Lance looked inside the fridge. They didn't have eggs. Or milk. Keith suddenly walked in..
He was wearing a red onesie that was kind of big for him. He yawned and rubbed his eyes.
"Mornin'" he said softly. Lance was ready to die happy at this point. Keith's hair was in his face and in all directions.
"We need food." Lance managed to say. Keith yawned then smacked his lips. "I'll go with you." He said.
Lance looked at him skeptically. "Alright. Get dressed. "He walked out and came back in the same clothes he sore yesterday. Lance slid on his light blue jacket. "Don't you have any other clothes?" He asked looking back at the smaller teen. He shook his head.
"Then I guess we're goin' shopping." Lance gave a lopsided grin, making Keith's heart melt, then nodded. Lance held the door open so Keith could get out. Then he froze. He grabbed the Altean's arm. "Wait! What about your hair? And ears." He asked. Lance shrugged. "We're going to my Mom's house first."
Keith gave him a sideways look before opening the passenger door.
Lance slid the key in and smiled as
the car roared to life. He pressed the agas pedal and drove.
Keith watched as snow lightly patterned the window. He had an urge to just reach out and grab a snowflake. Just to watch it melt in his hand. He smiled softly. Mom would live this. He thought sadly as his smile dispersed.
Lance caught sight of this. His cheeks started burning, signaling that the marks were going away. He placed a hand one his pale one, his eyes never leaving the road.
Keith gasped and quickly looked at his hand. He blushed then smiled softly.

Lance pushed the cart as Keith checked his phone for the grocery list.
Keith grabbed the eggs, then opened them. One of them was cracked. He picked up another carton and switched the egg.
Lance was busy checking his texts.
MasterPidgeon: We need ice cream. Chocolate.
SpaceDad: Get Orange Juice.
CinnamonRollz: Chips ahoy
Lance smiled. Then a notification popped up.
Mamá: Hola hijo. ¿Cómo estás?
Lance's eyes widened as he the message.
Me: Oh Dios mió!! Estoy bien! ¿Como esta la familia?
Mamá: Bien. ¿Como vienes?
Me: Sí Sí. Te amor
Mamá: Te amó mi hijo.
Lance squealed with happiness. Keith looked back at him, his lavender eyes full of confusion. "Lance?" Lance had a shit-eating grin so wide it was starting to get contagious. Keith felt a smile creep on his face. "Keith. Get in the cart." The smile instantly disappeared. "What?!" He asked. "You heard me. Get. In. The. CART!!" He said gesturing dramatically. Keith was taken aback. "O-Okay." He said, as he uneasily slid in.
"Hang on!" Lance got a running start before putting all his weight on shopping cart. Making parade through aisle. Keith was screaming bloody murder, whilst Lance laughed. "L-Lance! S-Stop were going t-to crash!" He screamed.
The store clerks just shook their heads and some giggled at the two teens. Or should I say fiances.
