I crawled up into a ball and sobbed after reading this. Good stuff!

Summary
It’s 8:50 when Zayn pops his head around the corner of Harry’s cubicle.
“Dude, I really can’t talk right now. If I don’t finish this report—“
“You hear about that plane crash?”
Harry stops short. “— what?”
“Louis works in that area doesn’t he?”
“What?” Harry’s hand is frozen in midair, halfway towards scratching his neck.
“Yeah, some plane just rammed into one of the Twin Towers, I guess. Ben is—“
Harry’s blood doesn’t run cold and his heart doesn’t skip a beat. The wind isn’t knocked out of him and his stomach doesn’t drop.
He’s mostly just confused.

Summary
Harry feels nauseous when he opens his mouth. "Hey. Um, hi. It's me," he mumbles before realizing with a jolt that Louis might not have his number anymore. "It's Harry... Styles," he tacks on, screwing his eyes shut and pinching the bridge of his nose. This was a terrible idea.
There's silence on the other end for a long time. Harry understands. He shouldn't have called. He tries not to let the static swallow him whole.
"I – yeah. Hi," Louis finally answers, slowly, awkwardly. "I um. Sorry. I heard about your accident. You're alright?"
Or, the one where Harry hasn't spoken to his best friend in sixteen months and can't remember why.

My favorite amnesia fic ever. Harry being so lost without his memories, but still adamant about one thing, that he loves Louis, even when he's told again and again that they no longer speak to one another. His pining and feelings always make my heart break for him, but it's okay because the ending is beautiful and happy and wonderful. I love this fic so much.

This is my No. 1 comfort fic in this fandom. It is just that good. A beautiful portrayal of Louis realizing that he's always loved Harry. The way he's so close to understanding, the way he feels so much for these alternate universe Harry's, but he just doesn't get it, until he does. And, of course, Harry being so completely in love with Louis in every universe. His feelings are so poignant and strong and it gets to me every time. I've read it several times, and I'll read it more times in the future. I always tear up reading it. It's perfect.
