    Summary

    “I have some questions.”

    “What makes you think I want to answer them?” Andrew snaps. He lights another cigarette.

    “I’ll tell you what you want to know,” Neil says. “I know you’re curious.” His hand brushes against the burn mark on his cheekbone.

    Andrew thinks for a moment. “Fine. Make it quick.”

    “You don’t age, right?” Andrew nods. Neil affects an innocent voice and asks, “How long have you been thirteen?”

    “I’ll drain you fucking dry, Josten,” Andrew growls, flicking his cigarette butt off the roof.

    **

    Andrew is a creature of the night. Neil is too nosy for his own good and nowhere near as bothered as he should be about the whole 'vampire' thing. Yes, it's a Twilight AU.

    Summary

    Wymack’s voice trails off, words stuttering to an abrupt stop. All heads turn, slowly following the path of Wymack’s gaze.

    Andrew spots him almost immediately - hair as black as night, curls gentle and full atop his head. He’s got a bruise the size of a baseball around his eye, freckles spattered out around it like an explosion of stardust. His eyes are the colour of the sky, cresting with storm clouds.

    His hands are in his pockets as he walks by, fisted around something. He doesn’t look at any of them as he passes, eyes downcast.

    Andrew’s never seen him before.

    “What the hell happened to your face, Neil?” Wymack shouts, voice startling in the aftermath of silence. Neil doesn’t stop, plundering by the team and their coach without a second-glance.

    __

    In which Wymack adopts Neil at the age of 13, after the world has already chewed him up and spit him back out a few times over.

    The Foxes are still the Foxes, and Neil and Andrew are still destined to find each other.

    Summary

    Neil works three low paying, dead-end jobs and makes just enough money to afford a room to sleep in and to keep himself from starving. He has no prospects, no hope, no future. That all changes when a chance encounter results in a job offer that he can't ignore.

    The job? Pretending to be professional exy player Andrew Minyard's boyfriend.

    Summary

    “Have you considered the possibility that Neil has chosen you, but believes you have not chosen him?” Renee says. "Have you ever explicitly told him what you want?”

    “Neil knows what I want,” Andrew snaps. This is not Andrew’s fault.

    “How do you know?”

    Because Neil always knows. He is as fluent in Andrew’s micro-expressions as he is in German and French. He knows which head tilts mean “go on” and which ones mean “shut up.” Without ever asking, he learned what it meant to see Andrew wearing double layers of long sleeves, or taking multiple showers in a day, and learned to hand Andrew the car keys.

    That has always been the most terrifying thing about Neil — his patience to wait, watch, listen, learn. The prospect that if Neil were given enough time, there would be no part of Andrew that was just Andrew’s anymore.

    “He has to know,” Andrew says.

    “Does he?” Renee says. “Have you ever known Neil to assume that he is wanted?”

    Five times Neil tells someone that he and Andrew aren’t dating, and one time Andrew uses his words to set the record straight.
