đ From Dust to Lust by jacaranda_bloom / @jacaranda-bloom
(E, 45k, fate) the one where Louis and Harry are fly-in-fly-out mine workers, coincidences are totally a thing, karaoke is an underrated form of foreplay, and the universe most definitely works in mysterious ways.
đ You're Not My Type (still I fall) by Imogenlee / @imogenleewriter
(M, 38k, omegaverse) This is just a bit of rain; it'll blow over. Then Harry will just... well, alright, he isn't entirely sure what to do when the rain stops because he'll still be stuck and lost.Â
đ I Keep Looking For Magic by @lululawrence
(NR, 36k, Christmas) Harry cannot go home alone when he had promised to bring a significant other again. This leaves him with little choice but to find someone to pretend they are his fiance.
đ Single Bells Ring by nonsensedarling / @absoloutenonsense
(M, 16k, non traditional omegaverse) A holiday singles event is not where Louis wants to be tonight, but there he is, helping his best friend find love. Just as Louis is settling in, ready to have a terrible time, he meets the fittest alpha heâs ever come across.
đ Breathe me in, breathe me out by @lunarheslwt
(G, 14k, omegaverse) Louis is drawn into a quaint candle shop in his desire to find ways to soothe himself while struggling with touch depri. It takes him two more run-ins and with the lovely alpha sales assistant, and a drop, to figure out the source of the scent that imprints upon him and calms his omega.
đ High heels on, 'm feeling alive by thebreadvan / @thebreadvansstuff
(M, 14k, uni) Harry damages a car when drunkenly stumbling home after a fun night out with his friends. Feeling horribly guilty, he tries to find the owner and make it up to him.
đ Eyes on the Horizon by yeah_alright / @uhoh-but-yeah-alright
(E, 12k, age difference) Freshly dumped, recently fired, and about to turn 40, Harry's friends insist on taking him skydiving to cheer him up.
đ Lacy Little Secret by hazzahtomlinson / @itsnotreal
(E, 6k, bachelor party) Harry learned a very valuable lesson that day: always check to make sure itâs the right car before getting in.
đ  Iâll Keep You Warm by @parmahamlarrie
(T, 6k, neighbors) Heâs lived on the same street for years and barely would recognize the buildings, let alone his neighbours. Thatâs all about to change however, due to a broken key and an unexpected snow storm.
đ Love Mail by @neondiamond
(G, 5k, neighbors) the one where Harry and Louis keep mistakenly receiving each otherâs mail (and also fall in love)
đ Body Stay Vicious by LetTheMusicMoveYou / @letthemusicmoveyou28
(E, 5k, gym) the one where Harry is feeling himself in the gym and gets a little carried away. Of course his gym crush just happens to walk in. They work it out.
đ (your smile is) on every face by @justanothershadeofblue
(T, 5k, famous/not famous) Harry streams the whole thing, too overwhelmed to sing along, clutching his phone above his head as Louis whips the fans into a frenzy, playing both sides of the stage before staking a claim to the middle.Â
đ Three Hundred Cupcakes Later by Larry_you_know / @larryyouknow
(G, 5k, party) Louis finds Christmas parties usually too boring or too rowdy. Nothing in between. And this one was definitely bordering on lame... Until he spotted the most handsome man watching him.
đ Pretty and Preposterous by @brightlyharry
(NR, 5k, neighbors) Harry donates a copy of Pride and Prejudice to his little free library. He never expects what comes next.
đ Come On and Rescue Me by @kingsofeverything
(E, 3k, social media) Louis only intends to watch his hot neighborâs Instagram live, but he winds up with his hand down his pants.
đ Green Coffee and Morning People by @insightfulinsomniac
(T, 3k, uni) Louis has a crush on the prettiest boy heâs ever seen â the curly-haired guy who sits next to him in his Community Psych class and brings strangely-colored drinks to class with him each day.
đ Stole My Heart by @haztobegood
(NR, 2k, humor) "I just reached into a box of free samples outside that new chicken restaurant. Only it wasnât free samples. It was a man. Holding a box of chicken nuggets. His chicken nuggets. I stole this manâs food, Niall!â
đ Oh Little Town of BATHlehem by LadyLondonderry / @londonfoginacup
(G, 2k, humor) Louis Tomlinson needs a small pink bathtub. He needs it. His fucking family had forgotten to include him in the email chain for Doris for Christmas, with her very carefully thought out Christmas list, until every easy item was gone. So, itâs either a small pink bathtub or an entire bouncy castle.
đ Charm Your Pants Off by 4ureyesonly28 / @evilovesyou
(G, 2k, Christmas) When Harry hurt himself in front of all of his coworkers, he thought his Christmas Eve couldnât get any worse. That was, until he ended up in an actual ambulance. Perhaps the gentle and ridiculously attractive doctor he meets at the hospital can make his trip (pun absolutely intended) worth it?
đ scent holding me ransom by larryftnoctrl / @the-larry-way
(E, 1k, omegaverse) Louis is obsessed with the scent of an omega he's never seen. Harry knows his dirty secret.

đ Worth the Risk by Lhhome / @lhhomefics
(E, 5k, Louis/Lando Norris) The one where Lando Norris just wants to flirt with the cute guy he saw from across the room and Louis finally finds someone who is worth the risk.
đ Choo-Choose Me by LadyAJ_13 / @ladyaj-13
(G, 3k, Liam/Louis) Liam is a commuter with a crush. Louis is the chirpy ticket inspector who occasionally mans the drinks trolley and sometimes makes announcements, his broad Yorkshire accent fighting the outdated train speakers. The train ships it.
