Flame ||Klance|| (transgender au)

15.keith

The hospital has been weird but overall the other kids freak me out so I've done my best to stay away from them. I've in general not wanted to do anything. I feel ashamed and the other kids stare at me like a freak because of my burns.

They had expected me to say something like I was depressed because of being transgender but that really wasn't the case. Even if I wasn't transgender I'd still feel depressed. Sure being transgender doesn't help because of dysphoria but that's not the whole problem.

I learned pretty quickly though, that visiting hours were the best part of the day because of Lance and that if you did what they said you got to leave earlier. Yet when a week went by and I still wasn't out I looked at one of the nurses and asked why and they said I still seemed sad. That I had to set a goal so I was less sad.

So that's what I tried doing but I couldn't think of things that made me happy. Lance made me happy but he wasn't permanent and that's too much pressure to put on one person.

So I thought more and I eventually came to a conclusion. I talked with my doctor on ways to get better and a strategy so I wouldn't hurt myself again.

I met a girl in the ward though and she was strange to say the least.

Her name was Allura and she told me that she didn't approve of me hurting myself but she wanted to be kind. We did end up becoming friends somehow and he secretly gave me her phone number even we weren't aloud to give them out.

I spent almost two weeks in there and when I was out I came home crying. Because when I came home my foster family, and all my friends were there to celebrate that I was getting better.

They made me a cake and after celebrating Lance stayed and cuddled me and gave me plenty of kisses.

"I love you guys," I said smiling.

"We love you Keith," he smiled back.

He slept with me that night. We did it so anything past cuddling and making out and it felt right. Everything was in place and I had the best boyfriend in the universe.

The next morning, Shiro woke me up.

"Keith? I need to ask you something," Shiro shook me.

I groaned an looked at him, "5 more minutes."

"It's 12 in the afternoon Keith," he chuckled and I lazily got up.

"What do you want?" I asked not happy.

"Well you know how me and Matt are getting married in 5 months now?"

"Yea?"

"Well," Shiro took a deep breath, "I want you to be my best man, and I know it's early to tell you but I know you'd rather know earlier than later."

"Really?" I look at him, "I'll be your best man."

"Also do you think it would be inappropriate for Pidge to be a flower girl."

I chuckled, "no she is like 14 now isn't she?"

"Yea just turned 14," Shiro said still unsure.

"Ask her, but honestly I think she would be delighted, plus she's small and adorable."

"Good point," Shiro said, "now get your boyfriend up me and Matt made breakfast."
