Grown•i•s•h

Listen to this song. It's hella good and Y'all need to watch the TV series called Grownish. literally. It's about a teen going through college. Now on with the book!

Lily was sleeping on the ceiling of Diamond with her tail hanging around a pipe. Lance was looking through some things while Diamond was on Auto Pilot.   After looking through some things he thought o doing a face mask while waiting then continued to search. A few minutes later he got out a small mask maker. It had a different type of language that he couldn't remember what it said. He remembered about what the lady said something about 'Wonderful skin care!' so he sat down and opened it up. Lily smelled the mask gel then looked at Lance. "Well here goes nothing." Lance applied it on his face. 

Green sparks appeared from the gel then his whole body began to change. Lily's eyes went wide while she started swinging from the pipe to get next to Lance. When the green sparkles faded all Lily saw was his clothes. "Welp he's dead. Another one lost." Lily brought out a crucifix and said Amen then picked up the clothes and threw them to the side."Owe!" The pile of clothes yelled quietly in pain. Lily looked at the clothes then slowly moved over to them. Her tail still hanging onto the pipe just in case. When she removed the shirt then she shrieked and hid in the shadows of the pipes.

"He's...smaller?" Lily questioned herself while Lance looked around at the pipes. His little arms and Hand showing a lot of cuts and baby fat. One of his eyes were crimson red. Not to mention that he was naked. 

"Daddy?" Lance asked while looking up at Lily directly. "Do I look like your Da- You know what. Not even gonna say it." Lily soon came down on all fours on the floor. "Lance?" Lily asked with caution. Lance looked at Lily and tilted his head. "Keef?" Lance asked quietly while tilting his head. His hair flopped down over his eyes. Lily chuckled then picked him up. "Nope. I'm Lily. Let's go to the phone to call Keith." Lance threw his hands in the air. "Keef!" He cheered. Lily laughed then walked over to the chair. Blue came from her hiding stop and jumped onto Lily's legs with Lance hugging her.

Lily typed in really quickly than allowed Lance onto the camera screen. After a few minutes ringing, Pidge answered the call. "Lance what is- OH MY GOD!" Her glasses fell off from her face. She quickly added everyone to face cam. "Guys! LOOK AT LANCE!" Everyone was confused until they looked at him.

"Keef!" Lance called out with his hands opening and closing. Lily tried not to laugh but it came out as a chuckle. "There's a planet nearby. Maybe we can stop there and get Lance. Plus our lion's need to charge back up." Keith stated while Hunk was looking at baby Lance and trying to make him laugh. Which did work somehow?  "Were going on a twip in our favorite wrocke tswip zooming through the sky~ Little einstines!" Lance sang. "yEAHHHH- sorry!" Hunk said quickly with his face beet red. Lance laughed as a baby should. Full hearty and fully happy.

When they got to the planet Lance was softly hitting LIly's chest saying for her to come with him. She argued back saying no since they didn't know her and would probably think of her as a threat. Lance then stayed in diamond while Lily tried to get him out. But he would never listen. Hunk soon came over to Diamond and called for Lance. He spotted the baby and picked him up without noticing Lily. When hunk walked out of diamond he noticed something.

"When he was a baby he was never like this." Hunk commented. Everyone looked at Hunk confused. "What do you mean?" Pidge asked. Hunk mentioned the scars on Lance's skin that no one else noticed. "His friends were very abusive from what I remember at school. But I didn't know that they were this bad..." Hunk hugged Lance causing him to giggle. Kevin slowly walked over and stretched his arms out as a spirit. Lance noticed this then smiled. "Guardian man!" He called out trying to grab Kevin. 

Kevin turned back human and hugged Lance, crying in the process. "I miss baby Lance... He would always play hide and seek with my friends and somehow he would always win. Hey, Lance wanna play hide and seek?" Kevin asked while holding Lance up like he was Simba from the Lion King. "Yeah!"

When Kevin placed Lance down he began counting. Lance looked around then found a perfect place to hide. Diamond. When Lance made it into diamond Lily looked down at him. "Lance what are you doing???" Lance answered back by placing a finger on his mouth. He then proceeded to climb up onto the pipes to Lily. Lily then grabbed onto him and squeezed his cheeks. Lance made sounds every time she pulled them apart. "Are you playing hide and seek?" Lance nodded his head then looked down.

Keith walked in and looked around trying to look for Lance. "Is that the one you call Keith?" Lily asked quietly.  Lance nodded his head while looking down at Keith. "Keef is very sweet like a strawberry~" Lance commented while placing his little hands onto his cheeks. "And your his Blueberry to make the perfect smoothie?" Lance nodded. Keith soon left the lion and Lily put Lance down softly. "Lily come on, they don't bite!" Lily gulped and started sweating nervously. "Alright but after this game of hiding and seek." Lance cheered quietly and did a little happy dance. Lily smiled not knowing the things going to happen to her in the future.

Writer's Block is a bitch. :D
