he pressed a careful hand to his cheek as if that would somehow subdue his desire to throw the hanger of the suit away . but when he opened his eyes andrew was still waggling it in front of him before ultimately shoving it against his chest . ❝ the dead cowboy wasn’t bad enough , last year . what’s the point of this again ? ❞ free drinks at eden’s , he knew , but felt compelled to ask either way . as if trying his luck on some sliver of hopeless hope that they would give a more mature reason than that .

“ don’t ask stupid questions, “ he said simply, dropping the clothes from his hand knowing for sure that neil wouldn’t let them fall before he turned to face the rack of costumes again. there were others that would suit neil alright, but there was something about the zombie outfit that held andrew’s curiosity. maybe it was the chance to dress him in ragged clothes without a fear of drawing people’s attention to his multiple scars, or maybe it was simply a desire to let go of all responsibilities for a night to drink and see neil take himself less seriously. “ i’ll take this one, “ he said in the end, selecting another set of ragged drapes and clothes. “ mummy. “

❝ THIS IS RIDICULOUS . ❞ people were staring , now , but that didn’t stop either of the monsters from lounging through the racks left and right . andrew stopped short of him and held a zombie costume to neil’s chest . ❝ you’re twenty . this is halloween . for kids . ❞ / @nintyfour .

“ sounds about perfect for you, then. look, you even fit in the children’s costumes. “ despite what they’d gone through in the last couple of months, the parties at eden’s twilight still held enough appeal for andrew to bother with atrezzo. he glanced at neil, holding the ragged clothes in front of him, and nodded with finality. “ you’re wearing this one. “

AND so he does , lips pursed tight and eyes trained on andrew as he stoops to recover his racquet before taking his place back in front of the other .

andrew hates working with new recruits. it’s the kind of boring job that only a fool like neil would enjoy, and he can think of a million other things he’d rather be doing right now, but the determined look in the boy’s eyes and neil’s threat to play some horrid pop album on repeat in their car if he doesn’t help out light a spark of interest in him. he shrugs, swings his racquet, and shoots directly at his face. “ oops. “

“ it’s a wonder how anyone still thinks you’re worth any sort of admiration. “ he said, finally passing kevin the bottle of whiskey he’d been denying him. / @courtqueen

“ somedays you’re more abram than neil. “ his voice rang from the edge of the couch, where he watched neil circle the coffee table where his phone sat like a tiger in a cage. he had that coldness in his eyes that indicated his mind was somewhere else, and andrew, heels clicking against the couch with every swing of his legs, observed him with an indifferent stare. / @pipesdream

❝ LOOK AT YOU LIKE WHAT ? ❞ he understood what was being asked of him but he didn’t think to carry through with listening ; his features did not , even for a second , mirror the frustrated pull of andrew’s frown or the agitated crease of brows as smoke curled in thick plumes around them . he was chilly eyed and warm at heart , his fingers finding the loop of jeans and just the bare inch of skin underneath shirt . he lowered his cigarette first , exhaling to the side and breathing in . ❝ you know , it’s always yes with you . ❞ and you will say , only when it isn’t . he stole the brief pause and spoke before andrew could . ❝ yes . ❞ by then his collar was in a choke hold and their lips far too close for him to kiss the cigarette again . it was this and smoke and metal - everything that made up andrew .

the roughness of the kiss and the taste of blood in his mouth grounded him and reminded him where he was. this was his life now, him and neil and this. there was no more foster care, no more family, no more bullshit escaping the grasp of his hands. it was only this, and it was fine. cigarette forgotten, he chased neil’s lips with his own, holding his shirt so tightly he was sure he’d leave a mark neil would never complain about. they weren’t made for softness, there was no questioning that. andrew’s mouth opened over neil’s throat when they parted to breathe, a firm latch of his teeth to assure a bruise right above the tug of the collar. “ it’s yes until it’s no, “ he said finally, as he always said when neil gave him his bullshit response. “ yes. “

he could feel neil’s gaze burning into the side of his face as he settled on their bed facing the ceiling. it still felt strange on his tongue to call this corner their own; their bed, their room, their home. so many things had changed in two years it felt like a waste of time to try and understand them all. instead, he reached over neil and scooped his book from the bedside table. “ move, “ he said in a quiet whisper, not really ushering neil away but inviting him to lay comfortably.they’d fallen into this habit lately. they’d lay down, neil would close his eyes curled up inches from him and they’d read or chat or simply enjoy the silence together, and today was no different. andrew spared him a short glance, sighed, and started reading out loud, and not for a second did he allow himself to think that this was what home should feel like.

( ❤ - kissing them + Δ - playing with their hair . )

andrew didn’t crave company or touch from anybody anymore. he had once, but that had since been numbed by years of longing met with broken bones and disenchantment. dreams didn’t come true. life didn’t owe you shit. and yet he responded to the tentative press to his pulse by relaxing his fist and welcoming the touch of neil’s hand on his own. he exhaled a dense cloud of smoke that hid his brown eyes for a second and dissipated to reveal neil staring softly back at him. it wasn’t the kind of softness that meant weakness, but the cryptic kind that tore him down and left him bare. the kind that had drawn andrew’s attention the first day and had captivated him since. he closed his eyes when neil’s felt like too much and passed the cigarette from his own lips to his. the press of neil’s mouth to his shoulder was expected. it was welcomed when it ghosted up to his collarbone, and was met with a full body shudder when it was pressed to his neck. he groaned, shifted, looked up and caught his lips in another kiss. “ needy, “ he said, without scorn, and tilted his chin up for another.

❝ ANDREW . ❞ his voice came tender , both a cautious experiment and thick endearment . it wasn’t unusual for andrew to be skeptical , even in the face of his own cousins . regardless , his frown stooped too low even for today , the crease of his brow stiff and shoulders jammed , seething venom after venom . his fingers floated forth , clasping the boy’s finger tips and attempting to lull his attention towards him . ❝ look at me . ❞ he remembered the first time he had asked such a thing . it was dark and the night stretched cold and thin , the flock of raven fans had trashed andrew’s car , and they had not spared allison or matt either . allison’s back handed slap across aaron’s cheek had prompted andrew to put her in a cruel hold , and it was until neil had asked - look at me - that andrew had let go , warmth swelling briefly in his stare . he held the memory like a heart in his chest . a pause , before he tightened his hold on fingers .

andrew hated weakness. he hated how it made him vulnerable, how it reminded him of all he hadn’t been when he had needed so desperately to be. it made him powerless and that was something he had sworn he wouldn’t allow himself anymore. and yet three words from neil were enough to disarm him. he didn’t look up because he needed to, he did because it was safe. neil was safe. blue eyes didn’t seem so cold anymore now that they were his. he didn’t move further, but they were already close enough that, with his chin tilted up, the smoke from neil’s cigarette poured from his lips and curled between them in a lethargic spiral. “ don’t look at me like that, “ he spoke quietly, his voice detached from his racing mind, before he grabbed the front of neil’s shirt and pulled him closer. he frowned, took a long drag and swallowed it before speaking. “ yes or no. “
