Aturdir (Matt Holt x Reader)

You Have To Stay

Time seemed to fly as the girl taught herself to utilize the gun properly. She'd kill to have a weapon like this. Sure, she liked her bow and the small blade she normally used, but a big gun like this could do some real damage.

    Matt, after some time, found himself loosening up. He spoke to her easier, he didn't feel so stiff and was laughing and smiling freely. After taking down a few more training bots, the girl looked to the analog clock up on the wall very obviously made by Pidge. It displayed Altaean time and Earth time, the Earth time reading 10:15.

    "Oh no!" Y/N hollered, rummaging around the room to find a safe place to leave Lance's gun. Once she did, she raced out of the room, dragging Matt along with her and down the hall. The place she'd entered earlier today was a ways away.

    "Forget it, Lance. She's not coming..." Pidge sighed, dragging off Hunk. "Her and Matt are probably sleeping already."

    "Hey, no, c'mon she's probably just running late!" He whined. Lance wasn't giving up that easy.

    "I'll wait with Lance. You guys go start the movie." Keith said nearly emotionlessly while everyone else left.

    "I see what you're doing here... Keith." Lance narrowed his eyes and furrowed his brows, looking to the raven haired boy suspiciously.

    "Doing what?" He rolled his eyes in exasperation.

    "Trying to intervene!" Lance snapped.

    "With what?" Keith crossed his arms.

"Me and Y/N!" He exclaimed. "Unless you're just trying to actually spend time with me!"

    "We're here! Sorry, we got caught up training!" The girl barrelled around the corner, skidding to a halt just in front of them, Matt following close behind.

Matt and Y/N paused, eyeing Lance and Keith a little suspiciously, both of their faces tinged a little red.

    "It's ok, c'mon." Keith shook off whatever he and Lance had been talking about quickly and bent over a little, offering a piggyback to Y/N. The girl hesitated at first but then seemed to accept that maybe everyone here really was good and were trying to be her friend. She accepted it happily and Keith took off down the hall.

    "Keeeiiith!" Lance yelled angrily, taking off after them. "All of the piggybacks you've denied me, and this stranger gets one first day here?! How's that fair??!"

"She's not complaining in my ear, that's why!" Keith shout back.

Matt contentedly watched the situation unfold from behind. Y/N hadn't spoken much to the Garrison, or her past, and he wasn't sure she ever would. But just like everyone else here, it seemed there was a spark of hope amidst her laughter.

    When they finally made it into the hall where the movie was already playing, Keith dropped the girl from his back. She yelped as she plummeted towards the floor, only to be caught by a soft plume of blankets and pillows. Lance immediately jumped in beside her and nestled his way into the blankets. Keith, from the opposing side of the girl tried to climb in.

    "Ah-AH Keith! This spot was created for the honorary guest only." He forced.        

    Keith mumbled something. "So why are you sitting in it?"

    "Because I made it." Lance retorted back like it was obvious.

    "Guys shut up." Pidge snapped as the sound of the movie beginning boomed. Matt situated himself beside Pidge, nearly falling asleep on contact to the couch from sheer exhaustion.
