summary: Keith is busy studying but Lance convinces him to take a break and spend time with him instead but when Lance has the perfect opportunity to confess to Keith, he can't guarantee he'll get another chance like that

no one's pov:
Keith and Lance were in college and shared a dorm. The two had a huge crush on each other and it was painfully obvious to everyone but them. Keith had finished his classes earlier than Lance, so when he got back and walked into their room, he noticed Keith was sitting at his bed with his raven hair tied back. He had his laptop and textbooks spread across the bed. Lance couldn't help but get butterflies when he saw the older boy with his hair like that. Lance always made fun of his mullet (especially now as it hadn't been cut in a while) but it was all just a way to hide how much he loved it.

"you're studying again?"
Lance stated. Keith glanced up at him for a second before focusing his attention back on the screen.
"yeah I have an important test at the end of the week and unlike some people- I care about my grades" Lance glared at Keith with a shocked and offended face.
"for your information, Keith, I do care about my grades!"
"of course you do, that's why you never study and when I try to help, you don't listen and go into your own little world" Keith sarcastically said, looking up at lance and laughing at the thought of literally every time he's tried to help Lance with studying.
The Cuban looked away in embarrassment remembering all of their failed study sessions and how he got so easily distracted by Keith. Lance couldn't help but admire the boy. He loved Keith's deep purple eyes that reminded him of the night sky and his stupidly cute hair and his dumb gloves and his soothing and calming voice that rattled around his head for hours- oh shit. He was doing it again. Lance quickly suppressed his thoughts of Keith and looked back at him.
"why don't you take a break for a bit? you've been studying for days now and I don't want you to overwork yourself, Keith"
Lance finally said with worry in his voice. Keith looked back at his stuff scattered across his marron duvet and didn't say anything.
"please?" Lance added.
That was enough to convince him.
"Okay fine. But only for a little bit" Keith eventually replied with a sigh but he had a soft smile on his face.
As much as he hated to admit it, he really enjoyed the taller boy's company, even if he did get incredibly annoying. Keith couldn't quite explain it but he just always felt comfortable with Lance. He wasn't too good around new people but when he met Lance- things just felt right. Lance introduced him to his friends and helped him break out of his shell more. And as they got closer, Keith started to fall for loverboy Lance more and more.

Keith moved his textbooks onto his bedside table and shuffled back, leaning against the wall, making room for Lance to sit down next to him. As Lance sat down on the older's bed, Keith opened Netflix and found a movie he knew Lance enjoyed. He didn't care what they watched, secretly, he just wanted to spend time with Lance. Even if they weren't talking, he just loved knowing that Lance was there; something about his company was just so comforting and relaxing.

Lance had a busy and tiring day and could tell he was starting to drift off into sleep while watching the movie but he was trying his best to stay awake. He managed to convince Keith to take a break and spend time with him and it would be a waste if he fell asleep. However, within the first half of the movie, Lance had fallen asleep. He was originally sitting fairly close to Keith as he had a twin-sized bed, due to the small college dorms, but now that Lance had lost consciousness, he was resting his head against Keith's shoulder. Lance was tall and lanky with long limbs, but his legs were curled up, compact to the side of him. When Keith noticed the Cuban's head had fallen into his shoulder he panicked and almost questioned what Lance was doing but he refrained himself from asking because he really didn't want Lance to move. Keith's stomach filled with butterflies and his cheeks were dusted with a light shade of pink. He wanted this moment to last forever.
