Honestly I kinda like them more in a friendship, ray is so nice and they have been friends together for pretty long time so i think It's better to keep it a friendship and specially when the mc had finally moved over ray, now he sees him as a friend and he started to date someone so if ray do anything rn like confess or something it's gonna be a disaster to the mc and it's gonna confuse himso I hipe that ray won't catch any feelings but I guess he already did I hope nothing bad happens.
