LANCE ♚ BLACK PALADIN

xxxNo matter how hard Lance tried, he couldn't imagine himself sitting in the seat of the Black Lion for real. Sure, he could imagine a different universe where it'd happen; he'd become the black paladin, girls would rush him, he'd fall over and be in heaven. But this was a very, very different world. A world where, out of all possible people, he fell in love with Keith and became the leader of Voltron.

xxxKeith was gone most of the time. "Blades of Gamora" stuff, he'd claim. Going on missions constantly; Lance couldn't help but worry. How could he not? His boyfriend was off in the other side of space, doing god knows what with who knows what? But he was grateful when Keith would visit; even if it was just for a day or two. They were getting busier and busier by the minute, and they barely had time for each other. This was the first time in weeks... Maybe even a month and a half, that Lance was seeing Keith; and he was gorgeous.

xxx"Keith!" Lance shouted, running to hug his boyfriend as the other paladins watched; it was a treat they'd only see once or twice a month. Lance deserved to be happy and they knew it.

The universe was moving all too quickly in the recent months. Even though Keith himself was at the forefront of the battles it still felt as if it was too fast to keep up with. Every day there was new territories freed and recaptured. Life within the Blade of Marmora was tough. His training had mostly been 'get good fast or die faster' and he'd already almost lost comrades he'd only just met. Every day was a struggle. The brief moments he had to himself were mostly spent tending to small bruises and scrapes or thinking of Lance. It'd been so long since they'd seen each other and even with all the technology that surrounded them; it was so hard to stay in contact.

He was back now, he had time to catch up with his previous team and most importantly he could hopefully spend time with Lance but he was all too aware of time beginning to slip away from them. As each day went on it seemed they had less and less time for each other.

He didn't answer his boyfriend verbally, just cast a tired but glad smile and stepped forward to meet him, pulling him in close. The past month or so had been tough- he was quickly learning he was nowhere near as tough or strong as his full-blooded galra companions.

LANCE ♚ BLACK PALADIN

xxxLance moved into Keith’s arms, hugging him with the force of the universe. He was glad Keith was alive — hell, he was glad they were both alive. Sometimes it felt like Lance would one day wake up and find himself in a world where Keith is gone; one he doesn’t want to live in, nor think of. His grip tightened seconds before releasing Keith. “I missed you a lot, you dork.” He whispered, a laugh escaping his lips. He was relieved that his nightmares, tugging at his fingers and ears all day, were indeed fiction.

xxxLance stepped away, and took Keith’s hand in his own. He squeezed it gently before moving them both towards the other paladins, who stepped to greet Keith individually. Lance laughed, and for a moment, a pang I’d guilt washed over him. They were all so happy to see Keith — the rightful Black Paladin, right?

xxxWe all know Shiro is the black paladin, Lance. You were both temporary. It isn’t a competition. A voice nagged, and Lance looked at Keith as the rest of the paladins began to shuffle out, leaving them alone. He was forgetting about his worries, for they were being replaced with new ones. “I was gonna say I have a lot planned... But honestly, you look...” He frowned, “Really bad, Keith. Are you okay? Because if you aren’t, that’s totally fine. I know Blade training must be horrible, so if you need to rest, just tell me—”

For a short second or two Keith moved to rest his head on Lance's shoulder, letting out a soft sigh. He was tired, that was obvious. Another thing he'd found was the galra seemed to work non-stop, all through the day and all through the night- not that it was easy to tell what time of day it was in space. It wasn't unusual for his team to find him napping basically anywhere at anytime possible. For a few seconds it seemed he didn't want to let go of his partner but he did anyway. "I missed you too, jerk." He responded, eyes closing briefly.

Even as he moved over greet his previous team mates, he stuck closer to Lance. He'd always been a little possessive and once they'd started dating it was quite clear that Keith had a strong preference for Lance and Lance only. He had obvious favourites. Of course he still cared about the others, very much so, but he would rarely show it in any kind of direct way.

As the others began to depart Keith once again shuffled closer to Lance. He was just happy to be close to him, it felt like it'd been years, so much had happened in just a month and a half. In all honesty he felt like Voltron was leaving him behind but he told himself he didn't mind, that he was happy to keep working 'behind the scenes' with the Blade of Marmora. His gaze met his boyfriend's and he simply shook his head, resisting the urge to say 'you should have seen me yesterday' he of course didn't want to worry Lance. "I'm fine and it's fine, really. It's just taking some getting used to, that's all."

LANCE ♚ BLACK PALADIN

xxxLance looked at Keith, who insisted he was okay, and nodded. He didn't believe him, of course, who would? Keith looked horrible, and Lance knew Keith would rather keep all his emotions inside and one day explode. He didn't want to pry, so he just squeezed his boyfriends hand and gave a soft, "okay."

xxxHe pressed his lips to ex-paladin's cheek and hugged him once more, the reality that Keith was back for a few days finally settling in. "We should be seeing each other more than this." He admitted once pulling away from the hug, beginning to lead Keith further into the castle. "I really try... But Allura fears that taking a few days off, even for you, could put Voltron at risk. It's kinda like, I don't want to put Voltron before you." He stopped and looked at Keith. "I'll never put Voltron before you. But the universe needs to be saved, right? If we don't save it, there's no universe for us to live in. So it kinda goes hand in hand." He smiled at him, then continued walking.

xxxHe stopped at his bedroom door and shuffled Keith in. "You need to shower." He commented, a small grin on his face. "And I'm not saying that to be weird, because I'm pretty sure you've been wearing the same clothes for weeks. And if you walk out in a towel with new scars on your chest... I won't be happy. But i'm gonna demand to see that anyways, because I'm a worried, nagging boyfriend." He sat on his bed and crossed his arms.

Keith's gaze had shifted away from Lance and he was glancing around the room they were currently in. He'd missed the castle. The bright lights and the mix of blue and white was simply a far more comforting atmosphere. He didn't mind the Galran style Marmora bases but they did get a little shadowy and gloomy after a while.

With each small touch from his boyfriend, Keith found himself wanting to stay closer and closer. He didn't want to let go, ever. "We should..." he mumbled, pulling Lance back in for a few more seconds when he pulled away. He wished things were different, that somehow they hadn't got wrapped up in this whole space war. They were constantly torn away from each other, left on opposite sides of the universe with no way of knowing what had happened to the other. He simply nodded at Lance's words, finally letting him go. All the talk about Voltron simply reminded him how impossible it was to escape from it.

At the shower comment, he stuck his tongue out at his boyfriend and it was followed by a playful glare. "I have not been wearing the same clothes all week!" He protested, stepping closer to Lance. Rolling his eyes, he took Lance's hands in his own. Worried, nagging and beautiful boyfriend." He corrected, smirking.

LANCE ♚ BLACK PALADIN

xxxHe laughed at Keith's response, squeezing his hands. "Beautiful? You promise?" He teased, before pulling him closer, and into a hug. "If you haven't been wearing the same clothes, then why do you smell like you have? Do they not have showers at the Mamora bases?" He teased, and pulled Keith onto the bed.

xxxLance laid back beside him, eyes focusing on the ceiling. He took in the energy of Keith, the feeling of being next to him again; it was a feeling he missed. They didn't have to be communicating, talking or looking at each other to feel loved. At least, that's how Lance felt. Keith's presence beside him, whether it's in battle or when they're in a group of people, was comforting. He was the only person who made Lance feel less alone.

xxxHe turned onto his side, and looked at Keith with a smile. "You're beautiful too." He put his hand on his boyfriend's cheek. "Sappy and gross, but beautiful." He pushed his hair out of his face before giving him another kiss, lingering for a few seconds before standing up and physically pulling Keith out of the bed. "Come on. You know the drill. Into the shower before I force you in there myself."

"Of course I promise." He mumbled, being completely serious despite Lance's teasing. "And yes! There are showers! It's just- Hey!" He cut himself off as he was pulled onto the bed. Growling, he looked to see if there was a pillow that he could hit Lance with...There wasn't one he could be bothered to reach.

Keith let out a soft sigh, his gaze following his boyfriend's to the ceiling. He closed his eyes, taking a second to recall his days with Voltron. It was different. Everything with the Castle of Lions and Voltron was far flashier, crowds of people and constant 'thank yous'. Everything right down to the team itself worked differently, he still wasn't sure what he preferred but none of that mattered. He had a few days to spend with Lance, that was all that mattered. It was at times like this that everything seemed to slow down, the rush of the surrounding galaxy could be forgotten.

Eyes cracking open, his gaze landed on Lance, a smile growing on his face. "You're the sappy one." He grumbled. He didn't make it easy for Lance to pull him up and stayed more or less limp. He was really quite heavy and was determined not to move. "No...It's soft here I'm not moving." With that he crawled up further onto the bed.
