Keith and I went back to his house, played Mario Kart for hours. We did all the races and then did some over again. I ended up beating Keith, not by a lot, but by enough.

We had a pillow fight afterwards. I kept bragging and teasing Keith that I beat him. So
when he threw a pillow at me, I wasn't surprised. I threw one back, because I could not ever turn down a challenge, then we just kept doing it. Until I pinned Keith down.

I didn't know what to do.

He was blushing. Hard. His entire pale face was bright red. He was staring up at me with his mouth open wide. It took all of my willpower to get off of him rather than kiss him.

But you can't do that.

That's what you want to do.

You can't have what you want.

We ate lunch and then when up to his room where we got dressed and each showered. After just watching T.V on the couch it was 5:00.

"Bye Acxa! We're going to a movie." Keith yelled up to his sister as we stood by the front door.

"Have fun on your date!" I blushed and so did Keith, "It's not a- Ugh nevermind." We just left the house and got onto Keith's motorcycle.

I hugged him tightly and made sure to press my entire body against him. I know he doesn't mind because 1. He always relaxes into my touch and 2. His heartbeat goes crazy.

It's funny. On the outside his body seems calm and comfortable in my arms but then I feel his heartbeat and it's like he's running a marathon.

I know that should make me feel good but instead it just makes me sad.

I wish we could both deny everything that happened between us. But we can't.

We ride fast to the movie theatre. I grip on tightly to Keith and shove my face into his back.

My sides and cheek still hurt, but after the warm shower at Keith's I felt a little better. My green jacket covers my arms and sides that are covered in bruises. My cheek bruise is still there but I'll just say Keith punched me. Pidge would believe me but Hunk wouldn't. He knows the truth about my dad. Only him, Keith and Allura know.

Allura.

Right once we park in the movie theatre I pull out my phone and call her, seeing all the texts already.

Keith gives me a worried look, still on his motorcycle, but doesn't say anything.

The phone rings for half a second and then Allura picks up.

"Lance." Allura says very seriously which gives me the chills. "Babe?" She sighs, "You know I hate to be mad at you right?" I scratch the back of my neck and start pacing around the motorcycle.

"Yeah I know that- wait are you mad at me?" I'm anxious now, Allura and I never argue.

Maybe that's because you do whatever she says. No questions asked.

"Yes Lance."

I gulp and look at Keith who's scowling up at the sun. "Why? Also, I'm sorry." Allura sighs then laughs her cute laugh, "I'm mad because you haven't asked me to the end of the year dance yet silly! It's in two weeks!" I feel a tsunami of relief wash over me, "That's it?" I squeak, "I mean- Allura will you go to the dance with me?"

She giggles over the phone, "Of course I will. I love you!" "Goodbye, I'll call you later babe." I hang up. I shove my phone into my pocket, groan up at the sun, then look back at Keith with a smile.

"Well let's go meet Pidge and Hunk and see this movie." Keith nods and gets off his bike. I start walking and he falls into step with me. "So what was Allura mad about?" Keith questions without looking at me, his hands are shoved in his jean pockets and he's watching the road we're walking on.

"She was mad I haven't asked her to the end of year dance yet. I'm so relieved I thought she was mad about something real!" Keith frowns then looks at me, "I feel like you're scared of Allura." I laugh at that, "Me? Scared of Allura? Never." I scratch the back of my head and Keith looks at me doubtfully.

"You're doing that thing again."

"What thing?" I look at the shorter boy.

He rolls his eyes, "You always scratch your head when you're nervous or-" he glares at me, "Lying." I gulp then realize I'm subconsciously rubbing the back of my head again. I shove my hands in my jacket pockets.

"Okay maybe I'm a little scared of Allura, but who isn't scared of their girlfriend just a little bit?" I chuckle and look at Keith. He's staring straight ahead with no real expression on his face.

He must be thinking hard about something.

His face has gone completely slack.

I wave my hand in front of his face with no answer. "Hellloooo Earth to Keith?" I say loudly and he still hasn't noticed me. I groan and roll my eyes. Desperate times call for desperate measures.

I get behind him and in a flash I've slapped my hands on his shoulders and screamed, "I LOVE YOU MULLET!"

"GAAAAH!" (I rlly wanted to put "kya" cuz Keith is an anime boy but I didn't-)

Keith screams and jumps in surprise and I'm doubling over laughing. I'm almost crying of laughter, "You-" I giggle, "You only responded-" I'm covering my face and shaking in a got of giggles, "When I said I love you."My sides still hurt from last night and laughing this hard hurts them even more.

Keith is glaring at me, "Don't say you love me if it's just a joke." I'm about to apologize but then I double over in pain.

I'm gripping at my sides and biting hard on my lip. A sharp pain has erupted in my right ribcage. I groan out and i fall over.

Well I would've fallen if Keith didn't catch me. He's looking down at me with worry and concern in his indigo eyes, "Lance, are you okay?" I groan out in pain as Keith sits on the ground. He lays me in his lap with my head up against his chest. This helps my sides a little bit.

"My-" I wheeze, "Sides-" Keith immediately lifts my shirt, I would blush if I wasn't in what felt like lethal danger. His fingers trace over where the pain is, I don't know what he's doing until he presses against my skin.

"GOD! FUCK!"

It sends a searing pain all the way up to my chest. Keith flinches, "I'm so sorry! But I think you broke something!" My eyes squeeze shit, "Mullet I think I'd know if I broke a rib- it would hurt a lot more." When I open my eyes Keith looks down at me with concern.

"Lance should we go to the hospital?"

I shake my head, which hurts, "No. Let's just watch this movie. The pains gone anyway." Keith looks at me with doubt all over his face.

"Seriously I'm fine see!" I stand up.

Then fall back down.

"I've got you-" Arms are wrapped around me again. I look back expecting to see Keith but instead I see—
