There's like zero NeilxMax(Nax?) Stories out there, so here's one anyways! Max is about seventeen and Neil is eighteen. Basically the boys remain friends after Camp Campbell and start a relationship. This is basically what happened when Neil finally decided to tell his dad.

Neil stared at the screen with bored eyes, the irritated grunts coming from the latter only adding to his petty annoyance. The two boys were sprawled out comfortably on the brunet's larger-than-average bed, videogame controllers in hand. Max sat in between the elder's legs – he was previously on his lap, but had shuffled off during a particularly important boss battle – leaning forwards with his legs crossed. Neil, who had exited the game after growing extremely frustrated, had one hand placed on the raven's leg as his thumb occasionally grazed his inner thigh; not to be suggestive in anyway, just because Max was very fond of his boyfriend's affection.

Knockout!

Max smirked proudly and he leant backwards against the taller male, his head resting against his collar bone as he stared up at him. "You look so bored."

"I wonder why." Neil muttered, sarcasm dripping from his words like venom. "Remind me never to let you bring your games round again." He offered a dry chuckled. Max frowned.

"Don't say that~ Just because you don't have anything good to play-"

"I have you, Max. Quit being a tease already." He quickly adjusted their positions so Max was once again on his lap with his legs around his waist, a growing blush staining his cheeks uncontrollably. The brunet grinned at him and his rare expression, the one that he only got to see. Neil always made sure to treasure each moment like this more than the last, and he hoped Max did too.

The couple sat in silence for what seemed like forever, the air becoming increasingly humid the longer they refused to move. Max narrowed his brows in mild distress as he bit his lip, now honestly not liking the sudden heat rush. Neil couldn't help but stare as the raven slowly looked into his eyes, the accidental vibe his was giving off triggering his hormones.

Max suddenly shot a glare at Neil.

Neil smirked innocently in return, the soft gasp the younger let out not helping their situation. Max paused, taking a quick glance downwards, before casting his attention to the bedroom door. It was shut, but wasn't locked.

Max swallowed thickly. "Is your dad home?"

Neil, now fully aware do the short boy's intentions, licked his lips. "I don't know." He flickered his gaze over his smaller boyfriend. "A-Are you sure you wanna… y'know?"

The raven nodded, despite the flash of uncertainty that appeared in his eyes.

"I don't look sure. We don't have to—"

Before he could finish, however, Max pulled him into a less-than-discrete kiss, small arms wrapping themselves around his neck as Neil held tightly onto his hips. The two finally separated with swollen lips, both panting for air as they catch their breath. "Th-That was unexpected."

Offering a weak smile, Max's blush darkened. "Sorry… I dunno what-what came over me."

"If we're gonna continued this… we should really lock that door." Neil pursed his lips as he reluctantly moved himself from under Max and over to the door, pausing momentarily. His brow furrowed as he strolled over to the radiator and carefully placed his hand against it, before sharply retracting. He inhaled and exhaled in irritation as he turned to face the patient boy sat on his bed. "No wonder it got so fucking hot… that means that Dad's home. He doesn't let me mess with the house cuz he thinks I'll blow it all up."

Max pouted. "What time does he usually get home?"

"Around sevenish. I mean, it's coming up for eight thirty-"

"So he's downstairs."

"Max, you've been to my house shit tonnes of times. Why are you questioning everything?"

"You have a boner-"

"NEIL? COME DOWNSTAIRS FOR SOME TEA!"

"Shit." Neil growled as he glanced down at his problem, relieved to see that it had calmed down. Max slowly got up from the bed and checked himself over, before turned to look up at his boyfriend.

"You still haven't told him, have you?"

"Hell no. It's always about girls, not guys. He knows you're my friend…"

"Well my parents took it pretty well, if you ask me. I mean it was only a month ago I told them and still remember it. It'll stick with me forever, just like today. Because today we're gonna tell him."

Carl grinned as he watched his son squirm in his seat, this 'important chat' that he'd wanted clearly proving a challenge. He sipped his coffee expectantly, taking note of Max's smug, yet assuring manner.

"Spit it out then!" He pushed for what seemed like the one-hundredth time.

Neil finally opened his mouth to speak, his stare either on Max of the floor. "So, y-you know about how I said I was single-"

"You have a girlfriend?!" Carl exclaimed proudly.

The boy laughed hastily as he avoided his father's eyes. "Ha, ha… well, you see, about that…"

"You don't have a girlfriend? You're single?-"

"Oh! No! I'm taken, dad, I'm not single!"

The man shot his son a confused glance, exchanging looks with Max. "So you do have a girlfrie—"

"Boyfriend! Dad, I have a boyfriend!"

Silence.

The raven watched with mixed emotions at his boyfriend. He could see the sweat appearing on his forehead as he subconsciously linked their fingers, his entire hand practically shaking. "I have a boyfriend. A-And it's Max."

Carl slowly met the short teen's stare, before noticing the hand-holding. He swallowed. "So you're gay?"

"Y-Yeah…"

"Good."

Neil looked up with teary eyes. "What?"

"You two are clearly very fond of each other. I think it's great that you two are together, if I'm being honest." He spoke genuinely, smiling all the while. "Good work, son. Let's hope he's a keeper!" And with that Carl stood up from the dining table, leaving the two boys blushing like mad.

"Did he just say I'm a keeper?" Max repeated, covering his face with his hands in embarrassment.

Neil, now feeling an immense sense of relief, pulled the raven into a hug. "I'm so glad he didn't go ape shit on me! Beat me up or something!"

Max sighed and rested his head on his boyfriend's shoulder, feeling his eyes sting. "I'm proud of you, Neil."

"Had to come out at some point, didn't it?" He laughed, snaking his arm around Max's waist. "D'you wanna get back to what we were doing?" He grazed the teen's inner thigh, making him fidget slightly.

The raven slowly sat up and looked him dead in the eyes. "I…" Max moved his boyfriend's hand away, biting his lip. "Maybe later… n-not now, anyway…"

Neil frowned but respected his decision. Max had always been fickle when it came to intimacy, desperate or anxious - there was no in between. "Okay, that's cool. We could go upstairs and finish that annoying game of yours. Maybe cuddle a bit."

Max's face lit up at the suggestion, to which he nodded in agreement. "Only of you play."

"Deal. I'm only doing this for the cuddles though."

"Fine by me." The raven snickered as he began leading Neil back upstairs, to which they made sure to open the window and lock the door.
