so highly recommended! I'm excited to read it! I'll include it here so others can check it out, too! And then I'll list a few others that I think fit what you're looking for...
Finding Pieces We Can Fit by larryftnoctrl / @the-larry-way
At 32 years of age, Louis admits defeat in the search for a life partner. His mother introduces him to a similarly disillusioned but still hopelessly romantic Harry. These two forces collide and collude in the best and worst of ways, determined to make things work.
Miso cannot be bothered by their shenanigans. She can see the writing on the wall.
Teenage Rebellion Never Worked Out So Well by panda_bear21
âIâm an adult!â He glanced down at Harry, who seemed anything but at the moment, where he was definitely on the brink of a temper tantrum. âWeâre both adults!â Jay glanced to Anne again, before breathing out a heavy sigh. âYes, but youâre both adults that do not have jobs and who live off of our money⌠Which means, you have to do what we say⌠or youâll have to find a new place to live.â âYou wouldnât do that.â Louis dared, hoping his glare was enough to guilt trip his mother into calling the whole thing off. Or to tell them that it had all just been a huge joke and they werenât actually being forced into marrying a complete stranger. âOh, but we would.â
Or the super clichĂŠ arranged marriage fic where things escalate way too quickly.

Louis isn't expecting it when his parents drag him back to the life of aristocracy that he had left behind three years ago. Pressured to marry in order to save his family from financial and social ruin, Louis finds himself caught between wanting to be selfish and doing what he needs to do for the sake of his sisters, if no one else.
Befriending Prince Harry of Wales was not part of that plan, and neither was joining him in an elaborate ruse to fool the country and more importantly, their parents.
Marrying him had not been a part of the plan at all.
What If We Rewrite The Stars, Say You Were Made To Be Mine by moonchild_1611
âSunshine, youâll never know how much I regret that every single day, how much I hate myself for being a chicken.â
âYou are a very cute chicken, please donât hate yourselfâ, Harry closes his eyes, smiling through the tears.
Louis lets out a wet laugh, holding his face and resting his forehead on Harryâs, âWhat do I do with you?â
âKeep me?â
âForever.â
An arranged marriage AU<3 Harry once believed love would be burning red, but it's golden.
Not sure if omegaverse is what you're after, but I had to include this one as well...
Here's Your Perfect by @brightgolden
All finesse tossed aside, Harry yanks the envelope from Miss Edenâs hand. He hears her laugh, bright and cheerful as he tears into the envelope. His eyes skipping over the complimentary paragraph congratulating him for being assigned, settling into the centre of the letter - the name of his future mate.
And suddenly, Harry feels there isnât enough air in this world for him to inhale as he recites the name in his mind. Louis Tomlinson.
OR
In the world where mates are assigned to everyone and deposited to their door when an agreeable partner is found for them, Alpha Louis has recently been given his. However, he is nothing like the type of alpha that the omega academy prepares Harry for.
