The best way is to treat him like any other of your friends now, you can't help what you did and if you say sorry he'll understand.
Go out, and if he offers to pay don't say 'No I will' this will make him feel bad again, just say you will both pay half and half or if he is really telling you he wants to allow him, it will make him understand that you don't want to act like a mother to him any more and more like the friends your meant to be.
I hope you sort it out with him
