“Dressing gown?” Niall repeats.
He can play dumb. Put enough disbelief in his tone and Ruben should buy it. He has to.

"A beaut you are." Ruben says and there's no stopping the chuffed smile erupting across Niall's face or his feet kicking in the air."

Summary
His name is Niall.
His name is Niall, and he has a brother. A brother who is on his way to see him right now. Not to pick him up and take him home, he’s reminded, they need a few more days of testing and imaging to make sure his brain isn’t going to bleed into his skull and kill him, but at least now there is someone who can put him back where he is meant to be. Who knew where that was. Who he was.

Summary
“What happens if we never get out of here?” Niall asks.
“I’m going to off us both at least twelve more times,” Ruben tells him, just to make him laugh.
Niall does laugh, rolling his eyes. “Fuck you,” he says, smacking Ruben on the arm. “I’m not worth at least thirteen murder-suicides?”
“Maybe if you’re lucky,” Ruben says.

Summary
This was it. This was the moment he was dreading for ever since Ruben Pallister moved in with them a few years ago. The moment where he sets Ruben off, and he gets beaten to death for it. He tried his hardest never to make it to this point, to be someone Ruben liked — maybe even someone important to him — and yet here he is.

“I’m going to die.”
“Don’t be daft, Niall. It’s six months.”
Mum’s hands are moving restlessly in front of her on the cold plastic table, lips pressed together hard, the line between her brows a deep groove. At least Maura isn’t here.

Summary
Niall doesn't remember Ruben beyond a few hazy recollections. Knows him mostly by name — Maura's son, the one with problems. But when Ruben appears in a teenage Niall's life once more and seems to take an interest in him, Niall needs to figure out if all attention is good attention or if sometimes loneliness is the best option.
aka Ruben is 20 years older than Niall

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.”
