A/N: The concept in this fic is kind of cliche, I'll admit, but this idea has been stuck in my head for a while, so I decided on making a one shot to get it out of my mind. Also, this is sort of a songfic too, "Keep It Simple, Stupid" is a song by My Body Sings Electric, which is a band that I love dearly and found by Kevin's "Kevin & Aleks Stuck In An Elevator For Almost An Hour" video. If the words are in italics that means it is from the song.
Chapter One: Why Do You Have To Make Me Have These Feelings, Dammit?
KEVIN'S POV:
Oh, all the words you say
Aleks.
He was the one I called my best friend, and the one I cared for most.
Even his voice gave me the biggest butterflies in my stomach, everything about him was perfect.
Are building up a rude escape
made of dry mâché
His voice, his face, his eyes, his hair, and even that cute little laugh he makes sometimes.
I want to tell him so fucking much, but I everytime I see him in person my words get jumbled up and I can't seem to tell him jack shit.
I always say "I'll tell him later" and then when 'later' comes around I say the exact same thing, and the cycle continues.
And the worst part is, I don't even know if he'd ever like me back.
He always says he's straight, nothing more nothing less, and so I reply with the same thing.
"Yeah, Aleks, I'm straight too."
Bullshit.
And it reeks of gasoline
before you set it off
I really wish I never started getting these feelings for him, it sucks, it really does, loving someone and not knowing if they love you back, knowing there's only a small chance that they ever would love you like you love them.
You're giving it up,
You're giving it up now,
You're giving it up before you use control
I've given up on ever hoping Aleks would love me, I know it's never gonna happen.
He thinks those replies I make on Ask.fm, and those Tumblr posts I make about him are just jokes and brotherly love, but he's never been so wrong.
You might find, living in the middle
It's so worth keeping it simple
But you're always finding out
What all your friends are talking about
All of my friends have already suspected my feelings for Aleks, but Aleks somehow doesn't see it.
That's Aleks for you, oblivious as hell.
It's just your attitude
That's got you feeling so removed
From all the people who
Have kindly brought you here
I think it's time to stop
I want to stop loving him, why can't I stop loving him, dammit.
I always tell my friends "no, I don't like Aleks that way, I just really care for him as a friend" but I can tell they are all silently calling my bullshit.
You're living it up
You're living it up now
You're living it up, before you lose yourself
Well, I guess it's not all bad loving Aleks.
At least I have the chance to be friends with my crush, not many people can do that.
But at the same time, being friends with your crush is really shit.
"We're friends, extremely close friends, that's all."
I am the biggest liar you will ever fucking meet.
What do you have to prove,
as a ticking clock, a burning fuse?
It's shit, you know? Having to prove to my friends that I don't like Aleks that way, when they're right and I really do.
You talk so much
It's why no-one talks to you
I probably piss everyone off, with all my constant babbling about Aleks and how much I care for him, I really need to stop that.
But it's so damn hard, keeping all my feelings bottled up with no one to tell them to, I just wish I could tell him.
You might find, living in the middle
It's so worth keeping it simple
But I can't take the risk of telling him, I really don't want to lose him.
Losing him would be the worst thing to ever happen to me.
But you're always finding out
What all your friends are talking about
A/N: This is no longer a one shot whoops.
