When the morning alarm went off, cueing for the paladins to awaken. Lance had already been up and dressed, With headphones in and a tired look on his face. Lance sighed, and walked to the mirror and put on concealer, and a fake smile.

When all of this was done he had been late, lance sighed once again and made his way towards the dinning hall for breakfast. Headphones in and No light No light Florence + The machine playing on full.

He walked down the empty halls, already knowing what shiro and Allura was going to say maybe even Keith and pidge..

Head down, looking at the floor, headphones in and a smile on his face. He had entered the dinning hall and sat in his usual seat. No one had noticed that lance was there until he dropped his spoon. Everyone's attention turned quickly to look at the Cuban boy, lance didn't notice.

"Ahem" Shiro coughed, lances music was to loud for him to hear so he didn't realise "HELLLOOOOO" A sudden grab on his shoulder made his attention to turn and flip whoever that was. It was Keith..

Lances eyes widened and soon after quick apologies and curses were thrown out of his mouth, some were Spanish some English. Lance got to his feet, earphones quickly taken out, The Cuban boy helped the half galran up.
"Sorry Keith, reflexes" Keith laughed
"Lance you've apologised almost 10 million times, it's fine" Keith grabbed lances hand and made his way up.

Shiro looked dumb founded, almost shocked. "When do you learn to do that lance!?" Shiro asks obviously concerned and confused on what he missed. "Lance has been training more" Pidge says with a mouthful of food goo
"How do you know about that!?" Lance shouts
"What do you mean, after lunch you always say your going to train?" Lances shoulders relax "oh right, sorry my mistake." Everyone went quiet..

"Today we have a new bonding exercise because ever since shiro, the real shiro came back the delay in forming voltron has been slow so everyone to the training deck in 5" Allura finished. And everyone went there separate ways.

After a long 5 dobashes later, everyone was in the training room awaiting for instructions. A few tics later Coran came in with a head set, it had wires and suction cups everywhere no one really knew what they were for. Keith spoke up first about the strange contraption.

"What is that?"
"It's a Machine that allows us to hear your thought, well some of the most frequent ones that is." Coran finished with a proud look on his face.
"YOU CANT DO THAT!" Lance anger boiled over, he didn't want to do this and it was obvious to the rest of the team.

Lances pov

"YOU CANT DO THAT!"I screamed, I didn't want the whole team to know what I thought , or how I felt, there going to know everything now. 
"Lance, if your hiding nothing then it should be fine." Allura chimed in
"Yeh" pidge agreed.

I sighed in annoyance "FINE"

One by one everyone went, first went shiro. Shirrrroooooo, ya know your 2 right?
Omg that's cool he can get free icecream!
I know I'm 6 Shannon.
His thoughts sounded of a conversation he had mostly a while ago. Then went Pidge.
THE KURBOROSE MISSION WASNT A FAILER, THEY DIDNT FAIL. Those words were repeated over and over again, I guess after finding Matt and her dad she still thought of it. After went Hunk. I mean, you have to great the - I stopped listening halfway through that since I knew it was going to be about food. Then went Allura. ALTEA WAS MY HOME AND YOUR FATHER DESTROYED IT! why did I ever love you? Why do I still love you? I felt my heart break, why was I so stupid into thinking that a princess was in love with me? After Allura went Keith,
Dropout
Nothing
Different
Terrible race
Alien
No home
Fag

Before the words could finish Keith pulled the helmet off of his head and sat there no one bothered to talk, no one bothered to hug the adult, so I made it my mission to.

I took off my own helmet before the words could start and I ran to the half galran and hugged him, cradled the now crying man. I whispered sweet nothings into his ear until he calmed down.
