Modern AU

Lance walks home from the hospital with tears swelling up, not prepared to tell his boyfriend the news. He takes in a deep breathe as he gets closer to home. He never liked giving bad news to his family or loved ones. But now he had no choice. As Lance walks up to his apartment building he feels the tears going down his cheeks and his heart begins to race. He steps into the elevator and goes up to the seventh floor and makes his way down the hall to their door. As he pulls out his keys their next door neighbours open their door, who happen to be their best friends.

"Lance! How was-" His best friend cuts himself off at the sight of his best friend crying. His other friend rushes beside him and puts a hand on his back. "I'll tell you guys together." Lance manages to get out without choking up.

He opens the door and Keith is cooking in the kitchen, he turns to his boyfriend with a smile but that fades when he sees his boyfriend crying.

"What's wrong?" Keith asks and Lance sighs and motions everyone to follow him to the living room. They follow him and they sit on the couch, Lance sits on the coffee table in front of him.

"As you know I've been at the hospital all day to see why I've been in pain the past month or so." Lance begins and tries to look them in the eye. "They've ran tests on me all day and I've had multiple x-rays done, and they've come to the result that..." Lance trails off and looks down at his palms. "L-Lance you're scaring me." Keith says as he shifts himself in his seat.

"I-I have cancer."

His friends go quiet and his boyfriend starts to cry. Hunk sits there in shock and Pidge has tears forming. Lance sits there, angry at himself. He was angry that he won't have time to be with his friends. He's angry he didn't get to what he wanted with his boyfriend as planned. He promised Keith he'd never leave and now, time is running out.

"I-I'm just transitioning into the last stage... Doctor said I have at least three weeks left, he told me to spend it well. So that's what I'm planning to do." Pidge starts sobbing and Hunk starts crying. Keith wipes his tears and taking a breath in attempt to calm himself. "We've already lost Allura to cancer! We can't loose you too!" Hunk says while hugging Pidge tightly. Lance has more tears forming, he moves to sit beside Keith and brings him into a hug. "Doctor was surprised that I could be so strong in this stage, she determines I'll slowly decline in strength over the next three weeks." Lance tightly hugs his boyfriend. He hides his face in his hair, Keith begins to sob and Lance whispers, "I'm so sorry Keith." Lance gets out then starts sobbing.

It's been hours and the four sit together crying and trying to figure out how to tell his family. Then Keith thought of an idea, "I think we should tell them a couple days before." Lance looks at Keith with confusion. "Before what?" Keith just sadly smiles at Lance.

"I wanna marry you Lance."

Lance goes wide eyed and more tears fall down his cheeks. Lance smiles and takes ahold of Keith's hands. "I'd love to marry you Keith." Lance pulls Keith into a kiss and Keith kisses back with all the love he can.

"We can go to city hall this Friday, I'll tell them tomorrow." Lance says while standing up, "Can I leave you to plan the wedding?" He turns to Pidge who nods quickly, "Of course! Also can we talk in private?" Lance nods and the two walk into his and Keith's shared bedroom.

"Keith told me about the surrogate problem." Lance tenses. "He told me that the fertilized egg is frozen and ready to go." Lance turns away from Pidge, he really wanted to start a family with Keith. "Lance, I'll be your guy's surrogate." Lance turns to her in shock and she fondly smiles at him. "Pidge I can't let you-" Lance starts and she just smiles. "Let me do this for you, let me make you happy one last time." Pidge says then bringing him into a hug. Lance begins to sob and she lets go of him and she walks out of the room to give him space. Because she knew that this is all overwhelming.
