Keith and Lance unfused, hitting the ground with a thud. Keith had stars in his eyes as he looked lovingly into the Altean's eyes.
Lance smiled, and Keith could feel his heart melting at the beautiful sight. His pink lips parted so he could see rows of pearly white teeth.
Lance leaned forward and stroked a piece of hair behind Keith's ear, forgetting that everyone was basically fangirling over this.
But of course Pidge ruined the moment and said, "Best. Ship. EVER!!" Her glasses shining from the winter glare of the sun.
Keith actually just remembered that he was only in a white sweater outside in the snow.
He shivered violently. Pidge and Hunk were well prepared. Seeing them snuggled in thick coats and scarfs made Keith shiver harder. [Trust me when I say shivering harder hurts. Well, for me anyways.]
Lance noticed his shivering so he picked him up, bridal style. Lance was surprised when he felt how skinny Keith was. He could feel his fucking backbone.
Lance lifted up his foot and turned the doorknob.
He set the frail teen on the couch. Then left the room searching for a blanket.
