**Warning: Graphic Descriptions of Kissing**

Lance's feet finally touched land. He looked around, waiting for someone to show up and demand where he was. Then again, it was the middle of the night so he doubted anyone would be awake at this hour. Lance sat down on the sand, setting his surfboard and paddle by his side. He stared at the stars dancing in the black sky they called home. With a start, he noticed a shooting star bolting across the sky. He smiled. The fascination of space from Lance's childhood remained throughout high school and college. Still enraptured with the sky, he didn't hear the door open or the gasp of surprise. Cautious steps made their way towards him and it wasn't till his head was being turned and lips pressed on his that Lance did notice. Lance's eyes widened. Their lips separated and Lance immediately noticed amber eyes that could only belong to Pidge.

"P-Pidge?" Lance stammered. Pidge looked away, a blush dusting her cheekbones.

"Yeah, I've felt like that for a long time." she said. Lance continued to stare at her, not sure how to respond. However, when Pidge's eyes turned back to his and her lips came closer, his heart stopped. Lance leaned away.

"Pidge, I'm sorry. I can't do this right now." he said, not daring to meet her eyes. Silence filled the void that started to form between them.

"It's okay, I get it. I'm a junior, you're a freshman in college." she said, tears heavy in her voice.

"Pidge that's not it-"

"I am such a fool for thinking that this could work. Oh why the hell did I kiss you?" Tears started to fall from Pidge's eyes.

"Pidge, please let me expl-"

"And you want to know the worst part? I already knew you'd reject me. When we first met two years ago, I fell in love with you instantly. You were just this person I'd always wanted in my life. The way you acted and do you still remember how you flirted with me? I-I thought you'd want to be with me. So I harbored feelings for two years to see if you showed any sign of desire. I made stuff up to fill in the gaps. Then Keith came and I could just see the way you just tripped over your feet to surround yourself with his presence. Lance, I felt-"

"Stop talking." Pidge immediately shut up, "I'm not going to deny that I like Keith. A lot. But I'm not ready to put myself in a position where someone can break my heart. I know you'll find someone else. I really am sorry that I can't be that person for you. Although, I do hope that we can still remain friends." Pidge stood up. Lance met her eyes, sparkling with tears.

"I need to go somewhere where I can think in silence." Lance nodded and Pidge walked off. Lance turned his gaze back to the sky.

I'm sorry Katie.

Keith's slumber was disturbed with a door squeaking open and close.

Well more specifically, a hand on his face.

He bolted up and immediately shot forward with his fist.

"Jesus Christ!" came a voice as Keith's fist connected with skin. Keith's eyes adjusted to the room, and he saw Lance holding his cheek.

"Oh shit! I'm so sorry!" Keith apologized frantically, getting off the bed not knowing what to do with his hands. Lance looked up at Keith and smiled.

"Good to see you too." Then Keith realized, he was talking to Lance. The same one who disappeared.

"Where were you?" Keith hissed, anger coming back full force. Lance held his hands- well, hand- up.

"Chill out, I was at a secret hideout. It's where I usually go when I need to think."

"Well that's one problem resolved for me." Keith muttered, Lance's eyes widened and Keith swore he saw red on Lance's cheeks.

Keith immediately berated himself as soon as Lance smirked, "Aw, did you miss me?"

"Haha Lance. Unfortunately for me, your family blames me for your disappearance, Lalia's disappearance, as well as Lotor breaking in." Lance's mouth formed an 'o' of surprise.

"They blame you for all that? You haven't even done anything!" Lance exclaimed. Keith blew his hair out of his face.

"Well I wouldn't exactly I'm entirely innocent either. I had an argument with Lalia before she ran off. We have this secret code where we don't bother each other after an argument until we're ready." Keith sighed, "Although, if I knew ahead of time she wouldn't return home, I would have tried to make up sooner."

"Remember our discussion in the car the first day you got here?"

"Yeah..?"

"You seemed scared of her. Now I'm not saying I hate you for that, there was a time where no one knew how to help her, but maybe you're blaming yourself too much. I understand if my family tried to impose all of the blame on you, but they're scared for Lalia. I'm sure Shiro would have done the same if you went missing... Okay, now I'm just making excuses." Lance sighed and looked at Keith, "On behalf of my family, I apologize."

"... isn't that a line from my play?" Keith asked. Lance laughed.

"So you noticed?"

"That line was from a scene that was living hell to write."

"Well, I like that scene, Alex's honesty to Kisa reminded me of of Hunk and Shay a lot. They're really open with one another."

Keith smiled, "I'm glad someone liked it."

Lance's face went red, Keith saw it. Lance was blushing.

"Can I kiss you?" Lance blurted out. Keith's eyes widened and his face exploded in warmth.

"I-I, wh-what? I mean- I guess?" he stammered. It wasn't soon after that his own lips were met with Lance's and Keith felt himself melt into Lance. Their lips separated all too soon.

"L-Lance we shouldn't-" Keith started, but his words were stopped with a gentle finger on his lips.

"Please." Lance whispered, Keith saw the Cuban's eyes and immediately squashed any other protests. They tentatively connected their lips once more. After a moment, Lance cupped Keith's face with his hands. Keith opened his mouth slightly and invited Lance in. Lance took no time to explore Keith's mouth. Keith shivered with the pure delight of it. When Lance had explored every cranny of his mouth, Keith firmly pressed his mouth against Lance's once more. They broke apart for breath, a strand of saliva between them. They gazed at each other before pressing their lips once more together. Their teeth clinked and their noses bumped, but they didn't care. Keith hurriedly slid his hands under Lance's shirt and felt the warm skin that delighted his senses. Keith explored Lance's back and his chest. Resting his hand over Lance's heart, Keith felt it racing. He had no doubt his own was as well.

"You're amazing." Lance whispered, "At kissing I mean. Are you sure you're straight?" Keith laughed softly.

"If I told you, you'd hate me."

Lance smiled, "I'm not sure I could after you kissed me senseless." Keith laughed and kissed Lance again. Lance gently reciprocated with equal affection. Then Keith realized, he quickly ended the kiss.

"Oh my God, what are we going to tell your family?" Lance froze.

"Shit. What are we going to tell my family?" Keith slid his hands out from under Lance's shirt.

"I mean they might not noti-"

"Oh no they will, they're perceptive as hell."

"Fuck."

"If it's not my family then it'll sure as hell be Hunk, Pidge, and the rest." Lance's eyes flashed with guilt when he mentioned Pidge, but Keith decided not to question it.

"We could start a rivalry?" Keith suggested, Lance shook his head.

"Everyone will notice the change. Allura already said she noticed my staring at you." They froze as Lance realized what he said.

"Your staring..?" Keith repeated, not quite believing it. Lance's face dove behind hands.

"Yes, my staring." he admitted after a moment of awkward silence. Keith chuckled and removed Lance's hands from his face. Lance looked at Keith with embarrassment on his face and Keith pressed his lips on Lance's.

After a sweet moment, Keith broke the kiss.

"It's okay, I stare too." he said. Lance's head dropped to Keith shoulder.

"We're hopeless." Keith laughed and put his arms around Lance's figure.

"We kinda are."

"You're a good kisser despite having a mullet."

"My hair grows that way naturally."

"If you say so."

It wasn't till midnight that they fell asleep.
