"Tell me what you see" Klance Voltron band AU

Chapter 9

"I don't know, I think Lance was pretty into Keith the other night. Did I tell you that he kissed his forehead?"

"I think you did." Pidge replied to Hunk. "I doubt they're going to realize it."

"They need to though! They would be so cute together! Not to mention they would finally stop arguing all the time."

"You seriously think that they will stop their bickering even if they get together??" Pidge asks. Hunk thinks for a moment before shaking his head. "You're right. They wouldn't."

"I bet they would even argue during sex."

"Ewww! Pidge! They're our friends! That's weird to think about them kanoodling each other!!"

"But I'm not wrong!" Pidge cackles, to which Hunk quietly nods along, knowing Pidge is right.

"I'm home!" Calls a voice from the entryway, belonging to Shiro. He just got home from his job. No one really understands what he does. He does something with computers. And spreadsheets. But also engineering? He has this big fancy job title but no one can remember it so whenever Shiro is asked about his job he makes something up on the spot. For the first four months of their relationship, Allura thought that he was actually a rodeo clown. That would explain the scar on his nose, right?

"Hey dad!" Hunk says cheerily. "How was work?"

"It was okay. Someone just got fired for stealing post it notes."

"Wait, they got fired for stealing post it notes? How many could they have possibly stolen to be fired for it?"

"About five hundred every day for the past year."

"Holy shit!" Pidge exclaims, to which Hunk makes a scolding face. "How did people not realize they were stealing that many post it notes?!"

"Not a clue. I guess they just thought we all used about thirty a day."

"Still!! That is so much!"

"Look, I never said my bosses were smart." Shiro smiles, taking off his suit jacket and putting it on the back of a chair.

"What are you guys up to?" He asks, before texting Allura to say he made it home safe.
They always tell each other when they get home so the other knows. It makes them feel safer, knowing that the other is okay. At first it just happened after Allura got into a car accident and sustained a minor concussion. Shiro wanted to make sure she made her way home and didn't accidentally wander off, much like an outside cat. Eventually it just became habit, and neither of them can imagine going a day without telling the other that they made it home safe.

"Well I said that if Lance and Keith were to ever have sex then they would probably argue the whole time. Then Hunk yelled at me for being gross."

"It is gross!! Why would you think about your friends doing it!!?"

"I don't know! The mind wanders, I guess!"

Shiro breaks up the pairs fighting by asking when they are planning on going to Lance and Hunk's place for rehearsal.

"Probably in about an hour or two? Lance gets home around now and he likes to have a shower and then have a nap so he can recharge from work." Hunk says helpfully.

"He naps? For how long?" Pidge asks, interested.

"About an hour?"

"No, that's not a nap. That's a sleep."

"What? How is that possible?" Shiro asks from the kitchen, where he is currently raiding the fridge.

"Everyone knows this. If you sleep during the day for under an hour then it's a nap. If it's for more than an hour then it's a sleep."

"Well that's a lie."

"Yeah I don't think that's true either." Hunk says. "I think if you go into it with the intention that it's a nap then it's a nap. The time doesn't matter."

Shiro then pipes up, "Oh, but what about the location?"

"What do you mean?" Hunk asks.

"You can nap in different places."

"You cAn?!"

"Guys! There's a correct answer to this! If you sleep for under an hour on the couch or something then it's a nap. If it's for more than an hour and it's in a bed then it's a sleep."

"You're wrong Pidge!" Shiro exclaims. "It doesn't matter where you nap! If you decide ahead of time that it's a nap then it's a damn nap!"

"No!!!" Pidge shouts

After Lance woke up from his nap, and had enough time to readjust to the world, he texts the group chat and tells them it's okay to come over. Lance likes to give himself ample time to completely awaken from his nap. In the wise words of Pidge Gunderson, 2018, "if he doesn't have time to fully wake up he gets bitchy."

The gang comes barreling in through the apartment door and they grab their instruments to get ready to play.

"Who here wants to order pizza when we're done?" Hunk asks the group. "I heard of this new place that makes a pierogi pizza! Who want's to try it with me?"

"Hunk, I love you, but that is the grossest thing I've ever heard of." Lance says, fake gagging for effect.

"It sounds interesting!" Hunk exclaims, trying to entice the others into trying it with him.

"Sorry buddy, there are certain things you don't put on pizza. Pierogies are one of those things." Shiro says.

"As an Italian I'm out." Pidge says. "My grandma already hates me because I'm pale and in a band. I don't need her to hate me anymore. I need her money when she goes."

"Wait, goes where?" Asks Lance.

"Oh my god. Everyone shut up and play 'How she works'" Keith says, already having finished his vocal warmups by the time the pierogi pizza conversation started.

"Oh! I made some changes to the drums in that one, is that okay?" Lance asks Keith.

"Yeah, that's okay. Let's play it with the revisions first and then see what we think of it." Keith says, smiling.

Lance smiles back softly. He refuses to look away first. Not when those eyes are calling to him.

"Y-Yeah. So....let's uh, let's play." Keith stumbles out. He wants to smile at Lance for longer but he saw Pudge looking at him from the corner of his eye and knew that of he didn't look away then Pidge would make fun of him for it later.

Hunk starts playing guitar and then Lance follows in, with a completely different beat than what they previously had for the song. Keith had to say he liked it more, and couldn't help but wonder when Lance had thought of it. Was it when he was at the party? Was it when Keith was in the room? Maybe he thought about it in the shower. You know how your mind wanders in the shower. Keith wonders what Lance looks like in the shower. Wait, nope! No no no no no! Keith would not be thinking about a dripping wet Lance coming out of the shower...and....and how he would look with his hair all in a mess. And...and how his toned arms would pop against the white towels he knew Lance had.

Oh no.  Keith thinks to himself.

I might actually have a crush on Lance.

Hey everyone! I know I was gone for a bit but I'm back now!
The argument about the nap thing is actually a conversation I've had with my mom. What do you think? Are you only allowed to call a nap a nap if you only sleep for less than an hour? Does it matter where it is you nap? Let me know.

Have a great day! :)
