Idea: What if Neil never became a fox? What if Andrew and Neil met as kids and eventually and started dating before Andrew went to Palmetto? What if the foxes eventually meet Andrew's junkie?
Yelling, that's always going on when it comes to this broken group of kids calling themselves foxes.
Andrew doesn't like any of them.
Well, that's a bit of an exaggeration, his cousin and the twin of his he has to deal with, and Renee is okay though he never really has an opinion on her aside from being a sparring buddy.
There's only one person Andrew could -but would never admit- he can say he likes, and that's his junkie.
The last time they spoke Andrew was told he was going by Neil Josten, coincidently that was the kid him, Kevin and Wymack were going to millport to scout out to join the foxes, but the kid was gone before they ever got there.
Andrew had a suspicion that he wasn't running away far, Neil just didn't want to be on the same team as the famous Kevin Day, who just so happens to be the same Kevin from Abram's childhood.
He couldn't risk getting caught again.
When Neil's mother died he'd called Andrew in histaria before Andrew heard the all too familiar sounds of gunshots and someone calling Neil "Junior" most likely his father from what Abram told him about the man he resembled a little too closely, and the call disconnected.
He didn't hear from his junkie for a total of three months until he finally called, explaining he got caught by his father and was held captive, only two months ago he was saved by his uncle from his mother's side and forced to stay in England to heal.
The first time Andrew saw Neil in person again was a couple weeks back, he told his cousin, twin and Kevin to stay at Wyamck's for the weekend, never explained why and then he practically forced Abram to get to colombia to stay with him for the weekend.
One of the best weekends of the year if he says so himself.
Yet now, he's back to dealing with loud mouth college students who only know how to insult and degrade each other.
An obvious rift between the upper class men and what they call Andrew's group 'The Monsters' a fitting word for himself Andrew often thought, Neil heavily disagreed and always said 'if they keep calling you that I will have to fight them.' it never fails to heat up Andrew's ears to the point where he has to tell Neil to shut up when he smiles at Andrew even if he didn't say anything.
So here Andrew is, sitting on a locker room beach staring at his phone, he hadn't gotten a call or text from Abram today and that always causes the small amount of anxiety that he doesn't like to feel.
The locker room is too loud, the lights too bright and everything starts to get a bit fuzzy.
Andrew is familiar with this feeling but he didn't want anyone else to notice. He was too vulnerable then.
And it wasn't until the sudden silence in the room that Andrew assumed something was wrong and he started to reach for his knives before a familiar redhead came into focus.
Neil. Abram, his junkie, was a few feet away from him talking to the coach.
Why was he here? Is something wrong? I thought he didn't want anything to do with this team?
Andrew stood up, and that caused Neil to pause and look over, an overly bright smile taking over his face. It looked so out of place with the scars surrounding him, Andrew even saw a couple of others flinch from the off putting smile.
But Andrew wasn't worrying about the others, completely forgetting he was supposed to be this emotionless monster who didn't care for others.
Slowly, like a predator stalking its prey he started towards Neil, and that got the others going started protesting telling Andrew not to hurt him, even coach yelled.
"Minyard backoff!" but that didn't stop Andrew as he continued forward.
It had completely caught everyone in that locker room off guard when the scared man only smiled like he just saw his favourite thing in the world -to Neil that probably is Andrew- and he opened his arms like he expected a hug.
The others officially called this man crazy thinking that Andrew would hug him, no one could even get a finger on Andrew without a knife to the throat. So then why would this man be any different?.
He was.
Andrew practically threw himself on the mysterious man and the man didn't wrap his arms around Andrew until the other's heard a small "yes" come from Andrew, and that man was hugging back in an instant.
It was silent for a hot minute before the redhead finally looked up from Andrew to look at the others who were staring at them in utter shock, surprised that the man didn't have a knife in his gut.
"Apologies, I didn't mean to show up so suddenly." there was a hint of an english accent to the man's voice, the others didn't have time to think much about it before he was speaking again "my name is Neil, I would normally say it's a pleasure to meet you all but from what i've been told from Drew 'bout the lot of you I can't say it is"
The others were even more shocked when they heard what the closest to a slight laugh that Andrew could do, a fast paced breath and Andrew finally let go of the man now known as Neil and he looked up at him, not saying anything for a second before a fast punch to Neil's gut startled everyone.
Neil gave a strong 'oof' and doubled over holding his stomach, the others were about to start yelling at Andrew until laughter from Neil made their words die in their throats.
"Alright I deserved that one Drew" it was then that the others finally processed the name, or rather, the nickname that Neil called Andrew and the others finally thought that this Neil guy was definitely a goner.
But no, Andrew didn't pull any knives in fact his eyes seemed to soften while looking at Neil and he catches his breath from the punch.
It was a few seconds ago that the girls figured something was wrong and came into the boys locker room, witnessing what was going on and Dan finally had enough and started speaking.
"Monster, what the hell have you done now?" and it became clear that was definitely not the thing to say as Andrew seemed to tense up and Neil stopped laughing, he finally looked up and the glare he gave the others had them shivering "you'll make due to never call Drew that again."
Andrew rolled his eyes and reached to grab Neils shirt, saying after a moment "enough junkie. Let's go." and he started dragging Neil out, the others still too shocked to stop them until something they never thought they'd see in their lifetime happened.
Neil stopped Andrew before they could leave completely and made Andrew face him, asking "yes or no?" after Andrew stood to think and answered yes..
Neil.. kissed him.
Neil kissed Andrew.
Neil kissed Andrew and Andrew didn't shout or push him away.
No, Neil kissed Andrew and Andrew is kissing back.
When Andrew pulled away Neil was staring at him with a smile, looking at him with eyes like Andrew was the most precious thing to him, Andrew's only tell that he was affected by what just happened was the new tint of red to his ears.
"Shut up junkie." he said and once again began to drag Neil, Neil laughed a bit and responded before they got out of ear shot "I didn't say anything love". There was an audible 'oof' Andrew had probably wacked him again.
The others stood in silence for a while, before Allison finally broke it screaming "WHAT THE FUCK WAS THAT!?" and it took a moment but eventually Matt responded.
"I think.. The mons- I uh- Andrew.. Has a.. A boyfriend"
