Keating

(finally im updating!!!)

« come on neil, just confess. » his mind pounded at him as he stared at todd « neil, please do some work! » todd laughed. how did he laugh, and look so pretty? neil was sure that when he laughed, he looked possesed, but todd looked like the most beautiful thing neil had ever seen. keating, practically neil's best friend, knew. he looked at them like a proud father, and he made them work together, sit next to each other, everything just so they could talk to each other. that's why keating was both neil and todd's favourite, and he knew that.

« haha, sorry! » neil smiled a big, goofy grin. god, todd was down bad. he couldn't help thinking anything else. it was so hard to work when neil was sitting right in front of him. when he looked up, songs played in his head and « i love you » danced around in his mind. he may always be quiet, but that doesn't mean he has nothing to say.

« TODD » mr. keating motioned for todd to come over to his desk. « todd. i know about you, and neil. » todd felt faint, like he would fall over any second. he looked over at neil and gave him a reassuring smile. « now, » he said loudly, attracting the class's attention « you will improvise a poem about.. » he seemed to rack his brain, but todd knew he already had his answer « love » oh my. his first thought was neil.

if it weren't for him
i wouldn't swim
in those sparkly chocolate eyes
my face, with him, is a disguise
so he doesn't see
what is most deadly,
my love.
(first poem i've written in a while 😱)

he could literally die because of this, but him, the dead poets and keating didn't care. « wow, boy! » everyone stared up at todd « anyone would think that poem was whitman! » he pretended the person that the poem was about didn't exist. « alright, class is over! » neil ran towards todd « woah, you had me starstruck! » little did he know, the poem was about him. encouraged by keating, he said

« the poem was about you, neil. i love you. » never in 1000 years did neil expect this to happen. « w-w-whoa.. really? » neil was so f-cking clueless, it actually hurt todd « i love you too. » words actually couldn't exercise their love for eachother.
