First Things First
"KEITH! GET BACK HERE!" Lance screamed as he ran down the dorm halls. Keith was laughing and Lance was soaked. "KEIIIIITH! I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONVERSATION!" " A conversation with what? The air?" Keith laughed. Lance caught up and pounced on the other boy. "Oof-"Keith yelped. Lance landed on top of him pining him down. Keith's face flushed. Lance, however, didn't notice. "Uh-Lance-" Keith stuttered. Watch your back next time, mullet." Lance smirked and got up off of the smaller boy leaving him wet as well and dumbfounded. " Man, where'd you find that bucket of water to dump on me?" Lance laughed as he squeezed and twisted the bottom of his soaked shirt. Keith shrugged as he got up. "The pool." He said flatly. Lance turned to Keith. " Better watch it, mullet, or else I'm going to drag you into the pool next." Lance pointed a finger to Keith's chest. Keith bit his lip, why was he feeling this way? He swatted Lance's hand away, "I'd like to see you try, sharpshooter." He whispered. Lance felt chills go down his spine. They stared at each other for a brief moment before- "Lance!" Allura called, she ran to him and gave him a hug. Lance's eyes shined and he blushed. hugging her tightly he said, " Hey, Allura." Keith felt his heart shatter. What is going on with me? He thinks. He crosses his arms over his chest and took this as his cue to leave. He turned to his dorm room, but something grabbed his wrist. He turned around. Lance. " Where are you going?" Keith stood there staring into his deep ocean blue eyes. counting the freckles that dotted his face like stars. His dark chocolate brown hair that smelt like sweet ocean air and coconuts. He zoned out. "Keith? are you going to answer my question or what?" Lance asked. Keith snapped out of his trance. "I-uh-yeah, sorry I spaced out." Lance dropped his hand, and Keith felt the cold creeping up his arm. " Where are you going?" Lance asked again a little frustrated. " Oh, I was headed to my dorm." Keith said, fidgeting with his hands. "Why?" Lance asked. Keith scowled a bit. "Why can't you just let me leave?" He mumbled. Lance grew in anger. " Hey man, I was just checking up on you. You clearly don't appreciate that so leave then I guess." He said harshly. "what's that supposed to mean?" Keith snapped. Lance glared at him. " It means get the fuck out of my face!" He yelled. Keith tried to hide the sadness that showed in his eyes. " Fine! if that's what you want, I'll leave you the fuck alone! happy?" Keith yelled back, his voice breaking. " Guys-" Allura tried. " No need." Keith mumbled and he walked away.
