■ favourite friendships (2/7): Neil + the Monsters
Better than that bright future was what he already had: a court that would always be home, a family who’d never give up on him, and Andrew, who for once hadn’t wasted their time denying that this thing between them might actually mean something to both of them.
The Foxhole Court: Andreil
“The last time we spoke you were afraid Riko would notice you. Either you lied to me or you changed your mind. I do hope it’s the latter, because I hate being lied to.” “I didn’t change my mind,” Neil said, “but I didn’t have a choice.” “There’s always a choice.”

“I am a born-again, Neil. Andrew is not interested in my faith; he is interested in the person I was before. He and I have more in common than you think. That is why I make you uncomfortable, isn’t it?”
The short carpet was rough against Neil’s knuckles where Andrew had pinned his hand over his head. Neil couldn’t complain when Andrew was an unyielding weight on top of him…
“Stay,” Andrew said, and leaned down to kiss him.

All that mattered was this game: the racquet in his hands, the Ravens’ goal, and the clock counting down seconds to serve overhead. He wasn’t Neil right now. He wasn’t anything or anyone but a Fox, and he had a game to play.
Andrew was the Foxes’ freshman goalkeeper and their deadliest investment. Most of the Foxes were self-destructive, whereas Andrew seemed keen on collateral damage.
ENDLESS LIST OF MY FAVORITE CREATIVE WORKS: ALL FOR THE GAME
The Palmetto State University Foxes were a team of talented rejects and junkies because Wymack only recruited athletes from broken homes. His decision to turn the Foxhole Court into a halfway house of sorts was nice in theory, but it meant his players were fractured isolationists who couldn’t get along long enough to get through a game.
“I’m self-destructive, not stupid.”

Neil had forgotten what it was like to be touched without malicious intent. He’d forgotten what body heat felt like. Everything about Andrew was hot, from the hands holding him down to the mouth steadily taking Neil apart. Neil finally understood why his mother had thought this was so dangerous. This was distraction and indiscretion, avoidance and denial. It was letting his guard down, letting someone in, and taking comfort in something he shouldn’t have and couldn’t keep.
