    Summary

    Harry wants Zayn, so bad that he's light-headed with it. He wants him so bad that it's getting increasingly difficult to wake up everyday and chant friends friends friends until he's convinced himself because that's what they are, friends. But he also forgets, at the mere sight of Zayn grinning, he forgets in a breath. Because it's easy to forget with him, because Zayn's easy to love and want.

    or an AU where Harry's most probably in love with Zayn but Zayn won't even talk to him.

    Summary

    Zayn transfers to NYU expecting a fresh start, not a reunion with a ghost. His new dorm mate Louis is loud, brilliant, endlessly loyal—and a reminder of everything he lost. Because Harry’s there too. Harry, who was once his best friend. Harry, who doesn’t look at him anymore.

    -

    Harry thought he’d buried it.
    The memory of Zayn—his laugh, his touch, the way everything used to orbit between them when they were still them. NYU was supposed to be his restart, a city full of noise loud enough to drown out the silence Zayn left behind. And then Zayn shows up.

    Summary

    They change with the seasons, burning bright during the summer and biting cold during the winter, but that feeling of being in love Zayn found in the summer clings to him through it all.

    Summary

    Over the next two weeks, Harry manages to cut open his finger three times, spill boiling water on himself once, and turn his skin polka-dotted, and somehow Potions is still the highlight of Zayn’s week. It’s just…in Potions, he doesn’t remember the absence at his side, doesn’t remember how even if he hangs out with Liam or any of the other Gryffindors, it still feels like something’s missing, something not even Louis’s regular letters can help. But in Potions, it feels like Zayn’s laughing too hard at Harry and Niall’s antics to remember that.

    Summary

    Zayn wants everything that isn't small town Vermont, a place he can never seem to escape no matter how hard he tries. All he wants is the warmth of stage lights on his skin, his guitar in hand, singing with a voice like heaven in a place where he finally means something — where he finally matters.

    Unfortunately for him, his return back to his hometown is welcomed by none other than Liam Payne, their high school's former all-star football player turned mechanic, and resident pain in his ass that just won't leave him alone. Within a small town, population 500, there's no escaping him... but maybe that's not as bad a thing as he thought.
