Her Smile~Shiro x Reader (Slow Posting)

*Chapter 11* - The Chase

Heyyoooo

-----

Things have been pretty crazy here since Lotor told everyone about the whole reward deal. Acxa has been extra irritated, most likely because she got the job to listen to the radios at all times incase someone spots Voltron and says something.

We left that planet soon after I came back with news that team Voltron was there. Now we have someone constantly watching the radar. Were still not sure how no one noticed that they were there before, but were trying to take more precautions now.

If im being honest I missed the paladins. The heros of the world. I was stupid when I left them, I see that now, but I cant go back. They'd lock me up and never let me go on missions. I don't blame them. I don't have a lion anyways.

They were protective, but they cared. Especially Hunk with his big heart. I really did miss them. Pidge with her weird ideas at 3 AM in the morning. Lance with his constant ego, which was funny to me. Keith with his humor that you would really have to be paying attention to or you wouldn't get it. Coran with his songs. The princess with her wise words and kind gestures, and of course Shiro. Shiro's compassion and determination is what drew me in, but it was his caring nature that stole my heart.

No one could replace him. Even if he replaced me, it was okay. It would hurt, but as long as he was happy, I would be okay.

On the bright side, with me gone, they wouldn't have the Galra constantly trying to capture me. They would also have one less person to worry about. So all in all, this was for the best. Even if it hurt, it was the right decision.

"Are you ready?" Lotor asked me while he entered the tent.

We were about to go to a local town that was taken over by the galra empire and take it back.

"Almost." I nodded grabbing my laser pistol and strapped it to my waist, "okay, ready." I stated grabbing my pack full of the essentials and slinging it over my shoulder.

Lotor pulled back the the mesh door for the both of us.

"Its just us and Ezor today." He told me leading the way to where we would meet Ezor and go on foot to the town.

I nodded and rechecked all my weapons and pulled my hair up into a ponytail (if you have short hair, just do whatever with it)

Ezor finally showed up after about five minutes of waiting, "what took so long?" Lotor asked her and she sped walked towards us. Her usual smile was not present as it had turned into a frown.

"Acxa." She stated simply. I laughed a bit but nodded in understanding.

"Don't make fun of me. She was really bugging me." She pouted throwing her hands up in the air. I only laughed more putting my hand over my mouth trying to stiffle them, failing horribly as a few made it past my fingers.

"Can we please go now?" She whined grabbing her sniper rifle and she marched off into the woods towards the town. "Oh come on! It was funny!" She only grumbled in response.

"Im sorry!" I shouted after her trying not to laugh again.

"No your not!" She shouted back. I giggled and looked towards Lotor who seemed he was quite amused at our childish banter.

"Lets catch up." He said shaking his head with a smile still flat on his lips.

~Time Skip~

When we finally reached our destination, Ezor was completely fed up with everything. Her grumbles never ceased and that crease between her eyebrows never went away.
