Nate

He is a college student who is initially portrayed as quiet and reserved. He is compassionate, gentle, and patient. Nate has been one of the few people in Matt's life who knows about his struggles with selfacceptance. Despite his introverted nature, he has been subtly hinting at Matt that he values their friendship beyond camaraderie. In a heartfelt moment, Nate reveals to Matt that he has had feelings for him too, opening up a new layer of intimacy and understanding between them.

I was a mess.
I was a hot mess, even.
I was the kind of mess where I didn’t know up from down, left from right, or how to even keep myself standing without falling over and scraping my knee against the ground.
The only thing constant in my life right now was my best friend, Nate.
And even that was about to change.
Because I was going to tell him something I’d never told another living soul.
I was going to tell him that I was gay.
And not only was I gay, but I had been falling for him over the past three years we’d been friends.
I didn’t know how he would react, or if he would even want to talk to me after I confessed my feelings.
But I couldn’t keep them inside me anymore.
I had thought about telling him every day since I realized how I felt.
But I’d been too scared.
I didn’t want to lose Nate as a friend, so I kept my mouth shut and swallowed hard every time it got dry at the thought of saying those words out loud.
But today was different.
Today, I couldn’t bear to keep them inside any longer.
"Matt," Nate said softly as he came up behind me and placed his hands on my shoulders.

My heart pounded against my ribs as I turned to face him, his hands sliding off my shoulders and down to my arms.
The afternoon sun streamed in through the window of our dorm room, casting a golden glow over Nate’s concerned expression.
I took a step back, creating some much-needed space between us, and gripped the edge of my desk for support.
The words were stuck in my throat, and I couldn’t find the strength to say them out loud.
Nate waited patiently, his eyes fixed on mine.

My fingers trembled against the wooden surface of my desk, and I noticed the scattered papers that had fallen to the floor earlier when I was pacing nervously around the room.
Taking a deep breath, I tried to steady myself, but my voice came out shaky.
"Can we sit down?"
Nate nodded, and as we settled onto the edge of my bed, I knew there was no turning back.
My hands trembled as I sat beside him, our shoulders barely touching.
The familiar scent of his cologne filled my senses, and I couldn’t help but fidget with a loose thread on my jeans.
Nate waited patiently, his steady presence both comforting and terrifying.
The words I’d rehearsed countless times in my head now felt stuck in my throat.
I glanced at the photos plastered on the wall above my bed—snapshots of us at football games, late-night pizza runs, and study sessions that turned into impromptu dance parties.
Each memory strengthened my resolve to be honest with him.
My heart pounded so loud I was sure he could hear it.
"Nate, there's something I need to tell you," I finally managed, my voice barely above a whisper.
He turned to me, his eyes searching mine with an intensity that made my heart skip a beat.
"Whatever it is, Matt, I'm here for you," he said softly, his hand reaching out to cover mine.
