Hi I'm back from the dead (*cough, cough*Just like shiro*cough* lol) anyway this is my first voltron fic so of course it had to be Klance. I own only my words.
Lance stirred, a warm breeze tickling his face. A tired hand swiped across his nose to try to get rid of it, but the breeze just came again. Ugh. He thought. Hunk forgot to close the dorm window again. But the warmth of the breeze didn't seem normal for so early in the morning.
Wait a minute. Lance's eyes snapped open. He wasn't in his room at the Garrison. Hell, he wasn't even on Earth anymore. Hadn't been for months- he'd been on the castle until that imploded. He realized he was on the borrowed Galran ship on the way back to earth. Then where was the air coming from? Lance looked behind him only to find a giant furry mass laying beside him, a big tooth sticking out from a snout, snoring in his face. "Wah!" He yelped, falling backwards out of bed. The loud thump was enough to rouse the creature in his sheets, yellow eyes flying open and ears standing at attention. Lance sat, tangled in his sheets, not breaking his gaze from Keith's space wolf. "KEEEIIIIITH!" He yelled.
Within three seconds the sound of Keith stumbling and cursing his way towards Lance's room filled the hall. There was a crash and a small "oomph" outside the door. Lance's door slid open to reveal Keith, hair disheveled, in pajama pants, face smooshed against the ground and butt in the air. A sight that made Lance's face erupt in color. "What's wrong?" Keith asled in a panicky voice, trying- and failing- to hide his blush when he saw Lance in only a too-big T-shirt and too-short shorts as pajamas.
"Why is your dog in my room?" Lance cried, voice cracking as his eyes roamed his rival's body. Keith's eyes snapped up to the bed where his companion lay, looking suspiciously amused at the situation.
"What the heck?" Keith mumbled, picking himself up off the floor. "Come here, girl." He said. Both Lance and his wolf walked over to him. A tic passed before both boys' faces turned tomato red.
"You meant the dog." Lance's voice was a million octaves too high.
"I meant the dog." Keith's wasn't much better. The wolf bumped up behind Keith's legs, causing him to stumble. "Hey, man, what are you-" before he could finish his sentence, Keith's wolf had slammed against his back in an effort to play. This only caused a shirtless Keith to fall onto a practically pants-less Lance. Keith acted quickly enough to cushion Lance's head from the floor with his hands before they slammed to the ground. Groans and small curses escaped them as the wolf teleported elsewhere, leaving the two blushing paladins on the floor.
In an instant the wolf had reappeared and snapped its teeth, a glow illuminating from the blue marks in her fur. The energy condensed around it and floated over to the boys, who tried backing away, but found themselves trapped against the wall as the glow settled over them. The glow intensified, filling the room with light, making Lance and Keith squeeze their eyes shut. And then it was gone. They opened their eyes to the empty room. "Huh." Lance looked around to see if the wolf would reappear. "What was that all about?" He looked over to Keith, who only shrugged in response.
"I've never seen her do anything like that before." He reached up to scratch the back of his neck out of habit. Only, Lance's hand followed. Their confused gazes locked onto the glowing cuffs on each of their wrists. "What the-"
Lance started yelling and swinging and shaking his wrist, cutting off Keith's sentence. "Get it off! Get it off!"
"Lance wait!" Keith's arm was being ripped away from his body so forcefully that he was afraid Lance might accidentally dislocate his shoulder. "Stop it, just hold on!" Lance couldn't seem to hear him. "Lance stop, you're hurting me!" Keith yelled. Lance froze. He turned his face back to Keith's, apology in his eyes.
Keith sighed in relief and rubbed his shackled wrist with his free hand. "Oh jeez, I'm super sorry." Lance said hands reaching out toward Keith to try and fix it, then retracting like he'd hurt him more if he touched him.
"Hey, it's fine. You just panicked." Keith said. "Now what...?" They both looked at their wrists. Lance's cuff was blue and on his left wrist, while Keith's was red and around his right wrist.
"Like our original lions?" Lance wondered aloud. Keith hummed, and Lance took it he was thinking the same thing. "So, do you mind telling me why your freaky space wolf just arrested us?" Lance raised an angry eyebrow.
"How should I know?" Keith said incredulously.
"Um, she's your pet and you spent two years with her on a whale. It seems like you might know what the heck she did." He shot back, trying to cross his arms, but it obviously didn't work with their cuffed arms.
"Ok, ok, just quit moving for a second." Keith said, pulling his arm away from Lance's body, blushing slightly at their close proximity. He sighed again, scrubbed his tired face with his free hand. A sudden thought struck him and he groaned. "Remember when Allura and Coran cuffed us all together during dinner to try and get us to bond?"
"Yeah? And we had an awesome space goo food fight?" Lance grinned at the memory.
Keith sighed and dragged his hand down his face. "What if that's what's happening here?" He gestured to their bound hands.
Lance blanched. "So you're saying your space wolf wants us to bond?!"
"I don't know! It's just a thought. I don't see any other reason for this." He raised his right arm and shook it, sending shock waves down to Lance's body. Unfortunately (fortunately) the movement caused Lance's oversized shirt to slip over his shoulder.
Although it was a tiny bit of uncovered skin, it still made heat rise to Keith's face. Freckles, he thought to himself. He has freckles on his shoulders. Lance coughed and pulled the shirt back up.
"Ok, should we go to the team about this now?" Lance asked, looking anywhere but at Keith.
"Yeah, I think that's probably best." Keith said, deep voice a little bit too high, face a bit too warm for his liking.
"Uh, Keith?"
"Yeah, Lance?"
"I gotta pee."
Keith groaned and slammed his blazing red face into his hand.
