Here, Lancey Lance

Chapter 6

"Lance!"

Lance was walking back to his room to get dressed when he heard Allura's call for him. He struggled to hold back a smile, remembering the small prank on their dear princess. He would have to tell Pidge about this encounter after seeing how she left to her own room for changing.

He coughed into his fist to get Allura's attention when he got to her. She turned around, face full of rage and hair not looking quite as flow-ey as usual. "Hey princess, you look absolutely stunning if your hair didn't ruin it," Lance said in a joking manner.

"Lance! I cannot believe you!" Allura sounded genuinely furious and Lance's smiled dropped pretty quickly. "I'm sick of your games! This is absolutely horrendous! You're being so obnoxious and I don't understand why you are this way! For once can you not be so thick-headed and realize no one wants you to be this way?" Lance felt his ears flatten and his tail drop down as she continued to scold him.

He lifted his hands in surrender and gave a weak chuckle. "P-princess, it's not that big of a deal, right? It's just food goo; it can come out easily. I'm sorry-"

She stomped up to him with a huff. "You can't just say sorry, Lance! You mess around too much for a simple sorry to cut it," she seethed before retreating back to her room.

Lance stood, watching her go, ears back and eyes watering. Did she really think of him as such a nuisance? Did the others think the same?

He walked back into his room, locking the door. He really did not want to be bothered. He scooted to the corner of his bed with his pillow hugged close to his body. He thought how many times he had annoyed his friends and didn't realize. All he wanted was to make people happy. He didn't want others to feel such a burden on their shoulders from the war.

Did the team the entire time hate his attempted?

He felt a tear fall down his cheek and quickly wiped it away. He was not about to cry over this. He's strong enough. He's not a baby.

Though he didn't cry, he still felt a strong sorrow and lied down. With a heavy sigh, he shut his eyes and fell asleep.

.............................................

Knocking on his door, woke the blue paladin up. He stretched before straining his ears to hear the knocks again and once he heard them he slid off his bed and to his door. He opened it with a swoosh and came face-to-face to his best friends.

"Hey guys," Lance greeted, rubbing the sleep from his eyes.

Pidge put her hands on her hips. "Dude, you were supposed to meet me back at my room when you were done." Lance blinked and made an 'o' shape with his mouth.

"Man, I totally forgot." He chuckled and remembered why he hadn't gone back. He debated whether or not to tell them about what had happened only about, what he guessed anyway, a half hour before but decided against it.

Hunk raised a brow and asked, "What were you doing that we had to come and get you?"

"And that you still hadn't gotten dressed," Pidge pointed out.

Lance looked down and back up with a goofy grin. "I fell asleep. Gimme a sec and I'll head there after I'm done getting dressed."

"Nuh-uh," Hunk interjected. "We'll wait right outside your door for you. Seeing as we're supposed to be near you at all times." He gave a pointed look at the youngest of the three resulting in an eye roll between her and Lance.

Lance agreed though and after getting into his regular clothes ventured off with the others to the kitchen. When asked why they were heading there, Pidge said Hunk wanted to make cookies. They exchanged looks behind Hunk's back, knowing what's about to happen.

As soon as their lovable friend took out the ingredients, he automatically knew something wasn't right.

"How did you figure it out, yo!" Pidge threw her hands up while Lance laughed in the back.

"Guys, you act like I don't look at anything I make our food with. As a chef I should always know what every little food bit looks like," Hunk said with a finger and a smile playing on his lips. "But seriously, though, can you help me switch them all back?"

The three of them laughed but put them all back in their respectful places ad began baking. After the first batch Coran came in to see what was being made and ended up joining the three in their conversations. The second one came around and Keith and Shiro joined then the third and Allura walked in giving Lance a glance and acted as if nothing had happened. After the fourth and final batch came out the entire group was joking around and having fun.

Lance looked around at his friends and let out a happy sort of sigh.
