It Started With A Derby (Klance Au)

Chapter 15

Unedited 

Enjoy~~~

"Hey Hunk, I was just wondering if you have an old dodge charger laying around?" Keith questioned over the phone.

The two males were still at the hospital, luckily for Keith, Lance went to get something for them to munch on. So Keith took the time to quickly call Hunk about the Derby.

"I believe I do. I'll double check. What's with the request?"

Keith looked around the room making sure that Lance wasn't around.

The shorter male got up and started to walk around the room. He didn't feel like sitting anymore.

"I'm entering a Derby. Lotor will be competing. It's my chance to destroy him." Keith muttered with determination.

"Oh. I see! After what he did to Kora, I'll be sure to make this car the best one yet!" Hunk replied.

"Thank you so much Hunk." Keith said.

"Why are we thanking Hunk?"

"Oh shit."

"I'll take that as my cue to leave. Good luck Keith. I'll talk to you later." Hunk said and quickly hung up the phone.

Keith let out a groan and looked up at Lance who stood in front of the shorter male with his arms crossed.

"H-hi Lance. How are you?" Keith questioned as he put his hands behind his back.

"What did you do?" Lance questioned.

"Nothing. Nothing at all." Keith said.

Lance bent down a bit and leaned forward so he was at Keith's height. "What did you do?"

Keith let out a sigh as he gave in. "I may have entered the fall derby."

"Keith! You said you weren't going to!" Lance exclaimed.

"I wasn't. Until I found out that Lotor was entering." Keith crossed his arms. "You knew didn't you?"

Lance ran a hand through his hair. "Shiro and I both knew he was entering but we decided not to tell you."

"Why?" Keith asked. "Why didn't you tell me!?"

"Because."

"Because isn't an answer Lance! So because why?!" Keith argued.

"Because. I-i"

"Why?!"

"Because I didn't want you to get hurt! Alright!? That's why!" Lance said trying to keep his voice down. "Lotor is dangerous! And you know it. We thought it was best for you to stay away from him until next year."

"Who are you to tell me what to do?!" Keith exclaimed. "This is my choice! Not yours, not Shiro's. Nobody's! Out of everyone I thought you would understand! I thought you would support me!"

"I understand why! But you could get seriously injured! Look what happened last time you and Lotor met! You almost lost Kora, Keith!"

"Which is exactly why I'm entering!" Keith cried out.

"Um excuse me Mr. Kogane."

Keith glared at Lance before looking over at the doctor.

"I'm sorry!" Keith said.

"That's alright. Your sister is out of surgery and is asking for you." The doctor said as he held a clipboard. "She's back in her room now."

"Thank you. I'll be right there." Keith smiled.

The doctor nodded and left the room.

"We aren't done with this." Keith told Lance before he left to go to his sister.

Lance groaned as he was left alone. "He's just to stubborn!"

"Don't I look cool!" Kora giggled as she stared at herself in the mirror.

"You look amazing!" Keith said.

"I'm just happy I can see again!" Kora said as she hugged the doctor. "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!"

The doctor smiled and patted Kora's head. "Just doing my job kiddo. So just like last time, take this medication to help with any pain you may have. If there's any issues come back right away."

Keith nodded. "Of course. Thank you."

The doctor nodded. "You're free to leave." He said before leaving the room.

"I'm going to school right?" Kora asked as Keith tucked her into bed.

"If you want to." Keith replied.

"I do!" Kora exclaimed.

"Okay. I'll be sure to get you up." Keith said kissing the small girls forehead. "Goodnight Kora."

"Night Keefy."

Keith left the room, closing the door behind him.

The male stared at his and Lance's shared room before heading towards the living room.

Keith and Lance were obviously still upset with each other.

"I don't understand what the big deal is." Keith mumbled to himself as he lied down on the couch and covered himself with a blanket. "It's just a Derby, that Lotor is competing in."

"Which is exactly why it's a big deal." Lance's voice chimed in.

"I went up against him before. So why are you making a big deal out of it now?" Keith asked not moving.

"Seriously?" Lance scoffed. "Do you not remember what happened?"

"I do. But I need to beat him." Keith said. "And you know this. Like I said earlier, out of all people, you should be the one to understand why I need to do this."

"There's no stopping you is there?" Lance questioned.

Keith felt the couch sink in a little as he felt Lance lean against his back.

"I need to do it Lance." Keith said quietly. "Are you going to support me or not?"

Lance sighed. "Fine. Just try not to get hurt, please."

"Me get hurt?" Keith asked jokingly. "Please."

"Keith." Lance mumbled.

Keith turned around to face his boyfriend.

"I'm sorry, for keeping this from you." Lance said. "I worry about you. We all do. And just Lotor is getting more dangerous than he already is. We don't know what could happen next."

"All we can do is try." Keith mumbled.

Lance sighed and wrapped is arms around Keith, pulling him onto his lap.

"If he does anything, I can't promise that I won't do anything." Lance said nuzzling his face into Keith's neck.

"You know." Keith said as he turned around to face Lance. "I think you fighting someone would be pretty hot."

"Oh yeah?" Lance questioned raising an eyebrow.

Keith nodded and placed his forehead against Lance's. "I mean, you look really hot when you get pissed off. So you just fighting, would look even hotter."

Keith bit his lip as he imagined Lance fighting, but what really got him was that he imagined Lance ripping off his shirt and tossing it on the ground as he lunged at the person he was fighting.

"Don't do that." Lance said as he moved his thumb against Keith's lip.

"Don't do what?" Keith teased as he bit his lip once again.

Lance stood up quickly, causing Keith to wrap his legs around his waist.

"You better hope Kora doesn't hear us." The taller male hissed as he walked towards their shared room. "So you better keep quiet."

"Mmm no promises." Keith mumbled placing a kiss on Lance's lips.
