Life Line ((A voltron AU))

Morning Glory

Keith woke up to a steady rhythm still playing quietly against his left ear. After a moment he forced  himself to sit up, letting the thin cream coloured sheets fall off his slender shoulders and took a deep breath, feeling his lungs with misty morning air. However, once the sharply cold air hits his fair skin, Keith shivered and decided that it was far too cold to get out of these sheets. So, instead of forcing himself to face another morning,  he laid back down into the warm comforting dent that had formed itself into the worn mattress.

He was now face to face with the still sleeping Lance taking in his relaxed traits. His tan skin looked so soft and it had a golden glow to it due to the sunlight that barely made its way out of the weathered window. His chestnut hair looked almost as though it was spun with silk as golden light shimmered against it's strands. Maybe it was just because Lance took great care in his looks or maybe it just came from his personality but Keith had always thought that Lance was a attractive guy, but of course he would never admit what he thought to anyone else but himself. Although Keith loved Lance's soft traits, such as his skin and hair, he was still waiting for his favorite and that was his breath taking sapphire blue eyes.

It wasn't long before Lance started to stir slightly in his sleep, his body slowly waking up from his deep slumber. With a soft breath, his eyelids slowly fluttered opened and revealed those pretty blues. Keith hadn't realized how close he was gazing until those sapphire blues were staring right into his purple orbs, their noses almost touching. Keith froze in place and his breath hitched. It truly took all of his willpower to not jump off the bed and make a run for it. 

"Morning Keith..." Lance grinned softly and sleepily.Sweetly even. He was glad to see Keith up and halfway alert. "Feeling any better, morning glory?.."  He asked quietly, his warm breath tickling Keith's cheeks.

Keith nods in response, a small and embarrassed smile across his slightly pink face. "Mmm..Yeah. Just a little bit.."

"That's good..." Lance softly hummed before pulling Keith closer. Keith let's him do this even though he was unprepared for the sudden display of affection. 

"I'm really glad that your okay, Keith.." Lance whispers gently, his warm breath  puffing slowly against Keith's exposed skin and his fingers gently brushing through his messy raven hair. He must have been so worried.. Keith thought to himself, guilt eating away at him, as he buried his head into Lance's shoulder. 

Lance blushed abit, feeling pressure against his the side of his neck and his pulse sped up. He wanted to say something but he just couldn't really figure out what. He wanted to ask Keith if he was alright but he had already asked him that. It would be stupid to keep asking the same questions over and over again. But he selfishly wanted to know everything that was going through Keith's pretty head... he wanted to know how he felt for a change. If he could just find out how to say the right words.. he'd be doing great.

Before Lance could open his mouth, loud pounding erupted from the front door.

"Oh!"Lance exclaimed with a large grin. "That must be them!"

Keith sat up,having no earthly idea what was  going on.

"Them?" He scrunched up his brows with confusion and concern as he looked up at Lance, watching him head for the door.

Oh yeah.."Lance started with a sheepish smile.

"Pidge texted me last night and told me that  Hunk and her is coming over here.."

"And why didn't you tell me this!?" Keith exclaimed, jumping off the bed.

"Didn't  want to wake you." Lance shrugged as he opened the door. His small smile widened and his face light up, seeing both of his friends in one piece. "Hey guys!"

"Hey, buddy!" The Hawaiian exclaimed as he wrapped his large arms around the smiling Lance. 

"Uh..Hey. Gotta breathe buddy.. "Lance choked out,  feeling like his ribs were closing in on themselves.

"Hey,  Lance. "The shorter brunette greeted as she walked past Lance, her eyes glued to her phone. "Hey, Keith. "She glanced at Keith, who gave a short smile to the two.

"Glad you guys made it in one piece."Keith mentioned with a soft breath of relief.

Lance pulled himself away from Hunk's embrace.  "What took you guys so long?!" He asked as he shifts his glance over at Hunk and to Pidge. 

"Well,  You see--" Hunk tried to explain.

"We've  tracked down where Shiro is... And my brother. "Pidge said,  her ember eyes intense with determination.

"What do you mean? They're in the Glara prison. "Keith raised a brow. 

"Yes. But now we know WHERE it is. " She shows Keith a map she had pulled up on her green phone.  The location of this prison was right in the middle of Galra territory. More  specifically, on the east side of the kingdom.

Aka. Right in the middle of the actoin
