I sank down in my bed letting out a big sigh.

I want to feel at home in the place but I can't.

I thought about the events that just went down over and over again searching for an answer or any kind of sign.

"LANCE WHY ARE YOU LATE?! AGAIN?? WHY!? IF YOU KEEP ACTING LIKE THIS I WILL PILOT BLUE." Allura screamed. Everyone sat silently at the table nodding their head in agreement.

"But princes-" she cut me off before I could finish my sentance. "NO BUTS I WILL NOT HESITATE TO REMOVE YOU FROM THIS SHIP," just before I left she mumbled ", I guess I have to try to pilot blue soon."

Fuck that. I thought. I ran to blue and sat on her paw sobbing.

"You wouldn't replace me? Would you?" My eyes looked down at the floor and stayed there. My body shaking from all the sobbing being done.

'I would never abandon you.'

"I dont feel at home here. I hate It. None of them like me," I praise for a minute to think ", blue, I'm going to do plan B. Promise to let allura in. She's not bad..." Before blue could protest I left to my room.

I racked my brain for a different answer to this mess but I couldn't think of one. That's when I heard a know at the door.

"Hello my boy?" It was Coran.

"Oh hey, Coran." I said, my voice uneasy.

"I heard you earlier when you talked to the blue lion..."

My blood ran cold. He heard what?

"I just wanted to say, where ever someone's thinking about you is where your true home is. And I- i will think about you for you to stay. However, if you truly want to leave you can. But I am here for you." I started sobbing again.

"Thank you, thank you so much, Coran. I'll think about you too." I smiled. He took this as his queue to walk away so he did.

I layed in bed for a few minutes then I got up to take a shower. I turned on the warm water making sure its the perfect temperature my sticking my hand under it.

Blazing hot. Perfect.

I striped down and stepped on letting the water engulf me. I took the 2 in 1 lavender scented shampoo and conditioner and rub it all over my hands then lather it into my hair. As I let that sit I grab my face wash and put it on. I rinse out my hair and was my face. I took some body wash and scribes my body. Making sure to be cafeul around the wounds from battles.

Rinse everything off and step out of the shower wrapping a towel around myself- lady style. Once I stepped into my room I threw on a purple t-shirt and black jeans.

I walked into the hall way trying to find Coran. I seemed like I had walked an hour but I had only walked for like 10 minutes. I kept on walking until I found him in the cryopod room cleaning them up.

"Hey Coran!" I brightened up with a smile.

"Ah yes hello lance!" He shouted back with the same energy.

"I just wanted to stay thank you. You know for helping me."

"No problem lance! Anything for my best bud!"

I let out a laugh and asked if I could help him clean the pods. As I helped him clean we each shared funny stories about our selves.

I told him about the time when I was at a party and someone took out a glass and inside was a weird liquid and they said " hey is this whiskey or perfume??" So I took it chugged it and loudly stated " its perfume." He was laughing for a while after that.

It has become a routine of mine to help Coran keep the ship clean and have fun chats with him. I was about to go help Coran when Allura and the rest of the paladins stopped me.

"Lance, why are you ignoring us? You never talk to us. A good team needs to communicate!" She gave me a harsh glare when I just started at her confused. "That means talk to them! Tell us why you have been avoiding us!"

"You guys haven't come up to me. If you would I would kindly have a talk. I dont always want to start the conversation. I am sorry if it feels as if I'm avoiding you. The only person I really would avoid is you allura. I would avoid you because all you do is yell at me and honestly it hurts my feelings." I tried to stay as calm as possible.

"Lance! This is unacceptable! How dare you speak of me in that way!"

" I'm sorry allura I was trying to communicate with all of you."

Hell yea I just used her own words against herself. Beat that. Next pidge joined in defending me against the princesses harsh words.

"Allura you need to cool it. Lance did nothing wrong." Then Hunk got enough courage. Then so did Keith. Soon everyone was on my side telling Allura to back off.

She stood there looking down feeling ashamed of her self. That's when she did something that truly shocked me. She apologized.

"Lance, you and the Paladins are right. I have been cruel towards you. It's just I've been under so much stress with defeating the Galran empire I took it out on you. I am sorry. And I dont expect you to trust me right-" I cut in.

"Hey it's okay Allura. I accept your apology. And I want to thank you all for being on my side."

We all shared a group hug then parted. Once again this week I sunk down in my bed. I let out a giggle.

The stars welcomed me with open arms and I finally feel at home in this place.
