-Keith's POV-
Me and Pidge watched as Allura and Lance walked off holding each others hand. Allura gently placed a kiss on Lance's cheek and she giggled. I wanted Lance. Me and Pidge had to watch and smile so they didn't get supicious of us. I needed Lance. But Allura stole him from me. I knew he was straight. I broke first. I started to tremble then I dropped onto the floor, crying.  
"Keith!" Pidge shouted and he dropped to his knees beside me. He ran his hand through my hair to try and calm me down. But that's what Lance would do to calm me down so it just made it worse. He started to cry next to me and I tried to comfort him. After awhile, I spoke.  
"I-I'm gonna go to m...my dorm..." I managed to say between tears. Pidge didn't say anything. He just nodded.  
It's been weeks since that happened. I put my headphones in, turned on music, and walked to the dorms. I tried to hold a smile on my face, but I couldn't so I just kept that frown on the whole time. That's how it's been lately and the others are noticing it. I seem to smile less and laugh less now. I saw Lance waving bye to Allura as she left with Coron and Shiro. He must of seen me because he started to walk towards me. 'I won't be able to hold a conversation with him...' I thought as I felt myself tear up, 'I should run, but that would make him confused.'
"Keith!" He shouted as he ran over to me.  
"H-Hi, Lance," I said and attempted to smile, but did it work? No.  
"What's wrong?" He asked.  
I stayed silent. 
"Keith, what's wrong?" He asked again.   I could feel myself start to cry so I looked down a bit and to the side to avoid eye contact. I felt his hand come towards my face to wipe my tears away. I jerked back once his hand touched my face.  
"Keith, you're crying!" He exclaimed.  
"I know..." I said.  
"Why?" He asked. 
"Because y-you..." I stammered out and then I began to shout, "b-because you're with Allura and I wanted to be with you! But you're straight and you would never date a loser like me!" 
"Keith..." He said.  
"What?" I said as tears started streaming down my face.  
"I like you too."
