Something Sensational (Klance Voltron Fanfic) (Keith x Lance)

Chapter 2

"So, Keith. Telling me I could perform in the park without a permit wasn't a way to set me up was it? Because if you're here to bust me, I really can't afford to pay another fine and I'm sure you'll agree that I'm way to pretty for prison." Lance said teasingly causing Keith to roll his eyes.

"Do you really think I'd go out of my way to give myself extra work?" Keith asked. "I just thought a walk in the park would be a good way to clear my head after a long day." Lance didn't need to know that he had been on Keith's mind since this morning. He also didn't need to know how long Keith mentally argued with himself on whether he should get involved or not.

"Aww, and here I was hoping you made a special trip just to see me again." Lance said with a playful pout. Part of him really was just teasing Keith but part of him was also really glad to see the officer again and hoped the feeling was mutual. After all Keith was the one to tell him to go to the park and then said boy just happened to show up. Was it really too much to hope that it wasn't just a coincidence?

"You'd have to be special for it to be a special trip." Keith said with a smirk. Now it was Lance's turn to roll his eyes.

"I'll have you know that I am plenty special, mullet boy. In fact I'm down right sensational." Lance said as he closed his eyes and crossed his arms. 'Damn this guy doesn't miss a beat does he? I'm going to have to keep my shots sharp with this one.' Lance thought to himself.

"Mullet boy?"

"Uh yeah. Have you seen your haircut because the 80s called and they want it back."

"Yeah well the only thing sensational about you is the fact that that word is even in your vocabulary."

The two boys glared at each other for about a minute before breaking down and laughing. It had been a long time since Lance had had someone to bicker and banter back and forth with. It also wasn't often that someone reciprocated his flirtatiousness nor took the bait when teased them. For Keith this was one of the dumbest conversations he had ever had. He couldn't even remember the last time he'd laughed like this. After the laughter died down Keith had an idea.

"I was going to get dinner after my walk, do you want come with me?" Keith asked. Since he had already gotten involved he might as he how far he could get, even though he knew how high the possibility was that this could end badly. He watched Lance hesitate to respond. Keith knew why, but he also knew this was a fine line to walk. If he became to pushy Lance's pride would be hurt, but if he wasn't pushy enough the Lance would be hungry and have no place to go tonight. Subtlety had never been Keith's forte so he would have to be careful.

"My friend owns a café in town. He makes these garlic puff things that are really good, well actually everything he makes is pretty amazing." Keith said. Lance was silent for a minute before his lips quirked into another playful smile.

"Do you ask all law breakers on dates, or am I just lucky?"

"A simple yes or no would suffice." Keith said sighing again. How could someone manage to be so intriguing and so irritating at the same time?
