Pidge woke up in her bed remembering the deal she made with Allura in the bathroom. She fixed her hair and put on her normal attire.
"You going to walk to school?" Matt asked coming in her room.
"Yeah. I'll walk. There's something i got to take care of." Pidge said.
"So you made Lance fall for you huh?" Matt said.
"How'd you know?"
"The internet. He posted pictures of the flyers everywhere." Matt said. Pidge felt slightly embarrassed talking to her brother about boys. It's nothing like talking about math or codes.   Pidge got up and left the room.
"You're leaving already?" Matt called out as she headed down stairs.
"Got things to do." She said heading out the door. She skipped her morning trip to the ridge and headed to school were she sat there awaiting Allura. Lance however sat on his porch looking at the ridge awaiting his Cinderella to show herself.
Allura finally arrived with the sunshinning. Teens entered the building as she approached Pidge who was smiling sitting crisscross on the stair way to the school.
"Have you been waiting long?" Allura asked.
"Only since 6:30. What took you so long." Pidge said.
"I get up at 7:00." Allura said.
"Did you tell him?" Pidge asked placing her elbows on her knees resting her head on her hands.
"No, I...I was planning to today. This morning actually when he gets here." Allura said. Pidge eyes drifted to side as someone came up.
"Morning." Keith said coming up.
"There he is." Pidge said.
"There you are." Allura said.
"That I am. What's going on with the two of you?" Keith asked. Pidge faced Allura in the same pose with a smile on her face.
"Yeah, what's going on Allura?"
Allura ignored Pidge's comment.
"Pidge could you give us a moment?" Allura asked.
"Sure. Just remember what happened last time you asked for a moment with Keith." Pidge said. Keith lifted an eyebrow and Allura cleared her throat. Allura pulled Keith to the side of the school.
"You want to tell me what's going on." Keith said.
"Pidge asked me a while ago if i knew what it was like to love someone who never notices or doesn't seem to love you." Allura said. Keith stood there looking at her understanding everything.
"I told her I have. One time. Freshman year...it was you." Allura said trying not to blush. Keith remained silent and stood there looking at Allura he opena his mouth to call her name but she began to speak.
"I didn't know i liked you till you had gone. I couldn't stop thinking about you till Lotor. It wasn't till i heard Axca asked you to the dance and you standing up for me that those feelings resurfaced. Truth is i don't think i ever got over you." Allura said.
"Allura..."
"But when you left i felt i had to move on because i felt like you had been waiting and you couldn't wait any longer so you left and-" that's when the talking stopped. Allura stood in shock with her eyes tearing up. Keith had stopped her from talking by hugging her as she once did for him. She was caught off gaurd.
"I didn't leave because of you. I left to find a piece of me that was missing. I would never leave you." Keith said still hugging her. His words made her emotional to the point were she hugged him back she gribbed the back on his jacket as tears rolled down her face. Keith didn't know what to do with a crying woman. He broke the hug and looked at her.
"I never stopped loving you." Keith said. With no warning Allura was once again caught off gaurd. Keith had kissed her. His lips pressed up against hers. She closed her eyes and kissed him back. She didn't wrap her arms around his neck knowing Keith probably wasn't ready for it. Keith pulled back as the bell rang. Allura's mouth still almost in the shape of her lips when they parted. Keith looked at her as she looked at him longingly. He realized what he had done and he took off embarrassed leaving Allura still stunned. Pidge came up not knowing what happened.
"What was that all about?" Pidge said.
"He's a great kisser."Allura said. Pidge just gave a smirk. Allura returned to her body and spoke.
"Go tell Lance your his Cinderella." Allura said to Pidge.
"And I will. In my own way. Pidge took from her pocket a mask that hand a striking resemblance to Pidge's.
"Is that your mask? I thought Lance had it in his locker?" Allura said.
"He did but i got here so early i took it. I have a plan but I'm going to need your help." Pidge said.
When Lance got to school he was disappointed.
"What's wrong?" Hunk said walking up to Lance. Lance reached his locker and banged his head on the door.
"She said she often goes to the ridge but she hasn't been there." Lance opened his locker and fell to the floor.
"What's wrong?" Hunk said before getting investigated by Lance.
"Where is it?" Lance asked.
"What?"
"Your the only one who knows my combination. The mask...is gone." Lance said moving his hands through his hair checking the floor and throwing things from his locker.
"Did you take it home?" Hunk asked.
"No. I kept it in my locker. What am i going to do?" Lance asked.
"Maybe it'll turn up." Hunk said. For the rest of the day was moping around. It seemed as if only Pidge could cheer him up. Allura whispered to Pidge,
"When are you going to tell him?" Allura asked. They all sat at a round cafateria table.
"Tonight but I'm going to need help from you, Keith, Hunk, and Romelle. Do you still have clothes you wore to the dance?" Pidge asked. Allura lifted an eyebrow curious. In the final class of the day is whsn Pidge told everyone her plan. Lance had fallen asleep at his desk.
(In Lance's dream)
Lance was back at the dance. He had 1 more question left to ask. His mystery girl in her emerald shoes and forest green dress laughed with her green lion mask. Lance looked deep into her eyes recognizing the hazel glow when the sunrise hits it. He wanted to remove the mask more than anything all just to see the person behind the mask. Music began to play and he was back dancing with her staring at her hazel glowing eyes.

(The song goes good with the situation am i right?)
"Lance?" Someone spoke as the dream became hazy.
"Lance?" Lance slowly opened his eyes as he saw hazel eyes in front of him. He thought it was his mystery girl. When he fully opened his eyes he saw Pidge and began to wonder, if you replace her glasses with a mask.
"Oh, wha-what's up Pidge?" Lance asked. Why am i stammering Lance wondered.
"Class is over. Come on." Pidge said waking him up. They left and Lance went to put his journals up and found a note that read
'I've seen your posters, if you wish to see me
Then go to place I try to visit every morning
Only tonight, come in what you wore at the dance'
Lance rushed out of school leaving his friends they smiled as Pidge's plan was in motion.
(How you enjoy. I've been busy and trying to keep up. I have had volleyball practice and a game that we won i'm proud and i am sick today but plance is important. I hope you enjoy.)
