Trust Fall

by SpangleBangle

Life goes on after the Foxes win the championship, and for Andrew and Neil it's uncharted territory with only each other for guides. Maybe it's time to put away some of those hard edges, and learn how to touch more softly, and speak more honestly. And if they falter, they have their family to help them get back on their feet.

“And as they watched the movie, surrounded by their family, Neil thought that – yeah. It felt pretty good to be Neil Josten.

He couldn’t wait to do it all again tomorrow.”

Really really enjoyed this fic, it was really nice to see a post-canon version of Neil and Andrew with writing that felt very realistic to who they are. I really liked seeing the journey of consent and overall trust build between them two, and I'm glad I got to read it. I will have to admit, though. This somehow made me hate Aaron and Katelyn even more than I originally did, and I didn't even think that was possible. Katelyn was just mad annoying with her constant "so proud of you sweetheart!" and constant chatter about meaningless things like how she believes Aaron to be a good person (which is bull) and an insane amount of use of the nickname sweetheart. Aaron is a homophobic piece of trash that didn't believe Andrew would keep to his promises, so even with the ending of him 'learning to be a better person' I still think of him as horrible. I hated how he was being applauded at the court for standing up like that was the bare fucking minimum.

Anyways, loved seeing my precious babies go further into their relationship, hope I can find more similar to this one

This is the most heartwarming thing i’ve ever read. The twins’s therapy session are so so good, everything Bee said and the way she treat all the issues are just supreme.

I must add that the way Neil and Andrew respect each other boundaries and understand each other make me sob, please someone protect them.

yeah this is the andrew i know and love, and neil&andrew are eternally cute together forever. i still hate aaron and his inner monologue, he can't be redeemed for me. neil&allison friendship was exactly how i would react to him as well, calling him a baby deer is so real. also love neil&renee friendship and allison&renee sapphic undertones
