( sometimes scott doesn't know if he pushes too much or too little, after all.
he turns the knob to his flat, pushing the door open and gesturing for matt to walk in. scott's still on the cusp of becoming middle class, so it really isn't much, but as promised he has a new old couch. it'd taken some work to get it pretty and to not smell like it was old, but that's the case for all of his belongings--things from garage sales, secondhand shops. in any case, he's just glad matt is here today. and he's glad to help him out of his suit jacket to hang over the back of a chair.
he could ask about it, maybe. why matt stopped walking a moment back there. but he finds it more imperative to undo his necktie, to let it hang over matt's neck.
one day maybe things will be comfortable enough to talk about it. scott decides he doesn't mind, because he can wait anyway. )
So if it's nice-- ( his fingertips linger, brushing over the broad lines of matt's shoulders, then lower on his sleeved forearms. ) --you like stuff like this, too?
