    Summary

    "I'm not a hallucination."

    The warmth of Neil supported that. So Andrew said the next most reasonable thing, "You're a pipe dream." An awful fantasy Andrew dreamed up through all the stupid misery in his life. He didn’t want to believe in the reality of him. Not when he was beautiful and close, trying to make Andrew believe that he was worth something.

    Summary

    "What if we left right now?"

    Andrew looks over at Neil. He's tying knots in the strings.

    Andrew doesn't need to ask him to elaborate --he knows Neil means the road trip. What if it started now? It would be stupid to leave now. No one would know.

    Andrew pictures going back to Abby's, locking and locking the front door, going into the room with the squeaky fan, alone; waking up to the wrong sunlight.

    Or he could leave right now in the middle of the night, driving on an open road, no sunlight. With Neil.

    It feels more right than it should.

     

    *This is Andrew's POV of what happens after the third book ends/a road trip with Neil. It's part 3 of the series, but you don't need to read the first parts to get it, I promise it's fluffier than it sounds, I just suck at these things*

    Summary

    Everything is finally over --now the Foxes want to celebrate. In true Fox fashion, it goes terribly wrong.

    *This is part-two of the series, but you don't have to read part-one to understand --this can be a stand-alone*

    Summary

    "What do you want?" Neil asks softly. Do you want me here? Should I go?

    Andrew makes a sweeping gesture with his hands towards Neil, not a 'go away,' but a 'scoot over.' Instead of sliding backward like the motion suggests, Neil goes forward, leaving the side of the bed against the wall open for Andrew. It earns him another look, which Neil pretends not to see as he fluffs his half of the pillow, laying flat on his back. Then Andrew deftly climbs over him, momentarily filling his entire world with soft black cloth, blond hair, cigarettes, Andrew-- and then Andrew is settling in the space between Neil and the wall, and Neil is left staring at the slats of his own bed above his head.

    Neil is very awake.

    ------

    This picks up right after the books ended, a short story of how I think the aftermath of the championship game, Riko, and all that jazz would've gone. It is mostly just Neil being extremely sleepy. And having a lot of Thoughts. Mostly about Andrew. More will be added in the series later!
