Klance oneshots

The bookstore (11/12)

Keith seemed to be in a great mood when we left his house. He was telling me about this new book he was reading and he was honestly excited to talk to me about it. I decided I was definitely going to read it too so we could have more conversations like that.

"Can we talk about last night?" I asked Keith over lunchtime.
"Can we talk about why were you in my room this morning?" He asked, avoiding my request.
"I left home early by mistake, that's your fault, I had breakfast at the coffee shop near your place and I thought I could pick you up. Shiro asked me to come upstairs and wake you up."
"How can that possibly be my fault?" He took another bite of his sandwich.
"It is" I replied. "You can't kiss me and expect my brain to continue functioning after."
"Lance, seriously, just forget that happened. Plus, you moved your face, I was aiming for your cheek."
I made sure no one else could hear me.
"Can't I just get up right now and kiss you? I really want to, Keith" I confessed, blushing deeply.
I could tell Keith wasn't expecting that, but I waited for some kind of confirmation. I never got it.
"Lance," he said again "I can't, okay? I'm sorry, but please understand it."
"Okay, but please explain why you were torturing me this morning" I said, laughing, trying to lighten the mood.
"I was just having some fun at your expense, I had never seen you blush that much" he laughed too.
"So you knew I was gonna show up and you decided to work out and sleep shirtless?"
"Woah, no, perv" Keith punched my shoulder.
"You sure?" I wondered.
"Again: perv. I always sleep shirtless."
"Can I..." I started, but Keith interrupted me.
"No"
"...get a hug?"
"Sure, but not here, I don't want James to bother us. I don't have class now, wanna go for a walk?"
He was right, James was looking at us. I smiled.
"Sure."

We were outside, about to sit down on the grass when I tripped over my own feet and fell. I tried to grab Keith's arm but it caught him by surprise and he couldn't catch me on time, so we both fell. We started laughing loudly because the situation was truly ridiculous. As soon as I noticed he was holding me in his arms I stopped laughing.
He looked at me directly in the eyes and I couldn't stop looking at his either, he was gonna drive me crazy. Eventually I glanced at his lips. My heart skipped a beat.
"Lance..." he mumbled.
And I couldn't take it anymore. I forgot everything and I kissed him softly. I had been wanting this for longer than I realized.
He placed a hand on the back of my neck and kissed me back.
Finally, I thought. A proper kiss.
He wasn't backing away, he kept kissing me, lips parted, barely stopping to breathe. His hand went up my chest and, in the heat of the moment, I bit his lower lip. A low sound escaped my throat when Keith bit me back. It was like he wanted me to know he was calling the shots, like that morning in his room. I didn't have any complaints.
Then, suddenly, he stopped.
"I need some time for myself, I need to think about... this" he told me. He turned away and left, not allowing me to walk him to class.
And I stood there, like an idiot, waiting for him to come back and cradle me again.
