Keith Kogane was a senior in high school. He only ever planned for the jobs he wanted in the future, planning out what classes he had to pass to get accepted into certain colleges. This would be the last month of school and Keith was freaking out.

Finals, finals were coming. The Final finals, the finals that would determine his life. Keith was stressing. Like, panic attack stressing. He needed a tutor. For, everything. And he needed one fast.

Keith walked down the halls, looking at all the posters advertising tutors. Most were crossed out, saying they were full, others were half ripped off. Keith scratched his head as he looked at one of the last posters hanging up.

Need a tutor for math or science. Maybe one for english or global?

If so, call XXX-XXX-XXXX

Hourly rate: 10$ for 1-3 hours, 5$ for 4-10 hours

Tutor: Lance McClain

Okay, so Keith desperately needed a tutor, but he wasn't this desperate.

So, fun fact, Keith hated Lance. No, hate wasn't a strong enough word. Keith couldn't stand this kid. Lance was in a few of Keith's classes and godswas he annoying. He was always trying to one-up Keith, always right behind him on test scores, on projects, on everything, Lance was always behind Keith.

"Maybe I could ask Pidge?" Keith muttered to himself. "Ask Pidge what?" a voice said from behind Keith, making him jump. Keith slapped Shiro's arm as he held his chest.

"Jesus flying Christ, Shiro!" Keith yelled, making the older boy laugh. "What are you even doing here? I thought you had college testing today?" Keith asked as the two walked down the hallway.

Shiro smiled, making his scar rise up on his face. "Tests were canceled because of a car accident on the road nearby. Also, I wanted to see my little Bro." Keith rolled his eyes as they walked outside.

"Shiro, I'm not your real brother." Keith said. Shiro laughed. "For the time being, you are." Shiro said as he opened the passenger door for Keith to his car. "Yeah, but once I mess up with your family, guess who's getting moved to a different family?" Shiro started the car and turned to Keith. "It's been a year Keith, you're not going to leave us."

Keith was an orphan, his parents dying in a house fire or something, Keith couldn't remember, or, he just said he didn't remember and refused to tell anyone.

So, he became a foster kid, moving from house to house. Not a lot of families liked him, he was too angsty, had weird music tastes, caused to much trouble, his sexuality wasn't "right". Shiro was the third family he's been with in the past two years. But finally, Keith had felt like he had a home. Shiro was an amazing brother and his parents were pretty awesome, accepting of both Shiro and Keith's sexuality.

Oh yeah, Keith was gay. Shiro was bisexual but still pretty interested in girls. Mostly.

"Yeah, but you never know. Anyway, how was studying with ~Matt~" Keith sang the name, making Shiro's cheeks flush. "A-Allura came too." Shiro stuttered out, pulling out of the school driveway. Keith sighed. "Shiro, you need to make up your mind. You can't lead them both on."

Shiro gripped the wheel. "I know that. It's just, I mean." he sighed. "I like Matt, he's my best friend, we do everything together and he's cute and funny and smart. I love him more than just friends and I'm pretty sure he does too. But, I also like Allura, she's....predictable, and sweet. She knows how to cheer me up when I'm sad and I like her more than a friend too. It's---It's hard Keith." Shiro sighed as he stopped at a red light.
