"Alright, Operation Make Aurora Like Me is a go." Lance said, flopping down onto the ground where Pidge and Hunk already sat. Hunk gave him a funny look as he pushed down the sleeves of his gray sweatshirt.

"What do you mean?"

"I mean, I'm going to make Aurora fall in love with me by becoming best friends with Keith." Pidge snorted.

"I'm sorry Lance but what? How is becoming friends with Keith going to make Aurora like you?"

"Well... She's always saying that she wishes we were better friends right?" Hunk and Pidge nodded. "So I just have to play nice, get on Keith's good side. Get on Aurora's better side. Get closer to her, show her what a great guy I am and then ask her out again and see what happens." Pidge looked at him skeptically.

"Ummm I'm pretty sure Aurora already thinks you're a great guy Lance. She just doesn't want to date you." Pidge said, tapping away at her computer after reading the message from her brother on Kerberos.

"Yeah well maybe I can change her mind. I really like her guys. She's funny and nice and gorgeous... Tell me this is a good plan, be honest." Lance said, looking at his friends pleadingly. Pidge and Hunk shared a look. She was currently wearing a large leather jacket that could have been her brothers, over her pajama pants and  shirt. She had slipped off her sandals and was sitting cross legged on the roof, her long hair flowing over her shoulders and back. Hunk had on gray everything. Gray shirt, gray sweater, gray pants but the sandals he was wearing were brown. When they looked back at Lance they both said,

"This is a horrible plan." Lance groaned and flopped out completely onto the ground.

"Don't do that." Hunk said, nudging his friends shoulder. "This roof isn't that clean."

"I don't care." Lance moaned. "I just want to be with Aurora is that too much to ask?" He said. Hunk sighed.

"Buddy it really doesn't sound like a solid plan but if it's what you want to do, try it out or whatever. Just don't be an ass to Keith afterwards if by some miracle Aurora does go for you." Lance picked himself up off the ground and smiled.

"Wouldn't dream of it. I'll text him tomorrow, see if he wants to hang out." Pidge looked up from her computer, frowning a little at Lance.

"You have his number?"

"Oh, no I don't. I'll ask Aurora though." Lance said with a shrug. "What're you saying to your brother anyways? Nothing that cool or exciting is happening down here." Pidge shrugged.

"Yeah I know. I'm just telling him about my weird friends and how one of them is trying to trick a girl into liking him." Hunk snickered.

"Hey!" Lance whined as they both began to laugh. "It's not funny!" Lance huffed as his friends continued to laugh before switching the subject to what Matt, Shiro and her father were currently doing up in space.  Lance barely listened though as he tried to lay out his plan in his head.  Could he really get closer to Aurora by getting closer to Keith? She had said she felt like Keith was a brother to her. So maybe he could. Maybe if he got on Keith's good side he could put in a good word for her and Aurora would have some kind of change of heart. Lance sighed. It was kind of a crazy plan but maybe, just maybe, it would work.
