I really hope someone can help me with this...I have tried searching through the stories of authors that I regularly read, gone through this lj, looked through fanfic archives...I am desperate! I have read this story many times but I can no longer find it because I lost my favourites. I swear I could find it before simply by googling Nick/Greg and homophobia, but I can't find this fic anywhere. The whole premise is about Nick's homophobic buddies, and the budding feelings between Nick and Greg. Nick introduces Greg to some friends, and Nick's friends happen to have met Greg before this introduction, when he's wearing make up (and in a skirt, I believe?) outside a club waiting for a friend. These friends had thrown some homophobic slurs, and this unfortunately timing means Greg cannot be friends with these guys. (The unfortunate timing was Greg's thought; if I remember correctly, there was a line like, "But the timing was what it was." Greg thought that if they had met through Nick first before seeing Greg in a skirt, they could've laughed about it.)
The story progresses to Nick's friends warning Greg to stay away from Nick, and then the climax with a blow out at Greg's birthday party. Nick had thrown this party for Greg and had invited his friends, and one of them had a bit of alcohol so when he bumped into Greg and Greg steadied him with a hand on the hip, the guy blew up. Everything comes out into the open, and Nick chooses Greg over his friends. I remember distinctly that Nick sort of blew those friends off and when they ask him if he's going to throw away their friendship, he's kinda, "Meh, whatever." He distracts Greg by saying, "Presents!" and the guys storm out.
I would greatly appreciate any help with finding this fic! I think I'll be smacking my forehead once someone points out the title or the author, because I feel like it should be really obvious. I can provide more details or be more specific if needed, I can remember pretty much every part of the story except the name. Argh! A big thank you in advance!
