    Summary

    “Do you want to marry me or do you just want to keep the one reminder of your brother in your life?” Alby feels like an ass, but truthfully? He wouldn’t have even dated Niall after seeing him at the clinic if he had known Ruben would still be fucking prevalent.

    “What? What the hell does that mean, Albert?”

    “Anyone can see it, Niall! You’ve spent the past four years talking about Ruben and your school years with him, waxing poetic about how much he cared for you and how you wish he would just fix things so you could be with your brother again. I’m the only fucking connection you have to Ruben anymore, or, I was. Now you have the real thing showing up at our wedding just to make me fucking scared again, to remind us that no matter what we do, he was the one that touched us first. He claimed us first and he will always control our relationship, even when he isn’t there.”
    Or,
    Alby makes a hard realization on the day of his and Niall's wedding, and Niall doesn't know how to feel about it.
