As he heard a knock at his front door, Greg knew who it had to be. Things had been rocky between him and Nick ever since before Angie's party, and the fact that the fucking crime show had just been broadcasted did help either, as it outed Nick and Greg to anyone in the world with cable TV. Including Nick's parents. Who happened to be in town.
Fuck.
Greg got up off of the couch, shuffling over to the door and opening it slowly. "Hey." He said quietly, solemnly, when he saw Nick standing in the hall before him. He didn't like the look on his face.
As the door opened Nick's heart fell and he swallowed, sticking his hands in his pockets. "Hey." He answered, softly. He averted his gaze and cleared his throat. "Can I come in?" He asked. It sounded better then 'We need to talk.'
Greg nodded, suddenly embarassed, as he had forgotten they were still standing in the doorway. He shook his head a bit, trying to clear his mind. "Yeah. Of course." He said, in the same quiet tone, before walking inside and sitting down on his couch again.
"So.." He said, looking at his feet. He had never been at a loss for words with Nick like this before.
Nick sat down on the opposite end of the couch, turning to face Greg. "I just... I want to apologize for the way I acted at the party. I was being stupid." He paused, looking down at his hands that were now sitting in his lap.
"My parents saw." He said, running his hands through his hair.
