"So Adrian asked me out today, after Math..." Nick spoke up from his work, looking over at his best friend and roommate Jeff.

Jeff looked up from his laptop where he had been writing an English essay, "What did you say to him?" Jeff knew that Nick was generally quite around anyone but him, Kurt, Blaine, Wes and David.

"I told him I would think about it... But I don't know."

"It would be a good experience," A pause "Or does it scare you that the second you come out as bi, someone is all over you? You are pretty reserved."

In the silence that followed Jeff got up and walked over to Nick's bed and sat down beside him, placing is hand on Nick's shoulder.

Nick sighed, "He just seems really intense and it makes me uncomfortable." Looking up at Jeff he continued, "You know I don't make friends very easily Jeff, and I've known him for like, two weeks and he asks me out. It seems weird."

"Nick I think you need to calm down, Adrian is nice, and fairly good-looking. So maybe you could try going out on one date and see what happens. You know I'm here for you, and maybe he will make you really happy! It could be good for you and help you break out of your shell."

Jeff grabbed Nick's hands and pulled him off his bed so they were standing up facing each other holding hands. Jeff gave a bright smile, Nick was temporally blinded.

"Come on Nick! Let's sing, that always helps." Jeff quickly spun away dragging Nick with him and sat down on his bed with a bounce, Nick thrown off balance fell on top of Jeff. Both boys froze at the unexpected fall. When they made eye contact their eyes mirrored lust. Nick quickly got up.

I must have just imagined that look. Jeff is straight. He must have been surprised, yeah that's it. He was just surprised.

Nick's mind whirled with thoughts. "Uh, sorry Jeff, you just... Uh... Caught me off guard... So sorry..." He finished lamely.

You can't like him. He's straight and your best friend. You CAN NOT like him. Damn it stop staring at him. Look anywhere but at him and the way he's licking his lips. No, stop Nick. He was mentally yelling at himself. "Yeah, I think I'll take your advice Jeff... I'll go talk to Adrian and tell him we could try..."

With that Nick spun around and left the room closing the door behind him.

Jeff was left there lying in the position that he had been in when Nick fell on top of him. "Did I really just... Like the idea of Nick on top of me?" He closed his eyes and groaned quietly at the memory of the sensation. "But I'm straight, and I just convinced Nick to go out with a guy." Jeff sighed.

It's going to be a long night... Back to my essay I guess. When he felt a tightness in his pants he groaned out loud. "This is going to be a very long night." He spoke out loud. "Guess I'm not as straight as I thought, anyway it doesn't matter, we're just friends."

Nick was hurrying down the Dalton hallways looking for Adrian when he finally caught sight of the handsome taller boy leaning up against a wall, his blazer was left open, he tie was loosely done up and the button up white shirt fit his toned torso perfectly. Nick slowed down his pace and took a moment to admire Adrian's light brown hair, and his deep forest green eyes as the taller boy turned to look at who was approaching. A cat like smile appeared on his face when he noticed the approaching boy, he sharp features becoming more noticeable.

"Hi Nick, so do you have an answer?" Adrian walked over meeting Nick.

"Yes I have... that's why I came looking for you. I wanted to tell you that I decide on a yes. I'd like to give this a try." Nick averted eye contact feeling awkward. When a hand lightly gripped his chin and made him face upward when he looked in Adrian's eyes he saw a warm glow.

Adrian smiled warmly and spoke quietly, "I'm glad."

Nick smiled hesitantly back and whispered "So what's the plan?"

Adrian gave him a deep slightly clouded with lust, "You come with me to my dorm. We can... Hang out." A sly smile formed on his face as he grabbed Nick's writs perhaps a bit more forcefully than needed and pulled him along.

Nick eyes opened wide and let himself be pulled along, "Wh-what do you mean by that?" he stuttered.

Adrian just smiled mischievously, "Oh you'll see."

When Nick and Adrian turned the corner, a blonde boy stepped out from behind the wall where he had been listening to the conversation, his eyes wide with concern staring at where Nick and Adrian had disappeared.

"I hope I did the right thing Nick, but I promise if he ever hurts you, he is going to regret it." The concern in his eyes changed to warmth, "Because you are everything in my life, you are my best friend and I want to keep you safe."

The blonde boy turned around and headed back to his room, "Because you know Nick, I think I love you."

He headed off to get ready to sleep, because The Warblers were preparing for a big school performance the next day and he didn't want Thad, Wes and David to get angry at him, because last time that happened Wes threw his gavel at him.

With those final thoughts Jeff left the hallway.
