lances pov

As i run to my dorm to grab my stuff i am stopped by hunk who wears an annoyed look. he holds out his arm to stop me.

"wha- hey! get out of my-!" im cut off when he holds my backpack out to me.

"dont think this will happen everytime you fuck up" he says with a gimance that i am so used to.

"oh, uh, thank you."i say accepting the backpack and give the boy a kind smile, he just walks away nudging my shoulder. even though it didnt hurt i feel myself rubbing the spot with my hand glaring.

"alright fine, be that way." i mumble and start a new walk to my next class. i sit down and ms. allura starts talking, teaching us about other aliens, her face lights up when ever i answer a question. i am one of the best students in this class. just a talent i have, i also remeber everyones name perfectly, its something im wary about, like if i dont remeber something bad will happen. i shiver slightly at the thought and continue my work.

i sit in my same spot in the garrison lunch room, keith sitting by side going on about how much fun the simulators were.

"dont you agree?" keith asks, i role my eyes at the boy who was so enthusiastic about the training simulators.

"of course you would love the training simulators you are the best at them." now im pretty good myself, but not as good as keith, he is the real tailor.

"hey lance" a voice says from my side, i turn to see matt has taken a spot next to me, his tray placed down and warm smile on his face.

"whos this?" keith asks me.

"this is matt gunderson i met him in the library. matt, this is keith yorak he is my best friend." keith glares him up and down as if inspecting him before holding his hand out.

"nice to meet you." he says, matt shakes his and and replys with same.

" i didnt expect the lone wolf to have friends"matt says with a smile, the name felt odd when labeled on myself, but others seemed to think it fit.

"i got this kid and his family, not as many as others but what can ya do" i reply. he shakes his head a little before asking another question.

"so is it true you punched a kid" he aks, his curiosity getting the better of him.

"thats not relavent" keith responds attempt to avoid the question, i role my eyes at the boy who seemed to always try and protect me.

"Nope, kids like making things up." i responded, matt nods and looks away before turning back.

" you dont seem like what others describe you as." matt says.

"your so curious." i respond to him, he just shrugs his shoulders.

" i am a scientist, i have to question all." he says pushing his glasses up.

" yeah alright. most people dont get close enough to know the real me. im a pretty friendly dude, just dont get on my bad side." i say, matt nods and then starts talking to keith. we laugh and talk turning lunch before a replica of matt comes by, almost looking the same except slightly longer hair and a more feminine frame if you look close enough.

"hey loser, whered you put my pencils."katie says walking up behind matt.

"its probably on your desk and you just missed it." matt groans at his sister.

"i checked- hey, why you hanging out with this kid?" katie asks her brother.

"cause you arent the boss of me and hes pretty cool." matt responds, she looks at me then back at Matt and just shrugs before walking off.

"nice to see you too pidge!"he shouts after girl who only flips him off as she walks away.

"pidge?" i ask the boy next to me.

"she likes to be called that because the green paladin was called that." matt says with a role of his eyes and a laugh at the statement. I go back to my food as we finish our conversation. we had a great time before i had to leave to study, as i walk to my room i see ms.allura.

"hello ma'am" i say and give her a salute as she passes, she is a comander and a crusial part of the greatalien war, its amazing that she came to work at OUR school.

"at ease cadet." she says, i didnt expect her to stop her walking. i slowly undo my stiff form.

"so how are you enjoying the school." she asks me, it felt kind of awkward, why would she want to know i am only a cadet.

"um...its a great school." i say with an uneasness to my tone, she nods her head slowly.

"im sure you miss your family being this far from them." she says, i give her a strange look. why is she talking about my family.

"uh... yeah i miss my mom, but uh...am i missing something, why are you asking my these questions?"i ask hoping i didnt offend her and just like that her body snapped straight.

"oh um... yeah right, sorry.go about your business cadet." she says then walks off, that was...odd. i dismiss the strange encounter and finish going to my room so i could study.
