it was right after a small concert in a local bar metallica went down and ordered some drinks just talking about random stuff until one topic came up— crushes.
"hey kirk, don't you like someone?" james says from across the table sitting next to cliff who was talking to lars about a possible drum solo in their next album but after hearing james they stop to look over. "uh- I uh- yeah.. why..?" kirk says feeling his face heat up, feeling all eyes on him, "why not tell us?" james says laughing at kirk, knowing who it was. kirk has always liked lars since they met but he only told james since they were closer than anyone in the band, well— that wasn't his crush. he's always wanted to tell lars but he thinks that if he tried that lars would make fun of him and call him a 'faggot' or something along the lines of that.
"oh uhm- I don't think I should.." kirk says looking down at the table, trying not to think about everyone's eyes on him, "why not tell us kirk? you can trust us." lars says putting a hand on kirks shoulder trying to comfort him in a way. "yeah but it's embarrassing.. y'know?" he says looking up at lars, his eyes tearing up. "I don't think anything can be more embarrassing then the time we walked in on james and cliff making out." lars says laughing a little, looking over to james and cliff whose faces were bright red, "LARS WE WERE FUCKING DRUNK." james says as soon as lars made the comment about them making out. "plus, it's not like you guys haven't made out once or twice when you were drunk so I don't want to hear it." cliff says laughing at the two across from him, noticing kirks face becoming redder by the minute. "we've never made out cliff, we aren't faggots." says lars back, james hearing this looks at kirk whos face has tears running down it, before james could say anything kirk gets up and goes to the bathroom.
"what's his problem?" lars says as he watches kirk get up, "I'll go check on him." cliff says, hopping over james to go find kirk. "lars I think you need to talk to him later, find out yourself." james says looking at him with a 'you fucked up' look. cliff follows kirk in a hurry to make sure he's okay, "kirk wait! what's wrong?" cliff says as he catches up to kirk and grabs his wrist to make him look at cliff. "fuck I don't know if I should tell you.." kirk says with tears pouring out of his eyes, wiping away at every new one that falls down his face, "kirk it's okay, I won't make fun of you." cliff says letting go of his wrist and puts the hand on his shoulder, "I like lars but you just heard what he said, he's going to hate me if he finds out." kirk says crying even more, not trying to wipe away any of the tears falling anymore. "I think you should just tell him kirk, it may seem like he's going to hate you but he's told me more than what you think." cliff says trying to make kirk feel better, "let's go back over there now, okay?" cliff leads kirk back to the table, looking at lars with a upset expression.
"you okay kirk?" lars asked in a frantic way trying to make sure his best friend wasnt mad with him, "yeah I'm fine.." kirk says sniffling a little, trying to keep quiet. "but anyways on the topic we were on, do you have a crush lars?" James says out of the blue, trying to lighten the conversation, "yeah I do, I mean cliff knows who it is so." lars says laughing a little, looking at kirk quickly before looking back at james. "jeez, wonder who it is?" cliff says sarcastically before laughing, lars flipping him off from the reaction and getting a little giggle out of kirk, "but anyways back on the topic of kirk, why not tell them who you like kirk?" james says, looking over at kirk to get a reaction out of him. "I think the only person that doesn't know now is lars." kirk says getting a little upset with james, "man who is it? why won't you tell me?" lars says getting a little offended by not knowing and starts guessing a lot of their female friends with kirk shaking his head no and giggling a little. "why don't you tell him your crush lars, then maybe he'll tell you his?" cliff says laughing at them both before whispering to james about who Lars' crush is, "YOUR CRUSH I-" james starts to say before cliff and lars slap a hand over his mouth quickly. "james I swear to fucking god." lars says staring James straight in the eyes before feeling his hand pushed away, "yeah, yeah I won't say it.." james says rolling his eyes before laughing.
after a little bit of talking some-what about the same topic cliff watched kirk write something onto a napkin and hands it over to James, seeing james write something back and seeing kirks face go bright red he can only guess what it is. "whatca writing over there?" lars says leaning over trying to see what was written on the napkin before kirk pushes him away, "nothing! nothing, it's nothing!" kirk says trying to push lars away as quickly as he can so he doesn't find out what was on it. "cmon just show m-" lars says grabbing the napkin and reading the words 'I think I'm ready to tell lars that I like him.' written on it, then suddenly the whole table goes quiet then kirk gets up quickly and runs to the bathroom to hide with lars following behind.
"kirk! wait!" lars says following behind kirk, not being able to catch up to him before he locks himself in the stall, "kirk, please. unlock the stall." lars trying to get it open he hears silent sobs coming from inside and with no luck he slides under the stall. "hey it's okay, don't worry I'm not mad kirk." he says hugging the older male in front of him, "I'm sorry lars.." kirk says as hugs lars back even tighter sobbing into his shoulder. after pulling back from the hug, lars looks at kirk for a good second before kissing him softly then he pulls away and looks at kirk, "i love you kirk, really." "I love you too, lars." he hugs lars again then they go back out to the table then they tell the other what happened.
