Summary
Louis is homeless and the only thing he has left is his loyal dog Clifford, who makes life on the streets a little easier for him.
Harry, on the other hand, is a lawyer who is struggling with his own problems.
When one evening Louis stands in front of Harry with Cliff in his arms and begs for help, two worlds suddenly collide.
⋯𖥸⋯
"Insolent scum. The dog is cute, but I can't say the same about you,” he hears the man murmur, who is already walking away. Louis huffs annoyed and he ignores how his words bring back memories in him, but instead of continuing to care about the arrogant man, he prefers to cuddle the dog, his loyal soul who doesn't care how they live and shows him every day what is important. Love and loyalty. And if Louis doesn't find it in a human, then in his wooly companion on four paws.

Summary
Three years have passed since Louis last saw him, but all it took was a few minutes in Harry’s presence for him to be relegated to the desperate twenty-one year old that was practically begging his boyfriend for an ounce of reassurance that he still cared about him.
Harry shouldn’t be here. He’s brought too many unresolved feelings with him, that Louis thought he’d never have to face.
It’s Harry’s apparent apathy that’s the most difficult to come to terms with. Anger, he could handle. Regret, he would welcome. But Harry’s amiability, and carefree demeanor can only be born from indifference.
He’s moved on. He doesn’t care. And that is something Louis doesn’t think he’ll ever be strong enough to face.

OR - The worst heartbreak of Louis’ life walks right back into it when his parents invite their family friends on an all-expenses-paid trip for their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. Facing a past that he tried to bury long ago, Louis learns that some people have a way of sticking with you even when they’re gone.

Summary
It's been twelve years since Harry met Louis on TXF, became best mates with him, eventually falling head over heels in love with him. Six years post One Direction deciding to go on hiatus and now everyone is doing their own thing. All the boys have solo careers, some are touring, and with their busy lives in play, Harry and Louis have sort of grown apart. Harry's been filling the Louis void by devouring Larry fanfics, giving himself a chance to love Louis from afar in his own way. So far it's worked for him and he's content with his love of Louis being of the unrequited variety.
That all changes, however, when Harry reads a particularly emotional and classic fic in the fandom, and he simply can't help but call Louis despite his sobs to tell him all about it, inadvertently sending Louis down the Larry fic rabbit hole as well.
OR
A canon-divergent AU where Louis and Harry read Larry Stylinson fanfiction.

Summary
Harry wakes up with a god awful hangover and soon discovers there are pictures of him and a hot guy blasted all over social media. The problem is, Harry has no idea who this mystery man is, and doesn’t even remember meeting him...
With their newfound compatibility and a dash of sexual chemistry, things quickly heat up between them. The plan was to have fun with the remaining days that Louis is in Los Angeles, nothing too serious, and get back to the real world in the UK. Well, sometimes things don’t always go as planned.
Or,
It felt almost impossible how swiftly and powerfully love had hit him when he finally had found the person to fall into it with. It was never meant to be like this. Three more days and Louis would be gone; out of his life almost as soon as he had appeared. From the beginning there had been this silent agreement about how their relationship would be and it had always come with an expiration date and at the time Harry had figured that it was better than nothing from Louis at all.
But now, after his realisation, he wasn’t ready to give up so quickly. Harry decided in that moment there must be a way to change their trajectory.
