Idol Love [Klance AU]

Chapter 36

Laying on Lance's bed felt weird to Keith after they fought. The overwhelming sense of doom lurked over him causing his stomach to twist and churn while he waits for Lance to come bursting through the door. He's sure by now that Lance is on his way home. He should be here any second.
Keith pushes his still-damp hair out of his face and rolls over onto Lance's side of the bed, sprawling out on his stomach. Might as well be comfortable when being yelled at, right? He continues to scroll his Instagram feed, liking pics and commenting every once and a while. 

Finally, Lance comes home and Keith can already hear the worry in his voice. Lance bursts through the door looking like a worried mess, "Where the hell did you go?!" 

Keith turns on his side to send Lance a look full of sarcasm, "Home"

Lance slams the door shut and walks over to the bed, running a hand through his damp hair, "I was worried sick about you! Don't you ever do that EVER again."

Keith rolls his eyes and turns his back to his boyfriend, attempting to shut him out and avoid any sort of conversation. Lance is not having any of that shit. Leaning against the bed and reaching around Keith, Lance easily nabs the Korean's phone and ignores all the protest. Opening a dresser drawer, Lance throws the phone in along with his own, "We need to talk, Keith."

Keith glares at Lance for a moment before deciding he's going to continue to be a brat and ignore the situation, shunning Lance once more. At this point, Lance is fed up. Usually, he's the one that's avoiding situations with Keith but now the tables have turned. 

"Keith," Lance sits on the bed, placing a hand on his shoulder, "I know you're mad at me,"

"Well, if you know I'm mad, then why don't you fuck off."

Pushing his shoulder down, Lance pins Keith against the bed, "Don't tell me to fuck off, Keith."

Squirming beneath the other, Keith tries to get Lance off of him but fails. Whatever anger that possesses Lance at this time is clearly giving him more strength to keep Keith from running away. After much effort, Keith finally gives, "Fine."

"Keith-"

"What"

"What's going on with you tonight?"

"What do you mean?"

"First you were on your phone for an hour, ignoring me, then you get all pissy over us being a secret. What the hell is going on?"

Keith is cornered and he knows it. Not wanting to talk about his problems was always an issue for him. When he tried he always came off and cold. But, talking is part of a relationship.

"I got news from Axca that there was a verbal disagreement between Lotor and Narti. It got violent and now Narti is in the hospital and they're all lying to protect that dumbass Lotor. Axca and Ezor were debating whether or not to tell the authorities but opted not to out of fear. I'm just mad and upset that I couldn't do anything. Like, I mean, I know they aren't my problem but the girls were like a family to me for years. And ever since I left... Things have been spiraling out of control. With that on my mind and you being indecisive as all hell tonight, I just wanted some sort of an out. Some happiness I guess. But all I did was be a dick and piss you and myself off. Oh, and on top of that-"

"Wait! Wait a second. Jesus you are going a mile a minute, babe. Take a breath."

Keith sighs and continues, "Lance, tonight has been a shit show and I'm sorry. I tried to force you to do something to make me happy when I knew it wasn't gonna happen."

Lance is still comprehending the entire situation, "So... Let me get this straight. Narti, which I'm assuming was that quiet one with the cat, is hospitalized because of an argument and you feel like shit 'cause everything is taking a turn for the worst, and to try and make yourself feel better, you tried to get me to out myself."

"I mean that's the summed up version."

"Okay..." Lance takes a moment and removes his hands from Keith's shoulders. He turns his back to Keith and stares down, contemplating what he should say and/or do.

The latter sits up and let's out another sigh, "Lance, I know I should've said something but it's really just my problem. I didn't want to say anything and bug you so I-"

"Pissed me off and then had me looking for you for an hour and a half in the darken hills of Hollywood? How the hell did you even get back here in the first place?"

"Weeeeelll... about that..."

"Keith, what happened?"

"Well, I was walking around in the dark, listening to music when a cop kinda pulled up behind me and questioned me."

"Okay, I'm assuming the cop just drove you home."

"Well yeah, but I had to convince him that you are my boyfriend, soooooo... that was fun."

"WHAT?!"

"Look, I don't know the address to this fancy mansion! If I did I wouldn't have been walking the OPPOSITE DIRECTION."

Lance just sighs and stands, "Okay, I'm done... I'm gonna go take a shower and rethink tonight."
