Lance looked at the clock that Pidge made for them, It was an hour before it strikes midnight. An hour before his birthday, and Every hour before his birthday he has to celebrate it by singing his song of the year

It kinda was a tradition in his family actually, every birthday, before midnight each person must do something that is very special to them in front of the whole family.

Each person has a unique way of celebrating it but his was singing, each year he has a song that helps him cope and each year it changes, this year though is kinda different

This year he isn't only going to sing, hes going to play an instrument too considering that his family isn't here to do the music he has to do it alone this time

Sure he can ask his friends but he doesn't want to be a bother anymore, he always rely on his team it's time to be independent

Besides he felt as if the others are avoiding him anyway

A week before his birthday everyone suddenly seemed so distant, always talking in hushed voices and whenever he tried to bond with them they always find an excuse not too

Sure he pretends to brush it off but it kinda hurts considering it's gonna be his birthday in a week.

When the clock strikes 11:00 pm he began to ready himself, he fixed the strings of his blue guitar that he bought at the space mall (which cost him a fortune mind you), his hair, and of course tried some vocalizations first

He took a deep breath before starting

I found a love for me
Darling just dive right in
And follow my lead
Well I found a Boy beautiful and sweet 
I never knew you were the someone waiting for me

Lance's mind immediately went to the first time he ever laid eyes on Keith, it was back at the Garrison, he and Keith accidentally bumped into each other.

From that day forward Lance always thought that Keith looked so Handsome, but now he was sure that he is Handsome, Hot too

'Cause we were just kids when we fell in love
Not knowing what it was
I will not give you up this time
But darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I own
And in your eyes you're holding mine

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

He always says that he was jealous of Keith, yes that is true but there is a different reason for his jealousy.

He's jealous of him being so....Perfect

Which made him love the other even more

Well I found a man, stronger than anyone I know
He shares my dreams, I hope that someday I'll share him home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we're so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we'll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my boy, I'll be your man
I see my future in your eyes

Sometimes he dreams of having a family with him, having him tell him that the feeling is mutual

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When I saw you in that dress, looking so beautiful
I don't deserve this, darling, you look perfect tonight

Baby, I'm dancing in the dark, with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
I have faith in what I see
Now I know I have met an angel in person
And he looks perfect
I don't deserve this
You look perfect tonight

After he was done he wiped the tears that rolled down his cheeks. Suddenly a knock was heard outside his door

"Lance? Are you in there?" Even though the voice was muffled, he was so sure that he was Keith.

Lance sniffled "Uh y-yeah yeah I'm here" He immediately grabbed the nearest cloth and scrubbed his face

He changed his clothes, considering it was a bit wet from the tears, and went to the door but not before hiding his guitar.

He was greeted with the hybrid's face "Come on you're late, the team called a meeting but you didn't came" Lance felt embarrassed, he didn't hear anything while he was playing.

They walked towards the kitchen for who knows what reason. Like who sets up a meeting in the kitchen?!

Suddenly the lights all went off. Lance looked around anxiously "Keith..?" He called out suddenly all the lights went on and it showed the team and they suddenly all screamed

"HAPPY BIRTHDAY LANCE!"

Everyone was huddled together with a large cake in the middle, blue decorations filled them room, banners that are hollow graphic which says the words "HAPPY BIRTHDAY SHARPSHOOTER!"

Lance felt tear welled up in his eyes, he choked out a shoked gasp, so this was what they were working on

"Thank you...Thank you all"
