Web of Sins

Stripper!Lance AU. It was supposed to be an experimental trip to a nearby gay strip club to relieve stress; Keith never intended for his college student life to suddenly include the attraction of the club's most popular stripper. He couldn't complain, though - Lance was the very definition of beauty, whether it be the way his giggles lit up Keith's face, or the elegance he portrayed while dancing against a pole. Every bit of him was beautiful...

...or, at least, that's how he seemed at first glance. But when a dark past relationship of Lance's comes haunting them, Keith ends up drawn deeper and deeper into a web of sins and tragedies that neither of them can escape... Not without each other, that is. But is it possible for them to overcome a manipulative psychopath, or will Lance's past demons cost them their love, or worse, their lives?

WARNING: This fic starts out relatively light-hearted and cute, but if you didn't look at the tags(you should ALWAYS look at the tags), let me warn you now that stuff will get significantly darker, eventually. I promise that none of the dark stuff is ever glorified; this is not a kinky story. This is a story of two boys trying to overcome the dark past, together.
