Summary
He was walking in a pipe dream. When their hands were not stuffed in their pockets but swaying by their sides, they grazed—knuckle against knuckle, the tip of their fingers, touch as light as a feather. It coursed through Andrew’s veins and the world silenced in a heartbeat, as though sinking to the bottom of a pool, every detail reverberating like dancing light: Neil’s hands swaying by his side as he walked, their feet rising and falling in a rhythm, the motion repetitive yet pushing on. His tense shoulders, his pulse pounding in his ears. His fingers twitched every now and then, as though yearning.
Andrew did not yearn.
Neil started collecting enamel pins. Andrew didn't care, because why would he?

Summary
“Aaron, what the fuck - you just killed a man! A cute man!”
“I’m fine,” Neil snarled, “just get my bag.”
“Oh god,” Nicky cried, “this is a disaster, we’re murderers.”
“I’m fine,” Neil said, again.
“You heard him, Nicky, he’s fine,” Aaron clipped.
Neil Josten was already living in his own personal dystopia when kids started dropping dead en masse and the rest of the world caught on. 98% of the kids under fourteen died, and the rest were deemed too dangerous for civil society. Neil was one of the ones that never got sick. Instead, he started falling into the mind of anyone he touched. It was getting harder for Neil to claw his way back out.
Death had to be better than living as an Orange.

Summary
Andrew can't think when he's kissing Neil Josten, starting striker for the Palmetto State Foxes. The bone-deep apathy he's spent the past 23 odd years assembling shatters into nothing; a blanket of stark white static that covers his brain. Without it, Andrew's weak and vulnerable, but he's free. It just so happens that the very thing causing this conundrum is also the reason for his continued willingness to metabolize oxygen into carbon dioxide. To breathe. To live. And to heal.
or,
Neil makes Andrew quiet in the same way the stars do. Neil is grotty and wears socks in bed during morning make-out sessions. And both of them are full of love and yearning for the other.

Summary
What if Nathaniel Wesninski had been raised a Raven, and his mother only ran away with him when he was fifteen ? What if his father caught them four years later, and Stuart Hatford had rescued him too late to save his right leg ?
What if Kevin Day had held his end of the deal, and Andrew Minyard kept playing Exy after graduation ? What if Andrew had met Abram Hatford in a pub during his second year as a professional Exy player ?
This is a vague attempt to answer at least the last question.

Summary
Neil Josten passes out after playing too hard during an Exy game. Who comes to his aid!?
(Specifically The King’s Men Chapter 5 after they won the game and Neil talked to the press. Neil pushed Kevin and had that argument in French. This Fanfiction starts from there. Keep in mind that I just finished reading that part and that part only so there may some inconsistencies with what happens in the next chapter of the book. Like the tattoo, I didn’t know whether Neil covered it up again or not.)

Summary
Andrew realises he’s faced with two choices: hold onto this or let it go forever.
And he hates that.
Almost as much as he hates Neil.
He watches as Neil turns away, walks up the length of the room once, stops, looks back. “It’s ok,” he says, his voice drained of any emotion, face set. Sure. Resigned. “You always said this was nothing.”
Andrew nods. Remembers there’s a cigarette dangling between his fingers, so brings it back up to his lips, holds it there, doesn’t even bother breathing in.
“Ok,” Neil says again, and leaves the room.

Summary
Neil doesn’t call. He doesn’t text. It’s been an hour. Neil’s done this before. He doesn’t like to text until he’s gone to bed, some rule about his mom not allowing phones at the dinner table or when he’s doing his homework. Even though this is not unusual behaviour, Andrew can’t just hop on the bus and go home. Something doesn’t feel right.
His phone dings, alerting him that he has a text and he flips it open, hardly able to breathe.
Neil: Thank you. You were amazing.
Andrew has a perfect afternoon and spends years trying to get back there.

Summary
Andrew has heard all the rumors about Neil Josten, extrapolations that the students make from the morsels of information they could pick out ever since he moved here in the middle of the academic year. Some say that he was sold to the mafia at a young age; others insist that he is the son of a crime lord from the east coast.
One other ridiculous thing about Neil is that girls find his enigmatic aura and brooding facade irresistible, but most of the boys find the whole thing aggravating, like they think that Neil is somehow limiting their own chances of fishing girls and getting laid. The fact that a mousy and unremarkable thing like Neil opened his mouth long enough to bluntly reject the advances of a senior cheerleader has sparked a mini storm in their little high school.
Andrew deems it all banal.
(or: a high school AU where nobody has to worry about an impending mafia war)
