Chapter 20- Times are a changing
Keith was pretty sure he just got whiplash from how quickly Lance's mood changed. First he was pissy and mean for no reason! And now he's completely fine and smiling? Keith knew he could be a bit thick sometimes but it didn't seem like there was any things he was missing.. Or was there?
Keith wasn't the only one questioning things as Lance had some pretty big questions too. He wasn't sure how he was going to do this but he knew he had to. Because there was no way in hell Hunk would let him off scott free. Lance had to somehow figure out how to show everybody that he wasn't some fragile painting or charity case. He needed their trust and it looked like he was going to have to share some things if he wanted to get it.
Before either of them knew it they were already at the lounge where the others were already gathered. Most likely sharing sharing what had happened in my room Lance bitterly thought.
"Hey Lance" Hunk said his voice flat and hurt.
"Oh hi Hunk" Lance mumbled with his fake smile but Hunk's glare just turned it into a thin line.
"Did you two fix everything up?" Shiro asked hopefully, knowing that they most likely didn't.
"Well I don- "Yup we sure did!" Lance chirped effectively cutting Keith off(which Keith thought was quite rude).
"Oh that's um really surprising actually."
"Lance Keith, I think you too should both take a seat." Allura croaked, she still wouldn't look Lance in the eyes. After Lance and Keith had taken their seats, Pidge immediately clinged on to Lance like the marsupial she was. Everything was tense and quiet until Allura spoke again.
"Lance it's time we talked, especially about what recently occured." Allura said as commanding as she could, it didn't do much with glassed over eyes though.
"Cut the crap Allura, he knows" Hunk spit out bitterly, he wasn't dealing with Lance's bull this time not again. Everyone else was surprised at Hunk's behaviour but knew they had no right to call him out on it.
"All right I'll tell you everything, but no and i mean none of that mind melding shit alright I refuse" Lance voiced with confidence that surprised even him. Everyone nodded their agreement and Lance continued.

Guys I am so sorry, you poor dumplings should not have to deal with my inability to not follow deadlines. A lot of stuff happened, including moving schools, broken bones, etc. So now I should be on a more consistent schedule. If you guys have any questions, ideas, prompts or just wanna talk my inbox is always open. Catch y'all later dumplings. - Mitch
