I don't think Bryan is going to kiss / cheat on Miller.. I feel like Riley was probably really close to Bryan when they were on Farm Station together (and close to Clarke when they were on the station together?) But if Riley is gay, I feel like if Bryan felt some kind of deeper connection to him, they probably would have already explored that previously, and perhaps a Briller break up will come up because Nathan finds out.
I wasnāt saying that Bryan would cheat on Miller. Absolutely not I donāt see that. I was trying to think of reasons for Rileyās existence (it couldāve easily been Monty who recognised him, not Bryan, and I wouldnāt be having this thought - everything happens on screen for a reason), and I thought maybe because Bryan was the one who recognised him first, they might have something going on further in the season (ifĀ he lives) (dear God, I hope he lives).
And yeah, I think they were definitely good friends (and yes, apparently Riley was with Clarke, too) so maybe youāre right - if there was going to be a connection they mightāveĀ already looked at it. But I donāt think they wouldāve.
Miller and Bryan have a long standing relationship, the only one on the show. They canonically share a room, showing that theyāre seen as a legitimate enough relationship to do so. That means they love each other, theyāre important to each other, they were in it for the long haul. If Bryan and Riley ever had that relationship, I highly doubt Bryan wouldnāt have already told Miller about it.
So my guess would be that Riley mightāve had an unrequited crush going on, and after the break up (because weāre assuming thereās going to be one no matter how much Iām crying over that) he gives it a shot with Bryan, who turns him down. Rileyās gonna have more than that going on in the show obviously (both because Bryanās a minor character and not important enough to introduce someone new for, and because Clarke knew Riley from before), but if thatās whatās happening with his relationship with Bryan, then I think thatās interesting.
It would also be a good moment for Bryan to realise, inevitably, you know what, Nateās the one. I canāt let him go. Iāve got to get him backĀ and then theyāll be together for the end of the world and all that.
Hopefully, with an actual moment to explain myself, that makes more sense.
