Grey Paladin | Pidge x Reader (2018)

Your POV

"Are you sure you're going to be ok on your own?" Shiro asks to Pidge through the headset.

"I'm fine," She laughs a bit, but then her tone changes to sound more serious. "I'm one step closer to finding my family, this is a chance I have to take."

"If you need me I'm one headset call away." I say, reassuring.

"I know. But there's still so much work you guys need to do. I'm fine on my own, I swear." She says. "You work hard, you deserve it."

I laugh. "Just, don't take 5 years."

"I won't. We'll hang out when I get back." She laughs.

"Promise?"

"Promise."

And just like that, she's gone. She found some evidence, and believes she knows where Matt might be. She was adamant about going on her own.

Shiro's been back with the team, and is feeling better. But, he's been acting... Weird. I don't know, just not himself. He snaps at everyone when he's annoyed, and has just been different. But, I don't know. Maybe he's just messed up from being captured and tortured by the Galra twice, I guess that'll do it.

3rd person POV
*Flashback!*

Ever since Keith left for the Blade of Marmora, Lance had not been taking it well.

~"Keith, please! Don't do this!" He pleaded. But, Keith wasn't having it.

"Look, I'm sorry Lance but this is what I have to do." Keith says, beginning to walk away.

"Keith-" Lance once again Trys to plead.

"You said earlier that if that's what I feel is right to do, you'll support me! Why the sudden change?" Keith says.

If words could kill, Lance would be six feet under. That hurt, not physically, but emotionally, that hurt.

"Keith, I said that when everyone else was there. You know I don't want you to leave! We need you! I need you!" He says, wrapping his arms around Keith in an embrace.

"Lance, I love you. But I have to do this. I'll be back, I promise." Keith says, a single tear making it's way down his cheek.

"I know." Lance whispers, a tear falling down his cheek, landing on Keith's shoulder. "I love you too. I- If this is really what you want to do then... Then I support you."

Keith quickly kisses Lance. "Thank you." He smiles. And just like that, he's gone.~

Keith had kept some communication with the team, but Lance still wasn't happy. He missed him. He loved him. Lance was filled with anger and love, two contradicting emotions so similar yet, so different. As if there was a hole in his chest where his heart was supposed to be. Empty. That's how it felt without Keith there.

Your POV

"Good work today guys." Shiro smiles.

"Thanks,"

"Hey! Pidge is back!" Lance points out the Green Lion landing.

This is it, she either has Matt with her... Or she doesn't and that's... Not good.

She walks out of the lion, and Allura's mice run to greet her. She picks pets them, and smiles. Then... Matt walks out of the lion behind her.

"Oh my God!" I yell, running up to them. I tackle Matt in a hug.

"[Y/N]?"

"Glad you're ok!" I say, letting him go, and standing by Pidge.

"God, I haven't you in forever either." He laughs.

Pidge introduces him to everyone, Matt starts going insane over Princess Allura, Lance just looks pissed every time he talks to her.

"Aye, McLain! You're dating someone, remember?" I laugh at him. He rolls his eyes, and gives me an evil look.

"S- Shiro?" Mat says nervously, looking up at my brother.

"Hey Matt," He says.

"I- It's good to see you again, sir." He says, extending out his hand to shake Shiro's.

Shiro doesn't shake his hand though, he catches him off guard by hugging him.

"Let's take him on a tour!" Pidge suggests grabbing my hand, and pulling Matt and I inside.

We take him on a tour of the castle, and actually have a lot of fun.
