Lance tapped his foot nervously as the day felt numb to his ears and his finger tips as he watched the clock. Not noticing the teacher calling his name.

"Lance." The teacher poked his shoulder with a pencil and he blinked out of his thoughts and some kids snickered.

"Sorry what did you say?" Lance gulped and saw Keith reading in the corner of the room at his desk as they shared the second to last class of the day.

"Are you feeling okay? You look a little pale dear," she asked him gently and Lance shrugged.

"Well I got a note for you from the office, your suppose to go visit after class alright?" She smiled handing him a piece of paper and he nodded looking at his desk.

"Really Lance, are you okay?" She asked and Lance nodded.

"I'm fine Mrs Jane," Lance gulped and Keith glanced up at him curiously and they locked eye contact. Keith raised an eye brow and Lance shrugged biting his lip.

They waited till the bell rung and left the class room. Lance walked to Keith and immediately grabbed his hand with a small sigh.

"Seem iffy, what's up?" Keith asked flatly and Lance looked at the note saying he had to go to the office.

"Wanna come to the office with me?" Lance asked clearing his throat.

"Sure, I don't need you passing out on the way there," Keith teased but notice Lance out of it lately and nudged him.

"Dude what's your problem?" Keith asked slightly concerned.

"If I didn't know any better I'd say you'd care mullet," Lance smiled at him as they got to the office and he handed them the paper.

"Oh your mom called saying your excused for the day, family issue I believe," the woman smiled up at Lance he seemed to look paler.

"Is she okay?" Lance asked quickly.

"She's fine dear, at least what I know, she didn't say much," the woman explained and Lance nodded grabbing his keys from his backpack and went to leave.

"I'll come with," Keith followed.

"You got class," Lance gulped as he glanced outside to get home sooner.

"It's math, I can do that shit on a calculator, sounded important, let's go," Keith smirked and Lance slowly nodded as his heart skipped a beat getting closer to the car.

"Is it cause your dads coming home today?" Keith asked as he got in the car and lances hand shook as he went to start his car.

"Do you think he got out eariler or-" "don't think about that yet, maybe she's just giving you a break for the day before the weekend since Rachel is back," Keith put his hand on his knee for Lance to look at him.

"Your right..." Lance gulped again as his throat felt dry and reversed the car. After a few seconds passed getting on the road Keith finally gave in and turned on the radio to the car and frowned at the first song.

He noticed Lance seem to relax as the music settled in the air and he tapped his fingers to the beat on the steering wheel. And he started to hum again. Keith was about to snap at him again for the singing but held it back when Lance started to sing to the song to relax himself. (I do this when I drive:))

"Backbeat, the word was on the street," Lance sang along with just as much passion in the song as he made a face to it with a small smile.

"That the fire in your heart is out," he nodded to the song.
