New Kid (Keith x Lance)

11

     Hunk was currently carrying Keith over his shoulder, waiting for Lance. It was only a few moments before Lance showed up. "What happened?" Lance asked, running over to Hunk.

     "He apparently only got a few hours of sleep last night. He ended up passing out a little while ago." Pidge said. Hunk slipped Keith off of his shoulders, and handed him to Lance. Lance sat down on a bench with Keith on his lap.

     Even though Lance and Keith had slept in the same room together, Lance didn't see Keith's face when he was sleeping. Pidge obviously took a few photos of Keith sleeping, and wrote, "My poor baby didn't get any sleep last night", before posting it to their story on Snapchat.

     Pidge also took a few pictures of Lance holding Keith, because they needed blackmail pictures, and they needed Klance proof.

     The first bell rang, signaling that students could go inside now. Lance sat outside a bit longer, before waking Keith up. "Hmm?" Keith hummed, rubbing his eyes.

     "You okay? Pidge said that you didn't sleep very well last night." Lance asked, concerned for Keith.

     "I'm fine, it's just," Keith said, trying to find words. "Kevin got a new job location, and we might have to move again." Keith said. Lance's face immediately fell.

     "Oh" Lance whispered. "We'll figure this out, I promise you." Lance assured.

     "So what you mean to say is that you're basically moving to New York?" Hunk asked.

     "Yeah. I have tomorrow, since it's the last day, and a maximum of two weeks for packing." Keith said.

     Lance was pacing around, since nobody really watched the kids that sat outside. Keith was resting his head on the table. "I remember the first time that I was living in New York. I had gotten into a fight before school had even started. Kevin was really pissed while we lived in New York." Keith groaned.

     "Maybe you could stay with one of us?" Pidge suggested.

     "Donna would immediately shut that down. Something like, 'I need to stay with my son! We need to stay together as a family' or something. It's worth a try though."

     Keith: "Hey Donna?"

     Donna: "Yes honey?"

    Keith: "I don't wanna move back to New York."

     Donna: "I know, but you'll love it there!"

     Keith: "I'm losing hope in that. You say that every time we move, and each time is living hell."

     Donna: "Then what do you propose?"

     Keith: "Pidge suggested that maybe I could stay at their house." 

     Donna: "No, you are coming with us"

     Keith: "Donna, I'm not going. I don't care if I live on the streets here, I'm not leaving."

     Donna: "Keith, you will regret that"

     Keith: "I don't care! This is the first time that I've made friends after moving, and I'm not willing to leave them behind."

     Donna: "Then your dad will need to find another job, and that isn't quite possible at the moment."

     Keith: "Then I'm moving out. I'm old enough."

     Donna: "..."

     'Donna has left this conversation'

     "Well, I sent her a few ideas before she went offline." Keith said.

     "Did she say anything?" Lance asked.

     "Nope, she just left when I mentioned moving out."

     "The offer is still up for you to stay at our houses." Pidge butted in.

     "Yeah yeah, I know. I'm not leaving Arizona just yet." Keith assured. Keith got an incoming call from Kevin, and quickly walked off to answer it.

     "Keith Akira Hanson" Kevin spat.

     "Kevin, I'm not your son. Don't treat me like it." Keith growled.

     "Keith, you are going with us" Kevin hissed.

     "No, I can move out. You aren't my father. Stop acting like I'm your personal toy that you can just order around." Keith spat, balling his hand into a fist.

     "You know what, I never liked you in this family! You were always a let down! Your mother is dead because of you." Kevin growled.

     "Don't you ever bring my mother into this you fucker! If you didn't want me, then you should have never adopted me. Some asshole you are!" Keith yelled before hanging up the phone. Keith headed back to the group, and rested his head on the table.

     Keith was well aware that Lance, Hunk, and Pidge heard the conversation with Kevin, but he didn't care at the moment. "Hey Lance, can I stay at your place tonight?" Keith asked.

     "Sure, my family would love to have you back." Lance said, giving Keith a reassuring pat, and at the moment, that was all he needed.
