Keith walked up to the door, the stuff in his bag that he was to give to Lance. He knocked on the door and the woman that Keith figured was Lance's mom opened the door.
"Keith is it? I am Lance's mom. He is upstairs in his room, second door on the left once you turn right." Keith smiled at the woman and nodded.
"Thank you madam." She laughed.
"Oh please. Just call me Lucena. Makes me feel much older then I am." She moved out of the way so Keith could step inside.
"You can not be much older then twenty eight." He smiled at Lucena.
"Oh come on! I am forty and you know it." Her face was red.
"I do not believe it for a second." He smiled at her one last time before starting up the stairs to Lance's room. He knocked on the door, hearing a muffled voice and shuffling towards the door. Keith pulled out the chocolates (Oreo Hershey bar and a box of assorted chocolates) and the box that held his surprise gift in it. He heard the footsteps stop and a mumbling before the door opened to reveal a red faced Lance that clearly was crying a little bit ago. Lance looked annoyed before he realized who it was and what he had. His whole expression changed to one of joy as he jumped onto Keith, wrapping his arms around his neck and a wide smile on his face.
"You brought me my favorite chocolates! Oh? And what is that?" Keith laughed at the confusion in Lance's voice.
"Let us go sit down and you will be able to see." Keith hummed. He still was trying to get used to actually being able to use his knee without crutches and had to get used to how his knee brace worked but it did not stop him from riding his bike or holding up his boyfriend.
"Okay?" Lance had a quizzical expression as he let go of Keith and went over to sit on his bed, only for Keith to follow and sit beside him. First Keith gave him the chocolates, which actually received a whimper from Lance.
"What is it Sharpshooter?" Keith looked Lance in the eyes as Lance pouted. "Do not be going all feminine on me." Lance laughed at that.
"Let me have the box!" Keith acted like he was trying to decide, placing his hand on his chin. "I am not so sure about that." He smiled before handing the box over to Lance who did not even hesitate to open it, staring wide eyed. He pulled the clothe out of the box and stared at the blue, purple, red and black material, scanning in every detail as more tears brimmed in his eyes. Keith would have been worried if he did not already know that the tears were tears of joy. Keith had remembered one conversation that he had with Lance a couple weeks before they had even been dating, well, it was the group talking about it and Keith was acting like he did mot care about what was being said.
It had been a week before the possible career ending injury that sent millions of The Mask Marmora's fans into a raging uproar. The gamg sat in their regular booth at the café. Lance sat on the outside of the seat, Hunk sitting next to him. Pidge sat across from Hunk, Allura by her side and Keith taking the last of  that bench. Shiro had pulled up a chair to the table from another table. Lance was on another rant about the Masked Marmora, Hunk listening, Pidge and Allura distracted by whatever was on Pidge's laptop screen, Keith looking off into the distance and Shiro just smiling at the group like he always did.
"The Masked Marmora has inspired me. I know that I will never be like him but I want to dance. I just... do not think we have enough money for a dance suit." Keith's heart felt like it had broke. He made a mental note to surprise Lance with a suit. Though he never thought he would give it to him in person.
"Do you want to try it on? I can step out of the room?" Keith looked at the expression that Lance had and just knew that he was speechless.
