Golden Nugget by jam82, @ubekendt With a supportive boyfriend at his side and a pregnancy book to guide him, Bressie tackles an unexpected pregnancy.

You Love to Sing (I Put It In a Song) by the_painless_moustache, @thepainlessmoustache Bressie gets enough liquid courage in him that he tries to kiss Niall after his performance at the Olympics. Niall pulls away. Art: Mermaid!Niall AU “Where did you come from?” The boy looks dumbfounded by the question, like Bressie’s just asked him what sand is or the color of the sky. He gestures towards the ocean. “Where do you think?”

I’ll Be the Cure (I’ll Fix You With My Love) by kayleejohn, @leprechauncupcakes Bressie is sick so Niall tries to make him feel better. If Love’s a Drug, Show Me the Science Bressie is a physical therapy major and Niall has a bad back. Bressie gives him a massage, and a little something extra on the side.

Love So Warm (Make a Heart Run Wild) by supras, @musuak In which Bressie is a fireman who rescues a kitten from a burning barn and Niall is the village vet.

Falling In Love With the Same Person Repeatedly Is Extraordinary by ziam_paynes (asherly_89), @wolvesinthewind Everyones soulmate’s name appears on their twenty first birthday. For Bressie, it caused panic. Years later when Niall literally bumps into him at a pub things seem to come into focus.

Love Hurts by linvro21, @linvro​ There’s a thin line between love and war.

Til My Breathing Stops by notverypunkofme, @stylingmrstyles​ “What´s wrong?” Niall asks, suddenly all rigid. He remembers, once again, how much Bressie insisted on getting a hotel. How he told Niall that he wouldn’t be going out for drinks with him after the gig, because he needs to get back to Ireland the next day. Niall’s been hoping it’s not poorly covered avoidance, or something worse. A lump forms in his throat, the first sliver of worry licking at the pit of his stomach.

All I Can I Think Of Is You by thestorans, @niallerer​ Because no matter how far away you are from the love of your life, you need to be loyal. Or, what a big city does to a man like Bressie.

If the Whole World Was Watching by patchesjames, @rapideyemichaelstipe Five moments of Niall and Bressie’s relationship, as seen by others.

Niall relates.

Matches Your Eyes (9009 words) by gettingaphdinlarry

A size small. Sure wouldn’t fit Brez. The panties looked high waisted, with a seam up the backside. They were a bright, clear blue. It reminded him of of a swimming pool, and he imagined it in a paint chip with some ridiculous name, like Artesian Water or Capri Bay. The lace formed an abstract floral pattern.

Why would men wear women’s panties? Wouldn’t they be cut funny? Niall looked around his walk-in wardrobe, as if someone might be watching. He stood up and closed the door softly, listening for the click of the latch.

“What´s wrong?” Niall asks, suddenly all rigid. He remembers, once again, how much Bressie insisted on getting a hotel. How he told Niall that he wouldn’t be going out for drinks with him after the gig, because he needs to get back to Ireland the next day.

Love Hurts

One Direction | 2096 words | Niall Breslin/Niall Horan

There’s a thin line between love and war.

Summary: Bressie is sick so Niall tries to make him feel better. [ao3]

Niall uses his keys to unlock Bressie’s door carefully, wincing when they jingle in the quiet air. He waits for a second, but Bressie doesn’t come to meet him. That’s when Niall knows something’s really wrong with Bressie and he’s not just being a baby. Bressie had texted him earlier in the day, telling Niall that he wasn’t well and whinging for some soup, but Niall just thought he was exaggerating.

Now that Bressie doesn’t come and meet him with his usual kiss, Niall has to admit he’s a little worried.

So Niall leaves his jacket and his bag on the couch in the living room and he pads quietly through Bressie’s apartment, pushing Bressie’s bedroom door open to see the man himself lying down on his bed, tucked sweetly underneath his duvet.

Bressie’s lying on his back but his head is nestled between the pillows, turned away from Niall, and his feet are tangled in the sheets. He’s snoring, nasally. It fills the air and makes Niall want to be curled up, right underneath Bressie’s arm.

Niall eases through the open door carefully, pressing his back into the door as he shuts it behind himself, smiling a little when Bressie still doesn’t stir.

Mermaid!Niall AU
