do you have any non-au time traveler fics? thank you for what you do!

Hello! I have just one saved, unfortunately. If you want more just send another ask and I'll have a look around :)

One More Time Again by orphan_account {232k, 27 chapters, non au, haven't read myself}

Harry looks down to where Louis is cradling his hand between his own. Louis' hands are slender, the bones delicate, the nails bitten short. The 2-8 on the backs of his fingers is gone, but the faded scar from a skateboarding mishap in Year 7 is still there.Harry's hand is awkward, knobby-boned and naked, no rings, no tattoos. It's too big for his wrist and his wrist too big for his arm. Yet it still somehow fits in Louis' in the painfully perfect way it always did.He blinks back the sting in his eyes.On the morning of his second sold-out performance at Madison Square Garden, Harry wakes up to find that he's sixteen years old, on The X Factor, and that he has a chance to make things right.A canon-compliant fix-it fic (sort of).

“I don’t like you like that, Harry.”

“See,” Harry starts, Louis can hear the smile in his voice, “that’s where I think you’re lying.”

or an au where small towns suck, louis is losing it, and harry’s just too perfect.

Disaster Gays

~

so don’t explain, kiss me by keysmashlesbian {not rated, 2k, uni AU}

Harry’s college roommate is named Louis Tomlinson, but all he can think about is how much he misses his cat.

In which Harry and Louis are roommates, and it takes three seconds for Harry to make a terrible first impression.

~

I Get A Kick Out Of You by keysmashlesbian {teen and up, 3k, nurse!Louis}

“So, how did you hurt your ankle?”

Harry sits up a bit straighter, like that’ll make what he’s about to say sound any less ridiculous. “A sassy kick.”

In which Harry injures his ankle and Niall and Liam are terrible friends.

~

You Got That Somethin’ by styleandsin {not rated, 5k, popstar!Harry, famous!Harry, not famous!Louis, strangers to lovers, fluff, humour}

“How are you? Having a good time? Got a couple of beers in? What are those?” Louis hears him ask in quick succession, the loudness of the microphone making him jump even though the screams around him have yet to cease.

“It’s vodka,” Louis says, slightly unsure.

“Vodka! Oh, straight?” Harry asks, louder this time and with a growing smile.

Phoebe and Daisy have turned around to face him, huge smiles on their faces.

Fuck, this man is really going to be the death of Louis. He can physically feel his brain struggling to make his body cooperate and answer the question. He is so gay.

“No, gay!” He shouts, immediately getting an elbow to the side by his sister.

Or, the one where Louis attends a Harry Styles concert and makes an absolute fool of himself.

~

Ain’t That A Kick In The Head by keysmashlesbian, wrekcingtomlinson {teen and up, 22k, ot5 friendship, side ziam, football player!Louis, famous!Louis, non famous!Harry}

“Well.” Niall unlocks his phone. “It wasn’t getting the traction I wanted on Snapchat. So…I tweeted it.”

What.

“You tweeted it,” Harry states, nearing a state of brain dead. “To your ten thousand followers.”

Niall nods, handing Harry the phone. “You’re a meme, Harry.”

“I’m a what?”

“A meme. It’s like an internet—”

“I know what a fucking meme is, Niall! Why did you make me into one?”

Niall has the fucking balls to cackle at that while Harry looks at the mess his former friend created. Videos of him screaming at Tomlinson about Tide Pods and his ass are being quoted and combined with memes to a create a level of memeception Harry has never seen before. That isn’t even including the thousands of tweets of him falling up the stairs remixed with random Top 40 songs.

In which Harry’s a disaster gay who doesn’t know shit about soccer, Liam drinks too many blue raspberry Coolattas, Niall knows everyone, Zayn looks dead, and Louis is Not Happy about sharing his breakout moment with “Drunk Hawaiian Guy.”

Soft Hands, Fast Feet, Can’t Lose by dolce_piccante {mature,112k, 6 chapters, hurt/comfort, American Uni AU, enemies to lovers}

American Uni AU. Harry Styles is a frat boy football star from the wealthy Styles Family athletic dynasty. A celebrity among football fans, he knows how to play, he knows how to party, and he knows how to fuck (all of which is well known among his legion of admirers).

Louis Tomlinson is a student and an athlete, but his similarities to Harry end there. Intelligent, focused, independent, and completely uninterested in Harry’s charms, Louis is an anomaly in a world ruled by football.

A bet about the pair, who might be more similar than they originally thought, brings them together. Shakespeare, ballet, Disney, football, library chats, running, accidental spooning, Daredevil and Domino’s Pizza all blend into one big friendship Frappucino, but who will win in the end?

Canon Compliant: Short Fics

Look, I’ve probably posted most of these fics before, but I’m not going to search my entire account to check. 

~

show me devotion by mercutionotromeo {explicit, 1k, established relationship}

A ray of sunlight falls across Harry’s face, illuminating the halo of curls spread out on the pillow.

“Jesus, I love you,” Louis murmurs and pats his husband’s chest.

Harry grins wide, nodding to return the feelings. They share a moment of breathless smiles, still head over heels after all these years.

Still 16 and 18 at heart.

~

it’s just that it’s delicate by acciocreativity (condescendingsmirk) {not rated, 2k, baby boyfriends, x factor era}

Harry giggles sleepily and Louis’ heartstrings give a little tug. “Come snuggle, then?” he asks hopefully, blinking up at Louis slowly. He brings a hand up to rub at his tired eyes. “Body heat and all that.”

~

somewhere I can rest my soul by togetherwecouldbealright {general audiences, 3k,  soulmate identifying marks, x factor era, non-au, baby boyfriends}

“I’m Louis Tomlinson,” the boy says, holding his hand out. Glancing down at it, Harry starts at the word beautiful written there, just along his pointer finger. It seems someone else knows exactly how stunning Louis is.

Willing himself not to act like a complete and utter prat, Harry takes Louis’ hand in his own and quietly murmurs, “It’s nice to meet you.”

Or, the AU where the way your soulmate sees you is tattooed onto your skin.

~

After Midnight by zarah5 {teen and up, 4k}

  Louis hates how often people forget that Harry is only nineteen.

~

Take a Chance, Just Feed Me by yeah_alright {explicit, 4k, role play, smut, marcel AU}

He’s in the midst of marveling over how Harry can be simultaneously dorky and hot, how he can just be so… much... of everything at all times, when–

“Cute as a button, every single one of you!”

Oh no.

Just like that, Louis loses the battle against his own smile. The crinkles around his eyes deepen and spread out in a fan as his bottom lip breaks free from the grip of his teeth.

He’s done for.

Louis needs some time alone with Marcel, and he’s hoping Harry will play along.

~

all those chandeliers of hope by usedtothebeach {teen and up, 8k}

Harry's friends keep surprising him with terrible Christmas gifts. He's less surprised that Louis is the reason.

~

Love you more than him by louissass {general audiences, 8k}

Louis woke up tired and sort of pissed off. He had been out the night before at some movie with his ‘girlfriend’, who he really didn’t like and was fucking tired of seeing quite frankly – even though it had only been a few weeks. But he didn’t have a choice, because Eleanor was his ‘girlfriend’, only there to make Louis look good in the media, because too many people were suspecting things about his sexuality (which Louis didn’t really get, let them speculate, it’s not as if they’re wrong).

Or

Louis is tired of pretending to be someone he's not and just really wants to be with Harry.

~

cause with your hand and my hand tied up like two ships (you make me strong) by zimriya {mature, 9k} 

Harry and Louis and firsts (and also some not quite firsts.) A love story told in first moments.

we should get jerseys by @/orphan_account {rated: mature, M/M, 12k, 1 chapter, hockey AU, hockey player!Harry, dramatic!Louis, ot5 friendship, ot5 involvement, fluff} 

There’s a lot surrounding Harry, and Louis knows, in his heart of hearts, that there always will be. He just doesn’t know if he’ll manage to equate into the ‘always’ of it.

Harry is a hockey player, and Louis is his slightly melodramatic boyfriend.

five phases of their relationship in a world where harry smokes a lot and skips school and hates everyone except his boyfriend and louis is in plays and is loved by everyone and they work even though nobody gets how.

~

Baby Heaven’s in your Eyes by theboyfriendstagram {explicit,120k, 24 chapters, highshool AU, hate to love, side ziam}

They couldn’t be more different if they tried. Louis Tomlinson is 17 years old and in his last year of the most prestigious private school in Doncaster. If there’s one thing that completely annoys him, it’s that there is a poor community college right across the street.

Harry Styles is 19 years old, and (once again) in his last year of college. He goes to community college in Doncaster. He never shows up to classes and if he actually bothers to, he’s either high or drunk; sometimes both. His skin is littered with tattoos and if there’s one thing he absolutely hates, it’s the snobby students attending the private school right across from his.

Or a sixth form!AU where Harry is the fucked up bad boy with too many problems, Louis is the perfect rich boy with too much money and their schools are right across from each other. They meet at a party and that’s the last (and maybe the only) thing they need.

Harry (not so) secretly crushes on the cute footie player and fills pages with sketches of him.

Just a Flower Boy by Larryruinedme {not rated,70k, 15 chapters, popular!Louis, homophobia, highschool AU, side ziam}

Harry Styles is a clumsy, flower crown-wearing, openly gay junior with only two true friends, Niall and Zayn. Louis Tomlinson is the school's attractive, straight football captain, with a small body and a big personality. As fate will have it, Harry has a huge, unrequited, utterly hopeless crush on Louis.

Fate is thrown out the window the day that Harry and Louis find themselves partnered up for a history project. Harry starts to receive notes from a secret admirer, Louis starts to get jealous of Harry's budding friendship with senior Nick Grimshaw, Zayn and Liam develop a thing for each other, and Niall is the best mate anyone could have asked for. And suddenly, Harry's crush on Louis doesn't seem so utterly hopeless anymore.

[one-d-library]

Teacher AU

Where one, or both, are some sort of teachers. 

~

Before I Fall Too Fast by GMTYUniverse  {general audiences, 6k, haven’t read it all}

‘Hey Lou, want to hang out after work? Order in some curry?’

He’s slightly surprised, because, well. “Didn’t you just say you had plans?”

Harry’s cheeks flush as he shrugs it off.

‘I just wanted them off my back. Truth is I’m gonna be terribly single and alone, but I thought we could be single and alone together - maybe we could make a proper night off of it? Play some FIFA, watch Grease...’

He trails off with an impish grin, and Louis is pretty sure that his own face shows just how easy he is for his favourite musical.

“Fine, I can’t say no to Danny and Sandy. That’d be mean of me.”

It’s probably a really bad idea to spend Valentine’s Day with the guy that you’re actually crushing on, Louis knows that. However, it’s also really hard to say no to spending the most romantic day of the year - supposedly - with the one guy you’ve been crushing on for almost a year.

~

As Golden As The Coast by softandslow {mature, 12k, side ziam}

Elementary School Teachers AU in which Harry always seems to have paint chips in his hair, Zayn is scary, Liam is secretly optimistic, Niall owns a not-RV, and Louis is new in town.

~

Hands Clasped Tight by afirethatcannotdie {explicit, 44k, secret relationship}

“What am I looking at here?” Harry asks.

“This, my friends, is a ‘proof’ Instagram account, run by your students,” Liam announces.

“It’s got all this stuff about how the two of you are together,” Niall adds.

“I heard about that,” says one of the math teachers. “Confiscated a kid’s phone today when they were looking at it. I have to say, the evidence that you’re dating is pretty damning.”

“Really,” Louis says dryly. “Do you think being married for three years might have something to do with it?”

Or the one where Harry and Louis are high school teachers and their students have been playing matchmaker for over a year. Little do they know, Harry and Louis are already married.

i’ll bring the bread because boy, you’re the jam by scagnetism {not rated, 8k, strangers to lovers}

Just when he’s about to stop clicking the next button and claim defeat, maybe put some posters up around town, he’s met with a picture of white cardstock lying on a table, words written in black Sharpie with careful, deliberate strokes. “Hiiii,” it reads, “if you’re reading this, you’ve found my camera! I’d love it if you could contact me so I can get it back. It’d be the nice thing to do.”

Or the AU where Harry loses his camera. Louis finds it. They fall for each other via email.

“L’never figure it out,” Harry grumbles, turning to scowl down at the notebook. “It’s just—”

Louis swallowed, a smile crossing his face. “You do?”

Harry mumbled again in agreement. “Marry you in every country I can.”
