Happy Valentine's Day (Klance/Allurance)

In the middle of a bright field stood the statue of a beautiful young woman. The savior of the universe who was loved by many people. A lonely figure was standing in front of it with teary eyes, holding a single, but beautiful juniberry flower. He was the person who had loved her the most, even after years passed by since she was gone. Lance gently placed the flower onto the statue, a light sob escaping his lips as he whispered “Happy Valentine's Day, Allura... ”

Moments of deep silence passed by which seemed like eternity. Lance's gaze traveled up to the top of the statue, examining Allura's lovely features. For a moment, it felt like she was still there with him. He could've sworn he felt her gentle hands stroking along his cheeks, but it might've been just the gust of wind tickling his face.

The silence was almost deafening, putting a heavy weight on Lance's chest. It was fortunately broke by a soft voice “Lance... We should go. ”

Lance's head whipped around from surprise, but his expression softened up as soon as he recognized the person. His boyfriend and the current light of his life. Keith Kogane. “Okay,” he replied in a whisper as he looked back at the statue for one last time. After that, he went over to Keith and hugged him without hesitation.

Keith let out a soft sigh as he held Lance in a tight but somehow still gentle embrace “She would be very proud of you” He moved his hand up into Lances soft, brown hair to stroke it and give comfort to the shaking boy in his arms. This statement and gentle motion earned a small smile from Lance. He looked up at Keith and stood a bit on his tiptoes to place a gentle kiss on his cheek.

The two walked hand in hand to a stunning clearing, full of bright green grass and all kinds of colorful flowers. The sun was bright and warm, just the way Lance loved it. Birds were chirping a cheerful melody to set the mood for the date. There was a decent sized blanket laying on the ground with a basket “You really planned a picnic for me? So cheesy!” Lance laughed, but the shine of his deep blue eyes showed how much he loves it already.

“I had the best teacher in being cheesy,” Keith replied, a smirk forming in the corner of his lips. He sat down on the blanket and patted the empty space next to himself for Lance to sit down. Lance plopped down next to his boyfriend, placing his hand on the top of his. He always sought some kind of physical contact. He needed a confirmation that this all is real and Keith won't just disappear in front of his eyes, just like Allura did. This was his deepest fear, the demon that wouldn't let him achieve true happiness. He was afraid one day Keith will be gone, and he will be alone once again.

As these thoughts ran through his mind, he found himself clinging onto Keith's arm by now. Keith never minded when Lance was like this. He knew how hard it must've been for him to let Allura go and learn to love again. He was grateful Lance chose to trust him and open up to him. By now, he made it his own duty to help him be himself once again. It felt like a noble quest.

“I'm right here, Lance... I won't go anywhere,” Keith said in a soothing voice which sent a wave of calmness through Lance's body. He hid his face into Keith's shoulder, taking in the sweet scent of his clothes. Surprisingly enough, it smelt like strawberry. This fact never failed to make Lance laugh.

“Let me guess. You still think I smell like strawberry” Keith said with a playful eye roll then planted a gentle kiss on Lance's forehead. “You know what? As long as it makes you happy, I don't mind it.”

Lance let out a soft sigh of content, staying in the same position. His arms wrapped around Keith's arm tight, sitting next to him. Sometimes he cuddled closer when he felt like needing more contact.

They spent their whole day with each other. They were joking around and teasing like they always used to before. The fact that they were dating didn't change this.
