    Summary

    "Harry sits at one end of the church pew, Louis at the other, an unspoken distance between them that feels endless. Beside him, Niall is close, his hand resting softly on Harry's thigh - tentative, as if he's trying to offer comfort to both of them at once.

    It tears at Harry’s heart to see the raw, swollen red of Niall’s eyes - so broken, so lost. He can’t even bring himself to glance at Louis; the weight of everything that has unfolded since last night - the unsaid words, the aching silence - keeps him frozen in place. He's terrified of what he might see in Louis’ eyes, of the distance that now lies between them.

    Zayn sits next to Louis, and it feels as though they’ve unintentionally divided into two pairs, each drawn to the person they’ve always been closest to. It’s almost inevitable after everything that happened last night, though Zayn and Niall remain blissfully unaware of the true cause of the palpable tension."

    **********

    The story begins at Liam’s funeral, where the remaining four band members are reluctantly reunited. Over the following months, both Harry and Louis struggle to come to terms with the sudden, shocking shift in their relationship.

    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

    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


     

     

     

    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.

    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

    It’s 2025. The four former members of One Direction Harry, Louis, Niall, and Zayn have long gone their separate ways, crossing paths only sporadically over the years. Fame has faded into something more private, more personal.
    …Until one day, each of them vanishes without a trace.

    A mysterious organization, heavily funded by an unknown sponsor with a goal. Their mission? To forcibly reverse the years using experimental surgeries, extreme conditioning, and psychological manipulation to return the boys to their 2012 selves: physically, emotionally, and mentally. Locking them forever in their teenage years.

     

    Now trapped in a luxurious but suffocating facility designed to mimic the height of their fame, the boys must confront not only their captors but each other old wounds, regrets, betrayals, soul altering surgeries and what it really means to be seen not as people, but as products.
