It was a Friday night when Hunk invited some friends to a little party in his house due to his birthday. Nineteen years old makes him a proper senior now, so he has to celebrate. By 10 p.m. everyone was there: Allura and Lance, Hunk's best friends from school; Keith, a friend who used to go the same classes as them but was expelled for some reason and because of that he attends to a different one now; Keith's girlfriend, Acxa, from his new school; Romelle, who's new in town and Allura, her cousin, thought it was a good chance for her to get to know some people; and Pidge, Hunk's short buddy from Science Club who doesn't know anyone at the time, as any sophomore would do in a house full with seniors.

Lance, the usual party spirit and soul, had sneaked in some vodka bottles to 'cheer things up' while Allura, Romelle and Acxa are laughing out loud in a corner of the living room. Hunk's in the kitchen giving the final details to his handmade pizzas as by the time Keith and Pidge are playing Killbot Phantasm really concentrated.

"Hey, everyone! Food's coming" says playfully Hunk.

"And guess what I just did... DRINKS!" everybody cheers at Lance as he starts to drink his Cosmo.

Everybody does except Keith, of course, because he doesn't cheer unless he's having too much fun or too much alcohol.

It's not much later in the night when everyone is more relaxed and a little drunk by the time when Lance begins to talk a little louder than usual. Actually, he's not making any sound lower than screaming. Keith and Acxa are resting on the couch, her head over his chest laughing at Lance flirting to Romelle, who's too embarrassed to do any more than just laugh. Hunk and Pidge are ones playing now, displaying the technique level of usual gamers, making the game more interesting. For them, obviously.

It's now when Lance realizes the guy there still has the drink he made hours ago, and that he barely left the console.

"Hey man! You, shorty."

"Yeah" answers Pidge without looking away from the screen.

"Leave that, come have some fun."

"I'm doing, man."

"Real fun, dude. Have a drink, get a chick, whatever" says Lance, trying to convince that poor little guy.

"Excuse me?" Pidge pauses the game. 'This shit is getting serious' thinks the older one.

"Have you even met them? Over there's Acxa, but she's with emoboy an…

"Shut up Lance, you're drunk" states Keith.

"Whatever. Here's Allura and Romelle, they're pretty beautiful, huh? Allura's single by the way, but I don't know if she… Hey, Allie, you like runts, don't you?

"Lance" she says quietly, not laughing anymore.

"What's with that?" asks the little one.

'This guy is really dumb' thinks Lance to himself as he gets up to go closer to him.

"What's with that? Man, you seeeerious? You could go there and make a move"

'Is he even human?'

"Sorry, I'm not lesbian" says Pidge looking dead straight at Lance, then turns around to the screen and starts playing again.

"What?"

Everyone, even Keith, starts laughing at Lance, specially at his shock face. Oh man, that's a girl. That's a girl and everyone knew except him. That's a fucking girl.

Fuck.

"I'm Pidge by the way."

'Really?' thinks Lance trying to track the joke.

"She's Katie, Lance." says Hunk trying really hard to win the game.

"Pidge. Name's Kate but I go better with Pidge."

Strange thing is she doesn't seem to be mad. Like, not at all.

"Well, are we ever talking about this or you're going to pretend forever nothing happened?" asks seriously Lance to Keith and Hunk.

It is Monday's morning and all three of them are waiting in Galaxy Garrison College to finish their admission documents, in line for they're all applying to study there next year, when they're out of high school.

"I didn't know that was something to talk about" says Keith, with his usual 'your voice bothers me' tone.

"Man! I treated that girl like shit and I had no idea, I swear."

"Yeah, we believe you."

"For real."

"Ha ha, so funny" says Lance with clear annoyance. "I don't know, maybe I should apologize."

"Meet her in school" says Hunk. "She's a sophomore; you'll find her wandering around."

And that's exactly what Lance does as soon as they're out of GGC and back to high school, exactly in time for lunch. Except, he doesn't find her in the lunchroom.

As he's going out of there, he texts his big friend to ask if he had any idea about where to find the girl, but there's no need after all. There she is, talking on her phone at the end of the hall.

Good. That gives him time to think because, hell, he has no idea about what to say now. Actually, he never thought about it.

After she cuts the dial, Lance goes nearer and with bravery in his heart says:

"Hey! Hey… there, Pidge"

She turns around to find the guy with a kind of tomato reddish tone on his face, looking certainly embarrassed. Poor guy.

"Hey… huh, Lance, right?

"Yeah, mmm, well, I just wanted to say sorry, about the other night. I didn't men it. I mean, I did, but I didn't mean to be rude, I'm a complete asshole.

She stares at him.

"Okay" says Pidge with a smile.

"Just okay?"

"Yeah… it's okay."

"Wait, why are you so "okay" with that? I mean, I'm really sorry and you're j…"

"I know I look like a boy. It's easier to fit in."

"Wait, oh, so you're trans?"

"Nope, I just dress that way" says vaguely looking at the roof. "Do you have a problem?"

"What? Hell, no" exclaims Lance immediately moving his hands real fast. "I was just being curios, sorry."

"Cool" says Pidge smiling widely at him. "Then, see you later, Lance."

"See you, Pidge.

After that, in time they become really close friends, always hanging around with Hunk even though Pidge is two years younger.

That last thing doesn't really matter as soon as they start making video games nights where they would kill each other in multiple and various ways, always for fun sake, obviously.

Sometimes even Keith would attend, increasing a somewhat brother- sister relationship with her, even more when, and Hunk and Lance would never know about this, Pidge asks Keith to teach her to drive, what he does. They both share a secret grin the day she comes waving her permission out of the window of her mom's car she just stole for that afternoon.

Some months later on, Lances finally gets a night out with Romelle and Hunk starts dating a girl he met in an investigation program called Shay. Pidge, on her side, begins to work on her first robot, Rover. She's not sure yet about what is he going to do, but she can tell it's going to be awesome. Even Allura ends up getting along with Pidge, even to the point to drag her to the shopping mall and get her some sundresses.

N/A: HI THERE! I'm back guys, with a brand new fandom to be in. Well, yes, yes, I know, Plance is not a very popular ship (even I ship Klance) but my little sweetheart Pidge got me by the heart and I think she deserves some love to enjoy.

I apologize sincerely for my bad writing. I'm not going to display excuses, but my native language is Spanish, not English, so that adds up is a little extra work for me; plus I don't write in almost three years, so I'm a little off. With some luck on my side all that will fix in time.

Please, leave some reviews, I'm really interested in what you think about this little story that just popped out of my mind.

Hope you all have a nice day!
