"These are some good tacos", Lotor admired.
The three boys munched hungrily on their food.

The busboy, a cocky little teenager, had pulled up a chair and was talking to them.

"So you're dating, eh?"

Lance nodded, and to Keith's embarrassment he held up their entwined hands proudly.

"You might want to be careful."
Fernando, the oldest sibling in the restaurant, warned darkly.
"There's a lot of hateful stuff going around."

Lotor quietly lowered his head. 
Astrid walked by and hugged him.
"It's gonna be okay, honey. Just stay strong."

"Where the hell are you going?", Fernando retorted.

"My friend Marina is waiting for me! See you guys later!"

The busboy smirked at Fernando.
"Look at who's doing an extra shift to cover her?"

Lance chuckled.
"Poor Fernando. You can't catch a break can you?"

The waiter furrowed his eyebrows in exasperation.
"Astrid's a nightmare sometimes."

"KION!"

The busboy stood up at the sound of a yelling girl from the kitchen.

"I'M COMING, SOPHIA, QUIT YOUR BITCHING!"

Lotor stood up.

Keith was about to get up with him, but Lotor sat him back down.

"I just need some fresh air."

The platinum-haired boy took a step outside, into the quiet atmosphere of the parking lot.

He turned his eyes to the sky, and let his fingers linger into the air.

"Miss you, Asher."

"Astrid can be a nightmare sometimes"

I crack myself up.

Anyhoo, I'm liking Lotor in this so far. I think I'll keep him as an important side character :3
