LISTEN i am all for foggy’s pov where he pines after matt for years and years and years
but you know what beats even that
matt pining after foggy since about two seconds after they meet
matt falling completely and totally for foggy who doesn’t treat him like he’s made of glass, who doesn’t include him just to be nice, but because he truly enjoys matt’s company. matt feeling sick when he thinks about how he feels about foggy because foggy’s the first real connection he’s had since he was about ten, and matt wants to ruin that by running his fingers through foggy’s hair and pulling him impossibly close and learning what his mouth feels like and-
but he doesn’t. he’s selfish enough to want to keep foggy to himself, but he’s not that selfish. sure, jealousy flares up whenever foggy walks in ecstatic and talking about a date, while matt tries not to panic about inevitably being pushed to the sidelines when foggy finds someone he loves, but he will be honestly, genuinely happy when foggy finds the love of his life, all because foggy will be happy.
and the voice in his head that whispers that no one in foggy’s long string of dates is good enough for him is silenced quickly enough when matt reminds himself that they’re still ten times better than he himself would be.
