Neil remained behind for a few seconds longer to stare at their backs. "Ready for this?" he asked, and he went on ahead. Only Nicky stayed behind long enough to smile at Neil. Kevin was a half-step behind him, and Aaron didn't even look at Neil on his way by. Andrew shoved past him, bumping him from shoulder to hip, and headed for the door. As soon as they'd parted enough Andrew gave Neil a small push. "I don't need to be persuasive," Andrew said, putting a hand to Neil's chest as the elevator slowed to a stop. "You need to rethink your persuasion techniques. Then we'll throw you a welcome party you won't forget." We'll wait until everyone's here and Abby has too many other Foxes to worry about. Can't have that, can we? Kevin would cry. Abby threatened to revoke our stadium rights for the summer if we break you sooner than that. "Like this," Andrew clarified, gesturing between their faces. "It will be a while before we see each other again." "How nice to meet you, Neil," Andrew drawled.
