Switched?!

Chapter 9

Keith's POV

I race down the hall to tell Shiro and then I freeze. I'm still in Lance's body. I can't confide in anyone but...PIDGE! I can tell Pidge! But, is that really something I want to share with the queen of blackmail? She'd never let it go. I'd be hearing about it every time she needed something from me until maybe, just maybe, Lance and I decide to be open about our relationship. Wait. Is there even a relationship? Does Lance think of me the same way I think of him? I guess only time will tell. I could go ahead and ask him what he thinks about us, but I'm not that bold. Then again...Lance is that bold...and I'm in Lance's body!

I'm thinking that in order to stay in character, as Lance, I'll have to be flirty. Which is kinda hard on me, because I'm usually so closed off. I guess if I asked Pidge for help on that she wouldn't get suspicious of anything. That's it. I'll get Pidge's help with the flirting and maybe open up to Allura about what happened...maybe. But, only because she's like a mother to us. And she'll know what to do. I hope.

"Hey. Pidge?" I muttered, poking my head into her room.

"What?" Pidge glanced up from her computer and took a bite out of her snickers bar. 

"I need a bit of help pretending to be Loverboy Lance." I smiled, sitting down on her bed.

"Oh boy. This is sort of urgent, right? You learning how to flirt like him?" Pidge laughed, closing her laptop.

"You could say that." I responded with a smirk.

After learning around a hundred pick up lines, Pidge gave me an update on her part of our situation. She had learned a bit more about our Freaky Friday incident and what she knew wasn't good.

"This voodoo lady is actually pretty famous for her work. Lance was able to identify her based of some pictures of women I located and she's the best at her job. She takes the worst of enemies and swaps their bodies forcing them to team up and learn things about each other they'd never have the chance to know before. Seems like you guys will be stuck this way until you learn to get along. And actually, this is a great bonding experience for the tem. Do you think you guys are making progress?" Pidge rambled on, explaining her research.

"So you're saying there's no way for you to fix us?!" I shouted, ignoring her question.

"Unfortunately, no. It's going to have to be some big life changing lesson." Pidge sighed, adjusting her glasses on her nose.

I let the room fall silent and realized what deep shit Lance and I are in.

Lance's POV

I kissed Keith. I kissed Keith. I kissed Keith. I KISSED KEITH. WHAT HAS GOTTEN INTO ME?! Besides, I wasn't even kissing Keith! I AM KEITH. I don't know what's more freaky about this whole thing! The fact that I'm in his body or the fact that I just made out with myself! This is INSANE. I need to get out. Of his body, of his mind, of this castle. It's too much pressure. I hope he's handling this better than I am.

I climbed into Keith's lion and started him up. I shot out of the castle and soared around in the stars. What better way to clear the mind than taking a challenging trip through an asteroid belt?!

I made my way towards the debris and prepared myself for a ROCKY ride. (Pun intended.)
