and so I have to say (before I go)

[Larry, 27k]

Sometimes falling in love is taking a leap of faith, jumping into the unknown with your eyes closed, hoping someone will be there to catch you.

Sometimes falling in love is seeing the person in front of you, all their flaws and imperfections, and taking that leap nonetheless.

Sometimes it's both.

In Louis' and Harry's case, it's both.

After the gruesome death of his Alpha, Harry takes over as the Captain of the Rose Arrow. Trying his best to uphold her reputation as being the most dreadful pirate ship to sail the Seven Seas.

With the help of his alpha-quartermaster Niall, he manages to keep his secondary gender hidden from everyone except his most trusted crew, as he operates under his late Alpha’s name. Captain Payne.

Everything changes when his ship is taken hostage by Pirate Captain Louis.

To keep his crew, and himself, alive, Harry must play the part of dutiful Omega who’s waiting for his Alpha’s return.

“Have you texted him yet?” Louis looks up from his laptop at the dining table to Zayn, who’s trying to boil water for the pasta they’re having tonight. “Have I texted Niall? You know he’s working tonight, love.” “I’m not talking about Niall. Don’t play dumb, you know who I’m talking about,” Zayn gives him a look before fixing that same look on the pot of not boiling water. “A watched pot never boils, Z. Everyone knows that,” Louis sighs, finishing the last bit of patient notes he needed to transfer over before closing his laptop. “And I don’t know who you’re talking about. I know a lot of hims. Are you talking about Him? The Powerpuff Girls villian?” Zayn rolls his eyes. “You know I’m never talking about Him. Stop avoiding the subject, Lou. I know you haven’t gotten rid of the note.” Louis shifts, feeling caught. “Yes, I have.” Zayn raises an eyebrow. “So, if I go into your room, I won’t find the note from Harry still sitting on your side table like it’s a letter from your lover at war?” Louis blows the hair that’s fallen down his forehead off his face, huffing. “If you’ve got something to say, you can say it. I’m a big boy. We both know I’ve gone through much worse.” An awkward silence hangs over the air, and Louis would almost feel bad if it weren’t true. He knows Zayn doesn’t like hearing about his past, makes his blood boil at the mere thought of someone being less than kind to Louis, but it doesn’t make it any less true. Turning the burner up higher, Zayn moves to grab the pasta. “I think you’re avoiding something that could be good for you,” he says, like it’s as mundane as the weather.

Something To Remember ~ 25k ~ Teen & Up

Every time you meet your soulmate, the event is marked on your skin forever in the form of a corresponding tattoo in roughly the same place on both of your bodies. Sometimes, it takes a few tries before you piece together who that person is, leading some to be more covered in soulmarks than others. Travel writer Louis Tomlinson has no tattoos. Neither does singer and actor Harry Styles. Will a trip to Maui’s most exclusive and private resort bring these two soulmates together, or will their bodies be constant reminders of what they missed out on?

Train Tracks and Porcelain (E, 41k) by jaerie

At the first hint of light, Louis was slowly brought back to consciousness by the growing swell of activity around him. It started in the distance with loud clanks and clatters and rose with the hollers of men and thudding of boots against the solid earth. He listened as he blinked the sleep out of his eyes and tried to place any sounds he was familiar with. It took him too long to remember that he wasn’t back in his rented room. The energy was what floated to him next, a buzz that made him peek through the leaves to see what was going on.

The next moments happened in the strange slow motion of dawn. Shadows were forming into people and things and, there in the middle of it, Louis watched the humongous head of an elephant emerge from a box car right in front of his eyes.

SAW SOME THINGS ON THE OTHER SIDE ||[61K, Larry, M] || a fic by we-are-the-same (AO3) aka @so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed

When Louis moves into the mansion he’s inherited from his great grandfather, he has a plan that consists of three things. One, he’s going to finish writing the next novel in his series. Two, he’s finally going to get over his ex-fiancé. And three, while battling writer’s block and having to resist the urge to kill off the main character in his books – the hot detective based on his ex-fiancé – he’s going to restore the mansion to its former glory.

Unfortunately, Louis’ plan doesn’t take into account the fact that instead of writing murder mysteries, he will find himself in one

[so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed]

It’s not until Harry is wrapped up in a blanket and Zayn’s arms, with his hands clutching his moth plushie, that Zayn asks.

“What happened?”

He’s got his lips pressed to Harry’s temple, his fingers carding soothingly through his hair, and Harry wishes desperately that he could feel comforted, that Zayn’s love was enough to fill the gaping hole he can feel in his chest.

It’s so stupid. He knows it is. Because Louis was just a boy. Just someone that might’ve been placed on Harry’s path for a while, but that was never guaranteed a stay.

But Harry had wanted him to stay. He’d wanted him, more than he can remember ever wanting anyone before. 

“He left,” he mumbles quietly, wishing that he had the energy to wince at the bitter tone in his voice, but he simply doesn’t. Neither does Zayn, who just holds him a little bit tighter in response to his words. “He left me.”

Ocean Wave Blues - Big Bang Teaser

There’s shouts in between metal hitting metal, and Harry’s head feels like it’s going to snap as he looks between everyone. “Sarah! Behind you!” Harry shouts, as he sees one of Louis’ crew sneaking up onher.

Pauli turns, quickly evading the opponent's sword. Harry breathes a sigh of relief as he notices most of Louis’ crew is injured. His crew are winning. Looking down, he sees his hands are covered in blood, and he leans down wiping them in the sand, although it just gets the grains stuck to them.

As he looks up, Harry’s eyes widen as he takes in the sight before him.

Louis stands with his sword against Niall’s throat.

“Louis, what do you have to say about how last week ended?” the reporter asks. There’s a moment of silence. Harry is looking at the reporter, but eventually gives in and looks down the table at Louis. He’s looking straight ahead, as if Harry isn’t even in the room. “If you can’t take the heat, then get out of the kitchen.” Harry leans forwards, placing his arms on the table and leaning onto them to get as close to his microphone as he can while looking at Louis. “And what’s that supposed to mean?” Louis turns to him, his icy blue eyes meeting Harry’s. “Driving is your fuckin’ job, act like it.”

Your A-Team, Your Endgame

“Did you have another fight with Harry?” Liam asks as they move away from everyone, into the kitchen.

“No. Why?” Louis says, perplexed.

“He looks ready to murder you.” Liam subtly looks over towards Harry and sure enough, his gaze on Louis is intensely unwavering.

“Or well, fuck you senseless.” Zayn chimes in with the most absurd possibility before Louis can think of a reply.

“What? Shut up. He does not want to fuck me senseless.”

“Then you can fuck him senseless.”

“Nobody is fucking anybody senseless.” Even the mere notion is enough to make his eyes roll up into their bloody sockets.

“Doesn't mean you don't want to though.” Liam smirks like a true traitor. He really ought to make new friends.

“I'm leaving.” Louis deadpans. He is not going to dignify their idiocy with responses anymore.

Harry Styles/Louis Tomlinson | NR | 74.6k | 18 chapters

“Louis,” Harry breathed happily. His smile widened as he realized he’d finally found him, and he was stood before his soulstar. This was the closest they’d been in 31 Earth years, which had felt extraordinarily long for Harry, even in his star form. He could hardly withhold his happiness at seeing him again.

“Erm, yeah,” Louis said, interrupting Harry’s thoughts with his brows furrowing and looking clearly suspicious. “And you are?”

Harry and Louis are literal stars who have known they were soulmates from their creation eons ago, however when Louis came to Earth to start the next phase of their fated future, he forgot everything. Even Harry.

This leaves Harry to break the rules and instead of waiting for Louis to call him and join him on Earth, he crashes down on his own. Without Louis there to guide him and help him learn how to adjust to having a human body and everything associated with that, Harry has no other choice but to do the best he can.

As Harry tries to correct what has gone wrong, he finds that friendship can be a light even in the darkest night, and through those bonds even separated soulstars can find their fated path once more.
