Pidge sat on a bench in Voltron park. Her shoulder and eye ached with new bruises which were added this morning. she toyed with her sweater. she sighed and got up checking her watch. 

12:03... about an hour before she had to go back to that hell. a calming song played through the air, catching her attention. she looked around to find the source and laid eyes on a beautiful man with chocolate hair flopped over his face. he strummed a guitar and before pidge realized it. she was standing in front of him staring. 

"What kind of man lays his hands on the woman he loves?

Calls her angel, but shows no remorse in her blood
He covers her body in bruises and scars
You don't understand just how beautiful you are

You are too beautiful
Your heart wants something more
Those shades of blue on that face of yours
Hide that smile that beats in your chest

When he's done with her beating
He just stands aside
Wipes the sweat from his brow
And yells over her cries,
"You don't know what I've been through!"
He yells and he says,
"You don't know what I've done for you!"
And hits her again"


pidge felt her chest tighten up when she heard the lyrics he sang. his voice was as soft and beautiful, his skin a light tan. beautiful. wow.

"You are too beautiful
Your heart wants something more
Those shades of blue on that face of yours
Hide that smile that beats in your chest

She stands in the mirror
She looks less alive
She lifts up her shirt to see she has five
Branded fingers on her side
She's feeling it all now
But she doesn't cry
She doesn't cry

You are too beautiful
Your heart wants something more
Those shades of blue on that face of yours
Hide that smile that beats in your chest."


pidge stared at him as the song finished. he looked up and they locked eyes. a small breeze causing her hair to dance around her face. He looked at her curiously and stood up. 

when he saw her the first thing he noticed was her outfit. a big baggy green sweater that was ripped and torn as well as black ripped jeans. her hair was a mess but it was a cute messy. but what truly caught his eye was the tears running from her eye over her freckelss and down off her chin. 

"miss are you okay?" he asked touching her shoulder.

pidge jumped back to reality and winced. 

"You're crying... are you okay?" he asked.

pidge looked at him and touched her face. she wiped her eyes and looked away. the man stepped forward and touched her shoulder again causing her to wince in pain. a small whine escaped her but she didn't stop him when he tugged her sleeve down her. he gasped.

"who did this?" he asked in concern. 

pidge stayed silent as he lifted his hand to her chin and lifted her face. she looked him in the eye and he brushed the hair away from her face. her bruised eye was exposed for a split second. she pulled away from him and quietly started to turn away. he stopped her by grabbing her hand. he led her back to the bench and sat down next to her. 

"hey what's your name?" he asked.

"p-pidge..." she whispered. 

"well...pidge I'm lance... are you okay?" he asked

pidge shrugged, "I guess?" she said.

"no. you're obviously not. tell what happened." he said grabbing her hand.

"why do you want to know? you don't even know me," she said pulling away.

lance sighed and stood up and grabbed her hand. he lifted her up. 

"I know you just met me but do you trust me?" Lance asked.

"u-un yes?" she whispered locking eyes with him again.

"good. then lead me to whoever hurt you."

"what?!" she said.

"you don't deserve to be treated like this and so I'm going to end it." he smiles.

pidge blushed, "i-i shouldn't-"

"hey. no one is going to hurt you now. I promise." something about his words were different and she broke.

she started to cry.

"hey what's wrong?" he asked.

pidge didn't say anything. she stepped forward and buried her face in his chest and sobbed. he gently wrapped one arm around her and held her. 

"Shhh... it's okay. you're safe now." he whispered. 

she stopped crying and looked at him. he smiled and brushed his thumb across her cheek.

(time skip)

pidge walked out of a police station after showing the proof to the police and landing the idiot in jail. it didn't take much to get the guy to fess up. he was sick. he didn't even hold back to talk every time he beat her. lance wanted to punch him so badly.  she stopped on the corner and looked around. 

"what's wrong?" lance asked turning to her.

"Oh um i-i just d-don't um h-have anywhere to-" she stuttered.

"don't worry about that. I thought it through and we're going to go to the mall."

"what?" she asked.

"you'll see." 

(time skip)

pidge followed lance into a huge complex full of apartments. she walked to a room she assumed was his. he walked in to set a few bags on the counter. 

"welcome to your new home," he said.

pidge looked at him with wide eyes, "wait really?"

"yeah. if you want."

"I'd love to but I don't want to be a burden." she blushed.

"Oh please. I'd love to have you here."

pidge locked eyes with him and blushed.

"thank you so much," she said a tear running down her face.

"of course. now why don't- you get changed out of those clothes," he said.

Pidge nodded and went to the bathroom. she changed and walked back out of the bathroom. lance was caught by surprised by the girl's small frame. now that she was out of those baggy clothes, he could see her natural curves.

"w-what?" pidge blushed.

"you're so beautiful."

she blushed even harder, "t-thanks."

the end.
