Hey guys Apple here! I wrote this in a day and you know what that's okay. I totally did not have a story over 4k written out for Math and then scrapped it last minute and made this instead. Nor did I begin another chapter of Math and didn't complete it, making me start new. This is why I don't publish as frequently as I would like. Thank you Lettuce for looking over this, as I know it would be crap without you!
"Wait, so was it Pidge whomst set this up, or was it you?" Matt asked before taking a sip of Keith's coffee cup.
"Gee, you must love your coffee huh?" Keith commented as he then took Matt's coffee. "And well….. Okay, so Pidge suggested it, which I think makes her the one-"
"Okay, so you're the one who made the plan." Matt concludes, and then nodded. "I see you, I thought you were a hermit and here you are creating social events among peers in your natural habitat."
Keith snorted, and then took a tip of Matt's coffee. "Not really. It just kinda happened and now they're coming over."
"So it's gonna be you, Pidge, Hunk, and Lance for like… seven hours in your living room watching Harry Potter films." Matt commented. "Huh. I thought I would never see this day coming."
"Okay, stopppp." Keith stated in a jokingly mater. "I hang out with plenty of other people."
"Well yeah, but it took you at least a year of knowing them before inviting them over to your house. Hell, I think it took you like half of a lunar year to invite me to your house." Matt teased.
Keith rolled his eyes, "Oh shut up, you basically lived with us before we even began to date."
He looked back at his phone for the time, then back up at Matt. "Another thing, why the fuck did you use lunar year? Who the fuck says lunar year?"
"I do love." Matt rolled his eyes and wrapped an arm around Keith's waist. "And yeah, I basically lived there, but it took you awhile to invite me. When I was there, it was because Shiro invited me, or I invited myself over."
"I just didn't think I'd have to. Actually, I think I only invited you because it had been like two weeks since I physically saw you."
"Hmm, when I started project Alpha Sixty-Nine." Matt commented, "Which was a huge success, did you know that?"
"I did, you dork." Keith commented as he rested his head on Matt's right shoulder.
"...I love you." Matt stated.
"Mmhmm." Keith replied as he pulled out his phone again to check the time. "Fuck. I think it's time to walk back to the apartment. I have to quickly stop by to get snacks and the-"
"You still haven't bought them? Jesus, doesn't your thing start in like an hour?" Matt asked.
"Well yes, which is why I should get going now to get them on my way home." Keith replied. "I thought this through."
"Sure you did." Matt stated.
"Of course."
"...Do you HAVE to go?" Matt asked as he pulled Keith in closer to him.
"Unfortunately." Keith stated, "I'm actually going to have Lance and Hunk come over, and uhh I don't know how to feel yet."
"Of course."
"...Are you sure you don't wanna join us? It'll be fun?" Keith looked at him.
Matt laughed, "Nah, I'm good. I have to go meet again, remember?"
"I know, that's the only reason you even came." Keith replied.
"Oh shut up." Matt answered, "You know that it's only like…. 75% of the reason I came to the neighbourhood. The other 25% is because of you."
Keith elbowed him, to which Matt yelped, and half of the customers in the cafe looked at him, causing him to blush and become more flustered.
"Keith!" Matt scolded, to which Keith completely ignored.
Keith sighed, and ran his hands through his hair.
"Mmm." Matt kissed Keith. "I know. I'll see youuuuuuu?" He ended with a question.
"I'm not sure. Sssat- no, umm… Ssunday? Does Sunday work for you?" Keith asked as he slowly stepped away from Matt.
"Yeah, I guess that works." Matt gave him a bright smile.
"Alright." Keith smiled back.
"I'll call you later tonight, okay?" Matt stated.
"Okay." Keith gave him one more kiss and look, before walking away. Before he walked completely out of the door, he looked back and said, "愛しています!" (I love you)
"Wait I got this!" Matt called out. He blanked out for a second, and then replied, "私も愛しています!" (I love you too)
Keith smiled. "Good job, okay, bye!"
"Bye!"
As Keith walked down Parkman Bvd., he recognised the figure getting ready to cross the street.
"Hunk?" Keith shouted as he speed walked towards the crossing point.
The figure looked back in the direction they called his name. "Oh hey Keith!" He waved, and looked back at the crossing point.
"So where are you off to?" Keith asked as he eventually caught up.
"Pidge told me that she recommends getting snacks and help set up at your place." HUnk explained as they waited for the light to change.
"Already?"
"Well I mean yeah. I thought you'd be there already."
"Nooope. I had some other things to do beforehand ya know?" Keith stated as the light changed and they began to walk.
"I understand. But Pidge is already there right?"
"She should be. Matt said he dropped her off when I was still in classes."
"Alright cool." Hunk replied, "So where are the nearest stores?"
"Umm, well… I was planning on getting snacks for seven eleven." He truthfully replied.
"..."
"Okay it's not that bad, it's actually quite big so.."
"Alright, are you ready to see my house?" Keith asked as he began to look for his keys in his pocket while trying to carry the two bags in each hand.
"Yeah."
Keith sighed as he got to the door and couldn't find his keys, causing him to set the bags on the floor, and look with both hands. As he found the key and was about to insert it, Pidge opened the door.
"You could've just said something you know." PIdge greeted as she opened the door wide for both of them. "You're welcome by the way."
"I was just fine." Keith muttered as he set the bags down on the table. "Alright, I think we have enough snacks to suffer from diabetes after this."
"Hey when is Lance coming?" Pidge asked as she turned on the oven. "6:25 right?"
"Correct." Hunk replied as he began to take the food out of the bag. "And I don't know, I haven't seen him since the morning."
"I'll text him."
Keith nodded, and left the kitchen.
"...Hey where is Shiro?"
"I don't know! How am I supposed to know?"
"I don't know, you were here before us."
Keith was about to reply, but someone knocked at the door. door beforehand.
"And there's Lance." Pidge stated as she sighed and went towards the door.
"Alright! The party animal is in the house!" Lance greeted loudly as he came into the kitchen with Pidge.
"Sorry I'm a bit late, I was getting a lady's attention." Lance wiggled his eyebrows at Keith.
"You're fine." Hunk replied as he pulled mpre things out of the kitchen cabinet that Keith didn't know they had.
"Wait… I think there is another one in the other cabinet." Pidge replied as she looked at what Hunk pulled out.
"How the hell do you know what's in my cabinets, and I don't know Jack Squat what's in them?" Keith asked as he moved towards the living room as Lance followed.
"Because I cook with Allura sometimes, and Allura knows what's here." Pidge stated matter-of-factly.
"Hmmm." Keith began looking for the controller.
"It's on the shelf, bookshelf." Pidge commented.
"Thanks." Keith replied as he went over.
They were an hour into Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone when Shiro came into the house.
"Shiro?" Keith called out as he heard the door shut.
"Yeah?" Shiro replied as he took off his shoes and walked into the kitchen.
"どうしてそんなに遅いの?" Keith asked as Shiro half hazardly out his employee ID into the bowl on the coffee table (Why are you so late?)
"ごめん, ごめん, 私は仕事のために物を手に入れなければならなかった." Shiro explained as he sat on the floor next to Keith. (Sorry, sorry I had to get things for work)
They both continued to talk amongst themselves, completely oblivious to the fact that Lance looked confused.
"Wait Keith." Lance began as Shiro and Keith stopped talking for a second.
The brothers looked back at him. "I thought you were Korean? I mean, well, that's what Pidge said."
"I am." Keith looked at Lance.
"He was taught Japanese when our mom and dad adopted him." Shiro explained. He looked back at Hunk and Lance, and continued, "I don't think we have been introduced to each other."
Hunk blinked, and gave him a smile. "No we have not," he stated as he shuffled towards Shiro.
"Well hi, I'm Shiro, I'm Keith's brother." Shiro stated as he shook Hunk's hand.
"Nice to meet you Shiro, I'm Hunk."
"Nice to meet you." Shiro smiled at him, and looked at Lance. "So you must be Lance."
"Yeah! Hi, I'm Lance, and everything you have heard about me is true." Lance gave him a bright smiled.
Shiro laughed, and shook Lance's hand.
About twenty minutes afterwards, Keith asked Shiro a question.
"いつ行くの?" Keith looked at Shiro.
(When are you going?)
"ええと...知りません." Shiro replied, "After Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets I guess." (Umm… I don't know)
Keith nodded, and continued to watch.
"Hey, random question, but do any of you know where I can find a Philosopher's Stone? Like, the book." Hunk stated out loud as he read the back of the dvd case. "What's the difference?"
"I have it at home." Pidge relied, "I'll give it to you during econ."
"Pidge, I know you're a huge dork, but how did you even get that edition?"
"Matt." Keith replied, "Her brother is probably like twenty times dorkier than her. Didn't he buy it when he went to London liken four years ago?"
"Yeah, funny how you remember it." Pidge replied, "Hey can we pause for a second, I need a brake."
"Yeah." Keith replied as he reached for the controller and paused the movie. As Pidge and Lance stood up to stretch, Keith looked back at Shiro.
"あなたが行く必要があります." Keith stated as Shiro pulled out his phone. (You should go)
"그래, 난 떠날 거 야." Shiro replied as he sighed and stood up. (Yeah, I'll leave)
"I see youuu." Keith replied with a slight smile.
"I try." Shiro replied, smiling back, "내일 보자?" (See you tomorrow?)
"네." Keith replied. (Yeah)
"Alright bye guys, I'm gonna go get ready to go to Matt's." Shiro stated before walking towards his room.
"Bye Shiro."
"Bye."
"Pidge."
"..."
"Pidge."
"..."
"...Pidge!" Keith stated as he shook Pidge's shoulder.
Pidge was passed out on the floor, half drooling.
"Goddamnit." Keith muttered before shaking Pidge's shoulder harder. "Hey Pidge wake up, let's get you to a bed, yeah?"
"HmM?" Pidge asked as the glasses became more crooked, moving her head.
"Bedtime okay?"
"Matt?"
"No." Keith replied as he turned off the TV and stood up. "Come on Pidge, let's get you to the guest room."
"Oh okay." Pidge replied as she eventually half hazardly stood up. "What time is it?"
"Past one." Keith replied as the walked into the hall.
"When did Hunk and Lance leave?"
"Like at eleven I think?" Keith replied. "Let's get your dumbass in here."
"How the fuck did I fall asleep on your floor? It's really hard. Like, my neck hurts like there is no tomorrow."
"I'm not sure either. Hunk told me to tell you good night by the way." Keith stated as he turned on the light for the guest room. "Alright."
"G'night Keith."
"Night Pidge, I'll see you tomorrow."
"And the-" Pidge got cut off by Keith.
"We'll clean up tomorrow before Shiro comes back from work."
"I know."
"Alright, bye."
"Bye."
Keith then shut the door and got ready for bed himself.
"AY YO!" Matt answered the phone.
"Hey Matt." Keith replied as he prepared the bed.
"What are you up?" Matt asked drunkenly.
"To." Shiro stated in the background.
"Shhhhhhhhhhh Shiro, don't be -rupting my talks." Matt tried to whisper, which came out like he was talking normally. "Yeah, what are you up to?"
Keith snorted. "I'm getting ready to go to bed."
"Oh. Okay." Matt replied. "It's one though."
"I know. I just made Pidge go to bed. I mean… she fell asleep on the floor, and I just dragged her to the guest room. Keith commented as he finally turned off the lamp and got into bed.
"MMm." Matt replied, "How… how was the wizarding?"
"Great! We got through two movies before everyone gave up and began to dick around." Keith replied.
"Nicccce…" Mat burped. "Guess what I did!"
"Other than get drunk as fuck, what?"
"Shiro and me had a marathon too. But not like the running kind." Matt stated, "We watched Band of Brothers… and drank."
"Of course you did. Dork." Keith commented. "...Me pasas a Shiro?" (Can I talk to Shiro?)
"Okay." Matt replied, "I see how it is. You know call me to call him to call you to call."
"...Sure." Keith replied as he heard Shiro approaching.
"Hey Keith."
"Hey Shiro."
"What's up?"
"How much did Matt drink?"
"Okay but like he's a lightweight."
Keith snorted. "Yeah I know. Still. Can you take care of his dumbass for me in the morning?"
"I got you. You know I was his friend before you began to…. Canoodle with the dork."
"I know Shiro, just making sure."
"Yeah I know."
"Alright, I'm guessing Matt is ready to pass the fuck out?"
"Oh yeah." Shiro replied. "彼は今夜寝る前に君を待っていた." (He was waiting for you before he went to bed)
"Hey! Don't abuse the fact that ya'll speak a dank ass language that I don't understand!" Matt complained in the background, which cracked a smile with Shiro, and made Keith laugh.
"Aww.. Alright, I'll say goodnight now." Keith stated.
"Alright, here. Night by the way."
"Night Shiro."
"..."
"Hello?"
"Hey Matt."
"Hey love."
"Goodnight?"
"..."
"...Matt?"
"Babe."
"What."
"Babe."
"Yeah?"
"Babe, are you into astronomy, because your ass is out of this world." Matt asked.
Keith sighed into the phone. "Why do I even try?" He muttered to himself. "You're like a white dwarf star, extremely hot but not very bright."
"OHHHHHHHH HE SMOKED YOUUUU!" Shiro yelled in the background.
"MMMMM K night." Matt replied.
"Alright, go to bed okay?" Keith laughed.
"Love you."
"And I love you."
"No but like, I love you. Like… more than I love String Theory."
"... Thanks Matt."
"Hell, I love you more than string cheese."
"Love you too Matt."
"What's up with the word string? Like, it just doesn't sound like a good word to put into a food."
"...But that's how the food kinda acts."
"But like-"
"Okay honey, go to bed okay?"
"Okay love you."
"Love you."
