Grey Paladin | Pidge x Reader (2018)

22

(A/N) In honor of Valentine's day (My least favorite holiday but whatever) here's a little fluff and happiness. Let's just say... The calm before the storm. You'll understand soon... *Evil smirk*

Your POV
Pidge and I decide to go talk to Lance, to clear things up. Then go find Keith. However, when we open the door to Lance's room (without knocking cause we're rude) we're greeted by a comforting sight. Keith and Lance laying on Lance's bed. Looks like they worked it out themselves. Shocking.

"Hey guys." Pidge says calmly. They both sit up.

"Yeah?" Lance asks.

"What's up?" Keith asks.
They both look confused.

We both have a seat on the edge of the bed.

"Can we talk?" Pidge asks.

"Uh, sure?" Lance answers.

"What made you think we wouldn't like you anymore if you had told us?" She asks.

"Yeah," I add.

"I- I don't know." He sighs. "I guess the main thing I was afraid of was word spreading and my family finding out."

"Oh, are they not supportive?" I ask.

"Not of that. I was always told that was a bad thing." He sighs.

"Oh," I nod. "My grandparents aren't either, they didn't like it when Shiro told them."

He nods.

"But we are." Pidge adds. "I mean look at us, we're all some kind of LGBT in some way."

"Yeah," I laugh slightly.

Pidge smiles.

Lance laughs. "The air in here is getting too gay."

I laugh.

"The gayer the better!"

All four of us laugh. Leave it to Lance to lighten the mood with a dumb joke.

Pidge and I eventually leave them alone and head back to her room.

"Jesus, your room is a wreck!" I laugh. It's always that way, but I overreact to irritate her.

"Shut up." She laughs.

"Clean your room," I laugh.

"Hey, you're not my mom!" She laughs.

"No, but your room is a mess." I say, "Here, I'll help you!"

"Nah, you don't have to." She says.

"But I'm going to anyway."

She rolls her eyes at me. I help her clean her room. When we're done she sits at the desk, and shows me some of the things she's been working on. Experiments, gadgets, and other things.

"Wow," I say, leaning on her shoulders as she sits in her desk chair. I sit down on the edge of her bed, and listen as she explains the things she's been working on. I like listening to her talk about that stuff, it's relaxing.

She eventually gets up from her chair and sits with me.

"Wanna try taking a tour again now that we know our way around better, and not getting lost this time?" She asks, extending out her hand.

I take her hand, and laugh.
"Of course."

Keith's POV

I lay there, arm around Lance who appears to have fallen asleep already. I turn to face him. Yep, he's asleep. I burry my face in his chest.

"I love you," I whisper.

He's the only person I've been able to open up, and be myself with. Before I met Shiro and [Y/N] I didn't have anyone, then I lost that and was alone again, and now I have them back, and Lance. I think when I was younger since my mother left me, and my father died when I was a child I shut everyone out. I was scared of being abandoned again. Now, I'm a little less scared.

I love Lance. I'm glad to have him. I don't think I've ever thought that of someone.

I feel his arm wrap around me. Safe. That is how I feel at this moment. Safe. Happy. Even loved.

This has been a good day after all.

Your POV

We walk around the castle awhile, laughing the whole time. It's late, so we try and stay quiet. We actually manage to not get lost this time.

Once we round the corner to the hall where our rooms are we both walk to my room.

"Wanna sleep over?" I ask.

"Sure, I'll be right back!" She smiles.
She leaves to go grab something, and I change into my pajamas and have a seat on my bed.

Five minutes later, Pidge bursts through the door with two boxes.

"I've got something really cool!" She smiles.

"Show me!" I say, excited.

She sits down on the other end of the bed, and opens one box. There are two smaller rectangular boxes stacked on top of each other. She pulls out the first.

"This is an Altean board game Coran showed me the other day." She explains, setting it on the bed.

She pulls out the other box. "And this," She says, smiling wide in excitement. "Is a video game Lance and I bought at the space mall!"

"Cool! But... What are we going to play it on?" I ask.

"That's what this box is for!" She says, grabbing the other box, and lifting off the lid. There's what appears to be a television-looking gadget.

"Did you make that?!" I ask, in admiration.

"Yeah, it works too, so we can play it on there." She smiles.

"You're on!" I laugh in a competitive tone.

She gets to work setting up the game.
