That Stupid Bug!

Weird

Keith had to admit it, Lance was pretty fast. He quickly caught up to Keith tackling him with an enormous hug, "Gotcha!" Lance exclaimed and laughed "L-lance, um, everybody is watching" Keith whispered before hiding his face under his fingerless gloves in embarrassment, Lance looked up to see everybody looking at him, Allura and Coran were a bit confused at the act, Pidge was still on the floor laughing, Hunk was confused but not surprised and Shiro was frowning with is arms crossed, he didn't look mad Keith mentally noted, he just looked confused with a slight tint of annoyance. Keith and Shiro went to the training deck to both train and have a brother to brother serious talk, Allura went to tend to the castle and set the coordinates for their next diplomat meeting, meanwhile Pidge, Hunk, and Coran were at the lab running some tests on Lance, Pidge studied his hormone changes and what had triggered it, she also studied the little bug who she had moved to a more comfortable place, Pidge and Hunk were running from side to side, Hunk running tests on Lance and Pidge running tests on the little bug trapped inside of the more spacious habitat than the jar it was in before. "When are we gonna finish? I wanna go see my sweetheart already" Lance groaned "Prolly a few more hours" Pidge said not looking back at Lance, he let out another groan with this one being in frustration "Hey buddy" Hunk said "You're gonna be ok, I'll try to finish as fast as I can so you can go do your stuff" Hunk said smiling "Thanks Hunk" Lance said smiling at his best friend "Alright Hunk, I need to test Lance's hormonal balance once again, I need you to hold him down just for security reasons" Pidge said whilst grabbing a folder "I'm not a threat" Lance said in a frustrated tone "Not to us, but you might wanna go for Keith dude" Hunk said sheepishly Lance gasped "I'd never hurt my love" He said with an offended tone tinting his voice "I know you wouldn't dude, but it's for both your and his safety, I don't want you to do something you'll regret" Hunk said patting Lance on the back, Lance sighed "Alright" he said.

"Let's start shall we?" Pidge said pulling out a small picture from the folder "How do you feel about her?" Pidge asked, it was a picture of Rachel, Lance's crush from middle school "Uh, not much really" Lance said and shrugged "Hunk, please check the hormone levels and heart rate" Pidge said whilst looking for another picture on the holographic screen "Alright" Hunk said looking at the holographic screen displaying Lance's heartbeat amongst other things "Heart rate and hormone levels are normal" Hunk said "Alright" Pidge pulled out another picture "How do you feel about princess allura" Pidge said showing him the picture "She's pretty, but now that I think about it, not really my type, if I'd like her I don't think she'd return the feeling" Lance said "Hunk, any changes?" Pidge asked pulling out another picture onto the screen "Heart rate normal but I've noticed a slight decrease within the serotonin levels" Hunk said moving a few things within the screen "Interesting" Pidge hummed as she wrote it down "Alright, how do you feel about Shiro?" Pidge asked "Uh, well, he's like a father figure for me and well I think he is for most of the team" Lance said scratching the back of his neck "Oka-" "But he is way too overprotective of Keith" Lance cut off pidge "Like, I get that they're related but like he shouldn't be so intrusive within Keith and I's relationship" He said huffing and crossing his arms a frown plastered across his face "Alright, Hunk anything new" Pidge asked looking at Lance "Yeah, heart rate levels went up a bit in agitation and I have noticed a secretion of norepinephrine" Hunk said checking the screen "Okay" Pidge wrote it down "How do you feel about me?" Pidge questioned looking up at Lance "Uh, like a sister honestly" Lance said shrugging "And Hunk?" She asked "He's my best friend and I really appreciate him," Lance said looking over at Hunk "Aw thanks buddy, I feel the same way" Hunk said sweetly smiling at Lance "Any changes Hunk?" Pidge asked "Uh yeah, calmer heartbeat and neutral hormonal levels" Hunk said looking back at the screen "Alright, here comes the kicker, I'm sure this'll get higher reactions," Pidge said pulling one more picture onto the screen "How do you feel about Keith?" she asked.

The reaction was almost immediate "Uh" Lance said, he started fidgeting with the collar of his shirt "Well, uh, how do I put it" he said scratching the back of his neck "He's uh really pretty and uh" he stopped to take some air "and, uh, is it hot in here or is it just me, haha" Lance said awkwardly laughing "Hunk how's it going?" Pidge asked "The heartbeat has raised and dopamine levels are currently rising," he said "uh-huh" Pidge agreed "Lance" she called out whilst she wrote down the results "Would you like to do anything with Keith?" Pidge asked "Uh.." Lance at that point was sweating a bit "Yeah, th-things like kissing and cuddling y'know, hahaha" he said scratching the back of his neck again "Pidge, the dopamine levels are going up faster now, I think we should let him take a breather" Hunk said worryingly looking over at his friend "wait Hunk" she said "Anything else you'd do if we left you two alone?" She asked "Uhh... n-no, well nothing he isn't up t-to do" Lance said breathing in and out "Alright, that's all, thanks Hunk, you're free to go Lanc–" Pidge was cut off when Lance leaped off the observation bed he was sitting on and went dashing for the door "Lance!" Hunk exclaimed. Lance was out of that place as fast as his body would let him go, he was off to find Keith the love of his life, his sweetheart, his everything, he first visited the training deck but no one was there, then he went over to the kitchen, still everywhere he searched he couldn't seem to find him, he called his name and even went to search for him in his room yet Lance's search was futile he couldn't seem to find Keith. Lance was bummed out, roaming the halls of the castle like a lost puppy, he was still looking around for at least a small glimpse of Keith yet nothing came up, he opted to go to the kitchen to grab a snack maybe eat his feelings away. He found Pidge there eating a bag of space chips "Can I have some?" Lance perked up, Pidge stared him and proceeded to shove another handful of chips into her face, she hopped off the counter glanced at Lance before running away. "Hey!" He screeched, Pidge kept running and eventually disappeared into the hallway "get back here you gremlin! Sharing is caring!" he shouted, "But I don't care!" Pidge shouted back "ugh," Lance said walking back to the kitchen, he searched around to hopefully find a hidden stash of food but his search was futile, he grabbed a bowl and poured some space goo into it, he ate it sighing at every bite and wishing, hoping to just see Keith.

A/N: Hi guys!!! So I made this chapter a bit longer and I'm glad I did because honestly I'm also loving how this story is coming up and I hope you guys do too, now something I want to address are basically the "Laboratory" Pidge and Hunk make their research and such could be also considered the room where the healing pods reside in or idk if you guys want you can make it a separate thing and actually make it into a lab, but that was it, thank you for reading this chapter, comments, favorites, suggestions and such are always appreciated ^^
