Star Gazers (Keith X Reader)

Chapter 6

I'm back! Sorry for the super long wait. (Why do I suck at updating so much????) So, anyways, I hope you enjoy another chapter of Star Gazers!

Recap:

"Yeah, this last month has been crazy."

There was a brief moment of silence.

"Want to go to the training room?" Keith abruptly asks.

An almost unnoticeable blush dusts your cheeks. "Sure, just let me get my gear. I'll be there in a tic!" You run off back to your room before he can reply.

When the door to your room slides closed, you lean against the frame of the door. A smile creeps up your face.

You quietly hummed your favorite tune while walking to the training room. Your holographic watch--that you always seem to be wearing--read 2:41 a.m. The eerie silence came to an end when you hear the clashing of metal on metal. A panting Keith was sparing with two of the training bots. You unsheathed your Galran sword from a black, metal scabbard that Keith got while you were imprisoned.

"I hope you haven't been waiting too long," you said with a lopsided smile while walking towards him.

A light blush dusted his cheeks. "No, it's fine. I haven't been waiting long."

"That's good. So what level should we do?" A small wave of butterflies fluttered in your stomach. You got that feeling every time you would talk to him.

"It doesn't matter, you can chose." He said avoiding your gaze.

You smirked and looked up at the ceiling, "Okay! Enter training sequence level 7." You looked back at Keith. "That should be a good warm up."

He raises a brow, "You're on."

Four training bots fall from the ceiling a circle around us. This should be fun. You think to yourself. You run up to the robot to your right and slice at it's ankle's while you slid on your side. Left leg immobile, bingo! In a crouching position you block an attack from the bot that was on your left. Leaping backwards, you grab a dagger from your boot. You glance at Keith before making your plan, he had already taken one down! Time for planning. Distract the robot on the right while using Keith as a decoy and take both my robots down.

"Hey, Keith. Catch this!" You throw the dagger towards him. Not to where it would stab him, obviously. It was actually aimed at the robot he was sparring with, piercing the bots head. The two robots in front of you turn their heads to the blackette and you take that chance to chop of both their heads. "End training sequence."

You wipe sweat off your forehead with your arm and walk forward towards Keith, scraping your shoes on the shiny, slick, white floor. "That was awe--Ah!" You trip on a robot and catapult onto Keith.

A sense of nostalgia enters your brain. He catches you, your face only inches away from his. Time seems to stop as you gaze into his purple eyes, which shine like stars. You both lean in and your lips meet.
