    Summary

    “Do tell him that we have enjoyed watching his team’s success in the American league, perhaps if he had joined Day’s team, he would have won the championship.”

    The translator’s lips twitched at the comment. “Petra wants you to know how much they have enjoyed watching your team’s success in the American leagues.”

    Andrew waits for the rest of the comment to follow. The translator seems set on editing, unfortunately. “Are they paying you well to play diplomat?”

    The comment is out before he can stop it. It seems to take the translator by surprise and his mouth twitches into a barely contained grin.

    “A certain amount of discretion is expected to keep international relations happy, yes.”

    Andrew is intrigued by his honesty. “Tell them that Day would pitch a fit if he knew they found time to watch another countries Exy team. If you have time to watch than you have time to practice, after all.”

    He translates perfectly with a smirk at being called out. Andrew watches him closely. If asked, he would say that this man posed a threat. In reality, he enjoyed the way he hadn’t backed down when being caught out.

    “Why am I here if you speak the language?” The translator asks in English.

    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.

    Summary

    Neil is Demi, but Andrew is Gay. It's a distinction Neil's never really paid attention to before, barely thought twice about at least in regards to himself. But after an incident at Eden's, and a specific comment from Andrew, Neil starts wondering if there are several things he hasn't noticed. It leads him on a downward spiral of self-doubt, depression, and his usual martyr-like tendencies that can only have one conclusion. He loves Andrew so he wants him to be happy- even if it's with someone else. So he'll let him go...but only if he asks.

    Summary

    Neil is a math nerd who, by a stroke of dumb luck, falls into a group of friends that are the closest thing to family he’s ever had. So, when he tells them about his new mysterious crush, he shouldn’t be surprised how immediately they come up with a plan to help win them over. One they insist that if Neil follows it, he’ll have them falling for him in no time. But things don’t always go to plan – or do they?

    Nicky wants to set him up with someone else. Matt and Jeremy are confused but supportive. Allison and Seth offer lewd suggestions, while Dan does her best to keep everyone in line. Jean and Renee know something, Aaron doesn’t really care, and Kevin just wants Neil to join the lacrosse team.

    But one thing’s for certain – whether Neil’s successful or not, everyone’s got money riding on this.

    Summary

    “How long have I known you, now?” Niall asked Harry, moving his barstool closer to the brunette. The blonde was two pints in and was nursing a third. Harry was still on his first and munching on chicken tenders.

    “Three days, six hours and—” Harry stopped to check the time on his phone then continued. “Thirty-five minutes.” He smiled, eyes crinkling.

    Niall chuckled and looked away briefly. “I don’t really get it,” he said.

    “What don’t you get?” asked Harry, tilting his head to watch Niall.

    “Well, you’ve been so kind and everything - given me a new me!” Niall said happily, moving in a little closer to the brunette. “I don’t know how to thank you.”

    Harry looked down at his beer sheepishly. “It is really nothing…”

    “No, hang on!” Niall said, putting his hand over Harry’s wrist and looking directly into his eyes. “Listen, when we met I was in a bad place - it was more than giving up on music and you knew that. I love my da more than anything in the world but my little room above the shop and the same view of the street outside...that was looking like my life forever. And that was only three days ago. Three days….so thank you.”

    “Alright, mate, I’m Niall.” He holds his hand out for Harry to shake. “You must be Zayn’s roommate. Barry, isn’t it?”
    “Harry.” He tries not to roll his eyes as he shakes Niall’s hand.
    “Ah, sorry man. Nice to meet you though,” he grins, not really looking apologetic at all, Harry thinks.

    Harry and Zayn are roommates. Zayn's friend Niall has a habit of visiting when Zayn's not around.

    Summary

    Harry swam around the castle, smile stuck to his lips. It was like everything had become so much more vibrant, brighter than ever. The many coral that scattered his home more detailed, Harry thought. It seemed like everything beautiful screamed Niall's name, all the sea flowers, some matching the glorious blue of his eyes. Harry could feel his heart pattering harder at the remembrance of his hand on Niall's breathtaking face, how soft it was in his hands, how lovely the pattern of freckles that laced his skin so effortlessly. Harry was so taken with the human, it's true.
