The team's tattoo's.

A part of me wishes that Lance had told me earlier, I can relate with some of his story. I've been kicked out of places, but I never cared probably because I knew I never belonged there, I was always ''Keith the foster kid'' never ''My child Keith'' I was never included as one of the family members. However, the grandmother of my foster sister, she made me feel like I was one of her grandchildren, not an outcast.

But for Lance it's different: He was isolated by those who are supposed to love and care for you. The thought of Lance being outcasted makes my stomach churn, and I hate it. Those rules make me shiver and I can't even begin to imagine what Lance has been through.
To have your father push you away like a broken toy must be heartbreaking. I'm not going to pity him because I know more than anybody that pity is worse than most things.

I dropped Lance off at his house, he was sat in my car fast asleep. I nudged him a little bit and he groaned, ''Lance, we're here now.'' I said quietly. He turned to me and slowly opened his eyes and smiled.
''Hi Keith.''
''Hi Lance, we're at yours now.'' I moved my hand to his hair and stroked it, tucking a piece of hair behind his ear.
Lance nuzzled into the touch and stretched, leaning over and pecking my lips.
''Okay.'' He unbuckled his seat belt.
''Don't think I didn't realise your tattoo Mclain~'' I said a smirk plastered across my face.
''You can't say much Kogane,'' He smiled ''Your need one too, we all have one it's our dance studio/group.'' He explained before getting out of the car.
''See ya around.'' I smiled.
''You too.'' Lance waved and walked into his house.
I drove off and got back to my house, being as quiet and as careful as I possibly could.
I got to my room and got changed, I took a sleeping pill and went to sleep.

Time skip~ Next Day

I woke up at about 9 and went on my phone, there were a few texts from Lance.

Lance: Morning babe ❤

Lance: I was wondering if u wanted to come dancing today?

Morning 💙. Yeah loved too, want me to pick u up?

Lance: Yeah okay. I'll txt u when I'm ready.

K, cya

I got up and walked to my closet, I put on a pair of sweatpants and a tank top on. I put some deodorant, a towel and my water bottle into my dance bag and went downstairs.
No one was up so I just wrote a note and put it on the kitchen counter. I put my shoes on and quickly jogged to my car, it was raining and it gave me a slight comfort. Almost a nostalgic feeling, rain reminds me of my parents and it kind of makes me feel safe.
I was sat in my car deciding on which music I wanted on, Panic! or MCR? But then Lance started calling me.
I answered.
''Hey want me to come pick you up?''
''Yes please, I'm stood outside.''
''Okay see ya in a minute.''
''Okay bye.''
He hung up and I put on FoB instead. A few minutes later I arrived outside Lance's house, he waved and got in.
''Hey babe.'' Lance smiled.
''Hi.'' I smiled back and drove off once Lance had his seat belt on.                                                      "Okay, game plan. Practice Beauty and the Beast, then start planning out the dance for Nine in the Afternoon." I said "We won't properly start NITA until tomorrow, is that okay for you? or do you have plans?" I asked.
"No I don't think so. I'll text you later if I have any plans." I nodded in agreement and parked up in the parking lot of the dancing studio, Lance seemed quieter than usual. "Hey are you okay?'' I asked.

"My dad saw me kiss you last night."               

A wave of silence fell across my car, "Oh God Lance, I'm so sorry. W-what are we going to do?"     
"I don't know." He sighed "He said that he was going to kick me out if I don't..." Tears fell from his eyes like how snow falls from the sky "If I d-don't break up with you and I really don't want to do that to you, I really, really like you."
I lent over and hugged him, Lance hugged back, crying into my shoulder. 
"Lance?" I asked. He hummed in response
"What do we do?" He shrugged his shoulders before pulling away from the hug "I'm not sure."
Everything seems to be collapsing, I hate the fact that Lance has to go through this.
''Okay, we can practice another time, for now we need to figure the out what the fuck we're gonna do.'' I said.
Lance looked up at me and sighed, he kissed me.
I kissed back holding his face in my hands, he then pulled back ''Keith, I think we should break up.''
It broke me, I nodded ''Okay.''
''I'm sorry for doing this to you, but right now, I can't let you get hurt by my stupid-ass dad. He's a dick and he'll do anything in his power to get you away from me.'' Lance explained ''We can still probably make out every once in a while though.'' He said trying to lighten the mood.
I chuckled ''I understand, want me to drop you off?'' I asked
Lance nodded before kissing me once again, I kissed back.
I pulled back and started the car again, driving him back to his house.
We we're on his street corner ''Can you stop here, please?'' He asked.
I parked up ''I'll see you tomorrow.''
''Yeah,'' He planted a kiss on my lips ''One more before I go.'' Lance smiled and got out of the car, walking home.
I drove off in silence, I didn't know whether I wanted to cry or scream.
I know that he likes me and I know that he's only doing this to protect me, but it still hurts.

Everything hurts.

Hello my darlings. 'Tis I, Rapid Freak, I'm so sorry for my absence, exams are coming up and I've been busy revising. 
I'll try to get chapters out as much as I can, but it's going to be a challenge. 
I apologise when you're reading that everything looks a little bit wonky.
I tried writing on my laptop and it went a bit haywire.

Also, thank you for letting me get to another milestone, 2.64k? Seriously?! That is so
crazy!
I'm gonna be doing another Q and A as a celebration (I know that probably sounds boring, don't judge me). So, please leave any questions in the comments, dm's or on that weird-ass conversation thingy, that no one will use. 

Love you all                                    G.A
