Resolved: yes
Background: on his misson with Korlia, Keith sees a fash foward from the future. Its of Red and Blue together.

   Keith and Korlia were on their mission. A flash foward came and a image of red and blue came together to create purple. Then Lance's voice sounded and a faint 'I love you' could be heard.

   Keith has loved Lance for quite some time. He hoped that the flashback meant that he and Lance would possibly end up together. Red and Blue are their colors so it made sense. He smiled and leaned back, basking in the happiness of what the future possibly holds.

-Two Years Later, When They Return-

   Keith settled in. He had been called to the bridge so that they could discus what happened on the mission.

   He stood in the doorway, taking in the scene in front of him. Lance and Allura were... kissing. They spotted Keith in the doorway but before they could greet him he turned away and went to his room.

   "I'm going to see if he's okay."

   Lance entered the hallway with Keiths door. He had really missed Keith. He had even slept in his room and cried if he couldn't sleep or was really sad about him being gone. But Allura made him feel better. It still a dull ache in his chest but it lessened with the company of Allura.

   A series of knocks were heard on his door Keith only sighed and buried his head deeper into the pillow. He realized what that flash on the missoin was. Once they switched lions, Keith wasn't red, but Lance was. And Allura was blue. They were probably together. Keith mentality kicks himself for not realizing this sooner and getting his hopes up about Lance.

   "Hey Keith, you okay?"

   Keith shoots up from his bed. 'Why is Lance here? Go back to your girlfriend' he grumbles. He clears his throat and walks to the door. He stands with his head leaned against it and speaks to Lance.

   "Yeah I'm good " he says. But his voice betrays him and it sounds weak. It breaks in the middle of the sentence, leaving Keith to cringe and run his hands in his hair. He lightly tugged as he did so, causing sharp pains to run through him.

   The door opened from Keith's weight and he fell foward. Lance sees him and catches him.

   "No you're not. Please don't lie to me."

   "It's fine. I'm fine." He says quietly. Lance hugged Keith to his chest. Tears trailed down Keiths face and he tightened his grip on his hair. He felt Lance's arms let him go only to be placed on his arms.

   "That hurts you, please don't do that."

   Keith let go but instead of hugging Lance, //A/N - surprise, i didn't do something predictable// Keith took a step backward and out of Lance's reach.

   "Lance, it's fine. Don't worry. You cant help it."

   Keith walked back into his room. Lance stood there, trying to figure out what had happened and what was wrong with Keith.

   He silently went to his room and cried. Because all he did for two years was miss Keith and now he hated him.

-After season 8-
//Allura is alive and has started a colony on Altea//

   Lance had broken up with Allura. They knew they weren't gonna work out and didn't mind actually. He had realized that he liked Keith a while ago and that's when they officially broke it off.

   Keith had been avoiding Lance since he came back from his mission. Almost 3 years had passed. And Keith really wanted to see Lance but he was upset too.

   The team was visiting Altea. They did this once a year so that the team stayed close. It was mandatory.

   Right now, dinner had been finished and the paladins were in their lions. Lance nervously approached the Black Lion.

   "Hey buddy. Can you bend down so that I can talk to Keith?"

   The lion bent his head down and allowed Lance access. He walked in and called out to Keith.

   "Hey Keith. Buddy I'm here and I was wondering if we could talk?"

   Keith walked into the cockpit in his boxers and a tee shirt. Lance could feel heat crawl up his neck and settle on his face and ears.

   "Yeah what's up?"

   "Look, I really don't want you to hate me but it's been on my chest for a long time. I like you."

   Keith stared at him with a blank expression. Then, not saying a word, he grabbed Lance's arm and pulled him into the bedroom aboard the lion. Still not saying anything Keith wrapped his arms around Lance's neck. Finally speaking up, he whispered next to Lance's head.

   "I like you too"

   Lance sighed with relief. He wrapped his arms around Keith.

   "Thank god" Keith chuckled, the sound filling Lance's ears, making him happier than ever.

   Keith moved his head away from Lance's neck.

   "Will you pick me up. Sorry if it's weird, but I've always thought about what it would feel like to -"

   Keith shrieked as Lance picked him suddenly up by his thighs.

   "Thank you, my Sharpshooter."

   "Anytime, Mullet."
