Klance One - Shots || DISCONTINUED

47. Rumours (Fluff)

High school AU

Warnings: The mention of sexual abuse and the mention of the word fag! Do not worry, I have no hatred towards the LGBT community! It's just for the story.

"Did you hear about McClain?"

"I heard he sexually abused Nyma."

"I heard that he has many side chicks."

"I also heard that he beat up Rolo, like how can you be so mean?"

"Never mind that, I'm kinda scared to be around him now."

Lance sighs as he starts walking down the hallway of his high school with a hoodie on with the hood covering his face. Rumours spread fast, Lance just makes his way to his locker quickly to get his things. He was going to be homeschooled now because of the incident from over the weekend. It was ruled that Nyma and Rolo were lying about everything and had framed Lance. The school and the authorities agreed that Lance hadn't done anything, so they allowed him to go back to school just yesterday. Lance got glared at and had many different mean things said to him, and it went on all day. It's going to keep on happening if he stayed, so he made the decision to go online with the school's online school. The school was sad to see him make this choice, he was such a happy soul and was one of the best students when it came to musical theatre.

Lance was popular and he was happy, then a run in with Nyma and Rolo ruined his high school experience.  Lance never wished this happened to him, he just wanted to go to school with his childhood friends and graduate with them. Now they're going to have fun experiences without him, he can't really stand all of the hate for something he didn't do. He also felt like he let down his family by doing what he did.

He did beat Rolo up, he was protecting them from a gang in the city, the Galra. The two didn't want to let the pride be ruined so they had lied, there was two witnesses, Lance's best friends Pidge and Shiro. No one really listened to Pidge when she spoke the truth about what happened, Lance had told her to forget about it and he was going to move on from it. Pidge and his other friend Hunk felt bad because he was so excited for this year's musical, Beauty and the Beast. They have been in two weeks of rehearsing already and he was Lumiere, the director absolutely loved him. Everyone did, not because he was popular, because he was so friendly and kind. Then those two sabotaged his high school experience.

Lance puts his books in his bag and someone comes up to lean up against the locker, Lance flinches and looks up. He's shocked to see another childhood friend of his. "Keith?" He smirks at him and looks at everyone giving him looks. "What are you doing here? You're supposed to be gone until the end of may?" Lance pulls him into a hug, "Dude, did you forget I have a winter break?" Lance chuckles, "How was your semester?" Lance forgets about everyone's stares and just has a conversation with his friend. "It was fine, boring because you guys weren't there." Keith chuckles and so does Lance, Keith has always had a crush on his childhood friend. He knows the truth, Shiro was the one who brought Pidge to the hospital because she got hurt during that fight and saw Lance defending Rolo and Nyma. He was doing the right thing, he even had the Galra captured as well. That was overlooked by everyone, even his family. But Shiro and Keith knew what he had done.

"So I heard what happened." He says so everyone could hear, Lance hides his face in his locker. "Yeah he did such bad things, it's horrible, how could you be talking to him?" A snotty blonde girl from Lotor's gang says, Keith only scoffs and turns back to Lance. "From what I heard from the authorities, Lance defended those two scum bags and even managed to hold those three Galra members which led to the capture of the whole gang." He says loud enough for the people in the back could hear. Everyone starts whispering and Lance turns to Keith with tears. Keith sadly smiles, "Lance also has never had side chicks, how could he when he's gay?" Before Lance could react to the fact he publicly outed him to the entire school. Keith pulls him into a kiss, knocking his hood off and everyone starts whispering louder and you can hear gasps. Keith is taking a major leap here, he doesn't really know he'll react to this kiss.

Lance also had a crush on Keith, most of his childhood was them two being together 24/7. Everyone saw that this was going to be a relationship in the future. They were kind of sad when Lance and Keith had to separate in middle school. Keith was just learning that his family is a part of a gang and he spent time with his mother he didn't really know, and Lance grew up to be very prince like while Keith was gone. In high school, when Keith spotted Lance with the popular girl Allura while walking the hallway and Lance didn't even look his way, his heart broke. He saw him flirting with her with his arm around her shoulder, Keith looked at Lance with a sad look. Lance was only trying to get rid of his feelings because he didn't Keith swung that way, he tried his best to act straight. Lance had noticed Keith that day when he returned, he thought it'd be best if he didn't go run up running to him. He thought they needed distance and the two only drifted apart. Keith was in a gang, barely went to school, and had a bad reputation upon him. They still talked and hung out whenever their friend group hung out, but they just weren't as close as they were before Keith found out his mother was in a gang. Lance knew his sexuality and he knew he should try and stop his feelings.

Lance can't helped but be surprised by the kiss, he hears all the whispers about him being disgusting. Lance doesn't care at this point, he kisses Keith back and wraps his arms around Keith's neck. Keith smiles into the kiss and pushes Lance against the locker, "Gross, get a room you fags." One of the snobbiest girls spits out, the two pull away and that's only when she notices the back of Keith's jacket, "W-Wait you're part of-" She stops herself, and Keith only smirks when he turns to face her. "Lance is going to be going to school here just like you, he's done nothing wrong and now leave him alone. He's a happy soul, and look at what you guys done to him." Lance scratches the back of his head, his dark eye circles are very prominent and he's pale, he has no colour. Everyone looks at Lance and he just turns around to put his things in his locker again. "I'll be by his side the entire time, so I hope you don't want to mess with me." Keith says while putting his bag in Lance's locker. "Now, let's go to the office so we can get you back into school." Keith kisses Lance's cheek and he smiles, Lance decides to take off his hoodie and he closes his locker. Keith takes ahold of his hand and drags him to the office. As the walk to the office Lance can't help but smile, they stop at the corner before the office and Keith pulls him into another kiss.

"I promise to protect you and make you happy." Lance chuckles and pecks him on the lips, "You've already made me happy." Lance has a tear going down his cheek. Keith wipes the tear away and leans his forehead on Lance's, "I hope you're ready to be a part of gang life." Lance only chuckles again, "Keith, I pissed off Zarkon, I think I'm ready." Keith chuckles and pecks Lance's lips again. "I'll make sure to protect you with all costs." Lance only shakes his head and pulls him into a passionate kiss. After the two pull away Lance only smirks, "I'm not much of Prince you may think I may ought to be Keith, I kicked three Galra members by myself." Keith only chuckles and kisses Lance's forehead. "Let's go my little fighter." Keith drags him around the corner and into the office, the two are going to have a very different life from now on.

Sorry guys, I know I said I'd be writing. I just have been really busy.

There's been two deaths where I'm from, and I've been doing my duties of what I'm supposed to do considering my ranking. I've also gotten really sick when I got home and still trying to get better. I'm sorry :(

I am considered a princess where I'm from, and I'm simply doing according to traditions. I also have to attend a wedding in a couple days so my schedule has been really full since I got home from school.

I'm really sorry, there will be some updates maybe but I'm trying my best.

C.J Out~!
