Neil was in shock.
The entire stadium was still, watching the point board flicker and change: His team was now on seven points, the opposing team on six.
The opposing team. Andrew’s old team.
Neil slowly looked to where Andrew was standing in goal, leaning on his racket. Slowly, Neil watched him slide off one of his gloves, hook his fingers in the metal grating of his helmet to slide it off and shake out his hair to give Neil a barely-there smile, all the way from the opposite end of the court.
Andrew had just been the first goalkeeper in Exy to land a goal from his box on the other end of the court. Neil knew exactly why: He’d traded from his old team to Neil’s at the beginning of the season two months ago. This was out of spite.
A buzzer called for time-out: There was only five minutes left of the game, but officials burrowed their heads in debated on whether or not the goal would count. Neil’s team started shrieking in disbelief, jumping up and down in ecstasy.
“Neil, where the fuck are you – ?!”
Neil was running, racket clattering to the ground, helmet bouncing alongside it. Andrew didn’t even lift his chin to watch him sprint down the court: Neil almost didn’t slow quick enough but skidded to a stop in front of Andrew, reaching out a hand.
“Yes,” Neil panted. “Or no?”
“Yeah.” Andrew said, expression flat and unreadable but cheeks flushed and eyes triumphant.
The kiss was short and sweet, more of an affirmation than anything else, but was disrupted by the chaos that their team brought down upon them.
“Andrew Minyard, you bastard.” Their captain was grinning from ear to ear.
And that – Well, that was the end of the Josten-Minyard rivalry.
this is pure self indulgence
someone had that link and talked about andrew scoring from his box: The kiss was because treat yo self if you know what i mean 😀
