The school day Keith came back from his suspension lance picked him up as he usually did and brought Keith some coffee as he grown use to a different flavor latte everyday, he only agreed to lattes due to the foam was his favorite part.

They walked into school holding hands and everyone looked at them as they talked like normal people but everyone noticed something was different. They boys felt something different too, maybe how it wasn't a forced fake relationship anymore, how they felt comfortable with each other, not doing it for revenge but to be happy with each other. Everyone noticed it.

Or maybe it was the rumors of Keith cheating on lance, while the rumor of lance sleeping with Lotor wasn't even mentioned, lance didn't know if it was because people liked him more than Keith or Lotor really never told anyone and no one found out. Either way, he didn't like the way people scoffed at Keith as the black haired boy ignored them all.

"Your not bothered by everyone are you?" Lance whispered in his ear as they stood in front of Keiths first hour class.

"No, I've been use to rumors, but also by the way James looked after I kicked his ass I know nothing to bad will happen," Keith smiled up at him.

"I'm trying my best not to gush and be a cliche boyfriend but your fucking adorable," lance squished Keiths cheeks together as Keith glared up at him.

"You better not be a cliche boyfriend, no gushing and no pet names," Keith pushed him hand off him as lance laughed.

"What about mullet?" Lance cooed.

"Only reason I let that pass cause it's not common, Your the only one that has a problem with my hair," Keith groaned.

"I don't mind it anymore, it's freakishly soft too..." lance combed his fingers through Keiths hair in awe. 

"Don't worry your still prettier than me," Keith wrapped his arms around Lances shoulders smiling.

"I know," lance kissed him smirking but Keith flinched at the cut on his lip.

"You know that still hurts," Keith pulled away.

"And I'm pretty sure I still have a concussion that was never taken care of," lance sang a little as he let go of his boyfriend.

"I'll see you at lunch idiot," Keith snorted shaking his head walking into his class.

Keith sat down as the bell rung as he went on his phone waiting for the teacher to arrive and saw the picture on his screen was different as it was a selfie of lance winking with a little of his tongue sticking out with his free hand finger gunning as rosy and Leo where popping their heads in as Keith was sleeping against his shoulder.

"Did he really steal my phone while I was sleeping?" Keith mumbled laughing a little as he didn't know how he didn't notice before.

"You and lance aren't really still dating?" A girl looked over Keiths shoulder scoffing.

"Um yes?" Keith raised an eye brow not recognizing the girl.

"God he's to good for you," she glared sitting behind Keith.

"I agree, but we worked things out, like any straight couple would do too," Keith turned to her as he looked at the girl with long dark brown hair and blue high lights and low lights in her long pigtails while she had a coral color beanie.

"But cheating? Your lucky to still have lance," she scoffed again shaking her head as Keith looked at her. Her skin was sun kissed while she had a jelly fish tattoo on her wrist with a fish tattoo behind her ear.

"And who do you think you are exactly?" Keith raised an eye brow.

"Names plaxum Keith," she held out her hand as her turquoise eyes had a sense of adventure in them.

"So?" Keith said flatly.

"I dated lance before Allura, and after Lotor, I was friends with him and hunk for a while, we did swim together in middle school before it became girls and boys swim which is stupid, but we use to be best friends in middle school," plaxum shrugged smirking at him as Keith looked at her unamused.

"Okay," he shrugged turning around.

"Just don't do that again, we may be exes but doesn't mean I don't care about him, he's my friend," plaxum tapped his shoulder again.

"I don't plan on it, we where just dating for fun but now we're in a more serious relationship," Keith sighed blushing a little and plaxum looked at him but nodded.

"Good, And I'm sorry, I was bitchy, but I heard with you and Shiro so I kinda get it," plaxum nodded smiling softly.

"You like to talk a lot don't you?" Keith asked flatly.

"It's mostly just espresso that's talking for me," plaxum shrugged.

"Are you two done chatting?" The teacher glared at the two students.

"Nope," plaxum pipped up.

"Sorry ma'am," Keith turned back as he waved off plaxum.

"Tell lance I say hi too, and that he still owes me my fucking marine biology book," plaxum hissed at Keith.

"Okay just shut up jeez," Keith groaned laying his head on the desk as the teacher waited annoyed.
