Summary
Jewellery has always looked good on Louis. As the skies were blue and the sugar sweet, Louis was the most beautiful person he had ever gotten to meet. Once upon another life, they had Salome, whose beauty could push a king to obey her and cut another man’s head off. In Harry’s life, he had Louis, who held both his severed head and heart on a golden platter. If she had been clothed only with the most lavish of clothes and jewellery, Louis hadn’t needed as much to get Harry under his clutch. Harry’s cheeks had been set aflame when his 16-year-old defiance had led him to getting a belly piercing; his heart had raced when a UNI crossdressing Halloween party had his cross necklace lying between Louis’ bralette-covered chest; his breath had shortened at Louis’ 21st birthday with his hands in the boy’s coronated hair and his eyes full of the biggest, most kissable smile on the planet.
And now, his heart clenched and his jaw locked as he stared at a ring he wouldn’t have picked sitting on the left hand of the boy he would choose, over and over and over again, yet didn’t choose him.
Or: Harry is hired to plan the wedding of his best friend he is so madly in love with it makes him sick. Literally.

Summary
Louis looked even more beautiful under the glow of a million candles with stars in his eyes and the moon splashing light over his golden skin. He was a warm summer night with sea salt clinging to your skin, or the feeling of hearing the angelic flourish of strings from a lyre performing Hymn to the Muse for the very first time. He was transformative. Metamorphic. Life altering.
“Is that him?”
The words floated in one ear and out the other, hardly a whisper in the back of his mind when he was looking at Louis. Harry exhaled shakily when Louis’ eyes met his, breath rattling behind his ribs, and his chest tightened with the smile of an angel looking back at him. He looked beautiful in his cream chiton with a purple cloak draped over his shoulder, an iris tucked behind his ear.
“What gave him away?” Liam laughed, thick meaty arm slinging around Harry’s shoulders and breaking him from his reverie. “Was it the look of a starved man scrambling for his final scrap of food?”

Summary
Louis was found abandoned at a hospital at six months old and adopted by an older couple who raised him. Now twenty, he studies by night and by day works as a live-in au pair for a family with three little girls. One of the girls, Holly, swears there is a Garden Fairy coming and eating treats she leaves out in the cubby house each night.
When the family goes away for a two week holiday, Louis is secretly tasked with feeding the Fairy. While laying out the food one night he falls from the cubby house and is found by Harry. Harry is different and Louis is fascinated. But as Louis learns how different Harry really is, he discovers his own true home and a very surprising past he never knew.
Cue badgers, bananas and cookies, soulmates, a whole other world, and a future he’d never imagined.

Summary
Harry has dreamed of a world outside the tiny village of Holmes Chapel for as long as he can remember... a world full of magic and adventure and true love.
It was nothing but a childhood dream, however, until an old family friend comes bearing word of a plot against Harry's life and a very dangerous truth: Harry is the rightful heir to the crown and must embark on a perilous quest to reclaim his throne from the ruthless would-be King Simon.
But in the end Harry will find himself fighting for more than a crown, and on the verge of losing something much more precious than his sovereign power.
Because magic might be real, but life is not a fairy tale, and Harry is a prince up against a very big dragon.Or: a medieval fantasy AU in which Harry is a prince in disguise and Louis is the king of the faeries.

Summary
Bridget Jones' Diary AU.
“Harry is not short for Harold,” he corrects, his voice as thick as molasses. He lowers his eyes to Louis’ sequined lapels, rubbing one between two fingers. “Is this small or extra small? It looks lovely.”
Louis breaks away from his grip with a petulant huff and pushes him back with two fingers.
“You’re mocking me. Again.”
Harry smiles and it's a real honest swoop of his lips this time. Louis’ stomach swoops with them.
