Lances pov
Keith had been doing something with shiro. Then shiro came back and Keith didn't.
" where is Keith?" I ask him. He does respond. That isn't like shiro. " shiro, where is Keith," I ask him again louder.
I look around the castle for hours. He is know where. I check the art room and his bedroom several times. He isn't there.
Finally I spot him. He slips out the black lions hanger. He looks guilty, like he just committed a crime. His galra ears are visible. That's odd.
"Hey Keith!" I yell to get his attention. He jumps as though I startled him. He pulls the hood of his jacket up and starts walking toward me. He looks at his feet the entire time.
" hey lance," Keith says.
" what where you doing?" I ask.Emedently I know I should not have come on so strong. Keith tenses and goes purple. Full galra.
It was normal for me to feel him. I just knew when he was tense or his emotions where out of control. I hadn't told anyone.
" just thinking," he tells me.
" you know you can think with me," I say. That was to strong.
" I know lance. I just ... never mind" Keith says. I speed up a little and start walking backward so I can look Keith in the eyes. His face is splotchy and his nose is runny. He is been crying. I stop walking. This hug that I give him is different than any hug I've given. He breaks down in my arms. I just hold him.
