[calumsboy]

fics I've read this year (so far) and loved!

i go through fits and spurts of reading fic but i'm always so grateful when i end up on someone else's rec list, so i wanted to try my hand at making one of my own!

below is a mix of fics - they'll all be 1D, but that's about all I can guarantee as far as content goes. hope you find something you enjoy!

Wrong Side Of Love by scottmcniceass 37k | explicit | ziam bodyswap | 2013

Zayn and Liam wake up in each other's bodies.

i loved this!! such a 2013 fic in all the right ways to make me nostalgic i was craving some ziam recently and this really hit the spot

Dull Light, Sharp Edges by finelinefeelings 54k | explicit | strangers to lovers | 2025

harrys never been lonelier and thats when he meets bridgeboy, a homeless louis who can avoid questions like no other. naturally he brings him home.

this is by my lovely friend chess and its such a soft and gentle fic even if you want to bang their heads together bc they're being such boys about the whole thing - plus it has the realest first kiss scene i've ever read!

Damn, I Wish I Was Your Lover by @lovingstheantidote 6k | explicit | strangers to (pasta) lovers | 2021

Louis is infatuated by the hot new pasta chef. He gets so much more than just dinner.

im so glad nikki started reblogging my fics so i had the push to read this one!! it's such a sweet little fic until it's naughty and i looove the theming around the pasta and to steal my own quote from my comment on the fic it was executed al dente 🍝

Some Girls by Rave 8k | explicit | ziam but zayn wakes up as a girl | 2013

“I did some research,” Liam says, busily pulling up Safari. His voice sounds masterfully, miraculously steady in his own ears. “I think probably the best thing to do is like, get to know yourself. Um. And your, like. New equipment." Zayn wakes up a girl. Liam tries to be helpful.

this might be my all time fave ziam smut - or maybe I'm just nostalgic for it because I read it so many times back in the day. soooo sexy and sensual and a lovely exploration of it all - and three different parts to look forward to!!

Let Your Tears Fall (No I Won't Judge You) by @loveislarryislove 8k | explicit | identity exploration for larry | 2024

Four times Harry cries during sex. And four times Louis is right there beside him, giving him all the comfort and support and validation he needs.

i genuinely loved this one so much!! there's something so special to me about exploration of asexuality/asexual themes and finding a partner that works alongside it and supports you. it's so sweet (i say about what is arguably quite a smutty fic lmfao)

It All Comes Out in the Wash by @ltwritten 18.5k | teen and up | h is a ghost | 2024

Harry’s a ghost that’s been stuck in a laundromat for 70 years. And Louis is so in love that he can’t imagine being without him.

this is another by a lovely little friend on twitter - such an endearing fic. i was initially a little hesitant bc i am a scaredy cat when it comes to angst and i thought ghost might equal angst but it really doesn't!! it's so sweet and cute and the push that really got me to read it was ghost h collects buttons 🥺

Just Us by orphan account 54k | explicit | ot5 | 2013

University!AU (kind of, very little University actually involved). Louis and Harry have decided, as Harry is going off to Australia for way too long, to be non-exclusive. Now all Louis has to do is actually find someone other than Harry that he wants to fuck.

there is truly nothing like a 2013 ot5 fic i have to say it!!!! this one is very sweet and covers a lot of different dynamics that all blend together so beautifully!!!

You've Begun To Feel Like Home by @calumsboy 65k | explicit | larry | 2025

a story about healing, belonging, friendship, and romantic love that sneaks in like sand between your toes.

another bestie alert!!! this is the angstiest thing (imo) that you'll find on this list bc i am a pussy but it is so gorgeous and c really did an amazing job with it - it's a beautifully crafted world and louis' character development is so gorgeous to read

all the sins you didn't have by @brooklyn-babylon / @twopoppies 99k | explicit | historical larry | 2025

It’s 1880, and premier danseur Harry Styles is running out of time. At twenty-five, he’s fast becoming too old for the lecherous benefactors who frequent The Paris Opera Ballet’s infamous backstage, and the only way to ensure he isn’t left penniless or rotting away in a brothel is to secure a permanent patron.

this one really captured me!! it also inspired me to write my own historical fic (though a different time period but nevertheless) - you really get sucked into the world and so invested in the characters. one of those ones where you feel like you're reading a book!!

to be loved (and to be in love) by @blueneptuune 20k | teen and up | larry abo | 2024

After a few years trying to make it on his own, Harry is forced to return home due to his worsening conditions. He expects the experience to be nothing short of humiliating, but it turns out kindness is lingering in the strangest of places -- you just have to be brave enough to ask for help.

such a gorg touch depri centred fic!! i loved how the author takes you through harry's emotions so carefully and how caring they wrote louis. and if i'm not mistaken, i think they're a fellow nz author!! 🇳🇿

And That Was That by @lightwoodsmagic 22k | explicit | poly ot4 | 2019

Zayn and Liam have been polyamorous for years, but Harry and Louis are monogamous. When Zayn meets Louis and starts to fall for him, it opens them all up for something they've never experienced before.

ot4 poly rise (so sorry niall but like... this is where it's at). there really just is something so lovely about poly negotiations in fic and especially with the boys because you can see it going so many different directions. this one even managed to convince me on the lirry which is no small feat (lmfao)

Angels Fly by LilyBlue28 203k | explicit | larry abo shifter fic | 2022

Harry is a lonely omega in the North Western White River Pack who is uncharacteristically drawn to nature and his now outdated primal instincts. But what happens when one day he spots the pack alpha, Louis, having an intimate moment with something, or someone, unexpected? 

there is truly nothing like a fic where they actually shift into wolves lmfao. this one is a rollercoaster, filled with lots of ups and downs for the pair of them but the thing that strikes me most is i can still recall my imagined scene for where h spends most of his time and that means its stayed with me right?

butterflies caught on film by @sunflower-sue 25k | explicit | strangers to lovers | 2025

One sunny spring day in London, Harry takes a film photo of a beautiful stranger in the park. He insists that Harry must send him the photo, and together they fall into a whirlwind romance. Butterflies. So many butterflies.

such a cutie patootie fic with pilates panties power bottom princess harry and a very kind and caring louis - some miscommunication but if there's none of that then how would we have this fic? 🦋 also by a lovely bestie so you'll note i am quite partial to reading people's fics who interact with me lmfao

The Thrill of the Chase (Are You Mine?) by @silverstuff50 29k | explicit | larry abo | 2024

Louis is feral. Harry fucks up.

this was so lovely!! very well written and very carefully manages the feral state - h definitely does fuck up but i like to think he makes it right!

The Touch Of Your Hand by @emilarry 8k | explicit | dick piercing oriented | 2023

Louis has decided to bite the bullet and get himself a dick piercing. He knows it’s going to hurt, but what he doesn’t know is how to calm down when he finds himself on the brink of a panic attack in front of the incredibly attractive piercer, Harry. Luckily, Harry is really sweet and offers to help ease his nerves.

yet another bestie alert!!! this one is so fun and takes client comfort to a whole new level!!! also i specifically love at the start where h makes fun of zayn for being cut lmfao we lowkey need more anatomy specific fics 👀

Desire Paths by @hazelteadreams 150k | mature | magic infused love | 2025

On the Cheshire Plain, in a small, queer town called Whylom Green, a peculiar old manor house and its adjoining meadow are teeming with magic. When charming newcomer Louis Tomlinson spots the unusual place from the road, he has no way of predicting how the home and its caretaker, Dr. Harry Styles, will alter the course of his life. Can Louis, heart unmoored, put down an anchor? Can Harry, lost at sea, accept a helping hand? Can their collective friends and family, a motley crew of farmers and artists and lovers and witches, give them a reason to hope again?

this was my last read for this half of the year and it is so gorgeous!!! you can really feel the love and care that went into crafting this fic - even down to the cartography (the author literally has a map for the small town its set in and it's so cute!!!). there's really something special about a fic when you're uncovering a mystery alongside the characters and i can say i've truly never read anything like it!!

and that's (some of) what I've read in 2025! i hope you find something you like!!

still not enough? check out the (much smaller) rec list over on @zourryficfest - we will be posting a (zourry focussed) rec list each month until October, and then from November we'll start posting the new fics our authors have written for the fest!!

stiiill not enough? i also write fics (a bit of shameless self promotion never hurt anyone lmfao)

Hell or High Water

by xunorthodox

“You’re unmated. That means I’ll be breeding you during your next heat.” Louis’ hands go clammy. His pulse kicks. The herbs throb in his veins, dragging down his instincts like iron weights. OR Pretending to be an omega seems like a good idea to rogue alpha Louis, until it isn’t.

＊ Knot Together by larryftnoctrl / @the-larry-way [E, 22k, Louis/Harry]

A pair of matching Christmas sweaters might just be the Christmas magic needed to bring two oblivious idiots together.

＊ You Have It Easy by @louislittletomlintum [E, 6k, Harry/Louis]

“There’s no way you do all that for yourself,” Louis insisted to him, biting his lip to stop the smile when Harry’s face instantly morphed into his grumpy kitten expression.

“I do too,” Harry replied petulantly.

“Okay, forget I said anything. I don’t want to talk about your sex life anymore,” Liam insisted, sinking back down into the couch.

“I told ya it wouldn’t go your way,” Niall insisted conspiratorially, getting Louis to giggle again, but his mind was elsewhere. Mainly on images of Harry alone in his bed teasing himself until he was squirming for it.

or the one where Harry shows Louis exactly how he gets himself off

＊ you're all i ever dreamed of by staybeautiful / @harruandlou [E, 53k, Louis/Harry]

Harry sank lower until his chin was hovering just above the water line. He had his mug balancing precariously against the lip of the bath. It had to be cooling already, but he still looked serene, like there was nowhere else he’d rather be.

“I could live here,” Harry said, smiling with his eyes closed.

It was as if the words sprung from Louis’ mind, his mouth, and twisted into Harry’s. His heart picked up and before he could stop them they were tumbling out.

“Okay, you should,” he stuttered and Harry turned to look at him. “You should move in with me.”

 Or after a Monday lunch with Zayn, Louis finds himself reevaluating what "too soon" means, especially when it comes to Harry. Part 2 of such a beautiful dream

＊ Quite Like You by @reminiscingintherain [M, 11k, Zayn/Louis]

Zayn rolled his eyes and let out a heavy sigh as he walked slowly across the room, swaying carefully to accommodate his large bump.

“Your daughter’s playing football with my bladder, and using my kidneys for boxing practice,” he grunted out, flopping heavily into the armchair, letting his head rest against the back. “I can’t remember the last time I saw my feet, my back feels like it’s been inverted, and my hips are just completely fucked.” He rolled his head to look at Louis. “I feel incredibly far from gorgeous right now.”

“Well, I’m telling you, I’ve seen you in many, many states over the years, babe, and this… this is definitely the epitome,” Louis murmured. Told in a series of flashbacks, the story of Zayn and Louis from children to parents.

＊ i close my eyes, and the flashback starts by harrysboy / @calumsboy [M, 7k, Harry/Louis]

Of course, he didn’t know how this one would end, but the past seven months with Louis had made him think it would end with them hugging each other in their beds at an old age. He really thought Louis would last, he really wanted Louis to last. He wanted his happy ending with him.

or, harry and louis fall in love, and that becomes their downfall. a modern romeo and juliet inspired story of love and tragedy.

＊ If Time Keeps Moving Just Like This by Worldsofdreamers / @defences-down [E, 3k, Zayn/Niall]

Birthday celebrations don't typically start with breaking and entering but he wasn't supposed to be here at all, so hopefully, Zayn will forgive Niall for the inevitable heart attack that comes with a surprise like this.

Or what they get up to on Zayn's 32nd birthday. Part 5 of Whenever, wherever

＊ How It Found Us by Worldsofdreamers / @defences-down [E, 117k, Zayn/Niall]

If you had asked either man a decade ago if they were in love with each other they would have stammered and stuttered their way to a denial. Of course, they weren’t interested in each other like that, they were just friends.

Good friends.

Never mind that they hooked up behind closed doors. Never mind that they wrote about each other constantly. Never mind they spent days in the other’s bed and there were things only the other knew.

Things changed when Zayn left but that love and the confusion surrounding that love didn’t change. They went on writing about each other and thinking about each other and eventually, the fog began to clear.

Fall of 2024 rolls around and they find themselves on a writing retreat/reunion at Zayn’s farm. Can they finally figure out what it means and give it a shot? Or will this be one of those things? A story that plays on in a memory while the future marches ever forward. A youthful comfort and nothing more.

So much has changed in the almost decade since they were together last, could they really make it work?
