Summary
George Clarke was arguably the least flirtatious, the least touchy, the least inclined to feel flustered. His lack of engagement and consistent flirting was the most likely reason for ArthurTV's tendency to admire him more than most. If George said something nice or flirty, it was like a surprising, rare reward that Arthur tended to grab onto with both hands.
The problem with that logic, is that George's instincts and attention were marginally different directed towards Arthur than the rest of their friend group.
One night, during a pub golf video, George's ability to console the urges to protect and alleviate him was impaired. The night turns unexpectedly intimate - as does the morning after.
The night causes an irrepressible, subtle shift in their dynamic. Between acts of care, displays of protectiveness & jealousy, playful flirting, and emotional misunderstandings the line between friendship and a relationship starts to blur.
Every touch, every comment, every flirt, every glance is charged with a tension so overwhelming that it's uncertain whether they're going to make it out alive.
