here u go here is my anderperry week 2k21 day one content :) !! it's not a full on fic but i still think its cute pls enjoy<3
ok childhood friends. their moms are the ones that had been friends for years, and neither todd nor neil really remember how they met. all they know is that they always see each other around holidays and birthdays and stuff. maybe they hang out once or twice every summer cause their moms are hanging out and todd, youre not doing anything today, are you? wanna come along?
anyway in like the summer before 10th grade there's some party with a few other kids their age and they all go somewhere to be away from the adults, and they end up playing truth or dare. neil and todd are dared to kiss each other. both are like hm Hope this doesn't awaken anything in me. (it does). they can hardly look at each other the rest of the night. maybe they see each other once or twice again before winter break but its kinda weird now. not awful weird just ... okay so I'm definitely gay. and I'm pretty sure like you, specifically. and we've kissed. and you didn't ... seem to mind it, either? but both are too scared to talk about it and they, you know, hardly see each other for a while, so it's pretty easy to avoid and push to the back of their minds.
then the andersons (minus jeff, who's got his license by now and is off with his friends) are at the perrys house on new years eve, and i imagine it going one of two ways. one, they're inside, downstairs or in neil's room just hanging out and they don't even realize when its nearly midnight. two, they're outside on a porch or looking out an open window or something watching fireworks or whatever. stargazing. i don't know. and for some reason tonight things have been .. different. in a good way. like they've finally come to an unspoken mutual understanding or something.
at midnight one of them decides, fuck it, he looks so pretty right now, i wanna kiss him. so he does. and they kiss. and maybe make out for a while. and they're more giddy and less avoidant when its over, this time, cause it wasn't on a dare, and it wasn't around other people, and he kissed back. but a while later, maybe in a few minutes or hours or the next morning, they go their separate ways, and they don't see each other for months again. but you know that thing about how whoever you kiss (are with??) at midnight is who you'll spend the next year with. yeah. somehow todd starts getting good enough grades that he can go to welton his junior year. maybe him and neil see each other sometime in the eight months before then, but their pseudo-relationship is at a standstill. which is fine. because then todd goes to welton and his roommate is neil and u know the rest. they fall in love and stuff
thee end
