Has Lil Nas X found the one to call him by his name? 

In an Instagram story shared over this weekend, the 22-year-old posted a photo of himself shirtless in bed, staring at the camera, lying on the midsection of another shirtless man.

There's no caption or tag or the slightest clue to what it means or who the mystery man is, but sleuths believe that the shirtless beau is Yai Ariza, the backup dancer X kissed at the conclusion of his now iconic  "(Montero) Call Me By Your Name" BET performance.

Some observant viewers even say they've spotted X in the background of Ariza's Instagram stories. And on Ariza's latest post at a beach, X commented "eres hermoso," which Google translates to "you're beautiful."

Fans now believe the two are dating.

Nothing has been confirmed or denied publicly by either party but we hope all parties involved are living their best hot girl summers!

Lil Nas X's debut album MONTERO is expected later this summer.
