Cinnamon Tea and Hot Chocolate


A/N: I seriously love the klance in this chapter, so have fun, 'cause the fun has just started!


6th of December

"I don't feel like doing this, can't I just make up an excuse and ditch this" Lance asked Hunk, as they walked up to the Holt's apartment.

"No, I can't let you do that, I already covered for you yesterday. Lance, you haven't seen Keith in two days, if you skip the movie night, he's going to suspect that you have been avoiding him" Hunk said, stopping in front of the door leading into Matt and Pidge's apartment.

"One last thing Lance, remember that everyone thinks you and Keith are an item, better pull those acting abilities out of the bag" Hunk said with a wink and rang the doorbell.

"Hunk, Lance! I didn't know you would come together" Matt greeted, stepping aside to make room for the guys to enter.

Lance, who had already put on a smile, looked around the living room. Pidge, Shiro and Adam were sitting on the couch discussing loudly what movie they should watch, while Shay had just walked into the room with a big ball of chips.

"Rom and Lura are not here yet?" Lance asked, raising an eyebrow at Matt.

"They are running late. Apparently, there's a problem with Café Altea's alarm system"

Lance nodded, now noticing that he hadn't seen Keith yet.

"And Keith?" Lance asked.

"Your boyfriend is in the kitchen, getting snacks ready" Shay giggled.

"Thanks, Shay, I will go help him," Lance said, waving to his friends on the couch as a 'hi'.

He heard Pidge make some joke about him and Keith kissing, but didn't bother listening to what the response was.

"Heya Keef," Lance said, leaning against the door frame to the kitchen.

"Don't call me that" Keith said, annoyed as he turned to look at the Cuban.

"It's Keith, not Keef"

"Alright, samurai, got it," Lance said with a wink that made Keith blush.

"You know what, nevermind, I have something more important that I wanted to talk to you about."

"And that would be?" Lance asked curiously, tilting his head slightly as he was still leaning against the door frame.

"Have you been ignoring me? You have been acting weird ever since we bumped into Plaxum, and I don't know why. Do you still like her?" Keith asked, his voice holding a bit of unsureness.

Keith didn't know why, but he was holding his breath. Why was he so nervous for Lance's response?

"I don't like Plaxum, at least not anymore. I moved on. I haven't been avoiding you, my brother did skype me and asked me to do it last minute. And yesterday Hunk had a nervous breakdown about his food exam thing, so I helped him study by eating his food. Also, I'm sorry that I have been acting weird. Lately, something Plaxum said made me insecure. But I'm good now, Hunk and I talked it through" Lance said, smiling reassuringly to Keith.

They heard the door to the apartment open and two voices greeting, Romelle and Allura, making them both freeze for a moment.

Keith was about to say something but stopped as he heard someone make their way to the kitchen. Lance also seemed to notice, and as they locked eyes, their eyes both asked the same question.

"What's our excuse to take this long?"

"Kiss me" Lance hissed lowly, making sure whoever was walking to them couldn't hear him.

"What?" Keith whispered back.

"Kiss. ME"

"I'm not going to kiss you" Keith looked at Lance not believing what the Cuban was suggesting.

"What's taking you love birds so long?"

Keith and Lance both froze as they heard Matt's voice, Keith's eyes looked panicked at Lance.

"Sorry" Lance whispered as he grabbed the collar of Keith's shirt and pulled the shorter boy into a kiss just as Matt walked in.

Keith's protests got drowned by the kiss as Lance pulled him in deeper to keep Matt from hearing anything. Even though surprised, and having ABSOLUTELY NO FEELINGS for Lance, Keith leaned into the kiss pretty fast. Keith tried to ignore the warm feeling he felt when Lance leaned in, too, but it was almost impossible.

"Sorry for interrupting" Matt stuttered, making the boys almost jump apart.

"Matt, I didn't even hear you enter," Lance said, his cheeks scarlet red.

"Oh, don't let me interrupt your hot make-out session" Matt snickered, clearly recovered from the shock for walking in on the boys.

"Well, you ruined the mood, take some snacks with you, and we will be out in a second" Keith said, rushing Matt out of the kitchen.

"You better, or else I'll bring Shiro" Matt giggled and walked out with a bowl of popcorns and a bowl of all kind of different candies.

Lance now noticed how he was still holding on to Keith's collar, also how close they stood. The Cuban's face somehow got even redder as he let go of Keith's shirt, though he didn't move away from Keith.

"Sorry about that" Lance muttered, looking anywhere but at Keith.

"It's fine, they definitely think we are dating now," Keith said, trying his best to sound like the kiss hadn't just changed his whole world view.

"Yeah, that's true," Lance said with a fake laugh, also pretending that the kiss hadn't made his entire insides go all fuzzy.

"So you know that we will have to cuddle while watching movies, right?" Lance said, stepping away from Keith to take a bowl of snacks.

"Probably a good idea, because we're pretending to be a couple and all" Keith said, trying not to sound desperate.

"And nice for klance to join us," Pidge said, looking at the boys suspicious.

"Nice ship name," Lance said taking a chip from one of the bowls.

"Yes, very nice that you could get your tongues out of each other's throats long enough to get in here" Matt laughed, gesturing at the floor as it were the only free space to sit.

Lance locked eyes with Hunk, as they had a whole conversation with their eyes.

"You kissed?"

"Yes, only shortly, Matt walked in on us."

"Why would you do that?"

"I don't know. It was the only way out of explaining that I could think of."

"Right, it's not because of your newly realised feeling for Keith?"

"We agreed not to discuss my love life or my sexuality."

The rest of the group looked between the two boys as they hadn't blinked once and just kept looking at each other in the eyes. "What are they doing?" Adam asked, as his eyes flipped between Hunk and Lance.

"They have been friends ever since they were born, their moms are old high school friends, so they have developed the ability to have a conversation with each other without words" Pidge explained.

"Eh Lance? Shouldn't we sit down" Keith asked, puffing lightly to Lance to get his attention.

"What? Yes, good idea, I call big spoon" Lance said a little shocked, snapping out of his conversation with Hunk.

"Big spoon?"

"Yes, big spoon, you are going to sit between my legs" Lance answered, taking some pillows and blankets to make the ground comfortable.

"I'm going to what?!" Keith hissed, but Lance only laughed at that.

Keith would be caught dead before admitting that he actually liked sitting with Lance where he was leaning up against the boy. Keith let his head fall back a little, now resting it against Lance's chest. Keith's eyes got heavy, and his blinks got longer and longer. The raven-haired boy almost couldn't focus on Jurassic park, only really waking up when a dinosaur roared. When he yawned for the third time in a row, he heard a low chuckle behind him, and Lance leaned close to his ear.

"Someone is tired, huh?" Lance whispered, his lips so close to Keith's ear that he could feel Lance's breath tickle against his skin.

Keith hummed tiredly, leaning closer to the boy behind him, quickly falling asleep.


A/N: A klance kiss? What? Did I just fanservice y'all? Yes, yes I did, though the kiss wasn't really out of love, so you will have to wait for one of those. See you tomorrow!
