I had to rewrite this so many times. But here is my contribution to week 1 of Klance Appreciation Month.

Enjoy

.o.O.o.

Lance slowly became aware when he felt someone gently shaking his shoulder. His eyelids fluttered but didn't open, and the shaking stopped. He yawned and lifted one of his hands to cover his mouth, feeling his fingers brush against a soft mass of hair that wasn't his own.

The brunette opened his eyes and tilted his head slightly to see who the hair belonged to, coming face to face with Keith. He suddenly became aware of the red paladin's comfortable weight gently pressing him into the mattress and the consistent shivering of the other causing his body to vibrate.

Lance sighed. Keith was still sick. A few days ago he had gotten a strange alien sickness that was the opposite of a fever; instead of overheating he was freezing, and needed a constant source of external heat to keep him warm. Lance had been acting as the teen's heater ever since he first got sick. The others would take him every few hours to give Lance a break to eat and use the bathroom, but he always willingly took Keith back afterwards. He loved getting to cuddle so much, even if it was with a reverse-feverish and half asleep Keith. Even though they were dating Keith wasn't very fond of the idea of cuddling yet, so he didn't get to do this much.

With a slow blink of his eyes Lance looked up to see Hunk smiling down at him from the side of the bed. "Hey." He whispered, keeping his voice low so he didn't wake up the sleeping paladin cuddling into his chest.

Hunk smiled a little wider. "Hey. Want me to take him for a few?" He asked, figuring Lance would be hungry after a night of caring for his sick boyfriend. Hunk or Shiro normally took Keith in the mornings because Hunk was the warmest and the best cuddler and Keith and Shiro were brothers, so the transition between people was the easiest. Keith was very apparently not a morning person; the first time Lance tried to give him off they weren't careful enough and woke him up; as a result he refused to let anyone but Lance hold him for hours on end.

Lance looked down at Keith again, seeing that he was completely asleep. He yawned again and nodded. "Yeah." He shuffled over a little so Hunk could roll over him and Keith to get to the side of the bed closest to the wall. Hunk shifted until he was comfortable and then reached for Keith, gently removing his hands from Lance's shirt. He let Keith grip his own shirt and then pulled him over onto himself by his waist.

Keith stirred in Hunk's arms and made a sleepy sound. Lance was quick to shush him and run his fingers through the teen's hair, trying to get him to go back to sleep before he fully woke up and sunk into a sour mood. He whispered a long speel of Spanish words and phrases in Keith's ear, words and phrases he had come to understand over time.

After a few moments Lance saw Keith relax again and sighed in relief. He didn't move to get up for awhile, not willing to risk waking him up again. When Keith seemed to be completely out again Lance slowly slid off the bed and got to his feet.

He left his room and made his way to the kitchen to get something to eat. Shiro was the only other person there when he arrived. He smiled when he noticed the Cuban enter and waved. Lance returned the favor and sat down next to him with a bowl of food goo.

"Morning." Lance greeted, spooning some food goo into his mouth. He almost didn't chew at all before he swallowed, feeding himself more of the goo. He never took his time eating in space, the food didn't even taste good so there was no point.

Shiro smiled. "Morning. You're up earlier than usual." He commented. Lance hadn't been leaving his room lately until around noon because of Keith.

Lance smiled as well. "Yeah, Hunk took Keith for me." He said simply. Shiro knew he preferred to look after Keith as much as possible. His protectiveness of the sick paladin was derived from his experience caring for sick family members back on earth. In his household, a sick family member always had a specific person that was supposed to take care of them. In a way he guessed he could say that he wasn't good at 'sharing'.

Shiro nodded, finishing the last of his food. He stood and stretched, placing his bowl in the washing unit that vaguely reminded him of a dish washer. "Do you want me to take him today?" He asked, figuring Lance would say no. He liked being lazy with Keith.

Lance shook his head. "No thank you." He said politely, almost done with his food goo. He finished and put his bowl next to Shiro's in the space-dishwasher and yawned. "I'll probably get a little more sleep if Keith isn't awake when I'm back." He decided.

"Okay then. Hopefully he gets better soon." Shiro said with a wave as he turned to leave. Keith was the first to get sick, so they didn't know how long it would take for him to get better. It didn't help that he was half Galra either.

Lance sighed. "Yeah." He loved the cuddles and the clingy Keith, but he didn't like knowing that his boyfriend was suffering. It must be horrible to constantly feel like he was on the verge of frostbite.

Lance and Shiro said their goodbyes and left the kitchen, Shiro to go train and Lance to go back to his room. The blue paladin took long strides on the way, although he didn't rush. He could last the few extra seconds it would talk him to walk instead of run.

Keith was still soundly asleep when Lance returned to his room. Hunk was reading a translated Altean book on one of the tablets Allura and Coran had provided them with. He looked up when he heard the door opened and smiled, turning the tablet off.

"He hasn't woken up." Hunk informed his friend even though the information was obvious. If Keith had woken up he wouldn't have gone back to sleep until Lance came back and would have tried to get up and go to his boyfriend even though his sickly body was unable to lift him.

Lance nodded. He walked over to his bed and brushed some of Keith's hair out of his face. He was debating whether or not he should wake Keith up so he could eat, drink, and use the bathroom. He checked his clock and decided that he should be fine for another couple of hours.

Making sure to be careful, Lance got onto the bed on the side closest to the wall and laid on his side. He then eased Keith's grip off of Hunk's shirt and pulled him back into his arms. Hunk got off the bed and waved before he left them alone.

Keith stirred in Lance's arms and opened his eyes tiredly. He began to shiver more because of the brief loss of contact when he was handed off and cuddled into his boyfriend. Lance smiled and tucked the covers around them tightly. "Está bien, go back to sleep bebe." He whispered, tucking a piece of Keith's hair behind his ear.

The red paladin sighed, his voice shaking from his shivering, and tucked his head into the blue paladin's chest. He yawned, small tears forming in the corners of his eyes. Lance wiped them away with the pad of his thumb and kissed Keith's forehead.

A small smile crept onto Keith's lips as he closed his eyes and relaxed. He fell asleep again once he warmed up a little and his shivering wasn't as extreme. Lance noticed that he felt warmer than earlier that day. He was probably getting better, finally.

Lance sighed as well and closed his eyes. "Mejórate pronto." He whispered.

/está bien=all is well

/mejórate pronto= get well/better soon
