He has consistently shown actual, real interest in him. Like taking him out, going to the arcade, the movies, going to the play, etc. even if he THINKS he’s just saying this to lock him down for the sex, the reality is that he’d be completely lying to himself. He likes him. He’s never likes anyone before like this, so he’s extremely confused, but he absolutely likes him.
They actually have pretty decent communication with each other in this story so for once, I think conflict will come from third parties but not from the actual couple
