Unstable {VLD AU Multiship}

Chapter 1

"shit! I'm so sorry --" Keith said while accidentally spilling his food at the familiar face, cutting himself off, flustered unwillingly. "I recognize you from somewhere." Keith added while stepping out of the long line following the food truck. "Do you just happen to go by the name Lance?"

"Yeah... Lance McClain... Do you go to Saddleback?" Lance added letting his curiosity get the better of him. Lance now flustered (mostly out of embarrassment) "Sorry for getting in your way, wanna come chill with a few of my friends, we're towards the west side of the beach, cya round, wait... I never picked up a name." Lance then added 

"Oh, sorry, I'm Keith, K-Keith Kogane." Keith added. He had been seriously embarrassed at the fact that he spilled his food on this 'Lance McClain' dude that he somehow recognized from school. "Oh... and sorry about the food,-" Keith tried to add meanwhile he got cut off by the tan boy.

"No, its cool. Don't worry, we're going into the water soon." Lance said with a few simple hand gestures. "Hey, I have some friends down by the west side of the beach, you can come, we have a bright blue umbrella, it's pretty vibrant so you should be able to find us." Lance laughed as he ran off.

Keith wasn't sure what decision he was going to make. He was debating on either staying all alone on the beach listening to MCR, or making potential new friends. Keith was perplexed. He enjoyed having time to himself, time to think. Keith also had never been the type to really, 'make friends easily' so he wanted to add to the friendships he already has. (which wasn't many). 

Keith decided. He was going. He ran towards the west side of the beach, where his stuff already was and walked near the water, ankle deep, the water tickled, he then saw the bright blue umbrella. He saw two other people joined around Lance. Keith walked up to the umbrella and awkwardly tapped Lance on the shoulder, as most people would when getting someones attention without any verbal action. 

Lance turned around towards Keith, "Oh, hey Keith! You can set your stuff out next to mine. Just don't blast music or blow sand, it's really annoying." Lance was obviously trying to be nice in a non flirtatious way. But he gave Keith this smirk that made Keith's face a light shade of red. "So, Keith, these are my friends Pidge and Hunk."

The slightly younger girl immediately replied with "Yo, I'm Pidge." She was wearing a green one-piece swim suit. She looked around 5' tall and had round glasses, resembling 'mad scientist glasses' she had a warming smile on her face, almost anyone would love to be greeted with. 

"Hello!" a voice spat out from towards the shore, walking towards was a slightly larger boy, around Lance's age. "I'm Hunk!" he was wearing yellow swim trunks, his hair was drenched, from the ocean water obviously. He had the same smile as Pidge, something that can easily light up a room. 

"I'm Keith... I-I'm the person who accidentally spilled stuff on Lance..." Keith said clearly embarrassed. Keith was staring down at his feet, which were curling in towards him. He looked ashamed towards the others. The others looked at Lance for reassurance. Lance nodded.

"Don't worry, man. It's fine." Lance reassured Keith. Still with the unwanted flirtatious grin. Lance just couldn't help smiling at Keith. To Lance, Keith seemed like an introvert, from passing in the halls of Saddleback he seemed not to hang around anyone, or to just not walk around confidently.  "How about we go to the water. That'll be fun! Come on!"

The entire group followed. They messed around in the water for a while. Maybe about thirty minutes. Before just out of great fun, Lance splashed Keith in the face. They laughed until Keith and Lance were continuously splashing each other playfully, not noticing that Hunk and Pidge had slowly backed out of the water.

"They're canon." Pidge said smirking towards Hunk. Pidge was obviously talking about Keith and Lance in a relationship. "I watch way too much anime"

"What do you mean by 'canon" Hunk questioned looking down at Pidge. 

"I mean they'd make a great couple. They're so perfect if I say so myself" Pidge said as she Looked up at Keith, tilting her glasses up with a cheeky eyebrow raise.

"Pidge. I wouldn't go there just yet. I mean, remember what happened with Lances last relationship?" Hunk added nervously scratching the back of his neck hoping that Keith and Lance wouldn't come out any time soon. 

Pidge was concerned, "How could Lance recover from 

~to Keith and Lance~

Keith and Lance were giggling in around hip depth in water. They were splashing each other until they both noticed that Hunk and Pidge were out of the water, laughing at them from afar. Keith and Lance both rushed as fast as they could against the current of the water. 

"What were you guys doing over there." Pidge smirked and glanced back and fourth from Keith to Lance. Pidge then broke into immediate laughter and whispered to Lance "You guys are so canon." then laughed more. Forcing Lance into laughter. Lance then remembered what canon meant and turned a light shade of red, hardly noticeable through his tan skin. 

Keith had no idea what the hell was going on. He didn't know what canon meant. He didn't understand why Lance was laughing-and then stopped. He was all around confused, so he just went and sat down with the stuff. He put an earbud in and began to play 'Panic! at the Disco' songs  through them. 

Lance walked over and remarked, "Sorry Keith, my friends are insane. But sometimes they make up for it, Pidge is an all around meme lord." This sparked a laugh from Keith. "Hunk, he's the best chef you'll ever meet, another thing to note about Pidge: she watches WAY too much anime, and she'll make sure to find parings in every corner." Keith and Lance noticed that it was getting dark and exchanged numbers. 

"Cya round' guys. Thanks for letting me 'chill' with you guys." Keith remarked. It wasn't chilling, it was Keith being flustered by Lance for 4 hours.
