Louis wants a soulmate, Harry loves his free will. They don’t exactly go hand in hand.
Prompt: AU where you have a countdown on your wrist for when you’re going to meet your soulmate and if you miss it the time will reset. Louis/Harry keep having awful luck and always are missing their time until one day they don’t. Maybe the other one is scared/has anxiety about meeting their soulmate? Maybe one time they’re in a relationship so they intentionally miss their time? Who knows! But they finally meet :D
How many times have you died? Louis’ a fucking expert at it by now.
When he falls asleep Louis experiences the deaths of those around him. The universe has a strict ‘eye-for-an-eye’ policy when it comes to life and death, so he stopped trying to play God a long time ago. Except with Niall. He doesn’t usually regret saving Niall unless the idiot’s dragging him out to socialize. Louis’s not one for socializing. Doesn’t like being able to put names to the faces, it tends to sour his breakfast when they’re dead by morning.
Niall is relentless until Louis agrees to join in in a night of fun. Through the crowd he zeroes in on that boy, the one behind the mic with shiny eyes and shiny lips and shiny teeth. He looks like fun. Louis quickly finds out Harry, much more of a man than a boy where it counts, is a lot of fun. Over and over again they collide, until they’ve hooked up so many times it can’t really be called a No Strings Attached sort of thing anymore.
Every night Louis leaves before his eyes can shut, knowing the time before he dreams of Harry’s death is running short. The issue is, by now he’s so got so many damn strings attached Harry’s practically braided into his skin.
Harry has an affinity for romcoms and a hard time controlling her jealousy when it comes to Louis. A fitful night of sleep on the couch and a group of young boys who look a lot like her best friends just may be the solution to all her problems.
Louis is looking for magic. Everyone, even her best friend, has tried to convince her she’s chasing a fairy tale. Then one night, she finds her. The girl who sets her heart afire. But she’s like a dream, always disappearing before Louis can ever reach her.
Harry Styles stopped at the park to relax after an unusually stressful day at Angel Cakes bakery. Little did he know he was about to meet a rather curly old English sheepdog. And he had no idea the affectionate stray had also made another friend…
Harry’s hand seems to tremble a bit as he takes the pen from Louis.
Louis pretends he doesn’t notice.
It’s not his right anymore to notice, he thinks to himself. Or maybe it is – as friends. He’s not sure what being just friends entails, if he’s being entirely honest. He’s a bit confused where they’ve drawn the line, or will be drawing the line. It’s just - it’s not really clear where they stand at the moment. Despite all the paperwork surrounding Oliver, there’s so much left unsaid. Then again, maybe everything already has been said and Louis is just scrambling for reasons to keep holding on.
or the one where Louis and Harry’s relationship falls apart after 7 years, but the rescue dog they raised together doesn’t understand the joint-custody agreement they’ve hashed out.
Louis has inherited a farm from an uncle he barely knew. It’s not in the best state, and he’s facing the reality of having to let some of the workers go if profits don’t drastically improve. It’s not a nice idea.
Then Harry comes into the picture. A prince in need of a place to lay low for a while. It’s a little awkward, and a lot unconventional, but he’s paying well and Louis can’t turn down the opportunity.
If only he didn’t give Louis such conflicting feelings.

This should feel wrong, honestly. Louis and Harry stumbling into the backseat of Harry’s van, stripping themselves of their clothes, well, Harry’s clothes. Louis had stolen a Rolling Stones shirt from him after the first time they got together in Harry’s flat after a few drinks. And just as quick as it happened, Louis was rushing out to get back to his boyfriend. Boyfriend that wasn’t Harry but that’s besides the point.
Or: Harry and Louis have been sneaking around for years and their feelings are finally catching up with them.
