TW: Suicide attempt and self-harm
*sips*
Keith POV
He... He slices to kill...
I try to tug my string to make him stop... But he doesn't.
This can't be happening...
No...
Not Lance! Please universe don't do this!
-NOOOO!!!!!- I scream as he strikes again, the feeling of deep slices in my wrist.
-What's wrong?! Keith are you okay?- Pidge ran into my room and saw the state I was in.
Tears streamed down my face as the color of the world blinked.
Then I remember... Pidge is Lance's neighbor.
-I have to stop him!
I grab a jacket and run. He lives in this block.
And I remember hearing Pidge say he was going to be home alone tonight.
Another deep cut. Another flicker of grey. Another river of tears.
I have to stop him.
I knock on his front door but no answer. Good thing his room is on the first floor.
I run around the house and find his bedroom window.
It's open.
I climb inside and find Lance sitting on the floor, blade in his hand ready to strike and a letter at his feet.
He probably heard me because he dropped the blade and pulled his string. It shortened and started glowing, illuminating the room slightly.
I didn't waste any more time.
I pushed the blade away from Lance and cradled him in my arms.
We are both crying.
The silence involves us.
And we stay like that for a while. Until I break the silence.
-Don't ever scare me like that again, McClain.
He nods.
-I... I missed you, Loverboy.
-I missed you too... And Keith?...
-Yes?
-...please don't leave me again...
•••••••••••••••••••
After not talking for a month, we spend every day together now.
And I can't believe a week ago I almost lost Lance.
After that night, Lance went to the hospital and I promised myself I would go to therapy.
I told Shiro about my soulmate bond. He hugged me on the spot. He didn't ask questions. He was just supportive.
When Lance got out of the hospital, we slept in each other's arms. Just to afraid one of us would do something and both missing the feeling of being loved.
It's now movie night and we are watching Love, Simon.
Lance and I, we are cuddling in the armchair and Pidge and Hunk are sitting in the couch.
The movie is really cute and when the name Blue pops up I always look at Lance. I enjoy being in his arms and love having him in my arms. I missed him so much. We are still healing from all the mess. I give him a quick kiss on the cheek and go back to watching the movie.
••••••••••••••••
We are walking home together after school. Because I live at Holt's, we can walk home together every day. It's nice.
We have homework to do so, I'm staying the afternoon at his house, which will be empty since his parents are working and his brothers and sister are at school.
The homework is fairly easy, and we get it done in ten minutes.
-So... What do you want to do now?-Lance asked.
-Maybe we can play a game or something?
-Like what? Truth or dare?
I shiver a little bit, remembering the last time I played that game... Let's just say it didn't end well...
Lance probably noticed I was uncomfortable because he quickly said:
-Or we could just chat?
-Seems good to me.
