It had been a full year, a full year that Shiro never saw the light of earth, nor the smile of his beloved. That's what kept him surviving the year in Zarkon's prison, Keith.

It was pitch black wherever Shiro looked. Surrounded by the unknown. Shiro felt a hand slide against his neck and gasped turning his head to see himself staring back at himself with glowing bright eyes. Shiro felt fear grip his being as he stared into his dark self."You won't escape from me, Shirogane Takashi." He spoke as he leaned in whispering by Shiro's ear."You never will~"

Shiro's eyes shot open and immediately sat up in a cold sweat. He panted heavily as he held his head with his hands. His eyes wide. It took him a few minutes to adjust to his surroundings."...Where am I?.." He noticed clothing folded and set on a chair at his bedside. He stood up steadily from the bed and got dressed.

He stared at the prison clothing he was forced to wear in the galra prison, something he didn't want to remember, even if he could it was all a blur. He looked down at his arm that was no longer flesh and bone."...Wha.." he didn't understand. He gulped thickly feeling his heart pound against his chest, his thoughts in a jumble. He closed his eyes and balled his hands into fists. Right now he told himself to focus on something other than his prosthetic arm.

He opened his eyes and left the room. He saw three people in the living room sleeping. He decided not to disturb them and left the house. He needed some fresh air and a space to clear his head. He needed calm and peace. As he walked along the dirt ground, he saw a boy standing, looking at the sunrise. Shiro approached him cautiously. The more he got closer, the more recognizable he became.

"Keith?..." He asked. Shiro saw as the boy turned on his heel with an angry expression and balled up hands. Shiro braced himself when the boy was about to strike him in the cheek. Suddenly he stopped just a hair away from punching Shiro square in the face. Shiro saw underneath that angry expression was pain, sadness and hurt. Shiro could see it in his eyes. The tears slipped from his cheeks."...Keith.." Shiro softly spoke as he held Keith's fist.

Shiro brought Keith into an embrace, it was no surprise to Shiro that Keith did not resist. Keith used his free hand to grip onto shiros shirt."I knew you weren't dead. I didn't believe anyone. I knew deep in my gut you were alive." Shiro tilted up Keith's chin."You know me to well..You kept me alive, the image of you kept me fighting." Keith pulled closer and brushed his lips again shiros.

Without hesitation Shiro gave this kiss both him and Keith waited so long for. It was deep and full of love as well as a burning passion. Both Shiro and Keith seared into the kiss. It was hot and needing. They both gave in to their desires. After a long exchange of kisses they pulled apart only mere inches. Shiro rested his forehead against Keith's. Both panting from the intensity.

"I missed you." Keith spoke after catching his breath."I missed you too." Shiro muttered as he stroked Keith's hair with his galra hand. Suddenly Shiro stopped and pulled it away from Keith's head. Shiro was afraid of what it could do. Of the possibility of it hurting his loved one. Keith could see the fear in shiro's gray eyes. Shiros eyes were wide and afraid. Keith hugged him."Shiro..Its okay. I'm here." He spoke to him as he rubbed shiros back.

It took a while before Shiro calmed down. Eventually he did."Sorry...I just..I don't want to hurt you..You mean so much to me Keith.." as Shiro spoke Keith held his cybernetic hand in his flesh one."It'll be okay, you'll learn how to control it. I'm sure you will." Shiro felt his heart pound against his chest."..Y-Yea your right..I'll do the best I can." Keith smiled and continued to hold his hand."It's good to have you back." Shiro smiled in return."It's good to be back."

"Do you remember what happened?" Shiro shook his head side to side."No..It's all a blur..how did you know to come find me?" Keith let go of shiros hand."You should come see this." Keith said as he started to head back to the hut he lived in. Shiro followed him and before going inside the room, Shiro pulled Keith into another hug and kissed the back of his neck."...Keith..I never got to tell you after I left earth...I love you." He muttered against his skin. Keith kissed the side of shiros head."I love you too Shiro." They smiled to each other in content before going inside. This point onward they would be facing what lies ahead together.
