Summary
A little over a week later, Louis was on his laptop paying a few invoices when he came across an email in the shop’s inbox.
Good afternoon,
I don’t know if you remember me, but I was in your shop a week ago to purchase some pastels. We talked about cherry blossoms and you suggested I go to the Parc De Sceaux. It was just as beautiful as you said it would be. While I was painting, I was thinking about your shop. I don’t mean to be untoward, but are you looking for any summer help? I finish my exams in a couple of weeks and it would interest me greatly to assist and learn your craft.
Thank you for your consideration.
Best,
Harry StylesOr the summer before his last year of art school, Harry secures a job working for Louis, a reclusive pastel maker. He doesn't expect that his planned summer of Parisian debauchery will blossom into something much more.

Summary
Harry fell in love with Louis when he was fifteen, when they were just a scrappy little pop rock MySpace band, and knew he could never tell him. Six years later, their band’s making the highly anticipated follow-up to their breakthrough album, and he’s still in love with Louis and still swallowing it down. It’s harder than ever; he's trying to cope with the end of their casual ‘what happens on tour stays on tour’ arrangement and trying to write songs with Louis without giving everything away.
But he’s used to living with aching absence, to putting the band above his heart, to the way Louis loves him so much and never enough. He can survive.
Then Louis drunkenly marries a fan. And Harry breaks, drowning himself in the album, and the past, and being a cryptic shit on Twitter, and meanwhile the whole band has to learn how to fake a show.

Summary
Twelve years ago, Louis left Greyhaven without a goodbye.
No explanation. No phone call. No letter. Nothing but silence where Harry’s entire future used to be.
Now Harry is back in the town he swore he would never return to, building a life he insists is fine, normal, untouched. Louis is not supposed to be there. Louis is supposed to be a closed chapter, a boy from another lifetime, a wound Harry learned to stop pressing.
Except Louis is there.
He owns a bookshop. He still says Harry’s name like it hurts. And somewhere behind all his apologies is the truth Harry has spent twelve years pretending he no longer wants.

Summary
"You know you want me to leave, this isn't right, stop looking at me like that with tears in your eyes... Curly stop it, you chose him, you ran out to talk to him, and you left me sitting here with a bruised heart. We knew from the start this wouldn't work." Louis turns around and heads for the door when he feels Harry pull at the hem of his jacket. "It's fine, I'll find a ride back to campus."
-OR-
Louis and Harry meet at Penn State. Through the years their relationship runs the roller coaster of emotions until, just maybe, they might realize they should have been together all along.
