Summary
But, it’s infuriating, this cold shoulder, this new game that they have. Communication was not their strong suit, not when it comes to them and it's now biting them on their ass as Neil is sitting wondering what is happening. Just tell me it’s the nightmares, he finds himself thinking over the last 9 days, Let me help you.
Alas, it is Andrew and Andrew will never ask for help.
Where Andrew creates distance to confront an issue and Neil is left in the dark.

Summary
"What do you want?" Neil asks softly. Do you want me here? Should I go?
Andrew makes a sweeping gesture with his hands towards Neil, not a 'go away,' but a 'scoot over.' Instead of sliding backward like the motion suggests, Neil goes forward, leaving the side of the bed against the wall open for Andrew. It earns him another look, which Neil pretends not to see as he fluffs his half of the pillow, laying flat on his back. Then Andrew deftly climbs over him, momentarily filling his entire world with soft black cloth, blond hair, cigarettes, Andrew-- and then Andrew is settling in the space between Neil and the wall, and Neil is left staring at the slats of his own bed above his head.
Neil is very awake.
------
This picks up right after the books ended, a short story of how I think the aftermath of the championship game, Riko, and all that jazz would've gone. It is mostly just Neil being extremely sleepy. And having a lot of Thoughts. Mostly about Andrew. More will be added in the series later!

Summary
He wasn’t getting up.
Neil’s teammates were shaking his shoulder and pulling off his helmet. Exposed to the camera, Neil’s skin was waxy and pale. With his eyes shut and his body limp, he looked painfully young.
The medics forced the players away and were taking his pulse.
He wasn’t getting up.
Andrew’s blood turned to ice as memories of Neil, pale, unconscious, and bandaged in a hospital bed, came flooding into his mind.

Summary
It's as simple as this: people like Andrew, destructive and joyless, don't get a happy ending.
If only Neil Josten had stayed a dream.
(The King's Men by Nora Sakavic but from Andrew's point of view instead of Neil's --using the novel and Nora's extra tumblr content to try and be as accurate (hopefully) as possible)
