I Love You Keith

Tricks

 It's been a week since Cornyval, and Adam is watching Shiro teach Keith tricks on the hover bike

Shiro POV

"Yeah Keith! Just like that!" he came to a stop a few feet away from me, pulling his helmet off. He had a huge grin on his faec. Adam walked over to us with some water bottles. "Good job guys. That one was a lot better than you first one Keith." He grinned "Thanks." and took a big swing of water. We had been outside for about two hours, working on tricks. Keith already had the hang of driving the bike, now we were working on shown man ship. He had perfected the jumps and turns, now he was working on aerial tricks. He was going to be a big help this year in class. "I think I'm ready to try some flips." I stared at him "NO. You don't even have a ramp." Keith rolled his eyes "We have sand and dirt. It if works for the other stuff, it'll work for this." I shook my head "Flips would be hard with the bike, no matter what you jump off of. We're going to do something else. Here, let me show you." I took the bike from him and got my helmet on. "Come on. I can't do it here." Adam raised and eyebrow "Can all three of us fit on that?" I shrugged "Yeah, I just can't drive as fast as I can like SOMEONE." Keith just smiled. We all go on and drove to the edge of a ravine. "Alright hop off. I can't do this with you guys on it."They climbed off, and I went back about 50 yards before going full speed ahead. I zoomed through the desert and off the edge. I plummeted downward, and right before I hit the ground, I pulled up the bike and zoomed forward to safety. 

Once I got back to Keith and Adam, Keith ran over to me with a huge smile on his face "SHIRO! You HAVE to show me how to do that!" I smiled "Of course. Flips are boring. Almost plummeting to your death, now that's interesting." I said with a wink. Then I noticed Adam. He was just staring at where I had jumped off. "Adam? You good." he looked at me shocked. "Wh-how did you do that?" I shrugged "I've had practice. And I'm the greatest pilot of my generation, so it was easy." Adam smiled and rolled his eyes. God I loved that smile. "Well? Are you going to teach me how to do it or are you gonna keep staring at Adam?" Keith asked. I shook my head "No, I'll show you. Hop on." I scooted back, and Keith sat in front of me. "You ready?" I asked, and Keith nodded. "Okay. Go." He sped off, and then, we jumped off the edge. "Yeah!" Keith yelled "Ok ok now..pull up!" H ebrohght the bars back and we coasted along the floor of the ravine. "Good job Keith. You really are a natural." "Thanks Dad." I smiled. Yeah, it was gonna be weird, him calling me Dad, but we would get used to it. "Now take us back. Turn up." "I know the way. I've been spending a lot of time riding around here. I know this place like the back of my hand." We sped off, up some different turns, and got back to Adam, who was lying ik n the sand. "Hey babe." I said, jumping off the bike and walking towards him. "Hey." I laid next to him "You good?" He nodded "Yeah. It's just boring waiting for you guys. And my legs hurt. I'm always either sitting for hours or standing for hours." I smirked "I can make your ass hurt if you want." "Shiro! No! At least wait until tomorrow. Then Keith will be out of the house." I sighed "Fine." I heard the engine rev, and then Keith was flying over our heads. "AAH!" Adam screamed, and I covered my face. "KEITH!" I roared, angry at him. He just took his helmet off and smiled "What? You guys were being all mushy and I want to go home. I chugged my water and I have to pee." I sat up and gestured to the wide expanse of desert "The world is your bathroom." Adamaughed and Keith cringed "Ew, no. Besides, aren't you expecting a call from the Garrison soon? Something about a mission." Fuck. I had forgotten about that. "Keith's right Shiro. They said they'd call around 6 and its." he checked his watch "Almost Five thirty. We should get going if we want to be there in time." I sighed "Okay." We all got back on the bike and started back towards the house. The Garrison was going ot be calling about a new space mission, to Kerberos, a satellite of Pluto. I was one of the possible candidates for the job, along with Matt and Mr.Holt. If we were chosen, we would spend the next six  months preparing for the launch. When we got home, I ran into the house, right as the phone rang. "Shiro here." "Congratulations Shiro. You're going on the Kerberos mission." I heard Iverson say. Holy shit. I got to go. "Who else is going?" "The Holt boys. They've already been told, and Mrs.Holt asks that you keep them out of trouble." I smiled "Of course sir." "That's all for now. Congratulations." He hung up, and I put the phone down. Adam and Keith were both waiting on the couch "Well? Did you make it?" Adam asked. I smiled brightly "Yes! I'm going to Kerberos with the Holts!" "Ahiro that's awesome!" Leith said, and him and Adam enveloped me in a hug. "I can't believe it. My fiance, the space explorer."

 "Don't worry, I'll come back."
