Cute andreil facts from Noraâs posts that everybody forgets about
They actually do hold hands
When Robin moves to their dorm (during Neilâs fourth, Andrewâs fifth year) Andrew relinquishes his loft and shares with Neil the entire year
Renee was the first one to catch on Andrewâs attraction to Neil, but Kevin was the first one to catch on Neilâs attraction to Andrew
After Aaron outs Andrew and Neilâs relationship to Betsy (during The Kingâs Men), Betsy sends Andrew a message that says ââIâm happy for youââ
Andrew punches their pro team coach when he makes Neil play despite his injuryÂ
They sit on each otherâs lapsÂ
Andrew is usually the big spoon
Andrew isnât actually the top, they switch (by the time Neil becomes the Foxesâ captain, they are comfortable either way)
They go on dates, mostly long drives to nowhere, but also long walks on the beach or even a table for two
They stock coffee in their house in case one of them wakes up in the middle of the night because of nightmares
They donât say âI love youâ because neither of them have ever heard anyone say these words directly to them, but there are times when Neil couldâve said them: during Aaronâs trial, when Betsy had a heart attack, during Nathan Wesninskiâs trial, when they finally got their own apartment, when their team beats Kevinâs, when the US Court wins the gold medal
Their âI love youâ is in âStayâ, âDonât goâ, âWelcome homeâ
Neil likes forehead kisses, and Andrew is definitely tall enough to give them
Their first time was stressful for both of them, not only for Neil (we like to paint Andrew as this very experienced dude, and forget that Neil is actually his first too, which is sad)
Andrew discusses his and Neilâs relationship with Renee
Andrew buys Neil a camera when he noticed how much Neil loved the photos in the lounge
Andrew destroys the hems of every single pair of pants he owns because they are too long
One day they both stop asking
One day Andrew will learn to trust Neil with all of himself
Andrew is better with kids than Neil
When itâs nearly time for Aaronâs trial, Neil asks Betsy to be there for Andrew and says that he needs a mother right now
Neil practises picking locks, so he handcuffs himself to a bed
when Andrew finds him, he makes fun of his miserable attempts and leaves him handcuffed to the bed, stating that he did it to himself and now has to deal with the consequencesÂ
The next day Neil handcuffs himself to Andrew, so he wonât leave him again
*So obvioulsy the statement ââeverybody forgets aboutââ is false, but I wanted to write down all of my favourites (even though Iâve probably forgotten about at least half of them)
This post also exists for writers who need some fanfic ideas, etc.
If you feel like adding anything I didnât include, please go ahead, let this post be even longer it already is
