Skotos/You

Previously:

"Dang..." Lance whispers in astonishment. He then walks over to the bed and sets you down onto the bed carefully. "Goodnight Skotos-" "My name is Y/n and goodnight Lancelot..." You fall asleep instantly with your hands shaking still intertwined. Lance smiles and kisses your forehead; Reluctantly, he takes his hand away from yours and leaves. He takes one look at you again and leaves.

It was one of those days where it was just a free day. Yeah, I wish. It was a stressful day actually. Having to go to meetings train. More meetings. Work your ass off on paperwork and research. I haven't even slept for... What day is it now? Third? Fourth? Aha! Sixth day of sleep I haven't gotten. I walk to my room as if I was a zombie. It felt very relaxing and home-y one could say. It just had that flare to it, ya know?

I see Glitch left a note saying she was in the library and wouldn't be back for a bit. I wonder what she has been researching about, but I never really have gotten the chance to ask as I have been occupied for the last few weeks.

I study our room and see my beautiful garden is wilting. I don't remember the last time I gave the poor plants water.

I search in my trunk at the end of my bed to spot a watering can. I pick it up and close the trunk. I travel to the kitchen and make my way to the faucet. I turn it on and cold water comes rushing out. Once at an appropriate amount of water is in the can I turn off the water.

"Hey there, Ally" I speak nonchalantly. I hear a squeak of surprise come from my best bud. "How did you notice me?" I ask. "Magic!" I say turning around and doing jazz hands with...well...one hand. "A watering can?" "Yup! I have my own garden growing in my room" "A garden?!" She takes a step forward. "May I see?" "Of course"

I motion her to follow me and she does. We travel to my room and as I'm about to open the door Allura stops me.

"Uhhh, Galaxy, that's the closet" She deadpans. I dismiss her and open the door. I find Glitch on the carpet talking to SQUISHY. "I know! That overture was quite something!" My little friend gawks.

She notices both Allura and mines presence. She makes eye contact with Allura and smirks. "I'll be leaving now" She gets up and SQUISHY follows along making a few beeping noises.

"Now wasn't that weird" I side glance Allura. She sheepishly laughs.

(You side glancing Allura gets her all flustered because she thinks you look hot doing it 😏)

I walk over to my little garden and notice that the berries are ripening. I smile in glee.

"This... Is my garden. Like it?" I say confidently, but still childlike. "It is quite the sight. Where did you get these fruit? I don't remember keeping these... Berries?" "They are called alechi berries Allura. They are only found on my home planet" I sigh. "Your planet? But we didn't travel to Lullora. Unless you went by yourself" She looks at me and I just stare at the berries. "You went didn't you?"

I take a big breath in and out.

"I had to see the damage. I had to see my planet one last time. Don't worry I wasn't alone. Glitch came with when I first found her"

"(Y/n)! That's dangerous! What were you thinking?" She yells in worried anger. She grabs ahold of my shoulders and stares intently at my face. I take a glance at her and see her piercing eyes. I feel myself at the brink of tears. She notices my distress and hugs me tightly.

"What were you thinking?" She asks once more. I wrap my arms around her small frame and put my face in the crook of her neck inhaling her honey and rose scent.

"Absolutely everything Ally. I'm sorry"

"Don't worry Galaxy, I could never be mad at you for so long. I care about you too much to just lose you in a blink of an eye"

I don't just care about you, I love you (Y/n). So much it hurts.
