They'd been best friends for years. Niall has always stuck by Zayn's side through, heartbreaks, football games, birthdays you name it. And vice versa. They were practically inseparable. Joined at the hip most people would say. They loved each other unconditionally. They were basically brothers. But the day had to come when they picked different colleges and usually they'd change there situation for each other but under the circumstances it wasn't that easy.

Evie Jones was seemingly in tact. Her life was a representation of perfection. Niall Horan was seemingly self-assured. His life a representation of indifference. On the outside, they were ideal; in no way flawed. But that was the outside- A mirage of falsity. Evie and Niall were platonic. An innocent friendship between two neighbours. But what happens when the outside walls begin to crumble and their built up perfections vanish? Will they step away? Or will they find love and stay? Niall Horan AU - this is fiction. *NOT TRANSLATING* This story will deal with issues that may cause personal triggers - depression, anxiety, and other mental disorders. If you struggle with any of these things, don't hesitate to talk to someone (a professional). You are loved and have a purpose.

Summary: Niam AU! Niall is trapped in a state of emotion he doesn’t recognize, he’s stressed out and he really needs someone to talk to. His friends aren’t there for him, but it seems like someone else is; the helpful stranger with the kind, brown eyes that Niall keeps running into all the time…
