the foxes in pastel ยป andrew and aaron minyard

the strangled noise aaron made was his best attempt at andrewโ€™s name. it was barely intelligible but it was enough.

andrew, whoโ€™d barely acknowledged aaronโ€™s existence in the entire time neil had known them, looked immediately to his brother. andrew snaked a hand out from under the sheet and curled his fingers in a demand. aaron clambered onto the bed and reached for andrew.

โ€œandrew,โ€ aaron said, desperate and frightened. he held onto andrew like he thought andrew would disappear if he let go.
