    Summary

    Suddenly, the lights start strobing manically; Liam swears and drops his eyes to the counter. Amid the chaotic flashes reflecting on the chrome surface, he spots something familiar. A chunky ruby ring. He looks up and watches as the lights reveal other puzzle pieces: meticulously messy hair, black leather jacket, a long neck and a bird-like profile. Noel.

    OR

    Liam sees Noel at a nightclub and can't resist

    Summary

    Good things never last. Noel learned that very early on. The bliss of his career, the bliss of his family. It slips through his fingers, and one cold morning, he’s staring at divorce papers that threaten an enormous settlement amount. The walls are crumbling in again.

    It’s not like he didn’t see this coming. It’s not like he didn’t deserve it.

    He signs the papers.

    Glimpses into the story leading up to the 2025 reunion tour. The roads are still winding, the lights are still blinding, and there are still many things left unsaid, left behind to die in a scratched hole under the floorboards of a certain cramped council house. But someone still needs saving. And someone else is realizing what to do.

    Summary

    "What're you gonna do about it? Punish me?"

     

    He caught it—the small, betraying hitch in Liam's breath. And fuck, Noel wanted nothing more than to drag him close, tear that parka off, taste him again, the way he did fifteen years ago.

     

    "Noel…" Liam muttered, trying for steady, though the crack in his voice betrayed him. "Stop it. You're drunk."

     

    "Do I have to be drunk to know what I want?" Noel asked, softer now, tilting his head, letting his breath brush Liam's neck.

     

    "And what is it you want?"

     

    "You."

    Summary

    Loch Lomond, August the 3rd, 1996. Noel makes an inaccurate assumption, or something like that.

    (Or, Liam's engaged, there's a death and a kiss, Noel spirals and everything goes downhill from there.)

    Summary

    After being abandoned once, even the most spoiled dog will engrave that anxiety into its instincts.

    A period of delicate refamiliarization before the 2025 tour. A private meeting at home in between rehearsals. Lots of angst and even more love.
