🔹Do You Have a Reservation? by zmmf / @zaynmaliksmiddlefinger [M, 7k, Zayn/Liam]
Any shift in a restaurant devoid of chaos is probably not a lucrative one —but some are just that extra bit hectic.
Zayn sometimes has to remind himself that with a tight knit crew, you can get through just about anything.
🔹Where Words Fail, Music Speaks by Larry_you_know / @larryyouknow [M, 45k, Louis/Harry]
Louis is a world class violinist. He’s one year over forty, living his best life in New York. One day, he comes to a small town in Connecticut where he inherited a house from his late father. The town looks nice and its people welcome him warmly. The problem is that Louis never knew his father and he doesn’t intend to change anything about it - his father can stuff his last will up his treacherous ass. In a strange coincidence, Louis meets town troubadour Harry, who seems wonderful to him just right until he reveals that Louis’ father was like a dad to him.
Even though Louis tries to convince himself that it shouldn’t - it hurts.

🔹Just Pretend by @kingsofeverything [E, 90k, Harry/Louis]
Louis Tomlinson is a divorced dad who doesn't date. What free time he has, he likes to spend with his teenage daughter, and if he wants to take someone home, he does it when she's spending the weekend with her mom.
Then he meets Harry Styles, another divorced dad with a teenage daughter, who convinces him it’s a good idea to pretend they're dating to keep their kids happy.
🔹honey, honey by @kingsofeverything [NR, 100 words, Louis/Harry]
Poem, drabble.
🔹Monday by @nouies [NR, 2k, Louis/Harry]
A flower shop AU featuring a one-sided feud, puns, and a missing cat.
🔹reckless behaviour by @nouies [E, 13k, Harry/Louis]
Harry is a retired football player looking for a new opportunity. Louis is the image consultant hired to help him find it.
🔹Sore Throat by stretchmybones / @harryslonecurl [E, 864 words, Harry/Louis]
Louis complained about having a sore throat on stage during tour and this is what happened beforehand.
🔹Could Be A Catastrophe by hazzahtomlinson / @itsnotreal [E, 29k, Louis/Harry]
He watched as the other man scrunched up his nose, but slid his hand into Louis' nonetheless. “So, where are we going?”
Louis rolled his eyes at the change in subject. “To get some lunch and then I was hoping I could come back to yours?” He glanced over at the taller man with pleading eyes.
Harry’s eyes widened. “That’s very forward of you.”
Louis eyebrows scrunched before he realized the implication behind his words, “Oh. No. Shit. Sorry. I just meant that I wanted to hang out with your cats.”
Or Louis is one of the two veterinarians in town and somehow gets lucky enough for Harry’s three cats to be his clients.
🔹Drunk On Your Lips by Kikiberoski16 / @larrysballetslippers [E, 4k, Harry/Louis]
“Yeah? I’m Louis, does it ring a bell?” She bowed, it was adorable. Harry could follow her long locks sway as she went down. It was hypnotizing. Harry always envied the girls that could grow their hair to their bra. Louis was one of them, while Harry was forever stuck to her curly bob. When she got up again, Harry witnessed a smirk.
That smirk gave her so many feelings. Harry felt like she had known it for ages, but it hurt for no reason at all. Even worse, it stung, Harry just remembered feeling a sharp pain in her chest. “You know what? It does. I remember not liking you.”
🔹wonder what it's like by eynap / @panye [E, 4k, Niall/Shawn Mendes]
“Did you call up a model to fuck you?” Shawn asks from across the room. “I’ve heard of this happening to my coworkers.”
“No, I tried to use magic to make a copy of you from a magazine I had. Or, like, make the photo come to life. I didn’t mean to…” Niall shakes his head. This is mortifying. “I can send you back, hold on.”
Or, Niall uses his Halloween magic to make photos of the male model he's obsessed with come to life. Instead, he accidentally summons the real-life model, Shawn, to his workroom.
🔹You're The Pumpkin Of My Eye by @faithinwalls369 [G, 4k, Harry/Louis]
Harry and Louis go on a seasonal date, that is sweeter than the confectionery in a trick or treat bucket. It’s filled with sweet snuggles, cute kisses and pumpkin picking.
🔹i wish that i could take you to the stars by me_her_themoon / @dreamersdivin-headfirst [E, 31k, Louis/Harry]
Niall is the director and writer of a stage play and he casts his best friend, Harry, as the star of his new play, “Me, Him, and the Moon,” as a prince who’s mesmerized by the moon. When he meets his sunshine-embodied costar, Louis, who is playing the role of a boy who’s deeply enamored with the stars, he learns more about himself and his relationship with love than ever before.
[also, liam is the makeup artist who loves to gossip and zayn is the costume designer who thinks liam is cute]
🔹Under the Milky Way by jacaranda_bloom / @jacaranda-bloom [E, 11k, Harry/Louis]
Louis had always been a prankster, but being on tour provided him with countless opportunities to hone his skills with silly jokes and games, harmless really, and all in good fun. That was until the night he accidentally ended up in the wrong hotel room and dumped a bucket of iced water over a complete stranger.
Or the one where Louis is a rock star on tour, Harry is a free lance photographer, and drinking red wine under the stars might just be worth the hangover.
🔹Who do you belong to? by @huggieshalo [E, 3k, Louis/Harry]
“I trust you. You’ll take care of me like I take care of you.” Louis said.
And Harry believes him.
Or the one where they switch roles because it’s good to spice things up from time to time
🔹You Can Let it Go by @huggieshalo [M, 8k, Harry/Louis]
An alternative story where Harry is Matilda, who never stayed with Miss Honey and had to leave with his awful family. After years of being closed off, someone shows him that his life doesn't have to stay the way it is…
🔹something to dream about by @disgruntledkittenface [M, 100 words, Louis/Harry]
Louis gives Harry something to dream about while she's gone.
🔹Could We Live With Just A Taste? by @lululawrence [NR, 17k, Louis/Harry/Nick Grimshaw]
“Green eyes…” Louis mused in the living room. “I swear I’ll come up with something that rhymes with that soon enough. I will.”
“Oh god, you’ve been smoking. I wouldn’t have come if I’d known you’d been smoking,” Nick moaned as he turned the corner fully and saw the way Louis was sprawled out on the sofa, his head in Harry’s lap as he poked his fingers into Harry’s dimples.
“Nicholas!” Louis cheered, sitting up. “We’ve not been smoking, but we are a little high. Just a bit. Sit here, sit here. I invited you, which means you’re mine tonight, not Harry’s. Got that?”
Nick looked at Harry with his eyes raised. “Am I usually young Harold’s possession? Here I was thinking I was my own person.”
Both Harry and Louis’ faces scrunched up in looks of distaste causing Niall to laugh.
“Possessive fuckers. Let’s just start the film.”
Or the one where Louis, Harry, and Nick all take awhile to figure things out, but they get there eventually.
🔹Anytime, Everytime by @laynefaire [G, 100 words, Zayn/Liam]
They say confession is good for the soul, but what about the heart? Can it find the right words?
🔹Doin' Somethin' Right by @laynefaire [E, 5k, Zayn/Liam]
Liam is certain he's finally put all the pieces of the puzzle back together. He was back on stage with his boys, doing what he loved, in front of the fans who had never forgotten them. He'd also reunited with Zayn, rekindling the love they'd once thought had been lost forever.
While Liam craved the bright lights and excitement of being on the road, Zayn has eschewed his prior fame, instead choosing a life of relative obscurity as the owner of a vineyard and bed and breakfast in Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.
Liam is determined to protect Zayn's privacy at all costs, but some days the separation is harder than others.
Written for the 1D Country Fic Fest, and inspired by the song Must be Doin' Somethin' Right by Billy Currington.
🔹Hair of the Dog by @laynefaire [G, 100 words, Zayn/Liam]
Sometimes, it's the little things that matter most.
🔹More Than a Mic Drop by @haztobegood [E, 7k, Louis/Harry]
“You dropped the mic last night.”
“Oh, yeah. I did.” Louis gives a little shrug. He tucks his hands into the pockets of his baggy grey sweatpants.
“That was really careless.” His tone is very stern, unlike his usual bubbly and helpful voice when he suggests Louis try singing a chorus for the third time as he adjusts the sound mix again. Harry levels him a serious look and suddenly the room feels too hot. “You could have broken the mic and we don’t have a lot of spares.”
🔹under all the summer skies by @orchidsbyjune [G, 4k, Harry/Louis]
“I wait every year for summer, and it is usually good, but it is never as good as that summer I am always waiting for.”
- Martha Gellhorn, Selected Letters of Martha Gellhorn; in a letter to Hortense Flexner and Wincie King.
Or The summers in which Louis was in love.
🔹the scent of love by @orchidsbyjune [T, 3k, Louis/Harry]
“ As a constant, Paris would often wonder what makes someone somebody. They would, as any other, spend a lot of their time just guessing what brings life to someone. They live by the guesswork, and the fun it brings just trying to figure out what keeps them up, what brought them the courage to leave everything behind and see the world out there. ”
— A story of survival, of courage and love.
🔹love letters by @orchidsbyjune [T, 940 words, Louis/Harry]
It’s a love letter.
🔹Driftwood by @justanothershadeofblue [M, 51k, Harry/Louis]
Eroda was all Harry knew. He lived there all his life, but he always knew he was peculiar. He had dreams that go beyond this small, cold, and lonely island. He wanted to leave; he HAD to leave. But that meant leaving Louis...
Harry is a lonely and depressed popstar who sailed out of his hometown on Eroda years ago to chase his dreams. He comes back to the island only to find his shining childhood best friend Louis just as cold and dreary as the island they grew up on.
🔹Dip you in honey by @lunarheslwt [M, 7k, Louis/Harry]
Louis bucked his hips, arching off the couch, moans spilling like honey. “I’m so close already, oh god.”
Harry’s relentless grinding was just the right pace, and his mind was slowly turning into nothing but a pleasure-filled haze, and nothing could stop him from hurtling over the edge soon-
“Oh fuck, my cornbread!”
Louis reeled.
“Wha”-
“My cornbread. I’d left it in to bake, remember? I think it’s starting to burn!”
“You can’t be serious, Harold.”
Or, Harry has been baking cornbread for seven days in a row. Louis has no idea what’s going on, but is ever the sweet and supportive husband. At least their baby, Amelia, seems placated by the bread.
Contrary to popular belief, there is however, a thing such as ‘too much bread.’
Based on a reddit story!
🔹Flirting In a Sushi Restaurant by @littleroverlouis [T, 2k, Louis/Harry]
Bright green eyes slowly blink up at the ceiling and his glossy pink lips are frozen in a small smile. Louis’ eyes trail down from his tattooed collarbones, to his toned chest, and land on the leaf dotted with toro scallion rolls under his rosy nipples. He feels like a bit of a creep hovering a set of tongs over someone’s nipple, but was a sucker for a toro roll. A deep voice startles him as he grabs a second roll.
“Big fan of those I see.”
Louis jerks his hand back, the roll dropping from the tongs and landing on the model's arm with a dull plop.
“Shit, fuck,” Louis stutters.
“Sorry. Didn’t mean to scare you. My name's Harry.”
Or sushi model Harry flirts with hungry Louis.
🔹be the artist to my muse by forthetherapy / @forthetherapyy [E, 9k, Harry/Louis]
“I think I’m in love,” Harry says, flopping back to lay on the bench again.
Nick sighs and pats Harry on the head.
“There, there. You’ll forget him in a day or so.”
or harry has been unsuccessfully pining over louis for a while now, he decides to take drastic measures to get the alluring artist to notice him.
🔹When the Dust Settles by @mercurial-madhouse [E, 5k+, wip, Louis/Harry]
Threatened by the power omegas hold, alphas waged a civil war that resulted in the extinction of male omegas. Three centuries on, Louis and his lads risk their lives smuggling the omegas that remain to safety.
When Louis proves the impossible to be possible and presents as a male omega, will the quiet rebellion he's worked so hard to create be maintained, or will his newfound abilities destroy all he's fought for?
🔹i am easy to find by safetyfilm / @larrieblr [M, 4k, Harry/Louis]
“Am I bothering you?”
Louis doesn’t have to look up to know who it is, not by the voice. He takes out the final package from the mailbox, a fond grin on his face as he answers, “Love, you could never bother me.” He stacks the package in the crook of his elbow, and looks up, then his smile falls into confusion. “But - wait, you’re supposed to be at work?”
“I finished a meeting, took an early lunch,” is Harry’s excuse, as he comes up by Louis, but not entirely. As if he’d been afraid to touch him.
Louis isn’t one to be observant, but today, now, Harry’s caught his eye, and something tells him to look closer.
Or, where two people try to follow their dreams but time isn't on their side.
🔹gallery of us by @levelofcharm [E, 55k, Louis/Harry]
In spite of wanting to sound lucid and coherent for his own big jump, Harry wants to be near and touch, wants to listen to whatever the omega’s saying because he loves that voice, and he's always hated talking unless he has to. They're a good pair, the two of them, a perfect balance. Louis’ all sunshine, good vibes and healthy eating, lingering hugs and sticky cheek kisses, and Harry's the complete opposite without explanation, but fuck, it feels good to be around someone like that. To have someone like that in his life at all.
Harry wants to protect his affectionate ball of light from the world's ignorance, wants to help add to the glow like starting a snowball, rolling it around until it can’t get off the ground because it’s so heavy from all the effort, patience and commitment.
Harry knew what he was doing in life, everything laid out in black-and-white, each day pleasantly predictable. Cue lively art student, Louis, trying to find his place. An almost insufferably happy person who sometimes forgets to hide the way they feel meets the person who is diligent enough to notice and determined to make a difference.

No one can claim that I'm fast, but hey! I finally had a moment to sit down and find some fics for a lovely anon who wandered into my inbox looking for classical musician!larry. A few of these are a little bit of a stretch, but hopefully there's something here you enjoy! You'll see little blue hearts along with a lil comment from me on those I have read (admittedly not that many, oops) This is definitely an AU I'd love to see more fic for! It's possible there's more out there, alas it doesn't seem to be commonly tagged. Make sure to tag your fics folks! It makes filtering for things like this so much easier! 💙
🎼 the school of extraordinary lovers // stylinsoncity @stylinsoncity - 191k
"We keep telling the other, I love you and I love you, and we do, though we both know where the knives are." - Laura Van Prooyen
harry is a third-year witch and violinist at Laitswold, the only magical academy in the UK, with dreams of taking on the world, and hopefully breaking the centuries-old curse on his family while he's at it. he does not dream of facing off against his childhood rival and duet partner, but louis is back in town after six years abroad, so that's exactly what happens.
🎼 Love Is A Rebellious Bird // 100percentsassy, gloria_andrews - 134k
AU in which the boys still make music. Louis is the concertmaster of the London Symphony Orchestra, Harry is the New! and Exciting! interim conductor/ex-cello prodigy who "has made Mozart cool again" according to Esquire Magazine (Louis hates him immediately, which is definitely why he internet stalked him in his dark bedroom late at night that one time), and Niall is the best. Zayn and Liam are around too.
Don't hum Bolero.
💙 zannithinks: one of those 'classics' that many love! I really enjoyed this fic, and as someone who hears Bolero every year at a local festival I think of this fic often
🎼 Saving Symphony Hall // HelloAmHere @helloamhere - 124k
“I think I have an idea,” Louis said. Slowly, and reluctantly, but with a growing sense of the inevitable. “God damnit, I think I have a really good idea.”
“Oh christ, that's the problem-solving face,” Babs said. “Last time we saw that face, he sold a company.”
“Wait, what?” Zayn asked.
“Right place, right time,” Louis said. “Also, fuck my life,”
“What?” Zayn repeated. Niall patted his hand.
“I usually just roll with whatever Louis is about to do,” he said. “It’s better for us all.”
“That’s the attitude,” said Louis, “I’ll tell you tomorrow. Tonight, I need to do some research. Zayn, give me your number. I’m gonna save our symphony.”
💙 zannithinks: I looooove this one! A well developed world and lovable OC's, this is definitely the first fic I think of when I think Larry and Classical Music
🎼 Where Words Fail, Music Speaks // Larry_you_know @larryyouknow - 45k
Louis is a world class violinist. He’s one year over forty, living his best life in New York. One day, he comes to a small town in Connecticut where he inherited a house from his late father. The town looks nice and its people welcome him warmly. The problem is that Louis never knew his father and he doesn’t intend to change anything about it - his father can stuff his last will up his treacherous ass. In a strange coincidence, Louis meets town troubadour Harry, who seems wonderful to him just right until he reveals that Louis’ father was like a dad to him.
Even though Louis tries to convince himself that it shouldn’t - it hurts.
🎼 Until You Remember // Throwthemflowers - 21k
Talented London pianist Louis Tomlinson moves to a small coastal town to escape the elites of his job and the mundanity of his life. Through the music of Debussy he finds a charming, wonderful friend in Harry Styles, the fiancé of the town's mayor. Louis thinks his pining is in vain until he discovers that all may not be as it seems….
🎼 And I'll Be Here When Only the Silence Remains // louisniall @louisniaii - 19k
The one where Louis is a top notch mute violinist and Harry might just be the person he trusts most
🎼 Back to the Sign, and Play Through the End // tomlinsunshine - 17k
Louis is a globally renowned pianist; Harry is the worst page turner this world has ever known.
🎼 Take more of my space, why don't you? // otfuckingp - 10k
Of course, the universe is not on Louis’ side, nor on the side of his mental health. Just as he starts to think they might get away with this empty seat -- yes, they. He and Instrument Man are in this together, a united front against the forces of any more people-- one more person steps onto the plane. He bypasses the first fifteen rows without so much as a falter, but the fact that he slows around 17 gives Louis pause. There aren’t many empty seats in this section... Surely not. Surely the universe wouldn’t be so cruel as to do this to him.
And then there’s another body landing in the seat next to Instrument Man. Well, “landing” might be too polite. Crashing, is more like it. Within the first ten seconds, he’s elbowed instrument Man in the side, dropped something on the floor, and nearly tripped a stewardess with the exuberant flailing of his legs. All in all, completely shattering the tentative silence in row 21 DEF. Fuck.//
Harry and Louis meet on a plane. Louis is not impressed, until he is.
🎼 What is simple in the moonlight, never really is. // judgementdays @judgementdays - 5k
And then they're talking, like they always do on late nights. They talk about the future, about the cute girl who was checking Harry out at Tesco's, about the cute boy who asked for Louis' number the other day. They mostly end up talking about their auditions for the school of their dreams, though.
or
Louis plays piano and Harry plays guitar and they're both trying to get into Juilliard but feelings sort of happen.
🎼 Play Me Something Sweet // nonsensedarling @absolutenonse - 4k
“Hey, I’ve got an idea,” Louis says. Harry just looks at him and lifts an eyebrow in silent question. “How about if you pretend I’m your cello as you try it out, like we used to?”
Or Harry's good at a lot of instruments, but his favorite one to play is Louis.
💙 zannithinks: this one is spicey!!!!
🎼 And I've got something missing tonight. // whisperedbrave @louistomlindaughter - 2k
That night, much like many others, he finishes his dinner and falls asleep to the sound of his neighbor and his piano.
-
or the one where Harry's upstairs neighbor plays the piano every night. one night he stops and Harry can't sleep.
