"Shit," Nate looked down at his hands. See, this was why Nate didn't like sharing his feelings and stuff like that. It just came around and bit him in the arse. He was better to just go along and pretend everything was fine, and then he wouldn't offend anyone.
No, Garan was not allowed to move away from him. Nate sat up properly and looked right at him, even if Garan wasn't returning the favour. "Don't be. I didn't mean it like, well, I didn't want to make you upset. I was just trying to be honest with you. I'm not a girl. This whole thing is different because neither of us has had a boyfriend before so we don't know..." Fuck. "I mean we've, well at least I've never been with the same bloke for a long period of time so..."
Aaaaand now Nate was rambling, because he definitely hadn't meant to call Garan his boyfriend. There was some backtracking to be done.
