    Louis, to his horror, attends an elitist university in which the name Zayn Malik means something, Niall Horan doesn't stop talking, there are pianos everywhere, and Harry Styles, only son of a drug-addled, clinically insane ex-rocker, has a perfect smile and empty eyes.

    Summary

    After recovering from a tumultuous upbringing, Harry has established a peaceful life for himself in Doncaster. He has a successful career practicing art therapy at Safe Harbor Creative Therapy, and spends most of his downtime with his uni roommate turned best friend, Niall.

    Following the untimely death of his mother, Louis has become the sole caretaker and provider for his siblings, and works two jobs to ensure that the needs of his family are met, while neglecting his own. When Daisy, one of his twin sisters, has a hard time managing her grief and turns to dangerous coping strategies, Louis brings her to Safe Harbor to work with Harry, at his wits end and unsure of how to help her heal. In the following weeks, lines are crossed, feelings develop, and they both find something in the other that they never knew they needed.

    Summary

    "What..." Louis’s smile faltered, his eyebrows knitting together. He reached up, caressing Harry’s cheek, his thumb trembling. "Where’s... where’s your ring, Haz?"

    Harry didn't lean into the touch. He stood perfectly still, his eyes filled with a sudden, devastating pity. He gently took Louis’s wrist and pulled Louis's hand away from his face.

    "I haven’t been wearing it for a long time, Louis," Harry said softly.

    Louis stilled, the air in his lungs suddenly turning to ice. "What do you mean?"

    Harry sighed, a heavy, ragged sound, and stepped back into the hallway, creating a cruel, foot-wide chasm between them. He looked at Louis, his face pale under the hallway light.

    "I'm engaged to Zoe," Harry said.

    The words didn't make sense. They didn't fit into the room. Louis let out a sharp, incredulous laugh, shaking his head. "What? For the PR, right? Right, Haz? Well—well, you can just break it off. There’s no contract we can’t buy out. I just settled mine, we can—"

    "No, Louis," Harry interrupted, his voice steady, dropping like lead weights into the quiet house. "Not PR. I proposed to her."

    Harry loves Loves. Louis loves Harry. But it's too late.
