The Boy of His Dreams

Keith had always been a quiet boy, always labeled as 'the loner' or 'emo' due to his silent tendencies. Looking through the crowd, Keith would just be another face begging for attention. Dark clothes, long hair, always wearing headphones, and deaf to the world around him. Keith is just another guy, a meaningless face in the crowd.

Due to being so silent, almost hostile at times, no one- scratch that. Shiro knows about his dreams. No not just his dreams to go to, but his literal dreams. Keith wasn't someone that you'd call 'a dreamer', but he had strange dreams. They were so vivid, that he'd almost call them memories. He didn't tell Shiro about all of his 'dreams', but he told Shiro of what he could.

In his dreams, there were four others, no- six others most of the time, but only one stood out mire than the other is faces. It was a boy that Keith swore he could never make up with his own imagination. Tan, brown skin that had to be natural, but must've come from many days in the sun, mocha brown hair that had the slightest bit of length in the back, dazzling blue eyes that Keith swore had the essence of the ocean, and he was lanky, almost as tall as Shiro.

Keith had developed a bit of a crush on this boy that appeared in his dreams. Not that he'd ever tell Shiro, but.. he had a feeling that his brother knew.

But, even in his dreams, Keith was ignored. Just like everyone else. Well, everyone that wasn't Matt or Shiro. So Keith could only let it be in his dreams. It was just his subconscious trying to comfort him in his loneliness, right? That's what Keith had convinced himself for the past two years as he went into his Junior year of high school. He started the year off as normal: alone, silent, and somewhat aggressive.

Until, about halfway through the year, it seemed that most of his classes had gained a new face, one that Keith knew all too well. It couldn't be the same boy, could it?
