Kevin approached the darkened front door of his house, his nerves making him scared of every sound he heard.
He'd woken up around half an hour prior, in the warm backseat of a car, cuddled up to a cute boy.
While that was nice and all, he'd nearly pissed himself in fear upon realizing that it had already become dark outside.
After a fumbled, awkward goodbye, he'd practically ran to his house, hoping he wouldn't be killed on the spot when he got home.
He fumbled with his house keys, unlocking the door, then slowly pushed it open, slipping through as silently as possible.
"Kevin!" a woman's voice shouted from within the house, making him wince. Dammit, he'd been caught.
Giving up, he shut the door normally, walking into the kitchen from where he'd been called.
Kevin's mother stood at the counter, arms crossed. She was a fair amount shorter than her son, but still a scary woman when when she desired to be.
"Why are you so late, kid?" she interrogated, looking more worried than mad.
"Didn't you get my text?" Kevin lied on the spot. He'd become quite good at doing so after years of practice. "I went over to Eric's to finish up a project."
The mom sighed, leaning against a counter. "Alright. Just... call me or something next time, okay?" she reasoned, unknowingly making Kevin feel a slight bit guilty.
"Okay. Sorry mom," he said in reply. She only gave him a sympathetic look, gesturing that he could go off and do what he wanted.
Kevin scurried off to his room, thankful that his mom hadn't been mad about it.
He shut his door and immediately ran over to his bed, jumping on it.
As if on autopilot, he whipped out his phone, opening his text messages and sending a spam of letters to the first contact on the list.

Seen

Kevin stared at his phone screen for a moment, rereading over the dark words and smiling to himself.
Yeah, he knew he was crushing hard. Jacob made it pretty damn easy to do.
Kevin set his phone down, sitting up and glancing at his closet. He knew he still had to change clothes and get ready before he went to bed, yet all he wanted to do was get under the sheets and pass out immediately.
Tomorrow was the last day of the week, and Kevin was glad that all was going well so far. That is, if you ignored his little (huge) sexuality crisis.
He contemplated taking the test Jacob recommended for a moment. Nah, he could always do it in the morning.
For now, he stood up, lazily wandering over to his bathroom and flicking the lights on.
He knew he wouldn't be sleeping well tonight anyways.
