    Summary

    Neil's excuse for all this mess was that he's not good at directions. He got lost easily and, one day after class, found himself at the door of a small, cozy café. Having a hot drink and just relaxing there sounded amazing, but things never go the way Neil plans them, of course.

    So, when he saw that the only available sit at the place was next to Andrew, who was known for hating Neil—and almost everyone, to be fair—he thought "fuck it, I'm going to bother the shit out of him", and so he did. For several days. Non-stop.

    Summary

    "Brother-in-law?" Patel piped up from the sofa. "Wait. You have a twin. And a brother-in-law? How many people are in this house? Is there a chart? I feel like I need a flowchart."

    Aaron brings his residents home for Christmas Eve dinner. Nicky brings the energy. Neil brings a butterfly knife. Andrew brings... Andrew. A story about mentorship, survival instincts, and the horrifying realization that Dr. Minyard is actually the normal one.

    Summary

    He would stick a knife in the throat of anyone who tried to make him admit it, but Andrew was actually a little concerned about Neil running this race. From what he can tell, this can go one of two ways. Option one: Neil would be reasonable and just survive the race. Run at a sensible pace, make it across the finish line alive, and keep his mouth shut the next time some asshole reporter starts harassing him. Option two: Neil, because he is Neil, would try way too hard to keep up with the people who actually put in a lot of time training for these things. He would pull a muscle or pass out on the course, and Andrew would have to drag his ass to the nearest hospital, which would really throw a wrench in Andrew’s weekend plans of doing absolutely nothing. Not even to mention the absolute hissy fit Kevin would throw if Neil were injured. If Andrew were a betting man, his money would go to option two.

    Wymack follows through on his threats, and Andrew is a protective asshole in love.

    “I don’t know how to break this to you, so… here,” Matt said, stepping aside to reveal a child.
    “Did you steal a kid?” Nicky asked in surprise, then crouched down. “Hey, little guy. I’m Nicky. What’s your name?”
    [...]
    “Name,” Andrew said curtly.
    “Nathaniel,” the boy replied, crossing his arms tighter.
    “Holy shit,” Nicky blurted, clapping a hand over his mouth.

    One day, Neil became a child, and Andrew is trying to solve this problem. Welcome.

    Summary

    The cake itself really wasn’t perfect, but the fact that Neil had done this for him, that he had gone out of his way for Andrew, that he had used the time Andrew was gone to try to bake something just for him, was. It settled somewhere in Andrew’s chest, warm and slow and unfamiliar. No one had ever done this for Andrew before. It was the first time anyone had looked at Andrew and thought he deserved something as ordinary and impossible as a birthday cake.

    Or

    In which Andrew celebrates his birthday, featuring a healthy dose of twinyards, domestic andreil, and Neil baking Andrew a birthday cake.

    Summary

    "Is this your fucking date spot?" Allison asks, the joy like water spilling from a damn, a cackle woven between syllables.

    "It's a Chili's," Neil deadpans.

    "Holy shit, it is. You guys were totally holding out on us."

    "Wonder why."

    The Foxes decide to eat at an off-campus restaurant. Andrew and Neil are already quite familiar with it.

    Summary

    Their towels are already spread on the sand, bags and shoes placed at the corners to keep them from blowing away. Neil is sitting with his knee pulled close to his chest, staring out at the water, seemingly fine, but Andrew knows better. He always does. Neil wouldn’t have even noticed anything was wrong, if Andrew didn't suddenly press his palm against the back of his neck.

    “Your mother is dead,” Andrew says, detached and even. “But you are alive.”

    Neil and Andrew take a needed trip away to the coastline. The soft sand and salty air stir up more memories than either of them hoped it would.

    Summary

    He pulled his jersey over his head and stared down at the blue piece of fabric. The colour is very close to Neil’s eyes. He thinks back about Neil in the crowd, clad in white and orange between the mass black and blue. 'Minyard' and '03' on the back instead of his new '28'.

    He should get Neil a souvenir.

    He looks to his left, to his right and to his left again, making sure nobody is looking at him while he quickly shoves the shirt into his bag. Maybe he’ll piss off an equipment manager, but it’ll be so worth it.

    or, Neil visits Andrew when he's playing pro and Neil has one more year at PSU

    Summary

    “What are love languages?” Andrew asked. The question felt stupid hanging out in the air like that, so he was quick to add, faking indifference: “I heard people talking about it.”

    It was clear that wasn't the question Bee was expecting when she asked if there was anything else he would like to talk about. Still, she gently put her notebook down and offered him her full attention. “Where did you hear that term?”

    -

    Or, three times Andrew tries to figure out what Neil's love languages are, and the one time he does something about it.

    It's all Aaron's fault.

    Really, it is.

    He threw away Andrew's ice cream, and left him with no other choice but to walk to the sketchy gas station in the middle of the night. No other choice.

    Maybe Andrew should send him a thank you card.

    OR

    Neil works at a gas station that isn't quite a gas station, and Andrew can't stop coming back for more.

    Summary

    Andrew glanced at the board and found his name at one of the pods of two rather than four (thank god), right next to the windows. Next to his name was ‘Neil Josten’, one Andrew didn’t recognize, but he had to be at least a sophomore to be in this class. Turning to find the right seats, Andrew found himself pausing as he walked, seeing the person he’d be sitting next to for the foreseeable future if Mr. Browning had his way.

    And shit, this was either a good thing or a bad thing, because Andrew is very, very gay, and Neil was good looking enough to become a distraction very quickly.
