Len's POV
"Anyways, let's do something fun!" I suggested. Things were just pretty tense so I think we need to do something fun to break the awkwardness.
I grabbed Oliver's arm automatically, then I quickly snapped my hand away, sweat dropping. "Sorry!"
He looked hurt. Damn what do I do?! I didn't want to grab his arm and make it awkward, but what if I just made him upset by treating him differently now that I know he's gay?! I AM SO STUPID!
I blushed, "Um Oliver, do you mind that I, um, sort of touch you all the time? Or does that make you uncomfortable...?"
His cheeks were decorated with a light blush, "Oh um no."
"Okay then..." I awkwardly grabbed his wrist and led him to my room.
This feels kind of weird now... I never even thought about it before!
"I'm going to change into my pj's," I told him, stepping into my walk-in closet.
I stripped down and slid on my night shorts. Oh wait! Should I wear a night shirt too? He looked hurt when I changed my behavior before so maybe I shouldn't... But he IS gay so isn't not wearing a shirt sort of like if a girl wasn't wearing a shirt? Besides couldn't he like check me out? Wait HAS he checked me out?! But just because he's gay doesn't mean he would check me out. Then again I check out girls who I don't like so- AGH!
Sick of arguing with myself, I just called out, "Hey kid would you prefer if I wear a night shirt?"
There was silence for a moment before he answered, "Just wear what you want."
He's TESTING me! He wants to know which one I would pick! What do I do?! What do I do?! I finally decided to just go with being shirtless, because he HAS seen it already...
I walked out, feeling like I was about to be judged.
I saw Oliver's eye flicker to my bare chest for a moment, before looking somewhere else. He must not want to seem like he's checking me out and I think I could make out a small smile so I think I made the right decision.
I sat down beside him and sighed, "Hey kid can I get a list of what I can and can't do around you?"
He made a face and shouted, "Just treat me like Oliver! I knew this would happen! That's why I didn't tell you!"
I cringed. How many times was I going to screw up today?
I apologized, "I'm sorry Oliver... it's just, I don't want to offend you or anything."
He sighed, "I just want you to be yourself Len."
I nodded and set up a game for us to play.
A/N: Dammit Len, by trying not to offend Ollie you're just offending him even more, you big oaf! *bonks him over the head* Get your shit together! XD
