Keith's POV

I leaned against the wall listening to the conversation happening on the other side. Lance was talking with Allura and Shiro. "Come on Lance! You have to come!" Shiro told him.

"I don't know. Keith doesn't really like these sought of things," Lance stated. Us two had been living together for a while now not long after we got together.

"Lance, this party's going to be amazing! You have to come!" Allura pleaded, "plus there's going to be a lot of good looking people there." She wasn't suggesting Lance cheating on me. The statement was more for herself, but I couldn't help feeling insecure. I probably didn't deserve Lance anyway. "Just leave Keith here."

Lance sighed and I peeked out from behind the wall. After a while Lance nodded. "Fine I'll come." I took in a shaky breath and moved away so it didn't look like I was eavesdropping.

I heard Allura and Shiro leave and soon Lance walked into our bedroom. "Hey Lance," I said softly, "do you wanna watch a movie or something?" I asked.

Lance rubbed his face as he went to the draw to pick out some clothes. "Sorry Keith, I'm going out."

I looked at him scared though he had his back to me. He can't leave. I could loose him. Don't leave me. "Please Lance," I begged.

Finally the tall boy turned to face me. "Keith just let me go out." He seemed slightly annoyed now.

"But-" I began and Lance stood there somewhat patiently, "-nevermind."

"Ok, then I'm leaving," he said putting on his jacket. As he walked out of the room I quickly follow behind him.

"Lance!" I called.

He turned around to face me with an unamused look. "What?" I opened my mouth but no words came out. "Just let me go out for once ok?" He said a bit harshly and without another word left.

I watched him leave tears forming in my eyes. What have I done. Don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me. The thought ran through my head. My legs became weak and I sink to the ground. My breathing began to get faster as tears raced down my face.

I raised myself to my feet and weakly stumbled into the bedroom. Laying down on the bed I let the tears fall from my face. I couldn't help but cry thinking about were Lance was right now. Had he found someone else. Was he going to come home and leave me.

Lance's POV

I had been at the party for about thirty minutes and already felt bad. Some girl was currently trying to get my attention, but I didn't care. All I could think about was Keith. I had definitely been to harsh on Keith. I could tell he wasn't ok when I left but I still left.

I turned to Shiro frantically. "Shiro I need to leave." I told him. He looked back at me, carefully reading my expression and nodded.

"Ok, I'll tell the others you need to go." He said, though I didn't bother replying. Instead I ran quickly out of the party and to my car. Getting in I began to quickly drive back home.

How could I have been so stupid. So cold. I saw he wasn't having a good day and got angry at him. Left him alone to go hang out at some stupid party that wasn't even that fun anyway.

As I pulled up to the house I couldn't see any lights on. Keith couldn't have gone anywhere because I had the car. So that meant he must be asleep. Hopefully he was. That he hadn't gotten to distraught when I left. Unlocking the door I quietly walked into the house. I put my stuff down and made my way to the bedroom.

As I approached I could hear the sounds of quiet sobbing. My heart broke at the noise. "Keith?" I said walking slowly towards the small boy laying on the bed. The crying immediately stops and even though he's facing the other way from me I know it's because his trying to hide his tears from me. I sit on the edge of the bed, rubbing his arm. "Keith?"

Third POV

When Keith heard Lance, he freaked out. He didn't want the tanned boy to see him like this. Though he was also partly happy Lance was back. Though what if he was just back to break up with him. What if he found someone better. As Lance rubbed his arm, despite his attempts to keep quiet, at that thought, Keith let out a sob.

"Hey, it's ok Keith. I'm here. I'm sorry that I went to that stupid party," he spoke as Keith sat up and he quickly pulled the crying boy into his arms. Keith clinged to Lance and soon said boys shirt was soaked with the smaller boys tears. Lance rubbed his back in attempt to calm him down but it didn't seem to working.

"I-I thought you were going to leave me. Why did you leave," Keith whimpered and Lance sighed at his previous actions.

"I don't know Keith. It was stupid of me. I should of seen you weren't doing so good." Lance whispered into Keith's ear running a hand through his mullet. "But I'm not going anywhere now."

"Th-thank you," Keith's voice as barely audible, "for coming back."

Lance hugged his boyfriend tighter. "Of course. I'm not leaving you Keith."
