Lance's POV (again? Why am I like this?)

I was walking down a random hallway when I heard light crying (no it's not a ship this time, just some random idea I had) I got slightly worried,  and began walking towards the crying. I neared Allura's bedroom door,  and hesitated. i knew how moody Allura could be, and am slightly scared. Despite this, I knocked, and heard Allura mumble something before getting up. i backed away from the door a bit to give the Altean space when she opened the door.

"Lance? What do you want?" she mumbled with a little bit of anger in her tone. I smiled lightly, and told her why I was here.

"I heard crying, and I wanted to help." I said politely, holding my arms up in a gesture saying 'hug?' she walked into my arms and began to shake lightly, tears going down her face.

"I just miss Altea so much... I wish it wasn't destroyed..." I released one of my arms from around her shoulders and led her back inside her room, closing the door behind us. I sat her on her bed and kneeled in front of her.

"hey, I know how much you miss Altea. I honestly wish I knew just how much you miss it, but I at least know a little of your pain... I miss Earth." I whispered,  rubbing her back. She looked up at me with tears in her eyes.  I smiled at her and gave her another quick hug.

"If you want to talk about it again sometime, I'm all ears." I said, with a wider smile on his face. I began to leave,  but was interrupted.

"hey, Lance?" I turned around and gave her a questioning look.

"You had multiple sisters, correct?" I nodded in confirmation, a sad smile on my face.

"could you braid my hair, if you know how?" I nodded again and walked over to her,  sitting behind her on her bed and began working.

Which is what lead to regular meetings. Every week we would meet up in her room and just talk and just hang out. I would braid her hair and she would paint my nails. We would talk about random things, such as our homesickness or crushes we had on certain people. Luckily, we had eyes on different people.

"I mean, I know I say a lot about how much I hate his mullet, but I actually kinda wanna know what it feels like. Is it soft??" I rant at her while she paints my nails.

"I know how you feel. I wanna see how soft Shiro's piece of white hair is. I mean,  it just looks adorable!!" she complains as she flawlessly paints my nails. I nod vigorously. She chuckles and continues her painting.

We relax for a little while, before she finishes my nails. I look at them for a second, before I realise how much they remind me of something.

"These remind me of keith's eyes!" I exclaim. She nods, and points out that she did that on purpose.

"it's not nearly as pretty as his eyes, though. His eyes are soooo pretty!" I say, beaming. She smiles, and nods. I hug her briefly, and once I let go I tell her to turn around. She obeys, and I smile.

"since you did something that kind, I will do a fishtail braid, it's a somewhat difficult braid on earth." she raised her shoulders, and I can tell she's smiling brightly.

"thank you, Lance!" she says fairly loudly. I chuckle, and hum in confirmation. I begin the braid and smile, happy I could do something like this for the princess. She doesn't cry anymore, and when she does, I'm usually there to help her. I have always thought I would be a good friend to help someone in this situation.

The End!!

I wanted to do something that didn't involve a ship getting together, just pure friendship, and I'm happy with how it turned out.
