Winter Tree (Voltron: Legendary Defender Fanfic/ONC )

Fragments

He honestly didn't care that Keith chose to escape again. What Lance cared about was that everyone else seemed to care that Keith had decided to escape. The exception, of course, was their Pidge who in fact helped him escape. That Allura had a worried look on her face which bothered Lance greatly. He hated the idea of any Allura having any kind of positive feeling towards Keith.

Hunk was, of course, panicking about Keith leaving the room and that Lance attempted calming him down, but finally settled on going after Keith. Allura decided to give them some privacy but headed to the front to wait for that Keith which honestly irritated Lance. "Seriously. Can you believe that the Keith and Allura from this world are together?"

"Yes."

Lance turned and looked at Pidge in horror. He opened his mouth, but Hunk interrupted. "Yeah, I am."

"Really? You didn't think that Lance dating Allura in our world was really the weird thing?"

"Excuse me?"

Their Pidge looked him in the eye. "You must be really delusional to think she suddenly started liking you." She turned her head towards Hunk. "And you? You weren't surprised that Allura decided to date Allura?"

"Well..." His Hunk glanced away.

"Hunk!" Lance swallowed.

"Sorry, but she's right. I mean, I want to be supportive of you Lance, but..."

"Come on! You said that you were surprised Keith and Allura are together in this world!"

"I'm surprised that your surprised when it's obvious those two like each other."

"Well..." Hunk glanced away.

"Hunk!"

"Our Keith is kind of shy."

"Hell, he is!"

"Oh, right." Their Pidge let out a laugh. "And he's socially awkward and asking a girl out is way out of his comfort zone."

"What about me! Asking Allura was outside of my comfort zone! I'm the one..."

The Pidge he really didn't like now snorted. "You're kidding, right?"

"Hunk! Tell her! I didn't ask Allura out until our last day on Earth because I was nervous."

"Really? Or was it because you knew she'd turn you down?"

"She didn't!"

"Which I never got."

"Excuse me?"

"Pidge..." His Hunk, of course, tried getting everyone to get along.

"Seriously Lance did you ever ask yourself why she went out with you despite the fact she finds out annoying!"

"She does not!"

"Really? How do you know that?"

Lance hated the fact Pidge was, in fact, digging into him about the situation. "How! Because Keith told me Allura wouldn't go out with me unless she liked me!"

Mean Pidge stared at Lance as if he were an idiot. A deep sigh escaped her lips. "Yeah. Keith is the worst person to get that kind of advice from."

"Oh, and you're so much better!"

"Hunk..." Mean Pidge looked right at his Hunk.

"Please don't bring me into the middle of this."

Mean Pidge looked Lance in the eye. "How about pity?"

"Shut up!" Lance found himself heading towards the door in anger. He honestly hated her right now, but his arms crossed his chest in frustration. He didn't know where he was going or how long he was gone, yet somehow eventually found his way back. What he did know was that he ran into Sven and their Keith along with that really obnoxious Lance, but that their Keith had a rather dejected look on his face. "Oh. So you got caught by a version of Shiro who's actually willing to punish you?"
