Lance tried to focus on what was being said he really did, but how was he supposed to focus on anything with Red being so fucking cute! Callum did not help the situation. Both boys were arguably the cutest boys Lance had ever seen.Keith in a "How-are-you-even-illegal" kind of way and Callum in a "Can-I-please-God-adopt-you" kind of way. Either way, his ADHD had said whatever was being said by the Arusian wasn't worth his attention. The way the soft breeze made Red's bangs sway, the soft purr that the others couldn't hear, how he held Callum close, almost parentally, on the other hand, needed his undivided attention.
Lance nipped at the inside of his lip, getting between his teeth, just enough that it wasn't noticable to anyone, trying to force his focus on the conversation. His eyes stubbornly flicking back to Red.
He silently cursed himself, picking at his skin hoping the little pricks would distracted him from Red. They didn't help.
What finally pulled him out of his trance was a heavy hand on his shoulder making Lance almost jump out of his skin.
"Try not to zone out so easily cause of a pretty face," Shiro smirks with a knowing smile.
Lance felt his face burn up under his skin, "S-sorry," he mutters in embarrassment."Don't worry, we're all guilty of it," Shiro shrugged giving him a comforting pat on his shoulder before removing his hand, "Come on, he's going to take us to his village," Shiro said following Allura and the Arusian away from the castle.
Lance nodded following his hero as the older took his place beside Allura behind the Arusian, Pidge talking to Hunk behind them, Rayla looking board beside them.
The little elf meet Lance's eyes. Hers lit up, running up to him. Lance on instinct picked her up and tossing her up, before lifting her over his head and onto his shoulders. The little elf laughing excitedly, wrapping her arms around Lance's forehead. The Blue Paladin joining in on her fun, tickling her sides lightly, getting little squeals.
"Cute," Red smiled walking past them, Lance's face going cherry red, as the Misfit, walked in front of him.
Weather the swing in his hips was natural or teasing Lance didn't know, but he lived for it!Rayla giggled to herself, quietly chanting, "Kiss, kiss, kiss!" in Lance's ear.
"Believe me I want to!" he muttered to the little girl.
She squealed loudly, throwing her hands in the air, leaning back a bit to far. Almost falling off if it wasn't for Lance pushing her back up as she started to slip."Kiss him!" Rayla squeaked in his ear.
"You don't just kiss people!" Lance protested, "You have to work up to that!"
"My uncles kiss all the time!" Rayla argued.
"Are your uncles married?" Lance asked.
"Yeah, so?"
"I'm not even dating Red! I can't just kiss him!" Lance protested, "I don't even know if he likes me!"Rayla face palmed, "He likes you! Why would he call you cute! Duh! Do you not know what flirting is!?"
"Yes! I know what that is!" Lance glared at the little elf indignantly.
"Than flirt back, or kiss him!" Rayla said, gesturing wildly to Red.
"I-"
"Just do it! Or are you too scared?" she taunted.Lance sighed, grumbling under his breath, walking up to Red. The shorter ignoring him.
"What, my beauty catch you speechless?" Lance tried.
"If that's your best pick up line, no wonder you're single," Red shot back, a playful smirk on his face.
Lance huffed, "Please if I tried I could have reder than your Lion," Lance taunted.
"You mean like I can do without trying?" Red smirked turning to face Lance, tilling his head slightly, somehow looking adorable and like an asshole at the same time.This boy was going to be the death of Lance. The Blue Paladin looked away, his face red. Red laughed at that.
"You know, for the Blue Paladin,you sure do seem to like red," the raven teased.
"Hard not to when you ware it," Lance smirked back."You make blue look half decent," Keith teased.
"Please, I make everything look great," Lance smirked."You know what would look really good? You to together," Rayla interrupted.
"She has a point," Callum muttered."Hey! Let me use the pick up lines!" Lance protested, tickling Rayla again.
"You're taking to long!" she whined.
Red laughed, pecking Lance's cheek, making the Blue Paladin go scarlet."Happy?" Red asked, her teasingly.
"Wait," Rayla said, leaning Lance's head back so she could see his flushed face, "Very!" she said letting his head go.Red laughed, meanwhile Lance was still trying to figure out what the hell happened.
"I think he's broke," Callum said, poking the Cuban.
"You might be right," Keith agreed, wrapping his hand in Lance's.
The Blue Paladin opened and closed his mouth to protest, or say really anything, but nothing came out.Red pulled Lance closer, so their arms were touching. The Misfit seemed completely unfazed by the closeness of them. That, however, was all Lance could focus on.
