Hi, my name is Ben.
NATHAN: Just let me do all the talking.
I haven't had sex with my boyfriend for...
ME: You know, we have a few minutes until we get to the apartment, and there's nobody at that intersection.
NATHAN: Unfortunately I'm not a 16-year-old boy from Texas looking for a cheap thrill, Ben!
ME: Yeah, unfortunately.
...for way too long.
We get to Hank's new apartment a few minutes later. After a few knocks, Hank opens the door.
HANK: Is this when you hand me the pamphlets?
NATHAN: Hahaha...Hank, you're so adorable. We came to help you move.
ME: We got the facebook invite.
HANK: Did you get the part that said 'Come at four?' It's nine thirty.
NATHAN: You're right. It's so late. We should probably just crash here.
HANK: Huh?
ME: I mean, I'd have to drive back to New Bedford and Nathan would have to go to Foster--
--and we'd both have to drive back to separate beds, alone, sexless--or worse, have sex in the same house as our parents...
NATHAN: And you, me, and Ben are not nearly friendly enough.
...And Hank's the only one who has his own place that might actually fall for this.
HANK: That's because I hate Ben, and Ben hates me.
ME: Hatred is such a flexible emotion.
Nathan tries to push on.
NATHAN: We could keep you company. It must be a little weird being all on your own in your own apartment for the first time.
I can see this argument gets to Hank. He softens a little.
HANK: Okay, you can crash here for tonight.
NATHAN: Amazing!
We barreled into the apartment.
HANK: You can crash on the futon I guess.
NATHAN: Thank you, Hank, but Ben isn't allowed on futons after the whole cheating on me thing.
HANK: Well, there's--
NATHAN: I was kidding! Hahaha...The futon's great.
ME: It doesn't squeak much, does it?
Nathan elbows me in the side.
HANK: So what movie do you want to watch?
Got any porn?
ME: Family Guy DVD's are cool.
It looks like Nathan and I have a new best friend.
