"What's wrong?" he asked | Klance

Shiro | Chapter 12

Shiro walks through door after a few minutes that Keith had left. "Lance. I'm here." He calls, walking to me, knocking.

I sigh, getting off my bed, and opening the door. "Is Keith gone..?" I ask. It's been awhile since I talked, so it's very raspy.

"Yeah." Shiro says with a small smile. "You want to talk about it?" He asks. I know what he's means.

"Yeah..." I answer, moving to the living room. I sit on the couch, Shiro next to me.

"So, what happened?" He asks, looking to me. I don't look back.

"I yelled at him from pend up anger. I confessed." Shiro knows my crush. He and Hunk are the only people who know about it. "I've stopped talking to him and..." I roll up my sleeves, showing Shiro my cuts.

He frowned, seeing every cut. Keith's name written. I didn't care. "He never said... he didn't like you back?" He told with a small smile and confidence but through a question.

This gave me small hope, but it quickly faded. "He has a boyfriend." I tell, pulling down my sleeve again.

"Had." Shiro smiled, hoping to give me hope. "He stopped dating Taylor about a week ago." He explained.

Keith never told me. But, that does explain his sudden mood change, I guess.

"He vents to me, y'know? He tells me things, things especially about you." Shiro explains farther. "I'm not the one who should tell you this," he pauses, as if dramatic for affect. "Keith really likes you Lance." He loses his smile. "But he thinks your not ready for a relationship. You have to love yourself, before you can love others." He tells, obviously hoping I don't lash out. "He wants the best for you, and he thinks the best is to let you heal."

I couldn't help but scoff. "Of course he thinks that!!" I yell crudely. "But..." I simmer down quickly. "I see why. He's just looking out for me..."

Shiro seemed relived that I didn't go farther than that.
