Keith's pov
"I love you"I mutter. I could already feel my limbs shaking. I stare at my husband who lays in a bed, his older looking face holding a tired look.
"I love you too."he responds. I know this happens, people grow old and they die...I just....I wasn't ready. I grasp his wrinkled hand with my own, I give him a small smile as he gives a nod to the women who unplugs the machine keeping him alive. Soon a loud ringing enters the room and it's just me and the nurse who occupy it.
We lived a good life, a long life, but we didn't have enough time, we didn't get enough time together. The war took up so much of our time, we never actually got to live a life together, at least not one that feels complete.
We weren't given enough time.
Time skip
Correction he wasn't given enough time, I found since I am part galran I'll age as fast as humans but I'll live longer, so now I've gone ten years without the love of my life and I'm just so tired of not being with him.
The need to see him again is so strong that I think it was finally time to take matters in my own hands.
I hold my old dagger and take a deep breath.
"Shiro, pidge, Coran, Matt, hunk, lance....I'm coming"I whisper and soon I feel the blade plunge into my chest.
-
I sit up in my bed screaming as the hot pain fades away, the feeling of the cold blade entering my warm stomach fading as I gain consciousness. I scramble to my feet quickly and run to the mirror, instead of seeing my old sagging skin and wrinkles from age I see my tight face and younger looks. I breath out in huffs and scramble for my phone. Soon it's ringing.
"Keith? What are you doing up so late?"the voice asks, I feel a huff of breath escape my lungs as I hear the voice of the man I love, it hasn't changed and still sounds as rhythmic as it did so many years ago.
"I-I just....uh... I had a nightmare I guess, so I decided to call you first"I reply, not wanting to lie completely to him.
"Oh do you need me to come over?"he asks me through the phone and I hear ruffling.
"No-no it's fine"I say.
"To late I'm already half way there, see you in a few"he says and the phone hangs up. I feel a smile take form on my lips, he was always so kind and caring...
Soon I hear a nock on the door and I open it to reveal lance.
"Hey you okay?"he asks and enters my room without being invited in and closes the door behind him.
"Yeah, it's just kind of....freaked me out."I mutter and sit next to the boy on the couch.
"What was it about?"lance asks me. I hesitate on my answer not knowing if he should know the truth or not.
"You died..."I mutter, now he looks confused.
"Oh I'm...dude I'm sorry."he says, I just shrug it off and lean on his shoulder. He wraps his arms around me. The warmth of my husband felt so amazing...but I know to him he is just comforting a friend.
