Slowly the rest of the team filed in, each giving Keith and Lance their own special looks. Shiro seemed tired and unfazed by them, Allura was trying to hide a smile, Hunk was just confused and a little bit hopeful, and Coran was just beaming at the two.

"So how did everyone sleep? Anyone too cold?" Shiro asked, looking at Keith wrapped around Lance.

There was an overall agreement that they'd slept good and there was no need for them to try and find any more blankets, if they could.

Keith however mumbled "I slept amazingly, I was so warm because of this human heater," everyone looked at Keith, "and I got to hear his morning voice which was perfect," and he sighed contently, obviously still half awake and delirious. Regardless of Keith not realising what he'd said Lance still turned red, his arms squeezing Keith closer to his chest. This resulted in Keith snuggling closer.

"Keith," Lance dipped towards Keith's ear, "you need to eat," but Keith shook his head, his hair tickling Lance's cheek making him giggle a little.

"That was 'dorable" Keith said, drifting back of to sleep, even though he'd slept a lot recently. Lance huffed and looked up at the group, "He's been sleeping a lot lately, I think it might be the cold or something because we can't really do much," he carefully stood up, Keith still clinging to him with his legs like a vice on Lance's hips, "I'm gonna head back to my room with him," Lance then picked up Keith's plate of space goo and dumped it onto his half eaten plate and carried it out with him.

"So," Pidge started as the doors shut behind Lance, "when do you think they're gonna admit they like eachother?" She asked the others.

Hunk looked at her, "Well I'd say no time soon," this earned a look of disapproval from both Pidge and Allura, "what!? I mean I know they like each other I just think it'll happen long after this week is through." He said shrugging.

"Well I think they'll confess before this week ends and there'll be like at least half a day of awkwardness because they don't know what they're doing," Pidge said, challenging Hunk. "How about we bet?" She proposed, he eyes sparkling, she knew she was right and she had her eyes on some parts to upgrade her laptop.

"Yeah," Hunk responded, "I'll bet on it." Pidge beamed, "Okay, if I win you owe me 200 GAC," she held her hand out to shake, "And if I win you have to buy me any ingredients I want for the next 2 months," Hunk said, he took Pidge's hand and shook it from across the table.

"Are we really betting on Keith and Lance?" Shiro asked, "I mean they're both emotionally constipated, neither of you'll win," that was all Shiro said before leaving, he'd obviously not slept much that night. The reason for that was because Allura was trying to get him to help her with her plan to get Keith and Lance together, the lack of sleep had unfazed the princess though.

"Well I agree with Pidge on this," Allura pitched in, "I mean they are already making progress!" She clapped her hands like she did when she announced the two would be sharing a bed and left the dining area, Coran following her whilst saying "I agree with number five on this, sorry!" He twiddled with his moustache.

"Well buddy," Pidge turned back to Hunk, "seems likely that I'm gonna win if everyone, bar Shiro but oh well, agree with me!" Pidge laughed in a mock-evil laugh.

"Yeah, yeah Pidge but I think I know my best friend," Hunk defended. At least he thought he know his best friend, he'd be happy as long as Lance is happy. Even if that meant that he'd loose 200 GAC.

Both Hunk and Pidge left the dining area to go work on their little passion project, a movie projector.

Lance was sat on his bed, Keith still snuggled up in his arms, eating his food goo and thinking about Keith. It was nothing new at the moment as he spent most of his waking hours with him, and his sleeping hours too.

Lance couldn't deny that he was in love with Keith. Yeah it seemed so sudden but he'd only realised what seems like a month ago. He'd been harbouring a crush on Keith for years at the Garrison but never acted upon it as Keith never seemed to acknowledge him. But he was fairly certain that Keith also liked him, not Love... yet.

From Lance's point of view it now seemed glaringly obvious that Keith had a crush on him. The guy was snuggling up to him and being awfully sweet on him at the moment.

Lance was 90% sure Keith liked him and he was going to do something about it.
