《Beyond Repair (Larry Stylinson AU)》Chapter Ten- Christmas Morning
Advertisement
"Happy Christmas, Louis!"
Louis groaned, pulling the pillow over his face. "Five more minutes."
"It's Christmas, Lou! C'mon," Harry whined.
"Alright, fine," Louis sighed. With much difficulty, Louis sat up and rubbed the sleep from his tired eyes.
Harry smiled and handed Louis a bag, "Happy Christmas, Louis,"
"Harry,"
"Just open it! It's not that glamorous."
Louis removed the tissue paper from the bag and pulled out a cool vintage t-shirt. Louis grinned, "This is sick, Harry. Thanks. I got you something, too," Louis said with a michervious smirk.
"Ooh, did you?" Harry chuckled as he watched Louis pick up a box and hand it to him.
Harry tore open the box and laughed when he found a crown of flowers personalized by Louis. "This is brilliant, Lou,"
Harry placed the crown over his messy hair. It was constructed with black flowers. "I think this is my favorite,"
Louis grinned sadly. He felt bad. Terrible, even. Harry got him brilliant gifts, and he barely even tried with Harry's. He wondered why Harry had to be so bloody fantastic all the time. "I've never been good a gift giving,"
"It's perfect," Harry said with a smile. He pressed a lingering kiss to Louis cheek, "Thank you."
Louis tugged on his lip-ring, "Thank you, too,"
Harry knit his eyebrows together. "What's the matter?"
"Oh, nothing,"
"Lou, your doing that lip-ring thing. What're you anxious about?"
Louis dropped his head, "I'm fine, really,"
Harry cupped Louis' chin and angled his face towards him. "Please tell me,"
"I don't want to talk about it," Louis stood to his feet and began trudging to the door.
"Lou... Please,"
Louis wasn't sure what emotion was rising in his chest as he rested his hand on the doorknob. Whatever it was it was boiling in his chest, rising higher and higher. "Are you trying to make me feel like rubbish?"

Harry was confused, "What?"
Louis turned to Harry. "It's like you're trying to make me look bad. You say you love me and don't get mad when I don't say it back, you buy me really expensive things for Christmas and my birthday when we both know you can hardly afford food. Who does that!?"
"I-I'm just trying to be nice..." Harry stated quite frankly. "I'm sorry..."
"No you aren't! No one is just nice like that to me! No one loves me, Harry! What do you want from me?!"
Harry shrugged then let his head drop, "I just want to make you happy..."
Tears began to well in Louis' eyes. "People like you don't just exist. You're too kind, and perfect, and sweet. People like you don't just come into my miserable life. Until you tell me what you're playing at, just leave me alone,"
With that he slammed the door shut with all his force. He stood there momentarily, instatntly regretting everything. He listened to the soft sounds on Harry weeping. His heart cracked.
He found himself repeating the question that he seemed to have asked himself loads. What have I done?

The Game of Gods
Charles earns the ultimate surprise one morning when he awakens to discover the world has ended, or rather the gods of old were bored and decided to redesign how it worked. Everyone else got a nice little message that showed up their vision, everyone else woke up when the gods decided to make their decision known.

Tales of Teleios
Born as a noble free-man, the only daughter of a lord, Arete of Syracuse was an ambitious young woman who would do anything to succeed her father's position. One day, her father was exposed of his secret movement attempted to overthrow the emperor... Tales of Teleios set in the ancient Greco-Roman. It is a very standard adventure, low fantasy, alternate historical story with common archetype and predictable storyline. It is a form of artistic expression. 🏳️🌈 LGBTQIA+ Content Tag 🙇 ESL Author 📖 A Very Brief Summary 📖 (Unavoidable Spoiler) This story is about Arete of Syracuse (the protagonist) who was on a journey to find a mysterious Teleios of Eretria. Travelling with her servant Matea, her maternal cousin Agave and a former hetaira named Pryne. Throughout their journey, they discovered the conspiracy behind the Emperor Nero's eugenic system. This story explores the topic of human advancement. Tracing the idea back to the Greco-Roman world, the idea of eugenicism started when humans attempted to achieve perfection through breeding enhancements. However, The Three Elders realised that they couldn't afford waiting on the natural process of evolution. Thus, they came out with the controversial idea of experimentation through the building up of monstrosities using different body parts of animals and attempting to achieve immortality through taking over the younger human bodies. Teleios means perfection, and the center of this story is about the journey of four very flawed characters: The protagonist, Arete was a skinny noble woman who was born premature and had amenorrhea. She was supposed to be drowned by the order of Emperor Claudius due to her imperfection. While Matea was born a perfect healthy person, but has had everything taken away from her. Agave who was born out of wedlock but was fortunate enough to be adopted into a noble family. And Pryne who was on her way to have a loving family but drifted instead throughout the world after making a decision that she deeply regretted and needed to overcome her sense of guilt along the way. The story will explore some of the most controversial topics which involved detestable ancient practices such as pedarastry, where as the Empress Sporus, being the victim of it, coping with her tragic experience through acceptance of the oppressor and her struggle for not being able to conceive. In summary, the topics were largely related to gender and sex. There will be violence and gore, as most of the fantasy works does. while the author here would like to inform the readers that this is not an erotica, nor it has any sentences that involve depiction of sexual activities. Therefore, this story is not for those who seek thrill on its sexual content. A dialogue of Empress Sporus: "The world itself abused us to a level unimaginable! Yet we have to learn to love the world! Simply to live! To make our life a little easier, a little happier. So what is wrong with that? Are you expecting me to go against the emperor when he is the one and only reason I became the empress?" Said Sporus.
