Lance's eyelashes fluttered for a second as Keith's soft lips pressed against his head, and hummed softly in his sleep.
When morning reached, Lance woke up after everyone else besides Keith. Slowly attempting at sitting up he found he had rolled onto Keith's pillow at some point in the night. His eyes snapped wide awake when he did and he glanced around to see if anyone else had noticed, and found everyone else had left the room. Half praying that the others hadn't noticed that he had been practically spooning Keith.
He slowly scooter away in hopes that Keith wouldn't wake up and notice, being sure in his head that Keith would get upset at him for something like that.


Keith woke soon after Lance. He sat up slowly and blinked a couple of times before his eyes finally adjusted to the lighting. He had no idea about Lance's spooning him in the night, though he did wake up warmer than usual. He only assumed it was hot in the room.
Keith finally noticed Lance and smiled. "Ah..I'm the last one up." He said in a still tired voice, running his eyes like a child. " where did everyone else go? " he asked, assuming Lance knew where they were.


Lance rolled his slightly stiff neck from sleeping on the floor, "Well Hunk is undoubtedly in the kitchen, and everyone else is probably on the Bridge with the other paladins.. that's my guess at least," he commented and glanced over at Keith and bit his bottom lip for a minute in thought. "Do you want to look around with me for awhile? Maybe you can find the training deck," he said in a hopeful tone since he knew how much Keith liked to train, and maybe he'd let him train with him... for team bonding reasons of course, not the fact that Lance just wanted to spend more time with him.


Keith stood at the thought of the training deck and climbed out of the tent.He knew just by the feel of it that his hair was a hot mess,so he ran his fingers through it and played with it for a while before he finally deemed it decent enough for public view.
"Yeah let's go. It's probably in the same place as it is on our castle" he said with a yawn following. Though his yawn sounded more like a kitten than it did an actual human. Maybe it was the galra part of him kicking in.
When he'd finally found the training deck, he was almost surprised to see the other Keith there already. Only it looked like he was just getting finished, sweat pouring down his face, his breathing rough, and his sword swings weak.
When he called for a stop, he looked over at Keith with a smile. "Whatever you do, don't go to level 20. It's literally impossible" he said before exiting the room.


Lance watched as Keith fixed his messy bed head, since his own hair was short he only had to run his hand through once before it was presentable. Standing up to follow Keith to the training deck, he started to wander if they should get breakfast first.
When they made it to the training deck Lance grimaced at the other sweaty and slimy Keith, then his face slowly flushed at the thought of his own Keith hot and sweaty after training. Involuntarily he ran his eyes down his own Keith and gulped a little at the mess he had just got himself into.
"Hey guys! I just had one of the best breakfasts ever from both of the Hunks," the other Lance stated while walking in and playfully elbowed Lance's side. Then continued to to walk to the other Keith and pulled him to him with a playful smirk, "hey babe~ do you want help with a shower?" The other Lance asked with a mischievous glint in his eyes.


For a second, the alternate Keith glanced at the other two then back at his lover and smiled. "Sure" he said in a slightly more loving voice than usual. Keith wondered if they were just showing off to make him and Lance uncomfortable. No, he didn't wonder, he knew it.
After they left the room, Keith took out his Bayard and held it tightly in his right hand. "You really dont have to do this, but if you want, go ahead" he warned before going in the middle to face the Gladiator. His Bayard quickly transformed into a sword as he held it out in front of him in defense. The robot's staff clashes with his own weapon and pushed down. Keith used his legs to kick its torso,sending it slightly flying backward. before it could regain its bearings, Keith thrusted at it aggressively. He then took the vulnerability of the robot as an opportunity to slice its head off,which went bouncing and rolled over in Lance's direction.
