    Summary

    Complete at 42 chapters (for now at least).

    Harry Styles is the most adored man in the world. Louis Tomlinson is pretending he doesn't care.
    Years after their private implosion, a mandatory meeting to settle the band's remaining debt pulls them back into each other's orbit. What starts as lawyers and paperwork ends with Harry in Louis's bed and Louis remembering exactly why he spent a decade trying to forget.
    Because some addictions you don't recover from. Some people you don't get over. And some promises are the only ones worth keeping.

    This is a story about two men learning that freedom isn't just financial. It's looking at the person who destroyed you and rebuilt you in equal measure, and choosing them anyway.

    Content notes: Explicit sexual content. References to past substance abuse, industry exploitation, and closeting. Panic attacks and anxiety. Angst with a hard-won happy ending.

    "You're the worst thing I've ever been addicted to, and the only one I never really wanted to quit."

    Summary

    Five ex-boyband members walk into an Italian villa.
    One dead billionaire Directioner later, everyone’s pointing fingers, making out in attics, weaponising jam, and absolutely not reuniting the band.

    Featuring:
    – one (1) suspiciously elegant housekeeper
    – one (1) emotionally feral Harry Styles
    – one (1) emotionally avoidant Louis Tomlinson
    – five attempted murders (minimum)
    – zero successful ones (allegedly)
    – and a shocking amount of jam.

    It’s Cluedo, but gay.
    It’s a locked-room mystery, but sexy.
    It’s a love story, but no one wants to talk about it.
    Except Remy. And he’s dead.

    Kind of.

    OR

    The one where a very rich Directioner invites the five ex-members of One Direction to an Italian villa for a secret reunion,
    and then promptly ends up dead.
    Or… maybe not.

    Summary

    A serendipitous meeting led former boy bander and current pop star Harry Styles to fall in love with a boy named Louis nine Christmases ago. Six Christmases ago, that boy left him to raise a baby that wasn’t Harry’s. And, well, Harry never quite got over that. But this year, he gets a second chance at first love.

    A love letter to second chances, unconventional families, and Christmas in New York. Loosely inspired by James Arthur’s Emily and Dickens' A Christmas Carol featuring Liam, Niall, and Zayn as the ad hoc ghosts of Christmas past, present, and future. The ingredients for this Christmas treat include a wallop of a blizzard, a pinch of angst, a dollop of fluff, several cups of clichés, and The Rockefeller Center skating rink as a supporting character.

    Title is from Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas. (Frank Sinatra or Judy Garland version, reader's choice. ;)

    Summary

    It’s new, this thing. This– attraction.
    Not to men in general, because Louis has looked before, even though he’s never had the courage to actually take it further. Definitely not when they were all still in the spotlights all the time, and even now things have gotten quieter, he never dared to act on it.
    But to Niall, that’s new. Of course he’s always been aware that Niall is proper fit– if he wasn’t, they probably wouldn’t have ended up in an impromptu X-factor band together. But it’s never been as urgent as it is tonight.

    Summary

    Niall felt his chest fall when he saw the news.

    No. They must be kidding, right? It’s obviously fake. There’s no fucking way those news are real. No fucking way.

    No. Fucking. Way.

    He found himself sobbing all alone in his flat, whiskey pouring down his wrist while his hands shakes.

    Would it be better if he wasn’t there? Was it worth it? He just wanted all to stop hurting.

    Summary

    Harry sat up, looking down at Louis with a glint of something in his eyes.
    “Let’s make a promise,”
    Louis cocked his head.
    “Of what?”
    Harry smirked at him.
    “Let’s promise not to change.”
    And Harry didn’t need to explain any further. Louis didn’t understand it, not really, at the time. Because it’d been hardly a week of the lot of them even knowing one another really, and they hardly knew anything about well… Anything, yet. But Louis knew there was something in it. And to be an arse, he raised his pinky.
    “No changing,” Louis said. Harry dimpled, wrapping his pinky around Louis’.
    “No changing.”
    It was a first of many of their own little personal promises to one another. And the first promise the both of them had broken.
    ---

    A story of broken promises, broken hearts, terrible communication and two boys in love, always searching for greener grass.

    Summary


     

     

     

    Louis settled a little further into the couch, forcing himself to calm down and relax. He took a deep breath and asked the one question that had been haunting him for ten years; the question only Harry had the answer to; the question that meant everything to him “Why did you do it?”

     

    In the 10 years since One Directions' shock split in February 2015, Louis has been living a quiet life in Doncaster, trying to forget he was ever 1/5 of the world's biggest boyband. Until of course there is a televised reunion and tour.
