Training was like hell today. Allura barking about every time anyone messed up. She kept yelling at him over and over again. Telling him what he did wrong, Lance didn't need that today. He had tried to work hard and be better but, nothing was ever good enough for her. Nothing he ever did was good enough for people. Especially one thing he never told anyone since he was 15. Since before he joined the garrison. Not even Hunk knew about it. Which was hard to keep that way.
"Now as I was saying, you have to focus more Lance. You can flirt with who's ever you want later just focus on what's important to the galaxy, Voltron. If you don't care fine. Just remembered that may get everyone you know killed." Allura snapped. She had enough of Lance's crap. Enough of the flirting. Enough of the relaxing when he was supposed to be working. Enough of barely working while training. Just enough of Lance.
"Allura I'm trying." Lance mumbled. He didn't wanna do this again. This used to happen all the time when people found out about his secrets. Each one of them.
"Trying isn't good enough! Especially if it's coming from you!" She snapped spinning around. Her eyes were now glaring at him. Luckily the rest of the crew wasn't there to hear any of this. If they had been Lance was pretty sure he would have died from embarrassment.
Lance gulped down what little pride he had left. What little bit of him that was telling him to fight her or argue back. To do anything to stop what she was saying.
"I promise I'll try harder." Lance sighed. His chest was killing him. It felt like his chest was being squeezed until it was going to pop open spilling his guts on the floor and all over Allura. He had to go to his room soon.
"Good. Now you may return to your room. You'll need to sleep for training if you can even do that." Allura mumbled the last part. Lance still heard it though. The best part was that was the exact point he felt his heart shatter. Well, at least that's what it felt like happened other than the air slowly being squeezed out of him.
"Will do." Lance stated before bolting out of the room. He couldn't stay in there for another minute. He new that if he stayed there for another second he was going to either cry or drop dead.
This left Allura alone for a while. She just stood there for a second before turning to leave. While trying to leave she tripped over Lance's helmet. She let out an Altean swear word fall out of her mouth. The door behind her opened to reveal Keith. She turned her head and glared at him.
"You know if you want me to leave-" He didn't even finish his sentence before Allura was back on her feet with a happy smile on her face. The same creepy happy smile she wore before she blew up and started yelling at people.
"No, stay! Stay! It's fine!" Allura smiled. Kieth the kinda doubted that.
"It's just I tripped over Lance's stupid helmet!" Allura snapped holding the helmet up in the air. It was like she was trying to destroy it with her eyes. Not eye beams like super man had or anything. Just her eyes.
"Why don't I just go run that to him while you go to bed?" Keith stated looking at her. Last time she looked as mad as this she ended up yelling at someone for hours on end. Hours! Shiro didn't care though. He was half way asleep during that time any ways.
"That would be nice. I haven't gone to bed early in who knows how long." Allura sighed handing him the blue helmet. She left the room so quickly that Keith was pretty sure she was the flash.
"I could tell." Keith mumbled as he stood in place looking at the helmet.
He looked directly into where Lance's beautiful eyes would be. His beautiful light blue eyes. The eyes that made Keith's heart speed up every time he looked in them. Every time he even glanced at them. Every time he thought about him. Which probably explained why he was in love with him.
Keith snapped out of his thoughts quickly. He didn't wanna think about any of this. All he wanted to do was go the Lance's room and give him his helmet. That was all he had to do. All he wanted to do. The only thing he thought he wanted to do. He ignored these thoughts as he walked down the hallway to Lance's room.
Soon he stood outside the door holding his wrist out to knock. His wrist was inches away from hitting the door. Just inches. A few inches. All he had to do was knock. That was all. Yet, he didn't do it.
Something in his head kept telling him not to do it. It told him that if he went in there he would embarrass himself around his crush again. Like what he used to do when he was super younger. Yet, his heart told him to go in there. To go see the boy that made him feels so happy. The boy who made him feel like he could do anything. Anything at all.
Keith gulped as he opened the door instead of knocking as well. It seemed like a good idea at the time. That is until he saw the room was completely pitch black. The only source of light was all around the room but so dark that Keith could only see the co,our black but, could make out shaped. Meanwhile Lance was standing in front of. A mirror.Keith waited until the door closed behind to speak.
"Hey Lance, you left your helmet in the-" Keith stopped looking forward as Lance turned to look at him. Lance was naked. Seeing this Keith dropped Lance's helmet. This also caused Lance to stare into Keith's bright purple eyes.
Both boy's looked at each other. Unlike Keith's eyes, Lance's were blood shot red from him crying for a while and were looking right into Keith's eyes. Meanwhile Keith's eyes were on at Lance's chest. If his eyes weren't quitting on him and that he wasn't see things. Cause if he wasn't that meant one thing.
Lance McClain had breasts. Like tinier ones a girl would have and it was right in front of Keith.
There were so many things wrong with this. For starters this wasn't how Keith imagined seeing Lance top less for the first time left. Secondly, this isn't how anyone pictures seeing their crush, it almost felt like he was break some boundaries. They also definitely don't wear underwear that belong to the female gender without any issue. It wasn't normal. Unless, that is Lance was-
"Holy shit you're trans." Keith blurted out. Lance looked terrified. So god damn terrified. It looked like he was looking someone standing over him with a knife and was about to stab him. He looked like he was staring death in the face.
Lance just dropped to his knees and buried his face in his hands. He curled up with his knees snuggled into his chest covering those damn lumps that were there. Keith was going to tell everyone. They were all going to make fun of him. It's what kids had done for years. That's why he used to wish for death. Why he tried to die on is own terms by himself! The worst part was he never died. Every time he tried to die someone would save him.
Firsts, it was his mother. She just thought she grabbed her son from walking out in front of a bus by accident. The women never knew what he had meant to do. Next, his oldest sister saved him from jumping off a cliff. His sister just thought he was trying to go cliff diving. The same thing happen six other times where his family and old friends save him. That is until he tried to jump of the schools roof top during the last year of high school when he actually looked like a male. The person who went up there to save him was none other than Hunk. Afterwords he got help and made a new friend.
Life was sorta good afterwards, well at least for a while. That is until other kids picked on him in high school. Things got worse from there. His depression had a larger affect on him. He kept wanting to die daily. Nothing he ever did was good enough to live in his eyes. That is until he was excepted into the garrison. It went back to being better until they went to space. You cane probably guess what happened from there.
All he could think of was to drop down as all these thoughts and memories came back to him. All of them. What the hell was he supposed to say? What was he supposed to do? All he could do was panic internally as he just sat on his knees fighting back tears as though about self damaging words after thought came to his mind.
"Tell everyone. Insult me all you want. I don't care what you think of me anymore." Lance sniffed before breaking down. He started full on sobbing as his eyes only glanced at the binder that was laying next to his feet. Lance was ready for Keith to say anything mean. Some to make fun of him. Hurt him. He didn't expect anything else.
Which made sense as to why he jumped a bit when he felt Keith hug him. Keith just hugged his rival tightly. He of all people shouldn't be judging someone for who they are or their past. After all he was picked on after he came out as a gay.
Lance let out another loud sob as his body shook a bit in Keith's arms. He then began brace himself for Keith trying to hit him. Or trying to slap him. Or hurt him any way possible now. Yet, all Keith did was hug him while trying to comfort him.
"I'm not gonna make fun of you." Keith told him. Lance just continued sobbing as he began to snuggle into Keith's grip while his legs covered his boobs. Keith began rubbing circles on his back in order to try to clam Lance down.
"And if anyone does, tell me and I'll kick their ass." Keith smiled. Lance held Keith's shoulders as he looked at his face. Lance then began laughing a bit before hugging Keith back tightly. While hugging him Lance just went to silently sobbing. Meanwhile Keith was only wondering one thing and one thing only.
"Is it possible to be there for Lance even more then what he's been there for all of us so far?"Here's one of my fave pics of this idea:
