They made their way outside and even more people were outside sitting in chairs and talking. Keith could not understand where so many people had come from.

Lance went to say hi to his father which was rather sweet. His dad was a much taller man than Lance with darker skin and black hair.

"Cómo estás Mijo!? Mucho tiempo sin verte."

Translation: How you been son? So long without seeing you.

"Ya se Pa. perdóname pero no é podido visitar. Todo el santo día ocupado. Se me hizo un milagro que me dejaron venir."

Translation: I know dad. Forgive me but I haven't been able to visit. I'm busy all day. It's a miracle they let me come in the first place.

"No pues que bueno que te dejaron visitar. Te hemos extrañado mucho."

Translation: no well it's good they let you visit. We've missed you so much.

Keith stood by again confused on what they were saying. Lance looked back and remembered Keith was still there.

"Oh shit I'm sorry Keith. I keep forgetting. Hey dad this is Keith. One of my friends from Voltron."

Lances dad didn't say anything. He stared blankly trying to understand what he just said. Despite Lances dad knowing English he still struggled with it.

Finally he responded.

"Nice to meet you." He said with even a bigger accent than Lances mother.

"Nice to meet you too Mr. McClain."

"Y las sillas Mijo?"

Translation: and the chairs son?

"Mierda se me olvidaron."

Translation: Shit I forgot them.

"Que no te oiga tu mamá."

Translation: don't let your mom hear you talk like that.

They walked back in and brought out the chairs. Once all the chairs were out they hanged outside.

That is until about 6 guys about Lances age jumped on him screaming "Lance." Keith knew by the way they acted that they were probably cousins of Lance.

They all laughed and teased him until they saw Keith again standing awkwardly a feet away. Then they all came closer inspecting the boy.

"You asshats better back off. He has a knife."

"Who is this your boyfriend?" They all asked laughing.

Lance started to blush.

"No pendejo. He's a friend."

"Really looks like that boy you wouldn't shut up about."

"CÁLLATE PENDEJO."

Translation: SHUT UP DUMBASS

"That boy?" Keith asked suspiciously but with a little smile.

"They're talking about Matt." He answered with a nervous smile.

"Didn't you say he had a mullet or something."

"VAS A VER CABRON."

Translation: ASSHOLE

Without warning Lance started swinging his fists around but Mateo was quick at ducking them. Then he grabbed Lance into a headlock,

"I was kidding Lance. Don't be mad."

"LET ME GO."

"I will if you promise not to fight anymore."

"Fine."

Mateo let him go.

"I'm just teasing you primo. I know it was Matt who you were talking about but I have to say this one is much hotter. You should've asked this one out instead."

Now it was Keith who was blushing.

"Ya cállate Mateo. Solo andas diciendo puras tonterías."

Translation: Shut up already Mateo. Your only saying stupid things.

"Ya relájate Lance. Estoy jugando."

Translation: Relax Lance. I'm messing with you.

Keith could not understand anything they were sayin but he wanted to join in the conversation. I mean how many chances did he get to tease Lance everyday?

"What am I not hot enough Lance." Keith teased.

They all laughed except for Lance who was blushing.

A girl came over with glasses and a ponytail. She had a handbag and keys in her hand. She looked just like Lance but a girl version.

"LANCE?!"

"VERONICA?!!!!"

Lance ran to Veronica with so much joy in his eyes. He hugged her and she played around with his hair.

"OMG!!! Lance you got so tall! Your even taller than me."

"Where have you been?!"

"I'm so sorry. I tried getting here as soon as possible but I was stuck at work. I just got out."

"Im so glad to see you."

"Me too hermanito."

She looked over Lances shoulder.

"I see you've said hi to all the primos."

"They're still being asshats. Teasing me like a child."

"Well your the youngest so you'll always be the baby of the family. Who's the hot guy in the mullet."

"What Keith?"

"Yeah."

"He's my friend. I invited him over."

"Damn he's fine. Should put a good word in for me."

"WHAT?!NO. NO NO NO. NOOOOOOOOOO."

"Awww come on. Help out your sister."

"NOOOOO."

"Why not?!"

"Cause uhhh he has a girlfriend."

"Oh really?!"

"Yes. He has a girlfriend."

She came closer to Lance making sure no one could hear.

"Don't worry Lance. If you like him I won't try anything with him."

"WHAT?!"

She walked away and came to Keith and the other guys. She said hi to all of them while Lance stood frozen on the spot where Veronica had left him speechless.
