Lance sat down in class remembering the unforgettable night with his mystery girl. Keith sat down behind Lance while Hunk sat next to him. They were in art while the girls were in theater. Lance at first didn't know what to draw then it came to mind. Hunk and Keith lifted an eyebrow as Lancenwas surprisingly focused on drawing.
Hunk tapped Lance but nothing.
Keith poked Lance but nothing. Keith and Hunk looked over his shoulder.
"Lance! Stop thinking of your girlfriend!" Keith shouted in his ear to see his reaction.
"Aah! She's not my girlfriend!...i mean i don't know...if she is." Lance said thinking about their kiss. Hunk and Keith became very curious.
"What do you mean?" Hunk asked.
Lance didn't realize it but he was puckering up his lips remembering the kiss. (Oh it rhymes lol. So not intended)
Hunk was putting two and two together while Keith picked up quick.
"You kissed Pi-," Keith covered Hunk's mouth before he could say pidge's name.
"What how did you know?"Lance asked.
"You puckered up your lips," Keith explained "you could only be thinking about Cinderella." He finished. Hunk covered his mouth trying not to smile or laugh.
"I wasn't think about her!" Lance yelled. Keith lifted an eyebrow and picked up Lance drawing. It was a drawing of 'cinderellas' mask.
"Ok so i was thinking about her. She drives me crazy. More than Allura." Lance said.
"Why?" Keith asked.
"What do you mean?" Lance asked.
"I know who she is. I want to know what about her made you go crazy for her." Keith said. Keith was asked for Pidge's sake. Pidge and the mystery girl are the same. So why does he fall for her now.
"Well, she's funny. She a terrible dancer but i love to teach her," Lance went on and on making Hunk go in awww. Hunk was getting so happy saying
"that's adorable."
"And she isn't afraid to speak her mind. She told me i'm more than i think. She makes me see myself for what i am. She kind of reminds me of Pidge." Lance said. Keith and Hunk stopped for a moment.
"You know if you want your mystery girl or cinderella to come forward you should probably give her a reason." Hunk said. Lance took his drawing and wrote down around the mask a poem for 'cinderella' asking her to come forward. Lance had the drawing now wanted poster for his beloved Cinderella.
When Pidge came out of class she saw posters of her mask(lance's wanted drawing) on every single wall and on everyother locker. Romelle came up behind and took the poster.
"Wow. I'm guessing you left a great impression on him." She said.
Lance came up to them with more posters.
"Here take one." Lance said handing them a flyer.
"What's this?" Pidge asked taking a closer look. Lance pushed up Pidge's glasses making her blush.
"A wanted poster for my Cinderella." Lance said.
"Who's Cinderella?" Allura and Romelle asked.
"She's the most funnest, beautiful, and daring girl i've ever met." Lance said lost in a fantasy of his Cinderella.
"Cinderella is a fairytale story of a girl who fled a ball and left a shoe behind. Her prince charming went to every house with that shoe trying to find the maiden who fits it." Keith said.
"But how can one girl in a town have a shoe size that no other girl will have?" Allura said.
"Who cares it's romantic." Romelle said.
"Why are you so obsessed with finding this girl?" Pidge asked.
"Because she...she knows me. She told me I'm more than i think i am. I guess i never really noticed the kind of person i was, but she helped me see what i am and what i can be. I...I love her...but i don't know her. I want to be with her. She is amazing and she reminds me of you Pidge." Lance said to Pidge. She couldn't help but blush.
"It drives me insane. You don't know what it's like to love someone who is out of your league." Lance said. Pidge stood poundering everything Lance had said. Romelle couldn't help but aww with Hunk which didn't help the situation. Keith didn't know how to comfirt Lance since Hunk was down and Pidge was pondering. He placed his hand on Lance's back that even put Pidge in shock. Lance froze a bit but snapped out of it. Romelle and Hunk awwed at it.
"Shut it." Keith said.
"Keith knows what your going through." Hunk said. Once upon a time Keith might have told him a little secret.
Allura looked from Pidge to Keith. He still looked at Lance. Allura began to think of all the people who in Keith's mind could be out of his league. Then she realized it. Allura grabbed Pidge and took off with her to the bathroom.
"Carefull Allura. You could have broken my arm."Pidge said.
"You should tell him."Allura said.
"What?"
"You should tell Lance it was you." Allura insisted while pacing.
"Allura where's this coming from?" Pidge asked.
"He thinks your out of his league. If you don't confess soon he may get tired of waiting." Allura said still pacing.
"I doubt that." Pidge said.
"He could. Then he'll transfer schools and he won't come back and you'll move on to a spoiled a boy just to keep your mind occupied. Then he'll return and you'll realize oh, he was my highschool crush and he probably has moved on." Allura said so quickly. She took a breath in and Pidge placed her hands on her shoulders.
"Relax. Exhale!"Pidge said. As Allura exhaled.
"Now breathe normally," Allura did as intructed "now tell me what's wrong?"
"It happened to me. It might happen to you." Allura said.
"What do you mean?" Pidge asked.
"I liked Keith. Freshman year. I didn't think much of it. He didn't seem to care but when he left and transfered to galra academy(i made it up. A for effort) i couldn't find a way to stop thinking about him till Lotor came. Then last year after a year of being gone Keith returns." Allura explained.
"Lance has been hung up on you for years."Pidge said.
"Yeah but people can't always wait. Even love has it's limits. You need to tell him."Allura said firmly.
"If i tell him there's no telling how he'll react." Pidge said.
"You have to take risks." Allura said.
"There's a 18% chance he'll be fine with it, a 42% chance he'll friendzone me and-"
"Pidge, forget the math. When it comes to love all you have to be is yourself. At the dance. You were being yourself. He fell in love with you. Tell him who you are before it's too late. Don't make the same mistakes i made." Allura said.
Pidge felt Allura's lecture seeking in but she didn't want Allura to get away with it.
"Alright. I'll tell Lance only if you tell Keith the truth." Pidge said getting the last laugh.
