   A small smile crossed his face as he began to talk to his boyfriend.

"Hey Keith."

"Hey.." Keith took a deep breath and looked down at the hospital bed.

"How's everyone doing." The boy in blue weakly forced out.

He stayed silent for a few seconds before replying, "Not good, they aren't taking it well.."

Earlier that weak

*A phone rings*
"Hello?"
"Yes."
"Mhmm."
*call ends*

The Cuban boy put his head between his legs and cried.

"Lance? You home? LANCE. LANCE WHAT'S WRONG."

Lance cried and cried. He didn't know how to tell his wonderful finance that he had cancer.

"K-kieth, baby" He started choking over his words. "I-I have cancer" Lance looked down when he was finished, scared of how the other boy would react.

The Cuban boy heard Keith get up.  Keith began to pace the floor untill he came to a sudden halt. He screamed a horrible ear wrenching scream.

"Why does everything good I have, have to be taken away from me." He chuckled out

Lances vision began to go dark. He started to fall over and Keith quickly caught him before he hit the floor. The last thing Lance saw was Keith's beautiful eyes then the world went black.

When Lance came back to reality he was in a baby blue hospital gown, with Keith, Shiro, Pidge, Hunk, Coran, and Allura surrounding his bed.

"LANCE"
"Baby"
"Thank God"

Lance smiled at the people standing around his bed. Lance made eye contact with Keith, the look that Keith gave him told him everything. Keith didn't tell the others.

"Guys-" Pidge cut in.
"Give him space, and water asap."

Hunk left and soon came back with some water.

"Guys," Lance started again. He made eye contact with Keith again. "I have cancer." The room was silent as Lance and Keith broke eye contact.

"Lance- Keith did you know." Allura whispered.
He nodded.
Allura began to cry, Coran ushered her out of the room. Hunk followed behind them tears in his eyes.

Shiro was the worst he looked so angry, yet sad. He sat down on the ground trying to get his bearings before slowly standing again. Shiro walked over to Lances bed and grabbed Lances hand.

"How much time do you have?" Shiro shakly said.
"3 weeks according to the doctors" Keith said for Lance.
Shiro cried. He cried alot. Lance ushered him and Pidge who was in a chair onto the small hospital bed. They were all crying.

Later That Week

"They're not taking the news well. Lance are you okay? Your face is so pale and your so skinny." Keith said warily.

"I'll be okay" Lance said weekly. Lance knew his time left on this earth will go to waste but he was ready to waste all of his time with the people he cared for.

Lance sadly didn't have as much time as the doctors assumed. 3 days was how much longer he had, but no one knew this till his monitor flat lined.

Lances funeral was extravagant. Keith made sure he was buried next to his family. Shiro helped Allura decorate the venue. Pidge invited all the guests. Hunk cooked alot of amazing food. Pidge, Hunk, and Coran shared their favorite memories with Lance, while they ate.

"Lance was a man who was widely loved, beings throughout the galaxy loved him. We will miss him." Thoes were the last words Keith spoke for months. Lanes death hit him harder than anything else.
