3rd person POV:

"Just stay calm, okay? You can do it, okay, I know you can. We went over this like ten times today. Just walk up to her and say-"

"I know, I know, tell her that I like her and want to date her, and then take it from there. I know all this, but I'm just having second thoughts on this, I don't know if I can do it."

T sighed. There was nothing more painful than trying to set up the person you were madly in love with with someone else. For Z's sake, he put on a supportive smile. "You've got this, bro!" Z looked unconvinced. "I can even go with you, if you want. For moral support."

Z's face lit up. "Really? Thanks, dude! That would definitely help," he beamed, throwing his arms around T in a grateful hug.

T tensed, before forcing himself to relax and hug Z back. "Sure thing. Happy to help," he forced a smile. He pulled away, only semi-reluctantly.

"... And then, I said that I would go with him to confess his feelings for her! How am I supposed to do that? I'm an idiot."

"No arguments here," Tae broke off laughing as T shoved him off the bed where he was currently flopped across dramatically.

"This is serious, Tae," T groaned. "I don't know how I've gotten through him telling me all the time how much he loves her. How am I going to be able to handle them dating?"

"Look, I wouldn't worry about it, okay? Robaire said that she doesn't even... Never mind. The point is-"

"Wait," T cut him off. "She doesn't what?"

Tae shook his head at him teasingly. "Sorry, buddy. Boyfriend code. Robaire tells me all his secrets, and I keep them for him. Also the sex is really great-" T started screaming into the pillow. "-But you don't need to hear about that."

-

"Okay, okay, okay. I can do this. I can do this. Hey. No. Heyyyyy, how you doing? No, that's even worse! T, I can't do this!"

Yes, good. Let's go back home. "Sure you can!" No. Don't. "I have total faith in you." I love you. "You're my best friend." Don't leave me. "You've got this!"

Z smiled in relief. "Yeah. I can do this. Thanks, T. You always make me feel better when I'm like this."

"It's my superpower," T joked. Yeah, the power of the GAYS. "Shut. Up." He growled.
Z blinked at him. "Uh, what?"
Shit. "Ha! Nothing. Moving on..." T felt his whole face go red.

"Oh, okay." Z's face cleared of confusion immediately, quickly going back to the anxiousness he had been feeling a minute ago.

T sighed in relief. It was amazing how much you missed when you were in love. "Look, there she is." He dragged Z over to her, ignoring the frantic protests Z was giving. "Hey! Z has something to say to you!"
