Summary
It would only be a matter of time before Langa noticed he was acting weird and confronted him about it. What was Reki supposed to do then? What could he say that would make sense? More sense than "yeah, sorry, man, I might have fallen a teeny-tiny bit in love with you"?
He froze. In love? No, no, nonono, that couldn’t be it. Admiration, friendship, and well, some type of crush, maybe, since Langa was so talented, and cool and always knew exactly what to say to make Reki feel all warm inside, but in love? A sequence from the video flowed into Reki’s mind; when Langa had started smiling, the pink evening light coloring his hair purple, and how his eyes had glittered, the way they always did when something made him truly happy or excited... Reki whimpered into his hands and squirmed, folding in on himself on the bed.
Damn it, damn it, damn it, DAMN IT.
He was so fucking screwed.
(Or in which Reki finds himself in a most surprising situation; on a paradise island with all his friends - travel and accommodation paid in full by his least favorite person. At least the man in question isn't with them. The holiday is challenging enough as Reki tries to figure out his confusing feelings for Langa.)

Summary
Reki’s only known Langa for a few months, but it feels like he’s known him forever. It comes with the territory of spending almost all of their waking hours together. Less than a year of friendship and there are already countless undeniable, unspoken truths between them. Like the way Reki can see what Langa needs and find a solution without him having to ask. Or the fact that Langa would put himself in harm’s way to protect Reki, over and over again, without hesitation.
But the grin on Langa’s face falters a bit at the challenge, his eyes soften with a tinge of something Reki can’t place, and his face goes completely pink. That’s confusing. Reki tries and fails to shove away the feeling of his stomach prickling at the sight of it.

Reki is in denial. Langa is oblivious. They're both pining harder than either of them can imagine.

Summary
Staring at the blaring text from Reki, Langa was completely at a loss for what to say. How could he just pretend like everything was normal after this?
He decided to forgo responding altogether and start getting ready for the day. Maybe after changing into a real outfit and brushing his teeth he’d feel a little bit more human. Surely it was only just a dream, and by the time he had to face Reki, he wouldn’t even be thinking about the part where they kissed.
He was thinking about it. The two of them stood on the street just outside Langa’s place, boards in hand, and Langa was thinking about the fact that he had just kissed his best friend in his dream last night.

or, Reki and Langa both have separate dreams about kissing each other, forcing them to confront their true feelings

Summary
Reki doesn't know the first thing about kissing and after a bit of light-hearted taunting, gets the idea to practice with Langa. They're best friends, aren't they? So they should help each other out. Boy lips couldn't be that different from girl lips anyway. Langa, meanwhile, knows this isn't a good idea. Yet, if having Reki to himself is ultimately impossible, then might as well take what he can get--even if it is going to be painful in the end.
Their experimentation starts out innocently enough, but with curiosity and raging hormones at play, they might be too late by the time they go too far.
