Limerence: The act of being infatuated with someone

Lance pov

The evening went by uneventful. I studied a bit for finals but couldn't concentrate. Those gay thoughts y'know.
Man I'm falling so hard for Keith.

I needed to clear my head so I decided to go onto our back deck and sit and watch the sun set. I shut sliding glass door behind me. Jana was out sitting on the edge smoking a cigarette.
She turned her head as she heard me. She smiled at me
"Come sit" She grinned patting the wood next to her.
I shuffle over in just my socks.
"You must really like this guy" She said blowing a puff of smoke away. I nodded slowly.
"How do you know?" I asked.
"I was watching you when you were at the table studying and you looked deep in thought"
"I could of been thinking about other things"
"Yeah but I know you, you were thinking about him"
I was lost for words
"I know you too well Lance" she teased and blew smoke in my face.
"Give me that!" I scoffed and grabbed the cigarette from between her fingers. "You don't even like cigarettes!" She laughed. I glared at her and inhaled, the smoke filled my lungs and throat and I shoved it back at her and began a coughing fit.
"Why do you do this to yourself?" She laughed, annoyed and took another puff. I spit onto the grass and gagged.
Our words to each other stopped and we both watched the sun set.
The moon was a quarter way full but looked pretty anyway.
I heard crickets chirping in the distance.
"I'm going to get ready for bed" I said and got up from my seated position. "Awe you going to bed early Lancey?" Jana  said in a baby voice.
"It's 10:00 what are you going on about?" I hissed and headed back inside. I looked around the kitchen. Nobody.
I cracked open the sliding glass door again being careful not to let any mosquitoes in.
"¿Papá ya está en casa?" I asked Jana. "Yes he came home a while ago. You were in the shower, but he went to bed already" She said.
"Thanks" I said and closed the door. I have a weird tendency to talk about my parents in Spanish. I don't know where it came from, it just happens.
I turned off all the lights on the ground floor but left the back deck one on for Jana. I jogged up the stairs and went into my room to change.

I'm childish in a way.
I've always been obsessed with space. Ever since I was I kid it's always been something I've loved. I've got glow in the dark stickers stuck into my ceiling and most of them are faded but some still work after years.
I have lots of space books but I don't read anymore so they just sit on my bookshelf collecting dust.
I've gained an interest in aliens in the past few years too.
I have a poster of all the planets on one of my walls. My walls consist mostly of Pokemon posters.
I still love Pokemon.
Who decided that it's just a kids show? I enjoy it and I always have.
I never had too many cards growing up and I was always jeleous of the kids that had hundreds. I have a massive bi pride flag hanging on the wall above the headboard of my bed.
I've got little rainbow flags taped into my wooden headboard and a few pictures of me, Pidge, Shiro, and Hunk at Los Angeles pride from last year.
We were all doing stupid cheesy poses covered in facepaint and temporary tattoos. I was decked out in a crop top I ordered off amazon and booty shorts because I'm extra.
Shiro is kinda secretive about his sexuality but I'm convinced he's Pansexual. Pidge is Asexual, Aromantic AND Agender so good luck trying to get with them. Pidge calls it the 3 A's.

I smiled while looking at the pictures and remembered I have school tomorrow and sprung up off my bed and went into my bathroom to get ready for bed. I brushed my teeth and washed my face because I'm a good boy who cares about hygiene. When I got back to my room I heard a knock at my door.
"Yeah, Come in" I said.
"It was my mother.
"Getting ready for bed I hope?" She cooed wrapping her house coat around her body.
"Yes mamá" I sighed.
"I'm heading off to bed then, your father went to bed ages ago"
I hugged her and she blew me a kiss and I grinned as she shut my door. What did I do to deserve such an amazing mother?

I threw off my shirt and jeans and turned my light off and diving into bed in just my underwear as usual. I checked my phone as I plugged it in to charge on my bedside table.
Only a few
Instagram likes.
I turned it off and rolled over and attempted to sleep.

I put an old faded black shirt with some skulls on it and took off my jeans and hopped into bed in my underwear.
Christine and Dane had just said goodnight to me as I snuggled into my bed and rolled onto my back.
Another fun fact: I can't fall asleep lying anywhere else other than my right side.
I just can't.
Sure I'll lay on my back like I am but I just can't fall asleep like that.
I looked up at my ceiling and not seeing my nirvana poster up there was weird. I still have to put it up.
I've unpacked most of my things.
The room feels foreign and I was kinda scared. I put my headphones into my ears and hit play on my sleeping playlist of music and drifted off to sleep.
