“You’re shameless,” he sighs, but there’s no denying the way his cheeks have gone pink from Harry looking at him. He gestures down at Harry’s legs. “Spread ‘em.” -- @crazyupsetter

Flustered Marcel made him want to just rumple him up and then wrap him in blankets. None of this would do. -- @briannamarguerite

It’s still dark outside, Louis can hardly see without his contacts in or glasses on, his head is still a little foggy from this early morning ambush, but he’s going to have phone sex with his boyfriend. -- @cherrystreet

Harry hands back the phone. He’s got Harry’s phone number. Okay. That’s fine. Whatever. -- @allwaswell16

With her instructions, Harry felt like he had been entrusted with protecting the Crown Jewels instead of a small plot of daffodils. -- @casuallyhl

You made my sister think you are stalking me and I got to tell you, Louis, it doesn't look good. -- @badger-bear

Fucking ADHD.  -- @parmahamlarrie

“Um, where do you live?” Comes out of his mouth instead of anything resembling a normal phrase. -- @larryficwriter

“Why are you getting your nipples pierced?” Louis asks like a barista would ask what type of milk you want in your coffee. -- @zanniscaramouche

💫 Miss Missing You by harriet_vane

Title: Ain't No Tellin' Who's In Charge Here

Author: whoknows / @crazyupsetter

Summary: The thing about Louis’ and Harry’s dynamic is that while Louis is the instigator of 99% of the foolishness, Harry will always come back at him with something ten times dirtier than whatever Louis had thought up. Of course, Louis can’t let that go, so he does something else, so Harry has to do something else, and then it’s a vicious cycle that continues until one of them makes a plea for a truce.

It’s like that even when they’re at home. Sometimes it’s like that especially while they’re at home, because Louis gets bored easily and Harry is just such an easy target. The point is that the kind of foolishness that Louis is known for doesn’t stop when the cameras stop rolling, so when Louis lets himself into Harry’s bedroom at 5:30 in the morning to annoy Harry into waking up before he goes for a run is completely normal and to be expected.

Except that it turns out not to be so normal.

Dance like Warriors on a Battlefield by @crazyupsetter

Down in the arena, the triumphant gladiator places his foot on the back of the loser, holding him there as he waits for instruction on his next move. Kill or let live. It’s barbaric, really, the bloodlust involved in this sport. Louis is pretty sure that if it wasn’t for his distaste for the killing there would be a lot more blood soaking that sand.

@vanderrbilt is sending love and appreciation out to @alivingfire, @afirethatcannotdie, @crazyupsetter, @whoknows, @cherrystreet, @juliusschmidt, @gloriaandrews, @100percentsassy, @karamelised, and @backonefish! Come and collect your props!

happy monday friends <3

Louis smiled a little and even as he and Liam started to walk towards the school entrance and leaving Harry behind, he knew he’d have a hard time focusing the entire day. -- @donotdialnine

“Louis Tomlinson, bless his heart,” Greg says, “Has not once in all the years I’ve known him been on time for anything.” -- @londonfoginacup

Louis plugged his ears as all mature twenty-six year olds would do to avoid life. -- @2tiedships2

"You coming?" He hears Louis ask from up ahead of him. And no, that's exactly what he's trying to avoid at the moment. -- @@ireallysawanangel

Harry just sort of stares at him for a bit. It’s not that Louis has never spoken to him before, it’s just that Harry isn’t very good at… Breathing and stuff around Louis. -- @maggieisalarrie

“To be fair, I did bend over the desk on purpose,” Louis’ voice comes crackling in the headphones. Harry practically breaks his neck whipping his head around at the sound of it, gaping at him through the glass panel. “You can’t really blame him for getting a little excited about that, can you?” -- @crazyupsetter

Harry blushed and shrugged his shoulders as he willed himself to speak without fucking up again. “I’m 21.” He did it. -- @harryventura

Oh Christ. As his dresser, it is now literally Harry’s job description to touch Louis Tomlinson. Sometimes in fairly inappropriate places. Harry can’t decide whether this is the best thing that’s ever happened to him or the worst. By Monday morning, Harry has decided. This is the worst thing that’s ever happened to him. -- @balanceds

It’s not like Louis was exactly planning on saying that but he’s said it now and the look in Harry’s eyes isn’t one of fear or repulsion, it’s of curiosity and willingness and Louis can practically hear his mind screaming “yes! Fuck me right now!” because his mind is screaming for him to fuck Harry, too. -- @star55
