Keith: if it's not too much trouble

Lance: ive always got time for you love. it's no trouble at all
Lance: why? is something wrong?

Keith: no
Keith: i just need your help with something

Lance: what is it?

Keith: well my therapist wants to give me a journal so i can write down my thoughts and emotions or whatever
Keith: she gave me a list of questions that she wants me to answer before i start the journal so i can document progress or something?
Keith: she said that it'd be a smart idea to answer the questions when im with you since you're a big part of my healing process. i think it's so you're aware of everything im experiencing and you understand without me having to explain each time i spaz out

Lance: okay baby boy. that sounds perfect to me
Lance: ill be there when i get off in another two hours. okay?

Keith: okay
Keith: thank you

Lance: no need to thank me. im only doing my job as your boyfriend.
Lance: should i be worried that you tell your therapist about me or?

Keith: no you dork
Keith: our relationship is one of the more important ones in my life, so you were gonna come up even if it's not anything bad

Lance: so im not a terrible boyfriend that you feel trapped too and rant to people about?

Keith: of course not
Keith: calm your mind, you have nothing to worry about
Keith: get back to work dork
Keith: i love you

Lance: i love you more
Lance: see you soon gorgeous

Lance put his car in park, a sigh leaving his lips. He took a second to lean against the steering wheel, blue eyes fluttering closed. Exhausted didn't even begin to explain how Lance felt. He was far more than tired, willing to pass out at any second. Lance has been up since five in the morning, that being the time he always woke up for work. He went to sleep last night around one, which wasn't a smart idea knowing he'd only get four hours of shut-eye. Lance didn't normally stay up late the nights before work, but last night he had to make an exception. Keith had fallen asleep around ten because of how tired he was, but he ended up having another nightmare. He woke up just when Lance was going to sleep, but Keith didn't know that. Lance wasn't going to reject a call from his boyfriend, even when he knew he should rest. He didn't regret it either because that was a moment when Keith needed him. Overall, Lance was tired, extremely tired.
