Tackling —; Hᴏʟᴛ.. "MATTHEW!"

Flopping on Lucas A, nuzzling and hugging him tightly. "Happy birthday, babe..."

Laughing. Oh boy. "You're such a nerd!"

"...Maybe." Poking Matt again. "It's all your fault that I got it, too!"

MATT!

WAVING EXCITEDLY

Skipping over for a hug!

Yay! "You okay??"

Pfft, no. Hugging Matt tightly. "I am!"

Nodding and pulling away to grin brightly. "...You've been seeing someone new, right?" Squint.

"Hm... You smell different, that's why." Booping Matt's nose. "Wanna talk about it?"

"Kind of." Nodding and smiling in encouragement. "Yeah? What's their name?"

"Well... How do you feel?" Wrapping an arm around Matt for comfort. "Have you talked about your feelings?"

Hugging Matt properly again. "...I'm sorry... But how /do/ you feel? Do you want it to be more serious?" x.com/UtRebellatis/s…
