Maybe they made a weird foursome of friends. Wes and Justin, Colton the third wheel, Nick the dad. If Nick had been boring or a douche, it wouldn’t have worked. But he was surprisingly easy to be with. Like Justin, but without the hard edges. Solid, with a different kind of life experience grounding him. Justin was a survivor, while Nick was accomplished, similar personalities shaped by different lives. Why wouldn’t Colton like Nick if he liked Justin, he’d said once when Orlando asked him why Justin’s dad hung out with them so often. “He’s cool. It works, man.”
