Keith walked slowly to the door. He knew it didn't have an alarm or anything, so he could escape easily, but he knew there were cameras. He also didn't want to get caught by the others.
His heart pounded in his chest as he passed by the Head Mistress's room, who made sure to have her room right beside the exit door. He gulped, gently taking the door handle and turning it. He opened it, and peeked outside. He trembled at the chilly weather, but grinned when he heard footsteps walking towards the place. He knew, just by the footsteps, that it was Lance.
He wasn't very far, and he gave a wave and began to run over. Keith couldn't see Lance, but he could hear footsteps, and smelled the familiar peppermint smell, being drifted by the chilly wind. His heart pounded faster, Lance!- he let out a shriek as someone roughly grabbed him by his arm, "Where do you think you are off to?" The smell of perfume reeked around. He recognized the Head Mistress's voice.
"M-Ma'am. I..was just.. off to fetch water.." Keith gulped, shaking so much he could feel his legs struggling to hold him up. He didn't hear the footsteps anymore, and his eyes dimmed a bit.
"You don't have the water container. You little scum" she snarled, turning her head, "Come on, let's go back inside. You aren't to be near this door again" she commanded. Keith felt his heart beat pause, and his shaking stopped, "W-What..?" His eyes flashed sadness from behind the cloth.
Keith put a hand in his pocket and clutched the star, "Ma'am, I couldn't find the container. If you can find it, I'll get some. I thought that I could find one along the streets" he said. He was surprised that he could use such a smooth and persuasive tone.
The Head Mistress's eyes burned with Hate, but she turned, "Come with me. I'll get you the container, then you are off. Be back before dark, or I swear you'll be more than blind" her voice was cold. Keith gulped, following her to the kitchen, and waited as she scrambled around the container.
Hold on, Lance. Don't walk away. Don't leave. Please. He thought, lifting his head as he heard footsteps walk over to him, and felt a container pressed roughly into his hands, "Remember. Be back before dark" she said, turning him around and shoving him to the door.
Keith shut it behind him, and walked down the steps. He stood there in silence, then sighed in relief. His legs gave out on him and he fell to his knees, thank god.. I'm out..
"Keith!" A happy shrill came from the right of Keith, and fast paced footsteps. Suddenly Keith was wrapped in a hug, which was so tight he feared he would loose his breath.
"L-Lance?" He asked, smiling, as Lance broke the hug. "Yeah, it's me" he grinned, standing and helping Keith to his feet, "Let's walk and talk. I have a lot to discuss with you" he giggled, and wrapped an arm around Keith's.
Keith felt a wave of relief, and grief, wash over him. "Lance, I thought I wasn't going to be able to see you today. I just barely talked her out of letting me get water-"
"Speaking of that, that was amazing!" Lance beamed, giving a happy skip as he led Keith down the sidewalk, "You are such a smooth talker, dude! I was so surprised!" He gave a playful punch to Keith's shoulder.
Keith gave a soft laugh, "It was? I am?" He asked, clutching tightly to Lance's arm. He was so grateful to have someone to guide him around. It was like he had a life line connected to Lance, and if he let go, it would break.
"Yeah dude!" Lance replied, "You are a natural" he smiled. He paused, then talked again, "Oh, I almost forgot", he started, "I talked with my mom about adopting you. We don't have the money for it"
Keith's eyes flashed with pain, "Oh.. okay-"
"But" Lance cut him off, "My mom's friend is looking for someone to adopt. Her name is Allura. She and her Husband, Shiro, told me to bring you over so they can meet you, isn't that exciting?" He beamed.
Keith felt his throat twist, "Oh.. that's.. cool" he gulped. Lance turned to him, "What's wrong? You'll finally get out? Aren't you excited?" He asked, his blue eyes turning sad and curious.
Keith turned his head to look at him, "Oh! No! I'm excited! It's just.." he looked away, "I'm not.. that good at talking to other people.. what if.. they don't like me..?" He asked, his grip tightening a bit on the brunette's arm.
Lance looked at Keith's hands and lifted his free hand, setting it on Keith's hands, "They are gonna love you. Don't worry Keith. I know they will" he grinned, a slightly pink hue painting his tan face. Keith felt his whole face redden at the touch of Lance's hand on his, His touch is so gentle.. it's.. comforting.
Keith gave a small smile, "Yeah? You think so?" He asked, his body seeming to relax a bit more, though his heart was pounding. Lance nodded, "Yeah! Like I said, I know they will! They are really nice people, and they don't live to far from my house! Only a few minutes away!" He said, and chuckled.
"oh, we are passing my house now. My mom sees us. Wave!" He laughed, and raised his hand from Keith's hands, to wave. Keith gave a grin, and raised his hand as well, "Which way do I wave to?" He asked, feeling rather stupid.
"To your right. Here.." Lance turned his hand a bit, and grinned, "Now, wave hi!" He said, and laughed when Keith waved, "My mom waved back. She liked you" he commented, amused.
Keith giggled and turned to where Lance's voice had come from, "She likes me? That's.. really cool!"
