There was no way Kei was sleeping tonight.
The young man lay in his bed, his dark eyes locked on the ceiling where his fan turned lazily, too lazily for the amount of heat gathering under his collar. He needed to be doing something. The biggest exam of his second year of university was tomorrow, and he'd be damned if he hadn't studied, but... he couldn't help the racing thoughts in his mind. If he fucked this up, his parents would disown him--if he didn't sleep, he would fuck this up. He knew how that went. He couldn't help it if he was a horrible test taker! He always had been, all throughout junior high and high school, though he still managed to pull through with back-breaking amounts of extra credit, resenting his younger brother who always seemed to breeze through things with ease.
His younger brother seemed to excel at most things. It wouldn't be as bad, if Kei wasn't the first son, and therefore supposed to excel at pretty much everything. His eyes flicked to the window, curtains drawn, but street lights still visible from the other side, glowing softly through the beige fabric. He sighed through his nose, bringing his hands up to rub his face, a wave of anxiety bringing tears to his eyes. A fuckup, and a crybaby? He was really hitting all the marks tonight. Deciding getting his feelings out alone in his room was better than choking on tears, Kei pushed himself up and sat on the floor near his bed, pressing his back to the mattress and burying his face in his knees.
