Niall Horan / Zayn Malik | T | 1k

tags: panic attacks, canon compliant, hurt/comfort

Niall focussed on Zayn’s steady heartbeat, tried to use it to ground himself. thump, thump, thump One, two, three. He was safe. Always safe in Zayn’s arms.

Harry/Louis/Niall OMC | 4.1k | Teacher-student Roleplay

“You can be the substitute teacher, if you want to. As watching isn’t your thing.” Louis gave him another knowing look, but Niall’s brain wasn’t processing. When he looked around the room and really saw the red chequered skirts, brown walls with a chalkboard, and Louis dressed very teacher-like, it clicked. “I… I didn’t mean I would… this wasn’t… aren’t you guys like exclusive?” Or, Harry's co-worker joins in for a roleplay scene.

The Show by AlmightyPrincess

The Story is a part of the @theshowficfest

Niall / Louis - 3.2k - Explicite

What happens in Glastonbury, stays in Glastonbury. That's what Louis and Niall had established over the years. It was just sex, nothing more. At least for Louis. Niall on the other hand, has no choice but to fake a show, to get a piece of the love of his life.

Niall Horan / Zayn Malik | E | 5k

Niall spends too much time in his own head, almost breaking his (and Zayn's) heart in the process.

Two Stars Passing By

By Stria on AO3

“I’ll have you know, I’m perfectly comfortable not looking and acting like a traditional alpha.” He needs Lewis to know that, for some reason. “Sure, mr feminism,” Lewis snorts. “Come on, we’re missing the game.” (Or, fluffy slice-of-life moments in Niall and Lewis' relationship)

A Green Christmas by tommokat

Niall/Shawn | 871 | Teen and Up Audiences

A short, sweet snapshot of Niall and Shawn’s first holiday season living together.

Inspired by the gentle, warm feeling of “home is a person” that Never Grow Up by Niall Horan gives me. And the photo of Niall with a tree over his shoulder.

Written for @theshowficfest, inspired by Never Grow Up

Sometimes, Niall still thinks about the way Zayn’s laugh sounds when they watch TV and Niall makes up fake answers for whatever quiz show they’re watching.

Hope We Grow Old But We Never Grow Up by @enchantedlandcoffee

Niall Horan/Harry Styles | General Audiences | 5.2k

But Niall was convinced that Harry couldn't like him back, that just wouldn't make sense. Both of them couldn't be that oblivious to how the other one felt. …Right? So he did the only logical thing his 17 year old self could think of. He flirted back. OR Three key moments in Niall and Harry's relationship.

[runaway-train-works]

Lewis, in retrospect, is correct. Niall won’t do anything about it. He won’t because he’s terrified of getting laughed at, the rejection that sometimes comes with putting your heart and feelings on the line. The last time he did this, with his ex-girlfriend, she laughed in his face and told him to kick rocks. So excuse Niall for not being the one to make the first move.  It’s not that he doesn’t believe that Shawn won’t do anything about it. Well, it is because he doesn’t believe that Shawn won’t do anything about it. Niall knows he’s a desirable man from his time in One Direction. However, he was never that desirable, not according to Simon, at least. Time since the hiatus has made him realize he shouldn’t put his opinions into someone who got pec implants. Niall just doesn’t believe he would ever find a love like he did with Shawn.

niall and shawn are in love. if they could both realize this, that would be lovely.

Every Star Falls

by @sullenlarry

Niall/Harry, Shawn Mendes | T | 1,1k | Angst and Hurt/Comfort

Niall heads for a meltdown. Harry provides him comfort. Based off of "Meltdown" by Niall Horan.

Must Be Love

General Audiences | 45k | Harry Styles/Niall Horan

Niall always runs from his problems. So fleeing from London to the quiet Welsh town Hay-On-Wye isn’t surprising.

Being a suspect in a murder case is.

And so is falling for the cute bookshop owner that’s trying to help him clear his name.

God Only Knows (Where This Could Go)

Rating: Teen and up Wordcount: 4k Written for @theshowficfest

”Alright, we will play a few more songs but we could need some help. Shawn, will you join us for our last couple of songs?” Lewis holds his arm out, gesturing towards the back of the stage for someone to step out from behind the curtain. Niall can hear a few people inhale. ”Oh my god, is that Shawn Mendes?” A girl next to Niall whispers to her friend. And Niall's heart drops.

i'll follow you til there's no tomorrow by liberty_barnes/@liberty-barnes (G, 12.2k words)

Written for @theshowficfest inspired by the song You Could Start A Cult

“Do you know if you want to keep her or surrender her to the shelter?”

Well. Did he?

He wasn’t equipped to take care of a dog. He could barely take care of himself and since his… fatigue started, he didn’t want to. It would be better to surrender her. Give her a chance to be taken in by a loving family who would love her like she deserves.

One look into her golden brown eyes was all it took for him to throw caution to the wind.

“What do I need to do to keep her?”

[or, the story of how a stray puppy saved Niall's life.]
