This one was requested by user39862610 and I'm glad to be writing it because it's a really old one but a good one.  Here. Yee. GooOoOoOOooOoooOOO! (I'm so professional)

Third P.O.V

"AH WHAT THE HECK IS THAT!?" Keith shouted, pointing to a chair. Lance chuckled a little.

"Calm down silly. It's just a chair" he said. "You sit on it. Like this"

He picked up Keith who was surprisingly light and put him on the chair. Keith seemed to freak out a little before looking at the chair in amazement. Hunk came into the room with some food. He had made the equivalent to Earth waffles, except they were blue. Keith looked at it, poking it a little.

"What is this?" He asked.

"It's food. Waffles to be exact. Try them. They're really nice" Hunk explained. Keith slowly picked up a waffle and took a bite. The second he did he started taking huge bites, enjoying it a lot.

"You like it?" Hunk asked.

"I love it" Keith said, finishing the plate already. Hunk beamed at him.

"So Keith, tell us a little bit about yourself" Shiro said, sitting opposite Keith.

"Uh well.... I'm 18 years old. I lived in a single room my entire life. My parents were killed the second they had me. Oh yeah, also I overheard someone say I'm part human part galra? I don't really know what that means" He mumbles, smiling a little.

"You're part human? Incredible" Shiro said, looking interested in the subject.

"How did you learn how to count?" Pidge asked, generally curious.

"Well the guards outside my door talk a lot so most things I know I learned off of them. I don't know much though" Keith said. Suddenly, one of the mice jumped up onto the table. Keith let out a squeak and fell off his chair, backing away from the mouse.

"Keith, relax. It's just a mouse" Lance said, picking up the mouse.

"W-Well I was told mice could eat me! Or was that snakes? I don't remember" Keith said, scratching his head.

"I promise you everything on this ship is completely safe" Shiro said, helping Keith up.

"... C-Can we go into a slightly smaller room? I don't think I like all the extra space all of a sudden" Keith said, scratching his arm. Lance smiled at him and took him by the arm.

"Of course! This way" he said, leading everyone to a spare bedroom.

Once they arrived Keith stared at the bed intensely. Sure, he'd seen a mattress before, but not an entire bed. He felt like it could eat him whole.

"Come on Keith, it's just a bed" Lance said, pulling the duvet up.

"That looks like a monster and it's going to swallow me the second I lie there" Keith said, stepping back, away from the bed.

"You had a mattress in your room. What's so scary about a bed?" Pidge asked.

"Well my mattress didn't have that thing on it!" Keith shouted, pointing to the blanket. Lance picked up the blanket and put it near Keith, making him back into Shiro.

"D-Don't put it near me!" he yelled. He soon calmed down when Lance brushed the blanket against Keith's face gently. He'd never felt something so soft. He nuzzled his face into it and Lance chuckled.

"See? Harmless" He put it down on the bed and Keith followed, sitting down on the bed. He lied down and hugged the blanket close.

"Feels nicee" He said, rubbing his face against it. "C-Can you get me more stuff like this?"

"I'll get it!" Hunk offered, leaving the room to go and find more soft objects.

"Do people normally sleep with these things?" Keith asked. Lance gave him a nod.

"What else do people sleep with"

"Well sometimes people sleep with other people" Lance said, wiggling his eyebrows. Shiro elbowed him and Lance chuckled.

"Really? Can someone sleep with me then?" Keith asked innocently. Lance burst out laughing and Keith just looked confused. Shiro rolled his eyes.

"Just ignore him, Keith. People don't sleep with other people unless they're in love with them. Just forget he mentioned it" Shiro explained. Keith looked confused but didn't ask further questions.

Hunk walked in holding a pile of blankets, soft toys, hot water bottles and other nice objects to snuggle with. He plopped them all on the bed and Keith stared in awe.

"Here look, this is called a hot water bottle. It keeps you warm" Hunk said, putting the hot water bottle on Keith's lap. Keith picked it up and put it to his face, smiling happily.

"Oh and I found some more blankets" Hunk said, wrapping them around Keith. The small boy ran his fingers along all of them, liking how they felt.

"This is so nice.." He said, cuddling all of it.

"If you think this is nice you've got a lot of things to look forward too, my friend" Lance said.

"What's a friend?" Keith asked.

"It's someone you trust and someone you like to hang out with" Lance explained. Keith smiled at him.

"Well uh... you're my friend too then"Keith turned to everyone else. "You're all my friends"

"You should get some rest, Keith." Shiro said. "You can explore more tomorrow"

"Okay" Keith replied, snuggling into bed. Everyone left the room, leaving Keith alone. The second everyone had gone Keith realised how much he hated it alone and how much he wanted to be by someone. He got out of bed, bringing the blanket with him for confidence. He then started running down the corridor, looking for someone to be around. He started tearing up, in fear of being alone again. He couldn't find anyone. Why couldn't he find anyone.

He stopped in his tracks when he walked into a big room. The doors closed behind him and Keith flinched. He didn't know how to open them again. He had no idea how doors even worked.

He quickly began panicking, hating all this extra space. He felt so overwhelmed by everything. It was all too much. He began hyperventilating and crying, wanting someone to be with him.

Suddenly, the doors opened and Lance stood there, a worried expression on his face.

"Keith? What's wrong?" He asked, putting his hand on the boy's shoulder.

"I d-don't wanna be a-alone again. P-Please don't leave me alone again" He said, sobbing into his hands.

"Hey, it's okay. I can stay and help you fall asleep if you want?" Lance offered, smiling softly.

"O-Okay. C-Can we get out of this room please? I-It's too big" He said, already starting to leave. Lance nodded and they headed back to Keith's room.

Keith lay down in bed, hugging the blankets. He kept rubbing them on his cheek. He didn't know why but he enjoyed the feeling of it. His arm started getting tired so he lay there, eyes open, waiting for sleep. Lance moved to grab one of the blankets and Keith freaked out.

"Don't leave!" He shouted. Lance knew Keith didn't want to be alone but he didn't think it was this bad.

"Hey, relax. I'm not going anywhere" He replied, taking the blanket and rubbing gentle circles on Keith's cheek with it. Keith began relaxing and looked at Lance with half lidded eyes.

"Goodnight, Lance" he slurred, already falling asleep.

"Goodnight Keith" Lance replied, watching as Keith's eyes closed and he fell asleep. The second Keith did Lance moved Keith over a little, shuffling into bed with him. He then hugged Keith protectively, feeling shocked when Keith wrapped his arms around him too.

I guess people do sleep together then, huh.
