The Murmur of Yearning by MediaWhore @mediawhorefics

Length: 93k

Four years ago, Harry Styles was forced into a marriage of convenience to enrich and ally both his and his promised’s families. The sudden, and slightly suspicious, death of the Marquess of Haxshire, however, brings great disturbance to Crescentfield Hall and, as his late’s husband’s closest male relative, Harry unexpectedly finds himself the head of a family he never felt he belonged to. Between a meddling distant cousin hellbent on inserting himself in Harry’s life, his wicked and mistrustful mother-in-law and his late husband’s advisors refusing to help or take him seriously, Harry struggles in the fight to keep what he’s earned and make the Estate finally feel like home. Luckily, he doesn’t stand completely alone and finds himself an unlikely ally in Mr Tomlinson, the elusive Land Stewart who has been taking care of the property in the shadows for years. Louis Tomlinson is caring, patient, and unlike everyone else, he doesn’t seem to think Harry committed a murder.

FAIR ISLE, SCOTLAND.

As a B&B owner on the most remote of all the British Isles, Louis Tomlinson is used to spending the coldest half of the year in complete isolation, with his dog and the sea as sole companions. Until, one day, a mysterious stranger on a quest to rebuild himself rents a room for the winter.

Gerard loved how Frank treated him like a human and not a fucking experiment or as a burden. Gerard loved every inch of Frank, and loved how much he cared about him, and how much he just wanted Gerard to be okay. Gerard had few episodes, but when he did Frank was there to make sure his heart was beating, and that his skin was still intact. He loved how amazing and perfect Frank was. Frank had saved him, on multiple occasions, and Gerard owed Frank his everything. He loved him so much, and he knew he would never be able to repay him, but he would try for all eternity.
