“Then how come since the moment I’ve met you, you’ve kept this hard front about you. Yet…” he tapped his chin in fake-thought, “the moment I come anywhere near you, your palms sweat. Your heart rate rises. Your eyes dart around the room for something, anything to look at that’s not me?”
“You don’t fool me, Brin. You’re even nervous right now.”
This Was Home // h.s. [ongoing]
— In this dystopian world, Brinley sets off to get supplies for her sick mother and younger sister. She bumps into a snarky, arrogant man who saves her life and somehow this forces them into a bond that neither of them asked for and is purely for survival. At least that’s what they keep telling each other.

THIS WAS HOME // harry styles fic
Brinley has known this way of life since she was 10 years old. Now being 23, it feels like she knows everything and nothing at the same time. Her mother and little sister, Alayna, live in the outskirts of the city, in a home that’s been their refuge from dangers that live outside their walls - particularly once night falls.
Every 3 months there’s a drop off of supplies, which their mom normally takes care of. This time she’s sick, so now it’s Brinley’s turn to take charge. But what happens when things don’t go according to plan? When she meets a certain curly-haired stranger? Her mom never warned her about this. Why does he make her feel terrified but safe at the same time? Who is he?
Well, only one way to find out.
