#NINE#

Shiro woke up to his whole body being still. His helmet laid at his feet, and his face was buried in someone's shoulder. He heard a soft groan, Shiro clenching his eyes shut as they moved. He didn't want to wake up just yet.

"Shiro." A voice groaned, Shiro cracked one eye open groggily.

"Dude, get you elbow out of my rib cage." Hunk said as he turned away from the white haired leader. Shiro frowned and moved his arm, "Who's buried in my shoulder?" He asked softly, his voice is a low purr.

"Me." Keith replied, his voice muffled. "Hi Keith." Shiro said calmly.

"Morning." Keith yawned as he snuggled deeper into the crook of Shiro's neck (having moved a bit). "Where'd Lance go?" Shiro teased lightly as he began to get woke more.

"Keith, there's a person clutching my leg!" Lance shrieked, which was soon followed by a crunch.

Shiro winced.

"What the heck dude?! That was my face!" Pidge's frail voice rang in the air. Lance pulling his knees to his chest quickly. "Ahh!" He screamed and Pidge held their face in both hands. "You monster!" Pidge shouted at Lance before managing to kick him in the shin (blinded vision and not hitting his arms, surprisingly).

"Shut up! Sleepy time!" Adam's voice roared as he sat up. His hair was a mess of dark locks, and his glasses were crookedly places on the bridge of his nose. Keith groaned and Shiro felt Keith's hands grip his upper arm. "Go make out with Shiro, Maybe then we could sleep!" He shouted, his voice volume dampened as he shouted into Shiro's body.

Adam's cheeks flushed and he quickly pushed himself back down. His elbow accidentally hitting Hunk's forehead as he went. "Hey!" Hunk made a small squeak and rubbed his skin. "Watch it dude." The yellow paladin said in a soft tone.

"Sorry." Adam apologized half-heartedly.

Then, to everyone's disappointment, the doors opened.

"RISE AND SHINE PALADINS!" Coran said loudly. His eyes then caught sight of Adam. "... AND SHIRO'S FIANCÉ!" He added.

In sync, everyone but the gorgeous man, let out a long sigh of frustration.

"Hate you." Pidge mumbled to Lance as they got up. Untangling limbs from random people. Lance blew Pidge a raspberry and that was that.

The tired Voltron team (and Adam) made their way down the hall. Shiro rubbing the sleep from his eyes as he saw Allura standing in front of them. Her eyes were sparkling, and a smile lit up her face.

"Paladins, welcome to our first meeting!" She stated formally. "Our?" Lance questioned. Allura opened the door behind her, revealing several Garrison workers. Pidge felt the urge to speak once they looked over the crowd.

"Hi dad!"
