    Summary

    Neil had bandages on both cheeks. Andrew removed them one by one, as gently as possible so as not to hurt him further. The tattoo was gone, giving way to burned flesh. Two new knife scars arrived in Neil's collection. Other than that, he looked fine. Andrew hated having thought of that. Neil was not okay. He was hurt. He was…

    Andrew's eyes dropped to his stomach. Neil noticed, of course. He placed a hand on his stomach before making Andrew look at him. “I'm okay. We're okay.”

    or, where neil was pregnant when he were kidnapped.

    Summary

    It's as simple as this: people like Andrew, destructive and joyless, don't get a happy ending.

    If only Neil Josten had stayed a dream.

     

    (The King's Men by Nora Sakavic but from Andrew's point of view instead of Neil's --using the novel and Nora's extra tumblr content to try and be as accurate (hopefully) as possible)

    Summary

    “Andrew,” Kevin pants, his eyes wide, chest heaving. “I found us a striker. Oh my god. I found him.”
    “Kevin, don’t-” Aaron yells from the hallway. Kevin slams the door shut, cutting him off.
    The desperation in Aaron’s voice catches Andrew’s attention.
    “Who is it?” Andrew asks, shocking himself with his own interest.
    “Neil Josten."

    Andrew thinks of Neil Josten’s abomination of an essay and resists the urge to hit something.
    “Neil Josten barely knows how to spell his own name,” Andrew drawls.

     

    In which the Foxes need a striker, and Neil somehow fits Kevin's criteria.
