plaza

The Tronvol Plaza was more of an outdoor mall, if anything else. There were a variety of name brand stores, small unrecognizable shops, and restaurants of all types.

Keith, being one of those kids who never goes out except for school, had never been there before, but he knows that Shiro had a part time job in one of the smaller shops there once.

Keith assumes this is why Shiro chose it as the group's hangout, because he was so familiar with the area.

"We usually just walk around, get something to eat and sometimes shop if we have money on us," Shiro explains, waving his prosthetic for effect. Adam nods besides him, glancing back at Keith to make sure he was following along.

"We meet in the center of the plaza. At the huge fountain with those lions spitting out water, can't miss it." Adam adds as the three of them weave through the small crowds of people. Saturdays were one of Tronvol's busiest days, it being during weekend.

"Okay, cool." Keith mused, stuffing his hands into his pockets. Shiro glanced at him and hummed in amusement. He was still in shock, he had not expected Keith to want to go with them.

In fact, Shiro assumed he wouldn't want to, so he never asked him. It wasn't until Shiro told him he was going out that Keith jumped from his bed, and slipped his shoes on, tagging along. It was odd, to say the least.

Keith had sort of cleared it up by adding that Lance had invited him on friday, but Shiro still didn't really understand why Keith decided to come. It's not like Lance was forcing him to.

"There's Pidge and Allura," Adam pointed out as they approached the Tronvol fountain. Keith shuffled behind Shiro, not really wanting to make conversation with either of those girls.

"What's up fuckers?" Pidge grinned, waving from her spot a the fountain.

"Hey Pigeon," Shiro responded, saluting back.

"Where are the others?" Adam questioned, sitting down beside Allura. Allura blew a raspberry.

"Um, I pretty sure Matt's not coming, he's with his girlfriend today. Romelle will be here in a few, Hunk and Shay are hanging out, so they might be here in an hour or so. And Lance? No idea, not sure if he's even coming."

"Fucking better," Keith mumbled under his breath, frowning. There was no way he was about to hang out with his brother and his boyfriend, and a bunch of girls he wasn't even sure he liked or not.

"I see you got the vampire out of his cave," Pidge smirked. Shiro and Adam laughed and Keith found himself staring down at Pidge. Did he like her?

She's...cool. I guess. I can do without the Lance comments though.

"Hello!" Romelle chirped as she made her way over to the group. She greeted everyone sweetly and wedged herself in between her girlfriend and Adam.

Romelle's sweet. Wouldn't hurt a fly.

"Hey love," Allura smiled, pressing a sloppy kiss onto Romelle's cheek. Allura though?

On thin fucking ice.

Though Allura was okay and all, something was just off with her, it made Keith iffy. Not to mention her Lance comments were worse than Pidge's (and hers mostly ticked Keith off). It's just...the way she said them made them a lot more personal, and (what Keith assumed was) too close to home.

Allura's probably the one who says "Hush Lance," the most out of all of them (minus Keith of course). Pidge following close behind. Keith just wasn't that fond of her, that's all.
