Keith One Shots

~Ignored Pt. 2/2~

Keith's P.O.V

It was no use.....

No matter what I do....

No matter how many times I asked....

They just didn't listen....

So I stopped trying.....

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

I walked into the kitchen and felt everyone's eyes glue to me.

It was fine.

I was used to it now.

I grabbed a bowl of food goo and sat down at the table, watching as the others carried on with their conversation. They just ignored me completely, as if I wasn't even there.

I sat there and listened to them talk.

They talked about Lance's flirts.

They talked about Pidge's inventions.

They talked about Hunk's cooking.

They talked about Shiro's leadership.

They talked about Allura's beauty.

They talked about Coran's moustache.

But they never even uttered a word about me. It was as if I didn't exist anymore. It was as if they didn't remember a thing about me anymore. It was as if they had thrown me out of the family. It was as if....

they didn't love me.

I tried to ignore all the thoughts running through my head and I looked up at the others. I noticed something odd. They were all staring at me. What made it even weirder was....

they looked sorry for me.

I looked behind me to check they weren't looking at anything there, but all that was there was a wall. My eyes darted across the others, checking they were looking at me and I wasn't going crazy.

They were definitely looking at me...

but why?

"Why are you staring at me?" My voice cracked as I spoke, showing both the fear and confusion I had. I wanted to cover my face from the awkwardness.

I put my hand up to my face, only to feel tears trickling down. I was crying?

"That's enough guys" Pidge spoke, looking at the others.

"Allura. I think you were wrong" stated Lance. I was so lost.

"Wrong about what?" I asked, looking at Allura.

She sighed. "We still can't be sure" her voice was bitter and cold.

Hunk stood up. "Well i'm done with this! I can't shun Keith out any longer!"

He then walked over to me and put a hand on my shoulder. I flinched at first but then I accepted the attention.

"Can someone please explain?" I said. My voice sounded dull. I was so done with being ignored.

Lance looked at me straight in the eyes. It felt weird seeing as about a week ago he had done everything he could to avoid looking into my eyes. "Keith. Allura brought up a good point a few weeks ago. She said that she thought you were a spy for the galra. At first we thought it was stupid but as she talked more and more about it, we realised it could be true." I had to think twice about what Lance had just said before I replied.

"What made you think that I was a spy?"

"Well. On the mission you and Pidge got injured on, we heard the galra talking about a spy being on the ship. A.... clone or something? Allura assumed straight away that it was you. We eventually agreed with the idea after she told us about the way you don't explain yourself much. You keep all your past life a secret. You train non stop. It all added up to you." Lance seemed like he didn't want to explain anymore, so Pidge took over.

"We knew that we needed you to pilot the lion. So we decided to keep you until we found someone else who could pilot your lion. Then we decided to distance ourselves from you as you didn't actually care about us. From what you said earlier about us not loving you, us not remembering the memories we have with you, it makes me question whether Allura's statement was wrong"

I said that whole thing out loud? I didn't even notice.

Pidge and Lance walked closer to me. "we are sorry Keith" they said in unison. I smiled at them and before I knew it, Lance, Pidge and Hunk were all giving me a hug. Coran walked over.

"I'm sorry Keith. I should've had more trust in you." Coran joined in on the hug.

Eventually the four of them let go. I looked at Shiro. Did he still hate me?

"S-shiro do you still-" before I could finish my sentence Shiro hugged me tight.

"I never should've doubted you" He whispered in my ear.

"Heh. I'm just glad you don't hate me"

""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""

It has been a week since then and I've warmed up to all the team again. Well..... almost all the team. Allura still has her suspicions which I try to ignore. She did apologise for slapping me though, which I felt grateful for.

Lance and I have started talking more. We hang out more often and I sometimes come into his room at night so we can play video games. I think I'm starting to fall for hi-

I help Pidge with her inventions a lot of the time now. We make cool things like robots and computers. Of course, she does the calculations. I just put it together the way she wants it.

Hunk and I sometimes cook together in the kitchen. I didn't really know how to cook before but now I feel like I could cook for the entire team! Okay..... maybe not just yet.

I started doing some chores around the castle to help Coran. He told me it would take him days to do all the cleaning because of how big the castle is. I mostly clean the bedrooms. It's a pretty nice job. I just never want to walk in on Lance's Shakira dancing ever again.

And finally, Shiro and I have trained together as well. I'm starting to beat him sometimes, but I think he goes easy on me. He says he doesn't but I'm like 90% sure he does.

I'm so happy all the team talk to me again. I was really starting to consider leaving the team. I guess all I needed to do in the end was just tell them how I felt about it. Now I just hope Allura forgives me. Then we can all be....

One

Big

Happy

Family.

Wow that turned out better then expected. By the way you decide which lion was Keith's at the time. I didn't know which one to put so I just didn't mention it at all. I hope you liked it!
