As Matt stepped Back into the living room as he thought to himself:

'God, this is embarrassing.'

Nate had put on some clothes while Matt was in the bathroom and sat on the couch waiting patiently and watching a movie.

"Hey, uh, Nate I think the clothes you lent me are a bit big..."

"What do you mean?" Nate questioned.

Matt stepped into the doorway pausing to let Nate examine him.
His pastel blue pajama pants were just barely resting on his hips while his black shirt while loose in the arms and shoulders, slightly revealing his collar bone, was cut short and hung just above his mid drift when standing up.

"Holy shit." Nate said under his breath. "U-uh, yeah. I can see why you might think that."

"I'm fine with it for now, but I figured I let you know now for," He cleared his throat slightly "future reference." Matt smiled avoiding eye contact.

"Yeah totally. Sorry about that." Nate tried to comfort him failing only slightly.

The two men sat quietly only the sound of the television breaking the silence. Why was this so awkward? It's not like them, and especially not like Nate.

Nate turned and faced his friend looking towards the floor. "Hey Matt?" The other looked up "thanks for trying to help me with this, it uh, it means a lot to me." Matt looked at him tenderly and took one of Nate's hands within his own "I will make this work. Even if you don't get together with this guy, I promise I will make sure your happy."

Nate grinned and proceeded to get up from the couch "come on, let's go to bed."
