Summary
“Say it.”
Like a good trainer, Niall knows when he’s asking too much from a puppy. He doubts Ruben will ever be able to articulate this need in him for a long time. Maybe it’ll be easier this way. If only Niall knows it exists, no one else can fill that void in him. He’ll be Ruben’s one and only. Girls come and go, vapid and preening, but Ruben will only ever have one brother.
“I need you.”

Niall trains Ruben like a dog. -

Summary
The sidewalk bit into Niall's thrashing body like teeth. Every deep breath sat cold and dry in his lungs, every muscle drawn painfully taut beneath Ruben. Their limbs tangled frantically as they fought to overpower each other.
They writhed on the ground together like a dance without music, its disjointed rhythm bordering on intimacy in spite of itself.
or: what if Ava never came outside?
