Welcome to our glorious sixth post.

That's right: 6! But let's move on to not bore you with interesting facts ;)

All fills for prompts of the earlier prompt posts go in the post the prompt was posted in. No re-posting or splitting up prompts and fills.
Otherwise it will get very chaotic.

After everything that's happened after the next election Nick splits from Miriam and ends up having a break down.

He goes to live in a sleepy county cottage with David Laws who looks after him. Years later when a newly single Dcam steps down as leader/PM whatever he decides to look up a much stronger Nick.
DavidL. watches them resigned to the fact that Dcam will steal Nick away from him but wants Nick to be happy.
But seeing DCam makes Nick realise that he loves DLaws and they have a happy ending which involves one or more of the following:

A. They show up hand in hand at the Lib Dem conference and are JUST UTTERLY BAMF.
b. They sit outside their house sipping wine and watching a sun set
or C. They have a big fat Lib Dem wedding with the odd Tory invited like George or William.

A/N: Anon is not a mental health expert but has tried to treat the subject as sensitively as possible. My respect and hugs to any anons who've experienced breakdowns for real.The first inkling David Laws had of anything seriously wrong was an early morning phone call at his desk at the Department for Business Inovation and Skills, while reading through the latest IMF report and absently eating a rather indifferent sandwich ( ... )

Danny gave him a troubled look and led him away from the assembled crowd. "I don't know the whole story. Just that his bodyguards came round last night to take him to the Spectator event and he didn't answer the door. When they rang his mobile, he sounded distraught and told them he couldn't go. Nobody could talk him into going. Not even Lena and David Cameron combined." Danny sighed, and wiped a hand over his face. "We just thought he needed rest--you know how insane things have been, and how he always takes the bad press to heart. We got a doctor over, gave him a sedative. Thought he'd be all right this morning, but--oh, god David, I don't know if we can fix this! He won't even see me ( ... )

Oh, Nick, David couldn't help but think, feeling utterly heartsore. "They're not," he said quietly. "They're absolutely not. Half of them are worried nearly sick about you--and the other half are frantically trying to rearrange your schedule for the next few days."

"Oh. God," Nick muttered, and David leant forward as though it could help him to hear the words he was saying. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't think. I'm letting everyone down. Why do I always let them down?"

Stupid! David told himself. Think before you speak.. He took a deep breath, and reminded himself that he could do this, that Nick was relying on him, and that failure was never, ever an option. "You're not letting anyone down," he said slowly and clearly, easing himself off the table and taking a small step towards Nick's desk, "but you're not well. You need time to recover. Sleep too, I should think ( ... )

A/N: I've taken considerable liberties with the timescale and details of the original prompt, with the OP's consent. Or rather, I plotted most of it having completely forgotten the details of the original prompt and luckily for me the OP is a tolerant person.

"It's me," David said into the phone in a low voice quite some time later.

"You got him home safely?" Danny's voice said at the other end of the line. He still sounded worried, as well he might. David couldn't help but admit that a rather large part of his own mind was still on tenterhooks.

"I took him to my flat," David said. "At least the press won't know where that is."

"David, nobody knows where that is," Danny said. "Which I still think is a little over the top, by the way ( ... )

He hovered at Nick's shoulder, leaning on the kitchen stool he'd left by the side of the bed and watching the nightmares that seemed to wrack him. Shouldn't he be free from all that? he thought, and then wondered how he could be that naive ( ... )

Sorry, no coherent comment: stroked Nick's bare shoulder, the way he used to on nights when James had overdone it at the pub. killed me.

I love that DLaws is finding himself in a situation where he's the one who has to take care of someone else, who has to have Nick depend on him. I can't help but think James was to one to take care of David a lot more than the other way around and the fills we've had on the meme seem to go with that for the most part. I like this kind of role reversal.

Because of this fic, I'm also growing very fond of the thought of Nick/DLaws and that's saying a lot from a Clameron fan. You're doing a great job with this story and I'm already impatiently wanting the next update.

SO glad this fic has been updated. Complete love for this.
I love the way that you have got around Lawdie.
Nick clinging to David who continues to make a conference call, I adore it.

It was eleven o'clock at night when David's mobile phone rang, and he was startled to see the Prime Minister's name on the display ( ... )
