Keith's POV

It was cold.

But my hand felt warm, hot, even.

People were talking somewhere.

The voices were gentle and calming. Comfortable feeling fell upo me.

But it was still cold. So very cold.

"I'm sorry"
"so, so sorry"

It was dark.

No.

I was covered in blackness.
Drowning in deep black ink.
I was just an empty shell of a once happy and innocent child.

I wanted back the good old days.

"Who am I?"
"Who was I?"
"What am I"

"You are useless"
"unimportant"
"worthless"

"-th?"

                       "-eith?"

                                                   "Keith?"

Someone's calling my name.

It was a nice sound.

I haven't heard someone call my name like that in, oh so many years.

The voice was so full of love and comfort.

It...

"M-makes... M-me feel.... A-all fl-fl- fluffy i-in-inside," I stuttered almost soundlessly.

"What was that?" I heard Shiro asked, a smile in his voice.

"What was what?" I heard another voice ask. I didn't recognize it.

I opened my eyes one at a time.
First I was met with a complete darkness. I opened my right eye and a blurry light hit my eye.

I was able to make out two figures.
The one nearest to me was Shiro. The other one was tall, lanky, a bit muscular.

Shiro noticed my questioning expression and spoke up. "It's Lance, you remember? One of Pidge's friends?" I nodded in response.

I tried to sit up, but Lance stepped close to me and landed his warm, very warm, hand gently on my chest.
"No, no, lay back down. I think you should rest a bit more," Lance said. I just closed my eyes again and nodded in response.

I woke up after awhile.
"Good evening princess," now I've learned to recognize that flirty, annoying voice, that belongs to Lance.
"W-what?"
"Y-you d-do know t-that I-I'm a m-man, r-right?" I questioned.

"Yes, I'm very aware," Lance said.

But while I'm not publishing chapters in this book, go ahead and read my other book
(Drop in the ocean of blood)
I think that book needs at least a Lil bit love too
