When There’s Nowhere Else To Run, Is There Room For One More? by P234age

Summary
“It’s a little difficult to think clearly with a knife pressed to his jugular, but Neil manages to wonder if he should’ve let the FBI send him to jail instead of here.
It makes sense, unfortunately, that after finding Neil bruised, burnt, and bleeding out on the cold cement floor of his father’s basement, Special Agent Todd Browning might have had some concerns for Neil’s health.
Neil just didn’t expect that concern to include his mental health, too.
Browning had offered Neil a choice that day - after listing out, like, fifty reasons why he thought Neil might benefit from some therapy.
Life in prison or a sixty day stay in a psych ward, followed by freedom.
Neil thought the answer was obvious, but his new roommate still hasn’t removed his blade from Neil’s throat - which Neil is now realizing isn’t actually a knife, but a razor blade taped to the butt of a toothbrush - so he’s rethinking that answer a bit.”
OR
The one where Neil and Andrew meet in Easthaven.

Summary
Andrew did not do crushes, ever. He’d thought that his childhood had killed the possibility of ever harboring true romantic feelings for anyone; love did not exist the way that Andrew needed it to, so he would never give it the space to grow in his life.
He felt almost sick at the irony of developing his first crush on a homeless runaway criminal that he’d met three times and who was likely to die at any moment. He would laugh if he wasn’t so afraid that he was going to destroy himself.
Based on the song You and I by Lady Gaga. Because it is about running thousands of miles, broken and bleeding, to get back to the person that you love.

Summary
"Who choked you out?"
"Going for the throat, are you?"
"I’m not a kind person."
"My husband. My husband choked me out."
"The classic. I was a foster kid. Had plenty of adults beat on me for something as stupid as breathing too loud."
"It’s always the stupidest reasons."
"Does he-"
"No. I would skin him alive if ever dared to put his hands on my daughter."
"I have Luna's black roses."
"Oh yeah? She'll be happy when she sees them. She's at a friend's house right now."
"Then I'll start planting."
"Yeah. Could you- could you stay here for a moment? I like the silence but I don't want to be alone."
"Okay."

Or Trans Neil was in fact sold to the mafia and ended up marrying Riko and ends up hiring Andrew as a gardener and the author still can't write a summary to save their life
