    Summary

    “Act cool.” Buck shivered at the rumble of Eddie’s voice. “I think I got us in on the game.”

    Act cool? Act cool! How was Buck was supposed to act cool when he had Eddie dressed like sin parading Buck around like—

    Buck choked on his tongue as he finally realized what Eddie was doing and why apparently everyone had been so blasé about Buck going undercover after treating him like he was made of glass for weeks.

    “Am I the arm candy?” Eddie was damningly silent.

    Summary

    “Hey, man. Can I get a black coffee to go?”

    “Er…” he says – a faintly bewildered expression on his face. “Yes, I imagine so.”

    Turns out the guy is also British, which is like, whatever. Alex gives him one of his best smiles. “Great, thanks.”

    Hot Barista glances vaguely around himself, then back to Alex. He looks simultaneously surprised and uncertain, like some kind of aggressively handsome time-traveller who’s been unexpectedly yeeted into a different century. After a beat, he says – “From me?”

    “Uh yeah. You’re working here, right?”

    “Well... yes?”

    Alex tries very hard not to sigh.

    Great. Looks like he’s dealing with one of those people who are so attractive, they’ve never had the need to develop any kind of personality beyond that of a Tupperware container of room-temperature potato salad.
    Alex absolutely does not have time for whatever this shit is.

    Summary

    Nick is struggling with being bisexual in a world that seems to assume that straight or gay are the only two legitimate options. Call him a romantic, but he's not interested in hook ups and one night stands. He wants a relationship, with someone he can be his whole self with. And his true self is bi, and proud!

    Charlie is struggling with trust and control after an abusive relationship in high school shatters his self esteem. His therapist has suggested he needs to find a hobby that pushes at his limits of being in control. Charlie thinks Geoff probably meant joining a band, or maybe rock climbing, and not seducing fit guys, who are way out of his league, for one night stands. Same results though, so what's the harm?

    An aged up AU. Our two favourite boys are at the same Uni, but don't know each other yet. Until a chance encounter on a night out that ends up changing everything.

     TW for mentions of self harm, ED, past SA/NonCon - nothing too extreme I hope, but they're definitely mention as part of Charlie's story. It's mainly fluff?

    Summary

    All he really knows is that the stage lights are hot and blinding in a way that makes his shirt cling to his back with sweat and his fringe is beginning to droop even after having his hair cut earlier, and maybe he’d feel more concerned about it if Liam didn’t choose to remedy the insufferable heat by dumping a bottle of Powerade over top of Louis’ head, his eyes narrowed in on the way it cascades in mini-waterfalls over his chest, pupils blown in a way only Louis can detect.
     

    The thing is, Liam never looks at the other boys like that. Louis knows he doesn’t.

    Summary

    "What do you mean they don't know about me?"

    Niall watches Harry shift, watches him loosen and then tighten his hand on the steering wheel, watches him bite at the inside of his cheek. He narrows his gaze when the brunette doesn't answer, reaches forward to mute whatever pop song is playing on the radio. "Harry."

    "I mean- They know about you, they just don't...know about you," Harry corrects, offering Niall an awkward smile. His grip tightens, again, on the steering wheel.

    "Forgive me if I don't know what the difference is," Niall deadpans. "What exactly did you tell them, Haz?"

    Harry hesitates – and Niall can see the movement in his jaw, that Harry’s biting his cheek. A nervous tick.

    "I swear, Harry-"

    "That you were my friend."

    Niall blinks. "Friend?"

    Harry sighs. "I-"

    "I wasn't aware you let your friends suck you off in gas station loos on the way to meet your parents for the first time. Did Nick get to do it too?"

    Summary

    They’re piling up into a car when his phone rings for noon.

    “Liam, it’s-”

    “I know,” Liam says, climbing in after him, and Louis’s quite pleased that he remembered. Liam rests one hand on Louis’s thigh as he leans to the side, pressing a kiss to Louis’s cheek with an exaggerated “Mwah!”

    “What's this about, then?” Niall asks, cocking an eyebrow at Louis.

    “Liam’s paying up a debt.”

    “A sleep debt,” Liam chimes in.

    --

    Louis's always got the best ideas, even when he plays himself.

By this point, nearly finished with his third year at uni, he had just about given up trying to convince them."

    Summary

    Louis' been at the orphanage since day one. Since then he's been in and out of many different homes, each one of them returning him because of the same reason; he's too different, not like other little boys. But one kid can only take so much rejection before he shuts down and loses all hope in himself that even when a family does take him home for good, treats him as their own child and loves him unconditionally for many years, he still has his doubts. When Louis returns from Uni to visit his family he finds himself struggling to keep the secret that he just knows will make him lose his family and he doesn't know if he could handle that. He knows it's what all those other families saw in him as a kid and he just knows that his family won't put up with it, why would they?

    Will Louis be able to keep his secret? Does he really want to if it means living an extremely unhappy life, pretending to be something he's not and hurting someone he cares deeply for? Louis just doesn't know what to do, either way, he knows he is losing someone he cares about.
