(36) Honey Lavender

[[Did I throw you guys off with the sudden Shiro p.o.v? 🙃]]

Shiro's p.o.v:

    Shiro had noticed the faint scent earlier when he went to get the boys for lunch, and remembered Pidge and Hunk's sudden need to run an errand into town earlier today. He figured Keith wasn't really sick and it was simply just his heat, and that he should just steer clear of their hallway from now on and use a guest room upstairs or something. It dawned on him that maybe he should talk to Lance about doing the same thing, but quickly shrugged that thought away since he didn't want to start a senseless argument. Plus, it simply wasn't his place to butt into their business.

    Now that he was was thinking about Lance he realized he was taking a bit to come out and eat, Shiro contemplated getting up from the table to call him for lunch again but then Lance rounded the corner into the kitchen before he could even scoot out his chair. Shiro just observed Lance grab his and Keith's servings of the calzones, and to his surprise Lance had glanced at him with quite a sour expression. 'Did I do something to upset him?..' He was dumbfounded as he thought over everything that's happened as of late, but he couldn't think of anything in particular the other could be holding a grudge over. The faint sound of a door slamming closed could be heard shortly after Lance had left, which only confirmed that the other alpha in the house was disgruntled about something.

. . .

  Impatiently waiting for the other two to be finished eating their meals was killing him, he had been done and trying to find a way to bring up Lance's attitude to the other's without it sounding like he was trying to start a fight or any petty household drama. Shiro was genuinely concerned he did something wrong to offend Lance and he had finally worded what he wanted to say in his head to the others. He knew they lied about Keith being sick at this point, and he was glad they'd look after him like that but it kind of hurt that they were keeping things like that from him just because he was an alpha. Not all alphas are like t h a t. Shiro figured they knew him better than that but maybe not.

Pidge and Hunk went to get up to bring their dishes to the sink but Shiro raised his hand to sit themselves back down. "Can we just talk for a moment or two you guys?" Shiro questioned, looking from Hunk to Pidge. He was very serious and that may have been putting the other two on edge but it couldn't be helped. "..What's this about?" Hunk finally piped up, breaking the silence. Pidge glanced over at Hunk with an uneasy look but quickly turned her attention back to Shiro. "It's about you two lying to me about Keith's condition, and I wanted to ask you two if you know anything about what I may have done to upset Lance." Shiro stated calmly, not letting his frustration show on his features. "Well I don't know any reason he'd be upset with you but we only lied because Lance asked us to keep it a secret." Pidge answered wholeheartedly, fidgeting with her soda can but keeping eye contact with Shiro. "I'm sorry we were lying about something like that, not telling you could've led to a mishap. I kept it a secret against my better judgement." She added quietly as she stared down at her half-full soda can.

"We were just helping a bro out, if that means we keep a little secret like that for Lance it's not that big of a deal is it?" Hunk questioned, obviously not registering all the possible issues they could have encountered with not informing the other alpha of the household that the omega in the house was in heat. "My room is in the same DAMN hallway, so it IS a big deal! This isn't a stupid little game Hunk!" Shiro shouted, then realized his mistake in raising his voice. "I'm sorry for yelling.. I'm pretty good about keeping my instincts under control but accidents happen, and an omega's pheromones in the middle of their heat cycle are overwhelming to say the least. I wouldn't want to put him in danger or even simply scare him with a possible situation like that. It's better off if you guys tell me these things ahead of time so I can just stay in a guest room until Keith's condition gets better. His suppressants won't be able to cover up his scent when it gets stronger in the middle of his heat cycle, in the beginning and the end it's fine and they'll handle it but they can't do nothing for him in the middle." Shiro explained, exasperated that he had to explain basic health class information. "For everyone's safety and comfort I beg of you to just t e l l me next time." Shiro pleaded with them, but it more or less was like he made it sound like a new household rule to Pidge and Hunk. He waited for them to nod or say anything. "Do I make myself clear?" He asked, kind of out of breath from ranting for so long. "Ok, got it." Hunk replied begrudgingly, probably a little butt hurt that he got reprimanded. Pidge nodded and took her dishes to the sink, then leaving with the rest of her soda.

Shiro sighed and got up and took his own plates to the sink, he decided he will just grab a handful of his things from his room and take it up to one of the guest rooms upstairs since he was going to be staying there for a while. He'd need his camera and makeup to record videos for his channel after all, couldn't disappoint his loyal fanbase. As he gathered his things and packed them into a backpack for easier transportation he still thought about the look Lance had given him a little while ago, still unsure of what that was truly about. 'Maybe it's just his alpha instincts just getting in a tizzy because the omega he likes is in heat and there is another alpha in the house?'-Shiro thought to himself as he went upstairs and picked out one of the guest rooms. No one really went up here for much of anything unless they wanted to chill out in the upstairs living room or enjoy the view from the balcony, so Shiro took this as a win in his book.

. . .

It's been a couple of days since Shiro had chewed out the other's for keeping Keith's secret from him and he was over it now but he still wanted to ask Lance if he was actually upset with him or not. There wasn't much opportunity to ask him though since he only went out of their room for their meals. All that was obvious was that they had gotten down to business in there with how their scents were mixed together on Lance's clothing, Shiro wasn't all that surprised. It smelt like Honey mixed with Lavender, he wondered why it had taken this long to really place what Lance smelt like. He knew he couldn't really place a certain scent with Keith because he regularly takes suppressants. But with Lance it's probably because it's more or less taboo to let your pheromones get out of control enough to become that pungent, or maybe because Lance never visited earth for long enough for him to notice- but still. Then Shiro wondered what he himself smelt like to others, he thought about it as he worked on a new makeup look on the balcony.
