Lance leans against Keith on the car ride down to wherever they were going. He was falling back asleep.

"What time is it?" He asks happily, Keith looks at Lance and chuckles.

"Six o four."

"Why are we awake so early?"

"You want to get down there before it's too dark?" He asks, Lance cuddles into Keith's shoulder.

"I value beauty sleep." Lance fell back asleep, Keith leans his head against Lance's and watches the road go by quickly. Shiro was with Lance on the whole falling asleep thing, Allura was the only other person awake. She looks at Keith.

"Guess it's just us."

"Guess it is." Keith looks outside. "How far is this place?" He asks, Allura looked at her GPS then back on the road.

"A few miles."

"As in another state?"

"Yeah."

"Damn we couldn't take a plane?"

"Shiro didn't want Black to be uncomfortable."

"Still don't see why we need to bring Black with us." He stares at the kennel at his feet, Black was giving him his usual sassy look. They continued the quiet car ride down to where ever. 



"So what's the plan?" Lance asks while shoving a breakfast sandwich in his mouth. Keith looked at Lance and poked his face.

"Don't talk with your mouth full."

"Fight me." Lance said, he swallows and asked again. "So plan?"

"Well." Allura was in the passenger side now. "You'll see once we get there."

"Aw, I have to wait?"

"Yes." She nods. Lance pouts and finished his food. After a while he grew bored and watched things fly by outside. The whole car was quiet, even Black was silent.

"So how long are we staying?" Lance asked.

"Two days not counting today." Allura said.

"Alright." Lance said and looked out the window again, the whole car was silent. It was boring.

"I spy with my little eye... something grey."

"Road." Shiro said.

"Dammit." Lance pouts. Shiro smirks.

"I spy something... ... blue."

"Was it that car that just went a hundred by us?" Keith asks.

"Nope."

"That billboard?" Lance asks, Shiro shook his head. Allura gave her boyfriend a look.

"I swear to God if it's the sky-" He grew a playful smirk. "Dammit Shiro." She giggles. "Okay okay, I spy something... red."

"That sign." Keith said.

"Well that was fast."

"Not a lot of red things out there. Alright I spy something... arcadian." He said. Everyone went silent. Keith just stares at everyone. "What? I said I spy something arcadian." He said again, and again nobody said anything.

"The people whose first language is English have no clue what the fuck you just said, how am I supposed to figure out what that word means?" Lance asks. Keith points at the large garden they were driving by.
