Happy 28th and a last day of February. It's so nice when the month only has 28th days! Here are the fics that got me through them all!

wildflower by blueskiesrry/@blueskiesrry | [112k]

“You look like a wildflower,” Louis comments, shielding his eyes from the sun, the crinkles near them even more prominent in this light. “What?” Harry’s words stumble over a surprised laugh. “With your hair all fluffy like that.” Harry’s fingers automatically find their way into his hair as he silently curses the humidity out on the water. “He kind of does, doesn’t he?” Elizabeth adds. Louis tilts his head to the side, smile softening and blurred around the edges. “Our very own long-stemmed wildflower.” - or: a 1950s hollywood story spanning half a decade where harry and louis are constantly growing towards, away from, & around each other and everything harry wants are things he can’t have.

you were in my dream by staybeautiful/@harruandlou | [59k]

“I had a sex dream about Harry.” Louis slapped his free hand over his mouth after the words slipped out. Zayn paused, his hand freezing as he was about to take a bite, his head snapping up to look at Louis. Louis could relate, it’s how he’d felt that morning after he’d woken up. He’d laid in bed for fifteen minutes trying to figure out what had happened, why it had turned him on so much, and then patiently waiting for his erection to go down. “Like… my Niall’s Harry? Harry Styles?” Zayn clarified, his face bewildered as if trying to comprehend what had just happened. “Do you even like Harry?” “His last name is Styles?” or Louis woke up after having a sexy dream about his best friend’s boyfriend’s best friend resolved to never think about it again. He hardly knew Harry, so what difference would it make? But when they are thrown together only a few days later, Louis had to admit, his subconscious might have been onto something.

You Took My Heart By Surprise  by LiveLaughLoveLarry | [39k]

There is reason to believe Prince Harry’s life is in danger. After a failed kidnapping attempt, Louis is assigned to guard Harry around the clock. He is the best at what he does, but he has a tendency to not get along with clients. Louis and Harry start off on the wrong foot, but it soon becomes clear that neither is at all what the other expected. ~*~*~ Queen Anne met Louis’ eyes. “While your file documents many remarkable accomplishments, it also contains a number of early terminations. Why is that?” “It all depends on what your priorities are,” he said slowly. “If your primary concern is protection, I’m your guy. If you’re looking for someone polite…” He shrugged. “I don’t generally try to be rude, but social graces aren’t what I’m being paid for. If someone values being sucked up to over being protected, that’s their problem.” “You seem quite well-mannered,” Anne said, frowning. Both Nick and Louis snorted at that. “You’ve only known me for ten minutes,” Louis said. “Give it time.”

I Can Feel It Take A Hold bylouislittletomlintum/@louislittletomlintum | [30k]

“Do you always swim in the nude?” Louis broke the silence, his smile growing when Harry felt his blush deepen. “Sometimes,” Harry answered wearily, pushing his hair back in the hopes that it would maybe not look quite as dishevelled as it felt. “Mm,” Louis hummed, cocking his head to the side like he didn’t quite believe him. Harry felt properly studied under his gaze. “And what was your plan?” “My plan?” Harry countered. The water licked at Louis’ legs, darkening his hair and wetting the back of his shorts where he was sitting. “Well. You were obviously wanting to get my attention,” Louis mused, Harry blushing further. “So what are you going to do with it now that you’ve got it?” or the one where it’s call me by your name but with; developed frontal lobes, oranges instead of peaches, golden by harry styles, and a happy ending

Knot Together  by larryftnoctrl/@the-larry-way | [22k]

A pair of matching Christmas sweaters might just be the Christmas magic needed to bring two oblivious idiots together.

Lethal Loveache  by thinlines/@thinlinez | [21k]

Louis made sure to dose himself in blockers every time he stepped out of his flat. He used them so often that sometimes he would forget the undertones of his own scent. Never had he thought the day would come when his wolf would blink open its eyes, ears perked and alert at an omega’s presence. OR Alpha Louis is dangerously close to breaking his own promise.

can we please get back to loving? by journeytothepast/@suckerforhome | [20k]

exes to lovers AU where Harry and Louis have to meet up with each other after their sex tape gets leaked.

Her Name is Noelle by faithinthegrapejuice | [18k]

When Harry sets out on a winter walk to clear his head, the last thing he expects is to be tackled by a mischievous labradoodle, caked in mud, and dragged (literally and figuratively) into the orbit of one Louis Tomlinson. Louis, a carpenter with a wicked grin, a disarmingly cozy cottage, and a knack for making Harry laugh when he least expects it, offers more than just dry clothes and a warm meal. As the sparks (and banter) fly, Harry starts to wonder if maybe—just maybe—getting a little lost isn’t the worst thing that could happen this weekend. —Or, Harry meets Louis, Louis has a dog, and somehow, Harry’s disastrous week turns into something extraordinary.

smell the sea, feel the sky by lightswoodmagic/@lightwoodsmagic | [16k]

They’d been planning this beach trip for months, stressing around work schedules and engagement parties, trying to find the perfect place to stay in and a time where there wouldn’t be families everywhere but the weather still perfect. Louis had spent what felt like hours researching and planning, dinners with Zayn and his boyfriend at their house that just ended in looking at places and sending them to Niall. He’d been looking forward to it for weeks, getting away from his job and his bullshit neighbours and the noise of the city. It seemed ridiculous, really, that in all that time, Zayn hadn’t mentioned once that Harry was coming. Or, Louis doesn't know how he's going to spend a week with the one person he wants and can't have. Harry proves him wrong.

High-End Fancy  by thinlines/ @thinlinez | [15k]

Liam’s shoulders visibly slumped. “I read the news recently. Was gonna call to check up on you too! I thought you and Harry would be a long-term thing. Still can’t believe he dumped you for some actor.” “Dumped me for some actor?” Louis echoed. His eyes flicked over Liam’s earnest expression. Surely, this was a joke. Was today April Fool’s Day? No, last he checked, it was September. In which Alpha Louis is always the last one to know.

In All Its Imperfections by BriaMaria/@briannamarguerite | [15k]

From: Louis Tomlinson To: Undisclosed Recipients Hello! I’ve asked the front desk and you lovely folks are the ones who are on the same level as me in the car park. I found a to-do list today that looked somewhat important because it has lines of poetry scribbled at the bottom that seemed like they might be for a card project. The stationary has a moose in a canoe at the top of it (and he is quite adorable). Let me know if it’s yours! Cheers! “Oh. My. Fucking. God,” Harry whispered, his eyes darting over the sentences again willing them not to make sense. They did, they did make sense. “Oh. My. Bloody. Fucking. God.” The next thing he knew he was on the floor, staring at the ceiling, with a very concerned Liam hovering over his head. "What happened, mate?" Liam asked. Harry just pointed to his computer. Liam bent over Harry’s desk to read the email. “What? This isn’t bad. Is that your to-do list? Did you finally come up with the inside text for those cards?” “Leeyum" he groaned. “It’s what’s on the list.” “Oh,” Liam paused for a beat. “Is it dirty stuff?” Harry nodded. There was more silence. And then, “Dirty stuff with Louis?”

A Christmas Kiss by parmahamlarrie/@parmahamlarrie | [8k]

Harry never expected to spend Christmas in the Emergency Room, but it might just be the (second) best thing to ever happen to him, after the birth of his son, of course. Because while in that hospital waiting for his son to be discharged, he met the most beautiful pediatric nurse he’s ever seen. Or the one where Harry is a single dad, Louis is a pediatric nurse, and Arlo needs to stop eating hazelnuts.

Sun-kissed Hurricane, Perfect Storm by iwillpaintasongforlou/ @canonlarry | [7k]

Harry is the quiet kid in the back of his statistics class who writes a lot and dreams about Louis’ cheekbones . Louis needs a statistics tutor ASAP before he flunks and the quiet kid in the back of the class seems like a good choice. Harry wants to help Louis however he can and Louis wants to see how much he can make Harry blush.

We’re a Matching Set, Babe by larry_hiatus/ @larry-hiatus | [6k]

Louis loves the jacket he wore to the Super Bowl, but when his husband Harry shows up at the after party wearing the matching skirt, Louis is less than thrilled. Harry, however, has some surprises up his sleeve (and up his skirt).

A Christmas at Home by parmahamlarrie/@parmahamlarrie | [3k]

After meeting his boyfriend in the emergency room, not having Louis home for Christmas Eve (and his birthday) was not a big surprise to Harry. What he didn't expect was just how hard that would be on his six year old son, Arlo. Or, the one where Arlo wants nothing more than to celebrate Louis' birthday with him, and Harry hates having to be the parent who says no.

tangled in self loathing by lightswoodmagic/ @lightwoodsmagic | [2k]

Louis hasn't seen Harry in months. It should be more of a surprise that when he wakes up in a warehouse tied to a chair, it's Harry that put him there.

don't let it break your (arm) by larryftnoctrl/ @the-larry-way | [816]

Louis seems to have forgotten his husband thanks to the wonders of anesthesia. Doesn't mean he's forgotten his attraction though.

Always leave kuddos and comments!! Happy reading babes!

WE'VE COME SO FAR I'M SO EMOOO!!!

it been 3.5 years since we first saw him wearing 28op and days later learning he had designed it himself!!!

it's been almost 3 years since i asked him about it at my first show and he said 'soon'.

it wasn't gonna be too soon, because it's been 1.5 years since the first drop!!!

and today he's doing a little collection launch party for the fourth drop and taking the opportunity to showcase a small band he likes and just-

i'm so fucking proud of him doing things his way. keep going, my love!

Happy 28th!! This month is so long how is it still not over???? Here are some amazing fics that got me through January

Pretty Please (With Sugar On Top)  by angelichl/@angelichl | [113k]

Harry is a sugar baby omega who cons rich alphas for a living. Louis is a rich alpha with too much self-control.

I like the way you say my name (when you soak it in grace) by louisismycat (tiflamomet)/@liminalkittyfics | [73k]

“It’s like I’m fucking orbiting around you, you know? Like you’re some huge, beautiful planet, and I’m a piece of space junk lucky enough to be pulled in by you somehow, and now I can’t leave, even if I wanted to. And I really fucking don’t want to leave.” OR Louis is transferred to a new city to temporarily cover for his counterpart while he is on maternity leave for the next six months. His new co-workers talk endlessly about Harry, the omega who he’s covering for. And Louis finds himself jealous of whatever alpha as snatched him up. Until he learns Harry is actually an unmated omega three months out from becoming a single parent. Title from “Say My Name” by Prince of Eden

25 independent one-shots with wintery/Christmas themes centering Larry Stylinson

I am adding the whole calendar since I've read most of the fics in it, strongly encouraging you to do the same

A Frail Farewell by Rearviewdreamer/@all-these-larrythings | [44k]

Louis can’t believe his luck when he is offered one of the easiest jobs he has had as a long-term house-sitter for the wealthy. He loves the money, and the peace and quiet of the empty mansions he looks after. Most of all he likes that there are no surprises until he gets the shock of his life from ex-pop star Harry Styles who isn’t supposed to be home.

Buried Like Treasure by QuickedWeen/ @becomeawendybird | [40k]

Prince Harry Styles is very private. He chooses to keep himself out of the public eye but feels lonely and isolated while surrounded by people in his hectic royal life. When he finishes his dissertation, he decides to take a solo holiday to one of the royal family's properties in the Swiss Alps. Semi-retired thief Louis Tomlinson has been pulled in for one last job: steal a painting from an uninhabited mansion. Neither one of them expects a natural disaster.

If I had no love to give (I wouldn't give it to you) by kingsofeverything/@kingsofeverything | [30k]

Small town restaurateur Louis Tomlinson needs someone competent to work in his kitchen. Chef Harry Styles needs a job.

Want It Flowing Through My Streams by screwstyles | [30k]

Wimbledon ABO AU: Harry has just qualified for his first Grand Slam, and he’s prepared to make the most of it – that is, until his heat unexpectedly hits him only a few days before his first match. And it’s just his luck that Louis Tomlinson, the resident bad boy of British tennis, is the only person around to help him.

Cold Calls by xunorthodox/@ltwritten | [17k]

Harry tilted his head, his green eyes scanning Louis' face in a way that made his skin crawl. "You're a terrible liar, you know that?" Against his better judgment, the cracks in his composure widen as he says, "What do you want me to say, Harry? You've got a job to do. I'm not going to sit here and guilt you into staying." OR Louis is nearing the severe stages of touch depri and alpha drop. Harry just can’t stay away.

No Bunny But You by crinkle-eyed-boo (KimmieRocks)/@crinkle-eyed-boo | [13k]

“So you saw the bunnies then?” Harry clarifies, a smirk tugging at his lips. “Yeah, those were a bit of a surprise,” Liam huffs. “I mean, they definitely weren’t part of what we commissioned from him, but they’re kind of cute, right?” Harry sputters a laugh. “What?” Liam asks, the furrow in his brow deepening. “They are cute little bunnies!” “Cute little bunnies that are fucking,” Harry snickers. “What?” Liam gasps. “Liam,” Harry says, trying to school his face into a serious expression. “Those bunnies are fucking.” A slow Monday night behind the bar turns into something else entirely thanks to a new mural and a new customer.

sip it slowly and pay attention  by vintagehistories/@adoredontour | [12k]

“So I’ve got a guy I think you might like,” Louis says. He’s standing in the doorway of Harry’s office, drinking from what is most definitely Harry’s mug. “You’re going to set me up?” Harry asks, rightfully wary. He can’t imagine that this could end well. “Don’t look so afraid.” Louis takes a sip from his mug, wincing as it burns him. Harry rolls his eyes. He’s always warning Louis to be more patient before he loses all his taste buds. “I know you better than anyone else. Who better to set you up on dates than me?” “I guess you’re right,” Harry says, still slightly hesitant. It’s not that he doesn’t trust Louis, but. He doesn’t trust Louis’ taste. Louis has about the same track record with men that Harry does, if not quite as extensive. or, harry is a guidance counselor, louis is an english teacher, and harry just wants to go on one successful date

Tease You, Please You by homosociallyyours/@homosociallyyours | [12k]

Marcy is the best assistant Louis could ever imagine having, and it’s not just because she’s good at her job, though she is. No, what really makes her the perfect fit for Louis is just how easy it is to make her blush and squirm and fall all over herself, and Louis rarely misses an opportunity to get a rise out of her. It’s not until a new drummer joins the band at the last minute, taking away some of Marcy’s time and attention, that Louis starts to wonder if there might be more to it than she’s realized. But has she already messed things up with Marcy with her teasing? There’s only one way to find out.

Fix Me Up by heartbreakwthr | [10k]

Prompt 96: omega harry is in love with the sexy alpha maintenance man named louis who is no doubt a little older than him with the sexiest beard and tattooed hands he has the peaky blinder haircut!!! for the love of god pls and at first harry is so content with his dreams and fingers because stuff in his flat breaks a LOT, harry is quite clumsy you see? so louis has to come fix stuff allllllllll the time so harry gets plenty of wank material when he’s around, can’t help slicking up at just the sight of him (louis tries very hard to ignore this the first 10 times because he was raised to be a respectful alpha but harry just smells so good and he’s so goofy and sexy, so hard to eventually resist) but then harry gets the real thing from louis and they fuck so hard and amazing that they break something and louis is like lmao i can fix that and harry is like swoon

I Roll 'til I Change My Luck by larry_hiatus/ @larry-hiatus | [8k]

Dating is hard enough when you're gay. When Louis reveals to his Tinder matches that he uses a wheelchair and has a service dog, things tend to get even more complicated. Too bad the guys on dating apps aren't as sweet and understanding as his best friend Harry...

i met a superhero. by Anonymous | [7k]

Harry has fibromyalgia and Niall is an idiot, leaving Louis to bump into Harry at 6am in a hospital corridor. It ends up as something much more wonderful than Harry ever could have expected, stood with a walker in his ratty PJs after a nasty flare-up, and he finally finds someone who can love him just the way he is.

You're Music To My Eyes by FallingLikeThis & RecycledStardust/ @fallinglikethis | [5k]

Louis' life is made so much easier when he finally starts using the amazing app for the visually impaired that Niall had him download months ago. Harry discovers a new way to treat people with kindness when his mother introduces him to the app as a sighted volunteer. Is it inevitable that their paths will cross?

Just Two Stars Passing By by QuickedWeen/ @becomeawendybird | [5k]

Harry blew up on TikTok and became a fashion commentator during the pandemic. Now, all of a sudden, big channels are asking him to cover their red carpets and premieres. Somehow he ends up covering arrival fashion for the 2024 Euros, and somehow Louis Tomlinson already knows his name.

a little bit stressed out by orphan_account | [1.8k]

Shawn takes a deep breath. “He’s scaring me.” “Harry’s scaring you?” Niall frowns. “Listen, he might be a global pop phenomenon and have been part of an Oscar-winning film, but he’s just a regular guy. You saw that in rehearsals. What’s changed? Oh, I know. Does he keep telling you the story about how he used to be a baker?” Shawn shakes his head. “No, I’m not talking about Harry. Harry’s great. I’m talking about his boyfriend.” “Louis? Louis is 5’8.” “And what about it?” ~ Or, Harry is starring in a romcom, and Louis keeps terrorizing his poor co-star.

WIP Wednesday

Thank you @allwaswell16 for jumping on the last-minute @girldirectionfest bandwagon with me. I was suddenly struck by inspiration for a Harry/Chappell Roan fic this morning while stuck in a meeting at work. Now that I'm home I am rushing to finish this in time to post it!

Anticipation was high. Chappell’s colorful assortment of key chains jingled as she unlocked the door to her apartment. Harry shuffled from foot to foot behind her, hands clasped behind her back to keep from reaching out.

I hope everyone has had a good February. I've been reading a bit on and off this month, but I've managed to get a decent sized list this this around. It has some really fun ones, so I hope you check them out! Have a good read!

❃ My Hands, Your Hands by @forwhatiam

Louis/Harry | 973 | G | Famous/Non Famous, Deaf Harry, Sign Language

It was something of a joke within Louis’ fandom that he never carried his own luggage. The theories were never too serious, mostly leaning towards him being too much of a princess to do it himself. In actuality, Louis figured they must have worked out the real reason somewhere between the third and fourth time a fan’s airport video caught him signing with a man who had the most beautiful green eyes and dimples.

Very cute!

❃ The Ball Guy by @homosociallyyours

Louis/Harry | 1.3k | T | Famous/Non Famous, Awkwardness, Meet Cute

Harry is an unpaid intern on his first film set, and he's pretty excited to see that his number one celebrity crush, Louis Tomlinson, will be a part of the movie. He's on the call sheet for the day, followed by a very odd addition: a ball guy? Now that's a role Harry wouldn't mind getting his hands on.

This was fun! I'm glad the awkwardness worked out for Harry, and hope Louis never let's him forget how they met.

❃ Souls Nailed Together by @londonfoginacup

Louis/Harry | 1.6k | G | Magic, Cursed Harry

Harry Styles has a lot of bad luck and a Problem Fixer on speed dial.

This was so cute, and such an interesting concept! I love the ever changing naming of Zayn, and just how happy Louis is to be there to help Harry.

❃ Don't Want It Any Other Way by @lululawrence

Louis/Harry | 1.8k | NR | Meet Cute, Big Brother Louis

Harry waited for a car to pass and heard a loud, obviously performative laugh coming from his right. He turned and saw a guy heading directly toward the Girl Scouts by the entrance with his arms held out wide. “My bitches are back!” the guy yelled. Harry’s jaw dropped in surprise. He stepped forward, his arm out to stop the guy before he could go closer to the Girl Scouts, when one of them stood up and gave him a death glare. “No!” she shouted. "Stop." And the guy did. “Walk away,” she said forcefully. Once again, the dumbass did exactly as he was told. Or the one where Harry's grocery store run is far more exciting than he ever anticipated. (He might even come out of it with a date, if the Girl Scout's hot brother is single, anyway.)

Very cute and fun!

❃ Singing Like a Bird 'Bout It Now by @becomeawendybird

Louis/Harry | 1.8k | G | Doctor Louis, Meet Cute

Dr. Louis Tomlinson is worn to the bone, but only has a few patients left before the end of the day. One of those appointments takes quite a few twists and turns.

Cute! Poor overtired Louis, at least Harry seemed charmed.

❃ Help me out of a jam? by @uhoh-but-yeah-alright

Louis/Harry | 2.1k | M | Established Relationship, Fluff, Smut

Harry's tightened a jar beyond what he can open. He asks Louis for help, because Louis is always more than obliging.

I do love some good domestic smut! I love them being goofy and sweet, having their little game, and just bantering throughout it all!

❃ Hey, Mr. DJ by @allwaswell16

Louis/Harry | 5.5k | T | Omegaverse, Meet Cute, Quirky Harry

Harry really, really does NOT want to go out to a club tonight and be hassled by a bunch of alpha knotheads, but against his better judgement, he finds himself alone on the dance floor, barefoot, with an orange in his hand. This is all Niall's fault. At least the DJ is the most strikingly gorgeous alpha he's ever seen…

I'm sure Harry was quite the sight dancing around with his alpha repelling orange and shoes off! Also, of course Niall takes all the credit.

❃ We’re a Matching Set, Babe by @larry-hiatus

Louis/Harry | 6.3k | E | PWP, Dom/Sub, Super Bowl

Louis loves the jacket he wore to the Super Bowl, but when his husband Harry shows up at the after party wearing the matching skirt, Louis is less than thrilled. Harry, however, has some surprises up his sleeve (and up his skirt).

This was great! I'm so glad Harry got what he wanted.

❃ I'll Call You Mine by @kenniewen

Louis/Harry | 13.7k | T | Nontraditional Omegaverse, Single Parents, Teahcer Louis

"Harry isn’t superstitious, doesn’t knock on wood, or wish on shooting stars, but his position on ‘love at first sight’ becomes increasingly wishy-washy as his mind begins to comprehend blue, blue, blue. He feels his heart constrict and tongue go dry. The man before him is the most beautiful omega he has ever seen in his entire life." Or: A self indulgent Omega/Omega fic with a teacher/single parent of favorite student trope.

This was so sweet and fluffy. I just love their little, and then not so little, family!

❃ Witch Harry series by @becomeawendybird

Louis/Harry | 15.3k | Witch Harry, Florist Harry, Fluff

Far Afield | 11k | T Harry Styles is a witch who owns the best flower shop in Manchester. Lottie Tomlinson is planning her wedding, and brings her brother along to her first appointment. Both men have been having a bad day and sparks fly.

Suited for You | 4.3k | T “Louis Tomlinson, you have had that suit for almost ten years. It is time to get a new one, and it is time to get a good one.” Unfortunately, he could tell his mother wouldn’t budge. The discussion was over. They said goodbye, and Louis immediately dialed his sister Lottie. She picked up straight away, “You have to get the suit, Lou.” “Argh!” Louis yelled, hanging up on her. He missed his old flip phone, hanging up on someone was so much more satisfying. Louis' family convinces him that he needs a new suit for some upcoming special events in his life.

This was very sweet! I love Louis and Lotti's relationship in this. Harry's reaction to Louis petting Amba and his magic going haywire, that's some soulmate shit right there!

❃ Harry The Helpful Ghost by @tempolarriefix

Louis/Harry | 15.6k | E | Ghost Harry, Human/Ghost Relationship

“I just like to help.” Louis blinks at the ghost in shock. “Were you the one who fixed the lights yesterday as well? And made me food?” “I helped you,” Harry says simply. He raises his eyebrows, nodding towards where Louis’ hands are folded in his lap to cover his erection. “Could help you out with that as well, if you wanted.” Or, the one where louis buys a house that may or may not be haunted and harry just wants to be helpful.

You know, I didn't expect a ghost gic to be this much fun. It was absolutely delightful from start to finish!

❃ to be loved (and to be in love) by @blueneptuune

Louis/Harry | 20.8k | T | Omegaverse, Touch Deprivation, Doctor Louis, Childhood Friends

After a few years trying to make it on his own, Harry is forced to return home due to his worsening conditions. He expects the experience to be nothing short of humiliating, but it turns out kindness is lingering in the strangest of places -- you just have to be brave enough to ask for help.

This was lovely and just a nice read. I love that they were able to find their way back to each other after all those years.

❃ On a starlit night by @lunarheslwt

Louis/Harry | 24.1k | M | Omegaverse, Luna Louis, Childhood Friends

“Then… then, what is your motive?” “Must I have one?” Louis scoffed. “What, so am I to believe you just woke up one day and thought ‘Yeah actually, I would like to be one of the suitors of my pack Luna’s ceremony’?” “There’s no motive, nothing like you’re thinking,” Harry replied, glancing at him. “I don’t know what the alphas out there want. I just want a chance to show that I can be a good alpha that can fulfil your needs, both as your mate as well as in supporting you in your Luna duties. Just a chance to show you how well I could care for you, if you were to pick me.” Louis was floored by his sincerity. “That’s all you want? Just that?” Just me? “Yeah.” Or, omega and future Luna Louis is holding a mating ceremony to find his mate, but what he doesn’t expect to see amongst the alphas vying for his hand, is a familiar, yet unexpected face: Harry Styles.

I love full shift fics, they always add that little extra to pack dynamics! This dynamic between them was really fun to read!

❃ Dreaming of You by @louislittletomlintum

Louis/Harry | 30.1k | E | Age Difference, Virgin Harry, Boss/Employee

“Do you like cigarettes after sex?” Harry blanched, wondering why on earth Louis would ask him a question like that. “Oh, well, I - well I have asthma, and ehm, I’m actually a virgin, so,” Harry managed to stutter out, answering purely on instinct as he fiddled with the edge of the vinyl case he was holding and looked at Louis nervously. He met Louis’ eye after a few seconds and saw an amused glint, one of his curved eyebrows raised in question as he nodded down at the vinyl in Harry’s hands. Harry looked down and was met with three words in white, serif typeface against a misty black background: Cigarettes After Sex or the one where harry's in his mid-20's so it's probably about time louis took his virginity

I love their dynamic, and how Harry is shy and awkward, but also direct enough to straight up ask Louis if he wants to have sex with him. Also Louis being supportive and encouraging!

❃ can't even think straight by @shimmeringevil

Louis/Harry | 34.1k | E | Idiots to Lovers, Oblivious Harry, Gay Panic

His eyes are blue. Sharp cheekbones, long eyelashes and a doll-like face, pretty features contrastingly set in such arrogant disdain. Harry can’t stop staring at him. “Straight,” he blurts out when his eyes drop to the man’s mouth. “I’m straight.” “Thank you for sharing,” the waiter says dryly. The captivating movements of his lips form an even more captivating voice. “Y’alright if I grab your wallet for you, or is there anything else you’d like to get off your chest?” “No, um—no. Sorry. I mean, thank you. Thank you and sorry.” — OR — Harry is definitely straight, even if no one seems to believe him when he tells them. Things change when he meets a pretty stranger who patiently waits for him to figure it all out.

This was so good! I love how oblivious Harry is, just him being "jealous" of Louis, and how patient and kind Louis is about it. They both have their insecurities, but they go so well together and make the other comfortable to be themself. And their dynamic is so well done!

❃ Wither & Bloom by @dizzy-pixie17

Louis/Harry | 65.4k | E | Omegaverse, Famous/Non Famous, Fluff, Angst

No one knows that legendary Harry Styles is an omega. The record label, the fans, and even his family have no idea, leading to a very isolated and very lonely life for Harry. He knows it's for the best. Otherwise, he'd never have the career he wanted and he contents himself in the knowledge that he's not the only one. But when Harry injures his voice during a performance, his manager hires a new vocal coach to help put him to rights. Cue Louis Tomlinson, the sweetest, sexiest, kindest alpha in the world, stepped right out of Harry's dizziest daydreams. While Louis tries to figure out why there's something so incredibly un-alpha-like about 'Alpha-King of Pop' Harry Styles, Harry is busy trying to control his omega's undeniable urge to throw himself at the object of his infatuation. Amid an accidental misgendering, getting slick in public, tour bus snuggles with awkward boners, and unprovoked drops, Harry will have to choose whether he wants to keep living a lie for the sake of remaining in the spotlight or if he'll sacrifice everything to be with the man he loves... Assuming Louis ever comes back.

This was fun to read! I'm so happy Harry had a good support system throughout his carer.
