Matt looked up from the thing he had been working on.
“ sure techie you can ask me anything. You know that.”“If I were to s-set you up with someone… In a, erm, hypoth-thetical scenario… would you be okay with either a b-boy or a girl? Or someone else?”
Techie’s cheeks are flushed rose-red from embarrassment. It had taken a good three hours of psyching himself up for this before he’d gotten the courage to ask.
Hypothetically matt knew what that meant. If Techie was looking to set him up with someone else that meant he had no interest him. Why would he as he was with someone else. Maybe matt would like the guy he was being set up with. He wanted to frown but forced a smile on his face.
“ guys I like guys.”
Techie’s entire face transformed. There was no way he could hide his utter joy; his pupils whirred wide open and lips parted with an upward tick to them, eyebrows raising. “Oh! M-Me too! Guys are great!!” he blurted out, so damn excited his heart felt full, fingers grasping Matt’s sleeve and tangling up in it.
If Matt only liked men, then he couldn’t be dating Kess!! Techie sort of swooned forward like he wanted to kiss Matt. Which he did want. A lot.
Matt felt his heart fluter as he watched techies facial expression change. He could t hold back the wide smile that pulled on his lips when he confessed to him that he too liked guys.
At least that was one less thing matt had worry about as a reason techie wouldn’t want to go out with him. Still it didn’t mean he would like him. Matt probably wasn’t even his type.
“ yeah they really are aren’t they?” He said with a small smile.
He looked down to where techi s band was twisted in his sleeve. Even that light bit of contact caused matt to flush.
Still riding a wave of euphoria, Techie tugged insistently at his sleeve until they’d gotten even closer. “Matt… I d-didn’t really want to s-set you up with anyone.” Just me, he thinks desperately. Just ME.
But this is crazy. Techie’s lost his mind. He should let go of him right now and stop begging Matt for a kiss with his eyes.
His grip on the fabric tightens.
