A/N: hey guys...I would like to say this before I start. I'm sorry that this chapter is so short...I couldn't really think of anything and I'm not too motivated anymore. I'll be writing one more chapter before I officially ending it. So with that, lets get to the reviewer

Cut-throught: I'm glad to see another Sheith fan here. Also I'm curious about their backstory too...I've seen other fanfictions about their backstory, but I want to see the show's version.

Anyway guys, I hope you guys enjoy it...again I'm sorry for the shortness of this chapter.

Lance could tell they worm holed by the way the speed suddenly changed in a split second. He wondered how Keith could've slept through all of that...well, he's had a long and exhausting day so far. Lance knew he could sleep through anything.

He checked on Keith's forehead...and actually found it to be breaking, but only slightly. He grabbed the thermometer near by and stuck it in Keith's ear...just as Pidge did.

After a few moments, he took it out and read what it said. His eyes widen slightly to see his confirmations were indeed correct. 101.8 degrees Fahrenheit (or about 38.8 degrees Celsius). It wasn't a lot, but at least it's progress.

Suddenly, Lance heard the door open, and he turned around to see Allura walk in the room. This is the first time she would see Keith since everyone was gathered in the infirmary. Lance got up immediately after she walked in.

"Allura?" he asked, and decided to ask what's been on his mind. "Uh...is the Galra..."

"For now. I don't think they can track us down as of now. However, we can't stay here forever," she looked down at the red paladin. "How's Keith?"

Lance looked back at Keith. Even though his fever slightly went down, his skin still looked pale and there was still blush on his cheeks...but it did look slightly lighter.

"Still sick, but his fever went down a little."

Allura smiles. "That's great! But...when will he wake up so I may speak with him?"

Lance chuckled slightly. He knew that Allura didn't know about human sicknesses, but it was still kind of amusing.

"I wouldn't wake him up. You see, sleep is very important to human illnesses. Sleep can help the human body recover. In Keith's case, he badly needs it."

"Oh," Allura said sounding disappointing.

"But don't worry, he'll be ok."

Allura nodded.

"So where are the others?"

She sighs. "Still trying to make the soup for Keith. I told them that I was going to check in with you and Keith so I don't know if it spilled...or I hope it didn't spill."

At that moment, Allura and Lance realized they were talking freely about the surprise and their gaze went to Keith. His eyes were still closed, but he could still be listening.

"Keith?" Lance said not too loudly just in case he was sleeping. "Keith?"

Keith didn't move, and after a few minutes, he still didn't wake up. Lance sighed with relief and looked at Allura.

"We're gonna have to be more careful," he whispers.

She nodded in agreement before looking back at Keith. That's when she laid a hand on Keith's forehead before sighing.

"I just cannot help but worry."

Lance shrugs. "If you ask me, he's been through worse."

Allura just stared at Lance before sighing.

"Do you...mind if I watch over Keith for a bit?"

Lance just stared at Allura for a second, before he decided to nod.

"Yes...just don't wake him up. He needs his sleep. Too much screaming."

"I promise I won't."

Lance gave a nod before exiting the infirmary and heading for the kitchen.


A/N: ok that's it for this week. Again for the 3rd time, I'm sorry it's so short. I didn't really feel motivated this week. But please leave your thoughts of what you think:)
