Once he got to Hunk's room he face planted onto the floor.
"What's wrong lover boy Lance?" Hunk joked but after a bit of an unresponsive Lance, he realized something was wrong. "Dude c'mon whats up?" He nudged Lance with his foot.
"I screwed up" he groaned.
"How so?" Hunk asked helping him up. After hearing Lance's explanation Hunk thought for a moment but before he could answer Lance went on a rant.
"I mean she's pretty all the time but the makeup was like a guitar amp but the guitar was already super loud and it took me by surprise so I didn't know how to react and, ugh." Hunk took the new information and came up with a response.
"You're living a Hercules song man." He put his hand on Lances shoulder. Lance tilted his head questioning Hunk. "The one where the girl is in total denial about Hercules." Hunk explained.
"You mean Hunkules." Lance corrected. Hunk took a deep breath.
"Dude you're in love."
"No chance no way I won't say it no no."
"You swoon you sigh why deny it oh-oh."
"It's too cliche I won't say I'm in love."
"Dude why did we do that." Hunk said confused after a moment of silence. Lance just shrugged and they both broke out laughing. "But really man it seems like you really hurt her feelings you should like fix that and what not."
"You're right but I'm not sure if I should right now she seemed really upset."
"All the more reason, come on go." Hunk pointed toward the door.
"Okay, mom." Lance sighed walking out the door toward Allura's room.

-----------------------------

Pidge felt horrible looking in the mirror if Lance, the walking pickup line who flirted with any girl with two legs (and sometimes even caught complimenting Kultinecker, their COW!) didn't like how she looked, she was hopeless. Just then the door whirred open, looking over expecting Allura, she was startled by the sight of an embarrassed Lance.

"Hi Pidge." he managed to squeak out. "I know you're probably mad at me but, you looked really nice I just didn't know how to respond, I-I mean you always look nice but um wow..." he tried to hide his blush, Pidge just rolled her eyes.
"It's fine Lance you don't need to apologize, Now go flirt with a Balmeran, but not Shaye, Hunk deserves her." She said marching out of the room. Lance stared at her dumbfounded as she strutted down the hall. He kicked the doorway out of frustration.
"Idiot!" He yelled through gritted teeth.

Allura finally finished up planning for the party with Shiro and she rushed back toward her room to check on Pidge but suddenly she bumped into Lance.
"Oh! Sorry Allura I wasn't looking where I was going." He apologized looking down, trying not to make eye contact after that cold glare from before.
"Yeah just like how you weren't thinking when talking to Pidge! I finally got to spend some girl time with her and she was quite enjoying it too! Now she feels horrible." She reviled the poor lovesick boy.
"Look Allura I just apologized but that seemed to make her more mad and the only reason I acted like that is because she looked amazing!" He defended himself startling Allura with his words.
"She looked amazing did she?" She nudged the boy raising an eyebrow accompanied by a devilish smile. He sheepishly nodded in response making the girl squeal with excitement. Two wins on Allura's half, one her friends could be in a happy relationship and, two that would get Lance off her back.
"But you can't say anything okay, she hates me already how it's going right now, mixed with that information will make Pidge never speak to me again!" He begged Allura not to tell. She agreed and headed to Pidge's room. After knocking on the door and reviving a grunt from Pidge signaling to let her in she ducked under the upward raised door and begun to speak.
"Are you okay?" She kindly remarked and sat on the foot of Pidge's bed where she laid, face in her pillow. The only thing following is a muffled more drawn out grumble. "Pidge what's wrong? Well I think I have an idea but, this is not the time to be gloomy, the party is tomorrow and you need to seem happy for the guests. For me, for the team, maybe more specifically Lance?" She ended the last sentence with an eyebrow raised in a sleazy tone that Pidge could just feel.
"You're right." She finally replied in words sitting up. "Sorry it's just, if Lance the one person who will flirt with anything doesn't think I look good then I know I'm ugly." She fidgeted. "Even with all the makeup in the world I still won't be pretty." Allura clenched her fists at what her friend had said an immediately threw her arms around her.
"Don't ever day stuff like that about yourself again!" She angrily demanded. "Promise me!" She yelled once again. Pidge silently nodded quite startled at her sudden tenseness and affections. The two girls sat once again, alone together in silence for what seemed like forever for Pidge. "If you're really feeling that bad, try to get some sleep. But, Lance would never intend to hurt you he's one of your closest friends." Allura tried to comfort her friend, but heard a grumble from Pidge after the last remark.
"Yeah but one of the only ones." She crossed her arms. Allura yet again scolded her over her self worth and reminded her she had a whole PLANET who were her friends that taught her to unlock the powers of her lion. Pidge just agreed with everything Allura said at this point just to get the princess out of her room so she could take that recommended nap that would soon fall into a deep sleep that would last until morning. Allura walked out of the room with a worried look on her face, walking down the hall staring at her feet, thinking on how she could cheer her up. Lance walking back from explaining to Hunk the disaster that ensued, saw the worried princess walking down the hall, wanting to talk with her but didn't want the same reaction as before. With that the ship was silent, everyone sleeping with only a blip from a radar in the main hanger making noise in the night, which was autopilot insuring their safe travel to the Balmeran at their scheduled time.

>ok wow 1095 words minus this of course, so this is where shit gets real well more so after this, and also I am so sorry for the Disney reference in a dreamworks fan fiction<
