can you help the hopeless? / i'm begging on my knees by cake_lovin_ace [Rated T, 8684 Words, Complete, 2021]

andrew would never call himself insecure, but it was insecurity indeed that plagued him, insecurity that wrapped cold hands around his mind on the nights he could not breathe and warped his thoughts until all he could hear was undeserving, undeserving, undeserving.

or

andrew has a bad day. neil helps.

Affection can be shown in so many ways by Theoddgalaxy [Rated T, 5978 Words, Complete, 2021]

Andrew is learning, learning to support, to be supported and it’s terrifying. He’s slowly each day relaxing into normalcy, that is until the nightmares start up again, and Luther contacts Nicky.

Andrew has a nightmare Neil comforts. Nicky gets a call from Luther, and it reminds them all they’ve got a home with the foxes. Andrew also drags Neil to therapy.

tw: nightmares, tw: homophobic slur

Lay Your Head Down by Fortheloveofexy [Rated G, 1025 Words, Complete, 2021]

They don't cuddle, or at least they haven't yet. Neil is open to it, but he's not sure how Andrew feels about it. He doesn't want to push that boundary, if there is one, so he hasn't asked for it.

Until today.

It's a Home by milliewrites [Not Rated (we say T), 5435 Words, Complete, 2020]

" “I just can’t understand how anyone could be quiet about loving someone so strongly when I have to restrain myself from shouting it from the rooftops on a regular basis.”

Erik blushes slightly and reaches for Nicky’s hand. “I don’t get it either, but I really think you’re overthinking this. You can see it, Nicky, if you really pay attention.”

“You’re saying I shouldn’t worry because if I just tilte my head and squint I’ll be able to see to love ricocheting off eachother?” He meant it to be harsh, but Erik just laughs. "

OR

A relationship study into Neil and Andrew from Nicky's POV. But with plot.

Rabbit by @nightlyvoidforecast [Tumblr, 2020]

“I’m not going to run,” Neil frowned, tilting sideways into Andrew’s space. His legs hung out over the ledge while he leaned on his free hand. The other was in his pocket, clenching tightly to his keys.

nerik

still fixing all the cracks by neilwrites [Rated G, 2000 Words, Complete, 2021]

It's May, in Europe. There is absolutely no way Nicky escapes the madness that is Eurovision, not while living in the Klose household. He makes some discoveries along the way.

Nicky sees Erik. He sees beautiful brown eyes and blonde hair. He sees the muscles that could hold up the world.

Nicky sees all of this, and he sees something that he yearns for so deeply it hurts.

Then there is Katja and Hedy and an emergency “I promise Erik, it’s only for a couple of hours they just need me to help with the store because nobody understands how the system works,” and Nicky peers at Erik and his sister from the kitchen door. Hedy’s chubby hands curls around the thick wool of his sweater.

Nicky and Erik takes care of a his niece.
