Lance closes his locker the next day and felt something hit his back.
"Hello Pidgey."
"Hi!" She hops on his back like always. Hunk walks in moments later with Keith next to him.
"Hey guys." Lance said. "How is everyone?"
"Good." Hunk said.
"Great." Keith said. "I'm going back to the cafe today."
"Oh?" Lance tilts a bit, Pidge moved with him. "Can I come back and work? I mean Allura is okay with me now, right?"
"Uh... yeah. Yeah I guess she is. We're friends again...aren't we?"
"Of course." Lance nods. Pidge and Hunk smile. Hunk pulls everyone in.
"Aw group hug!" He shouts. "We're back together! The group is back together again!" He sounded way to pleased. The others were being crushed in the hug, poor Lance was in the middle.
During lunch Pidge held up a bag of skittles. She points at Lance, he looks over and quickly swallowed his sandwich. He opens his mouth and catches the candy. Hunk watches.
"Do you two have to do this?"
"Yes! Celebrate all of us being together again!"
"Yay!" Lance threw his arms in the air while catching another skittle. Keith chuckles and went back to his food.
"Just let them have their fun." He said. Pidge threw a skittle at Keith, he panics and picked up the skittle that landed on his leg. He pouts. "Aw, yellow..."
"Ha ha." Lance laughs at him. Keith begrudgingly ate the skittle.
"So do you feel better Keith?" Hunk asks. Keith looks up.
"Um, why?" He asks.
"You were in the hospital."
"Oh yeah. I feel better, much better. Though this band-aid is starting to itch." He showed his friends the band-aid on his arm. Hunk about threw up while Pidge looks at it.
"Take it off."
"No. I wait to take it off." Keith said. "I don't want people to see where my IV was."
"Thank you. Thank you for thinking of others." Hunk said. Keith rolls his eyes and went back to eating.
In gym the whole class had to play matt-ball because Coach had no plan for the day. Lance was all alone on the other team, Hunk, Pidge, and Keith gave him a wicked smile. They were plotting against him.
"Going down McClain!" Pidge shouts.
"No thank you." He whimpers.
"I think a little payback is in order~" Keith sang.
"Payback?!" Lance asks.
"For breaking your promise."
"I-I thought we were friends again!" He panics. Keith walked away. "Keef! Keefer, I love you! I'm sorry!"
"Oh I love you too, but you're gonna get it." He smirked and walked away. Hunk and Pidge point at Keith to signal whose side they were on.
"TRAITORS!"
"You broke our friend group." Pidge points out.
"I know we're best friends bro, but they're right." Hunk follows. Lance worried about this one match.
