THE FUCKING EPILOGUE THIS IS MY FAV BOOK. still as good as it was a year ago.

alright third time reading it to prepare myself for tsc and the excitement and joy i still get when reading about the foxes? absolutely insane i love them all so much they’re so real to me. eventually, I do need to give this book a  structured review, but my thoughts are always in such shambles after finishing it.

  A year ago Neil had been scared nobody, hating himself for signing the Foxes’ contract and counting down days until he moved in with Wymack. Tonight he was the starting striker for the first ranked team in the NCAA. In two years, he’d be captain, and then for years, he graduate from Palmetto State. Neil would find a professional team first and then fight tooth and nail to make the cut for court. Neil could already imagine the weight of an Olympic medal around his neck. He didn’t even care what the colour was so long  as it was his.

better than that bright future was what he already had. a court that would always be home, a family who would never give up on him, and Andrew, who for once didnt wasted their time denying that this thing between them might actually mean something to both of them. Neil hadn’t even noticed the silence at first, too distracted by his dissing thoughts. Now he couldn’t help but smile and pull Andrew in. This was everything he wanted, everything he needed, and Neil was never letting go.
