(continued boy on boi)

"Lance, are you in here?"

Both the red and the blue paladins jolted and gasped, Keith promptly slamming his face down into Lance's shoulder as the door slid open. Lance flinched, but glanced over his other shoulder as a fellow paladin peeked in.

"Oh, hey... Shiro..."

The black paladin sighed and walked in. Keith mentally screamed at the older man. "What are you doing up so late? Is that Keith?"

Lance gulped. "Yeah, it's Keith. Quiet, though. I finally got him to sleep." He raised the blanket higher to completely cover their bodies. Shiro hummed and stepped closer. "So, uh... Why're you up so late?"

Shiro shrugged and sat beside them.

FUCK!

"Same old. Making a round in the castle. Can't sleep."

"Yeah." Lance nodded and shifted slightly. Keith bit down on his lip and curled this fingers into the blanket to keep back a soft moan. "I couldn't sleep either and Keith came in here because I wasn't in my room. Guess he's just worried about me."

Shiro chuckled. "Picking on him even when he's asleep. You're a cruel boyfriend." Shiro teased, nudging Lance. Stop making him move, you oblivious ass! "So, could I ask you something, while we're here?"

Hell no!

"Shoot."

Damnit, Lance!

Shiro sighed and carded his prosthetic fingers through his hair. "It's about Katie... Does she hate me? She's avoiding me and refuses to talk to me, except for indirectly. She refuses eye contact and she ignores me whenever I try speaking to her. I think I know why she's doing this, but I just... I don't want her to hate me."

Damnit, man! Could that have been any longer!?

Lance hummed and tilted his head back. "She... Pidge doesn't hate you. Even if she says she does. It's kinda 'girl code.' They mean the opposite,of what they say, except for 'I love you.' That's usually a typically honest line when it comes from a girl like Pidge." Keith reached under the blanket and pinched Lance's back. The blue paladin just shrugged and continued. "She's gonna ignore you for a while though because... Well, I'm not actually sure. She didn't tell us the whole story, but if I tell you what she told us, she's gonna murder me."

Shiro groaned and rubbed his face. "I just... It started after Keith left with the Galra."

"Which we all noticed."

"I was trying to ask her if... I was trying to think of a nice way to ask her to go... To go-"

"On a date or a hang-out?"

"I suppose a date, but then I noticed she was putting two-and-two together, but I wanted it to be a surprise so when she asked if I wanted to take Allura... I said yes." Shiro muttered. Keith resisted groaning.

Lance huffed. "My friend, that is the worst mistake you could have made with a fickle girl like our Pidge."

The hell, Lance!? Why are you dragging this on!?

The black paladin groaned. "I knew it... I knew it was the moment I said it.

"Look, man, right now, you just gotta have patience with her. Get her cornered, but don't make her feel cornered. You've got to explain to her how you feel." Stop this damn deep shit and fuck me, beanpole! "Tell her that she's the one you wanted to take out and you just wanted to surprise her, but it went wrong."

Shiro was quiet for a minute, seeming to absorb Lance's advice. Lance decided to take this time to move around. He held the blanket closed with one hand, his other placed on Keith's hip. Lance shifted his own hips, moving inside of Keith. Keith gasped softly, head tilting back. He then forced his head back down, burying his nose in Lance's neck. Thank King Alfor, Shiro was too deep in thought to notice.

"Then..." Shiro started, sounding puzzled. "Then, what about the other day?" Lance tilted his head and shifted his hips. Keith's nails dug into Lance's back. "When Keith and Pidge were play fighting and Thace... Thace said what Keith said...."

"Oh, yeah." Lance moved the blanket around, and tucked/tied it so it'd stay on it's own while covering them. He gripped Keith's hips with both hands. "That was..." He raised Keith's hips, Keith's grip tightening. "That was a disaster." He jerked Keith's hips back down onto himself. Keith bit down hard on his lip and pressed his forehead into Lance's shoulder. "About what she said, don't tease her about it anything until she's good with you again. Don't mention it or talk about it unless she pries about it." He raised Keith and pulled him down again. "But she's really just stressed and tired, Shiro. She can finally relax about her family being safe," he rotated his hips, "she had to hide her talking to Keith for months," he slowly raised and lowered Keith, "and we all know she blames herself for my eye and me being shot."

Shiro nodded, and stood. "Yeah... Thanks, Lance. Do you want me to take Keith?" Lance, surprised, accidentally yanked Keith's hips down at an awkward angle. Keith bit down on Lance's shoulder, tears threatening to spill from his tightly shut eyes.

"N-no, I got him... I'll take him back to his room, soon. You just go get some sleep." Lance gulped and nervously smiled up at the black paladin. Shiro nodded and turned on his heal. "Night, Shiro."

Shiro pat Lance shoulder, then began to leave. "Goodnight, Lance."

Once the door shut and Shiro was gone, Keith released Lance's shoulder and let out a long, deep moan. "Fuck you!" Keith hissed as Lance laughed.

"Kitten, that's exactly what you're doing." Lance purred, leaning forward and then latching his mouth onto Keith's neck. Keith moaned softly, tilting his head back.

The blue paladin lifted Keith then moved both their bodies so Keith was on his back and Lance was on top of him. Lance tucked the blanket under Keith to make him more comfortable. Keith wove his fingers through Lance's hair and tugged him down for a soft kiss. Lance hummed, hands caressing Keith's thighs as he raised his legs. He then swallowed Keith's sweet moans as he began rocking his hips.

Keith panted as they pulled apart, pulling on Lance's hair and moaning beathily. "L-Lance..."

Lance gently kissed him again, then smiled down at Keith. "I'm gonna be gentle, okay? It was all so rough and rushed last time." He leaned back down, then trailed fluttering kisses down Keith's neck. Keith tilted his head back, his back arching slightly, lips parted. Lance took one of Keith's hands and weaved their fingers together. "You're always so rough and I'm always rough with you. So, tonight, I'm going to be gentle. I want you to know that I respect your body as well as your heart and mind."

Keith opened his watery eyes to return Lance's gaze. He pulled Lance down for another kiss, squeezing Lance's hand. "I'm in love with you," he whispered. "So deeply in love with you..."

Lance chuckled softly. "I'm in love with you, too, Keith."
