Instead he kissed her hand and smiled at her.

"Home?"

"Home."

It was the day after what happened at the beach, Katie was sitting on her bed, body red and her groaning. She had gotten sunburned.

Matt sighed as he rubbed aloe on his baby sisters back "I told you to use sunblock Katie, look what happened."

"I did! I just forgot to reapply it a few hours after...." the girl sighed, fiddling with the shirt in her hands.

"Whatever you say... I have to go to work alright? Ill be back later, mom and dad will be on break soon but dont get off until later tonight. I love you gremlin." He kissed his sisters head and smiled a little.

Pidge nodded and looked up at her sibling. "I love you too, weeb." She chuckled and put her tank top on with a low mumble.

Once Matt left, Pidge got up and looked in the mirror, in nothing but a tank top in shorts, she surprisingly felt confident. She even checked herself out!

Lance had kissed her the day before, well, on the hand but it was still something.

The small female looked up at herself after realizing she was staring at her hand, her smile fading right along side her confidence.

'What is Lance didn't actually care?
Why'd he kiss my hand in the first place?
He has a girlfriend right?
Yea... Lance doesn't like you Pidge, stop getting your hopes up.'

With these thoughts, came a feeling of uneasiness and she ran to the bathroom, throwing up all she ate for breakfast into the toilet bowl. Of course she hadn't eaten much so after a moment it was just stomach bile. The taste of acid filled her mouth and she gagged, coughing and sitting on the bathroom floor. Her vision was now clouded with the tears thatcame with the vomiting and her heart ached at all the thoughts.

As she stood up, looking into the mirror, she couldn't stand to be looking at her own reflection and so...

Another mirror is broken.

Hours passed after Katie's little episode in the bathroom and she now lay across the couch, bag of chips on her chest as she watched netflix. Thats all she seemed to ever do now, never eat actual food and binge watch Tv shows like Supernatural and Shameless, her parents called her lazy but she called it 'depression'.

Just then, her phone lit up and rang. The girl glanced at it to see Lances caller ID. She reluctantly picked it up, a low sigh escaping her lips before she answered.

"Aren't you on a double date with your girlfriend and sheith?" She always referred to Keith and Shiro by 'sheith' she had ship names for everyone, not nessicarly only used if their together, but if two or more people are hanging out thats what she refers to them as.

"Well hello to you to Gremlin. We actually had to cut that date short because Allura broke up with me almost immidently after she showed." Lance was acting as if was no big deal! What the hell McClain?

"... you dont sound too broken up about it." The girls voice was quiet, almost like she cared, which she didn't. Allura is a horrible person, yea everyone loves her and shit but shes pretty much a bitch.

"Eh, it was bound to happen so um... wanna come hang out with us? Were at the arcade we can come get you if you'd like."

"Considering no ones here and im watching netflix, covered in chip crumbs, the arcade sounds great. Come get me and I'll actually put pants on."
