A/N trying my hand at more fluffy one shots. I'm yoloing this so bare with me
————-

—-Keith P.O.V—
I got a roommate. Her names Laura. She's cool enough. Always cleans up after herself, really outgoing and nice, and is always singing as she wanders around the apartment. I woke up this morning and told her I was going for a walk. I guess she saw me sneak my earphones, because she grabbed me and said, "Keith Kogane, please take this opportunity to listen to some of the best music in the universe"

That's how I ended up strolling down the street listening to Dear Evan Hansen.

I click shuffle on the album, and slip my ear plugs under my thick mass of hair. I start to hear a gentle song, slowly filling my ears. The guy singing is soft, but the lyrics aren't exactly happy.
The back streets of town are basically empty. I keep my head down and stare at the ground as I walk.

On the outside always
looking in. Will I ever
be more then I've always
been? Cause I'm tap
tap tapping on the glass.
Waving through the window.

Im gonna hate to admit this, but Laura was right. This isn't a bad song. But I know for a god darn fact that there are love songs on here. And I defiantly don't want to be reminded of what I don't have. Coming out as gay was easier then I expected. To be honest, no one really seemed to care. It's such a normal thing now that it's almost like I didn't need to come out at all.

When you're falling in a forest,
and no one is around

One foot. Then another. Down the back streets.

Do you ever really crash
or even make a sound

One foot.

When you're falling in a forest
and no one is around

Then another.

Do you ever really crash
or even make a sound

Then a-
"Sorry"

Did I even make a sound?
Did I even make a sound?

"Sor-"
Have you ever seen something so beautiful that you just freeze? Maybe an ocean, or a sunset, or a child, or a book or a piece of artwork. That's what I saw when I looked in his eyes. I just froze.
My hands stayed in the front pockets of my red hoodie, my long black hair fluffed over my eyes.

It's like I never made a sound
Will I ever make a sound?

He looks slightly down on me, his tan body wearing a long sleeve blue T-shirt. His hair was pushed back from his face. But god his eyes. Those god damn.
I slip my ear phones out of my ears, letting them rest around my neck.

"Sorry I was just-"
My voice is cut off by a sudden burst of singing and music blaring from my ear plugs.

On the outside always looking in
Will I ever be more then I've always been

"Ah shit"
With shaking hands I grab my phone and pause the music.

The stranger chuckles.
"What are you listening to?"

I sigh, trying to stop myself from blushing. "My roommate is obsessed with Dear Evan Hansen. She badgered me into listening to it"

"Mind if I listen in?"

"Don't want to sound rude, but I'm not too comfortable sharing earbuds with a stranger."

"Then let's not be strangers. The names Lance. I'm a chaotic bi and I'm Cuban" he extended his hand out to me with a flashy smile.

Chaotic bi.
Bi.
He liked guys.
I like guys.
IM A GUY.

"Keith. Not Cuban. Gay" I slowly took his hand, and handed him an earbud.

Lance smiled. Not a flashy, look-at-me-I'm-awesome smile but a genuine, cute smile. Like when the person you like looks at you. He slipped the ear bud into his ear, and I skipped to the next song in the playlist.

End of May or early June
This picture-perfect afternoon we shared

A gentle melody fills my head.

Drive the winding country road
Grab a scoop at À La Mode
And then we're there

I want to look at his eyes. His oceanic eyes. Then why the fuck am I staring at the pavement.

An open field that's framed with trees
We pick a spot and shoot the breeze
Like buddies do

I hear Lance chuckle, and I turn to look at him.

Quoting songs by our favorite bands
Telling jokes no one understands
Except us two

He's looking at the ground, but his eyes are filled with memories. Not quiet staring. More reminiscing.

And we talk and take in the view

I smile.

All we see is sky for forever
We let the world pass by for forever
Feels like we could go on for forever this way

He looks up to me.

Two friends

He smiles.

on a perfect day

I'm lost again. Completely. It's almost like I can see his life through his eyes.

One foot after the other
One branch then to another

I'm only jolted back to reality when a drop of rain hits my head.

I climb higher and higher
I climb 'til the entire
Sun shines on my face

I look up at the grey cloud that has formed above us.

And I suddenly feel the branch give way

Rain.

I'm on the ground
My arm goes numb
I look around
And I see him come to get me

Then a hand grabs my chin.

He's come to get me

I'm pulled back over.

And everything's okay

And I'm lost again.

All we see is sky for forever
We let the world pass by for forever

His eyes take in my face. He doesn't say a word.

Buddy, you and I for forever this way, this way
All we see is light

He just holds my face and stares.

'Cause the sun burns bright
We could be alright for forever this way

Another drop of rain.

Two friends
True friends

And another.

On a perfect day

The gentle melody of the song draws to a close, and it's finally pouring. I snap myself out of my trace and pull out my ear bud.

"Sorry for getting you caught in the rain"

"Hey it's no problem" he hands the ear bud to me. "Anything for a pretty face"

I roll my eyes and shove my phone in my pocket. "Well. See you around I guess"

I try to ignore the fact that Lance looks disappointed. I just awkwardly nod at him and turn around.
Keith.
Boi.
What are you doing.
What am I doing.

I quickly turn around, to see Lance trudging away in the rain.
"LANCE WAIT!" I run beside him and grab his hand.

"Keith what the fu-" I pull him along with me, and we run through the rain down the street.

We reach a doorway, and I push him into it. With a confidence that I've never known before, I push him against the wall and I kiss him.
As soon as our lips touch, sparks fly. At first he hesitates, and I can feel my body tense up, but Lance starts to kiss me back. And then I just melt.
His hands tangle in my hair. The kiss gets sloppy and passionate. The rain thrashing down on us doesn't help. I pull back, and Lance is breathless.
I love it when he's breathless.

"See you around" I step out of the doorway, and keep walking.
