April 2nd
Keith sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes. Sunlight streamed through the window, illuminating Lance's peaceful face. He slept quietly, breathing softly. A soft smile graced Keith's face before he remembered what he did last night. One word came across his mind.
Quiznak.
"Oh man..." He pulled his hair back. "Oh damn." Keith rubbed his temples to try and soothe his pounding skull. "I am so screwed."
He turned on his phone and saw that he had... 72 notifications. "What the..."

He clicked off his phone and walked up the stairs to Lance's room. His bag was still sitting on the side of the room, next to the bed. Keith sat down on Lance's bed and put the backpack on his lap. He pulled out a leather-bound book and unclasped it, turning to a clean page. He took out a pencil and started sketching Lance, in a failed attempt to stop thinking about the previous night.
Keith zoned out as he sketched, mumbling to himself in Korean. When he refocused, he realized he was shaping Lance's lips. "Aish." He rubbed his forehead.
You've got it bad, Katie's voice sang in his head.
"Shut up..." he mumbled. He put the pencil in the sketchbook and flipped the cover over so it was almost closed before placing it on the nightstand. He lay down, staring at the ceiling as his head sunk into the pillow.
Embrace the gay.
...
Love the gay.
Worship the gay.
You are the gay.
"Shut up, Katie."
Love yourself.
Her amused laugh echoed in his head. Keith rubbed his eyes tiredly, and before he knew it, he had fallen back asleep.
Yes, procrastinate the confessions hahahahahaha
//those are things Katie said to him before so he remembers it sometimes
