"Shopping Saturday!" Luis shouted.

Lance woke up, his eyes opened wide and he smiled widely. He sat up and looked over at Keith. He went on his bed and got on top of him. He leaned his face right over Keith's face and smiled.

"Keithyyyy" he whispered. Keith groaned and blinked open his eyes. He looked at Keith and pushed Lance off.

"What the fuck! What are you doing over my face?" He yelled.

"It's shopping saturday!" Lance whined. He pouted and got off the bed.

"What's that even mean?"

"Every Saturday, we go shopping. Sometimes it's just for groceries and sometimes, like today, we go at the mall" Lance explained.

"We didn't do that the day I arrived" Keith said.

"Well of course not, you just got here. Now get up and get dressed" Lance smiled and got behind the divider. He got out not even 1 minute after wearing high rise, cuffed dad jeans with a black belt, a tight black turtleneck and a navy, oversized flannel.

"You look good" Keith checked him out and smiled, Lance blushed lightly and walked over to his desk.

"Your turn. Get dressed!" Lance said. Keith chuckled and got behind the divider. He came out wearing loose blue jeans with an old, oversized video game shirt.

Lance stared at him too and smiled.

"Does it look ok?" Keith asked, unsure. Lance furrowed his eyebrows and looked at his face.

"Are you kidding me? You look amazing!" He said. Keith blushed and smiled. Lance pulled him over and sat him on the tip of his bed.

"What are you doing to me?" Keith asked.

"Your hair" Lance replied, he grabbed some comb and sprays and Keith looked uncertain. Lance put some stuff in his hair and brushed it. He handed a mirror to Keith and his eyes went wide, his hair was even silkier, yet, it was even more fluffy.

"Wow. You did a really good job" Keith said, impressed. He smiled at Lance and the other boy shrugged proudly.

They got out of the room looking like a million bucks and even Veronica was impressed. She high fived Lance and smiled at him.

They got to the kitchen and ate breakfast. Lance's mom made eggs with toast, they sat down and enjoyed their food while everyone else talked with each other.

"Are you all excited for shopping Saturday?" Mrs. McClain asked. Everyone nodded and cheered in excitement.

After breakfast, they all got in the family minivan, it had place for 6 people. The moms in front, Veronica and Luis in the middle and Keith and Lance in the back.

"This is how well sit for the road trip so get used to it" Krolia announced, Lance and Keith smiled at each other.

They got to the mall and everyone separated in teams of seating. They each got an amount of money to spend but they could also use their own.

Lance and Keith made their way to the first shop they'd visit, H&M. Lance was more excited than Keith for this one but he was still happy. Lance grabbed Keith's hand and made his way through the store. Keith followed and blushed at the hand grabbing. Lance chose a couple of shirts and accessories before going to pay.

Lance spotted a cute cashier and went over to her, he let go of Keith's hand and leaned on the counter.

"Do you have a map, 'cause I keep getting lost in your eyes" he said, he smirked and pointed finger guns at her. She chuckled and Lance immediately took it as a victory.

"Sorry, I'm gay" the girl said. Lance frowned and Keith laughed, Lance glared at him and Keith put a hand over his mouth. The girl scanned each item and and said the price, Lance paid and she gave him his receipt. They left the store and Lance was left bummed out.

"Wanna get something to eat? It could cheer you up" Keith proposed. Lance nodded and smiled at the boy. They made their way to a small ice cream shop in between shops. They went in and looked at their options.

"I'll take a medium vanilla and he'll take your strawberry milkshake" Keith said, he smiled at the guy behind the counter as he went to make their order. He gave them their ice cream and Keith paid, they walked away and Lance was already smiling wide.

"Thanks, Keith" he smiled. Keith nodded and they sat on a bench nearby.
"Can I taste?" Lance asked Keith, he nodded and handed over his ice cream. "Here," Lance handed his milkshake and both tasted the others ice cream.

"Hm, that's pretty good!" Keith exclaimed. Lance nodded and they each took back their cold treat. They chatted and enjoying their time and before they knew it, their ice cream was done. They got up and walked around in hopes of finding a good store.

The first one they stopped at was a video game store, they bought merch and Lance got a new video game. The next stop was a tea shop. Lance got a teapot and Keith got a mug and a mango tea. They walked around and Lance was overly excited by the mini train.

"We can't go on it, Lance, were too old" Keith said. Lance brushed him off and went over to the man driving it.

"Excuse me sir," he started, the man looked at him and smiled. "What's the age limit?"

"There is no age limit, everyone can have fun!" The man happily said. Lance looked at Keith and smiled brightly, Keith shook his head as Lance dragged them over to get on the train. They sat and the train started moving shortly after. Lance was happy and almost jumping out of excitement and Keith just sat there.

"Come on, Keith. This is fun!" Lance said.

"Dying would be fun" Keith said. Lance clicked his tongue and elbowed Keith who was smirking at his own joke. The train came to a stop and they got out, they went to join the rest of the family sitting at a table at the food court. They got some food and ate with the rest of the family, describing what they did.

It was a nice day.
