Day 14 (Te amo)

So much for being a 'short epilogue.' Instead this is the second longest chapter.
Hope you enjoy.

(Day 14, 9AM)

I lay flat on my back in bed, Keith's arms wrapped around my bare chest. Keith's head moving up and down with the rhythm of my breathing. Keith's own bare muscles on his back visible, and still damp from the early morning shower.

I caressed Keith's back, letting the droplets mix with the sweat still on him. The blanket just barely covering his still half naked body underneath. Just the thought made me giddy and excited all over again.

"Fuck I love your muscles." I whispered.

Keith chuckled.
"What did you say?" He said, lifting his head.
My cheeks went red immediately.
"What? Nothing. I thought you were sleeping!"

A thin smile danced across Keith's face, and he crawled up to me slowly, our blanket draped over his lower back. Each movement was agonizingly slow, and sent a wave of desire through my body.

Keith lowered his lips to mine. And I got another taste of the strawberry lip balm that I love.
I nibbled softly at Keith's lower lip, and giggled as Keith dug a finger into my side, beginning a tickle, but Keith had mercy this time, and only did it for a moment, stopping when I reluctantly let go of his lip.

Keith dropped onto my chest, and rubbed his fingers over my skin.
"I love your giggle." He said quietly.

"I love your dumb mullet." I said through a smile.

"I love your cute freckles." Keith said swiftly.

I of course, took his swiftness as a challenge, and barked out an even quicker complement.
"I love your eyes." I said.

Keith looked up, and graced me with another gaze of his indigo ringed eyes, a smile playing on his lips, a hum thrumming in his throat like the most beautiful melody.

"Deep spiraling purple eyes, galaxy eyes.
I could get lost in those eyes forever, and never once complain." I whispered.

"I love your ocean eyes." Keith said with a hum. "I could drown in those eyes, and I wouldn't bother me at all."

I smiled wider than I thought I could. My whole face conformed to a rosy cheeked smile. "I love you, so much."

"I love you too." Keith said.
I got one last taste of the strawberry on Keith's lips, and Keith laid his head back down on my chest.

Then I remembered something. I picked up my phone, and sent a message to Pidge.

'Hey Pidge, quick question.' I messaged her.
'Yeh Loverboy?'
'What does the holo on hologram mean? Does it mean like hollow? Empty space?'
'No, it comes from a Greek word. It means the opposite. It means complete, or finished.'
'Oh....that's stupid.'
'Stupid? It's Greek!'
'Bopbopbopbop, goodbye.'

I set down the phone, and looked down to Keith's head.
'Okay, you were right.' I thought.
'And I am never going to admit it.'

"I heard that." Keith said into Lance's chest.
"What? Heard what?"
"I heard why you just thought." Keith said.
My eyes went wide.
"You, wait, I thought the effects of the pod wore off! You heard me?"
