I think Nicky does piss Andrew off, but not because he's loud and dramatic; because he cares.
Nicky cares, and Andrew can't fathom why. When Nicky agreed to come back to be their legal guardian, he barely knew Aaron and had never even met Andrew before. But he put his own needs and happiness aside for the sake of 'family'. Even when they hurt Nicky, emotionally or physically, Nicky never turned his back on them. Out of everyone, Nicky stayed; he didn't even need a deal. He stayed without being asked or demanding anything in return.
Nicky is likely the best parent Andrew has ever had. An eighteen year old with his own trauma and no idea how to be a good parent to two utterly broken teenagers. Part of him is, of course, grateful but the injustice that this wreck of a boy only three years his senior being the best, most successful and most caring guardian Andrew ever had would make him—justifiably, I think—pissed off.

Thinking again about how Nicky what the only "monster" that Andrew didn't have a pact with. He was the only one who was just ALLOWED to be around Andrew for no reason

hc Andrew made a "baby book" for The Monsters and gave it to Wymack when he went to Easthaven
Kevin cannot be alone ever. He is allowed to think he is alone, but watch him from afar
Neil is not allowed to go anywhere without his phone
Nicky is very touchy. Do not let him tell you that he needs a cuddle buddy. He has a weighted blanket. He is fine. Do not succumb to his tears.
Aaron gets very grumpy anytime he is awake. There is nothing you can do about this. Cope.
Kevin and Aaron are not allowed to drink unsupervised. Nicky probably shouldn't but he will anyway.
Neil does not need to go on a run every morning. Keep him on a leash if you have to
and then Neil and Kevin add to it
Andrew is a needy drunk. He does not get drunk for this reason only
Andrew needs snuggles early in the morning
Do not go near Andrew when he is eating. He will bite you
Keep his nails short so he can not use them as weapons
Keep his nails painted and lollipops in his bag (oral fixation ಠ︵ಠ)
Sometimes he bites. So does Aaron. We don't know why
If he threatens you, flick him on the head. This will disorient him long enough for you to run

I don't know why, but for some reason, I always think the Nicky and Aaron grew up together. But they didn't.
They grew up on opposite sides of the country, over two thousand miles apart. Aaron didn’t move to South Carolina until he was around 13, and Nicky was 16. Then Nicky moved to Germany less than a year later.
They would have barely known each other. Nicky said himself that he was too depressed to pay Aaron any mind when he moved to Columbia. And he'd never even met Andrew before Tilda died.
But he still came back. He came back to a place and a family that had almost been the end of him, for a boy he hardly knew, and another that he absolutely didn't.

'"You're a Fox," Andrew said, like it was that simple, and maybe it was.'
I could've added a lot more details to this and it's not 100% accurate to the book, but I had to stop myself or this would've taken me another week to finish lmao
