A/N: Please read the first part first, this is a second part of Keith who is anorexic [ana].
-Contains mentions of purging.
*hints of Klance*

Ever since Lance saw Keith collapse in the training room, Lance has kept an close eye on him. He tried talking to both Shiro and Keith about what happened but they almost gave the identical answers which made Lance feel like they had went over what they were going to say if asked.

The first few incidences were easy to write off. He probably had a big lunch. Or he probably just not feeling great and is too cocky to admit it which Lance figured sounded like Mullet. He probably doesn't want to eat any more of whatever questionable meal Coran prepared today and Lance couldn't blame him, it was totally understandable. But even on days where he couldn't possibly have had time for lunch because they were called away for a mission or on days where Hunk made a strangely large feast, Keith just barely picks at his dinner.  Then there were meals, days were Keith ate full meals, he seemed happier and smiled over at them, making Lance feel bad for thinking the worst of Keith. 

"Maybe I'm seeing what I want to see'' thought Lance but he just couldn't shake the feeling he had in the pit of his stomach.

As Lance kept watching Keith, he kept picking up signs that Keith didn't do so well with food, even though at times he did see him eat.

One night at dinner really shinned a light on this. Hunk had made dinner which everyone was happy about except Lance could see a small frown on Keith's pale face. He barely ate his food as most of his attention was on Keith. As the meal went on, he noticed that most of the food on Keith's plate wasn't touch but something else happened that made him think Keith might be smarter than he lets on; he always keeps food on the end of his fork and gestures wildly with it as he distracts the team when he was talking to Pidge about different conspiracy theories. If you weren't looking closely, it definitely seems like he's eating, but Lance was looking closely. 

Once most were done, Lance watched Keith disappear out of the mess hall and he went right away over towards Shiro to try and get some answers because in the back of his mind, Lance knew the truth, Keith had an eating disorder.

"Shiro, can I talk to ya for a sec?" asked Lance and Shiro nodded his head and pulled Lance off into the corner. Lance could tell by the look in Shiro's eyes that he was concerned about whatever Lance had to say to him.

"What's up?" asked Shiro as he crossed his arms over his chest. Lance sighed, preparing himself.

"Does Keith have an eating disorder?" Lance asked and watched as Shiro's eyes widen slightly before he glance down at the floor. ''Shiro?'' questioned Lance, the silence was bothering him but yet answering his question as well.

"Yeah. Keith's anorexic, been that way for a few years now. He was doing better but....after I was taken, he relapsed. It's my fault, I should of-" said Shiro but Lance cut him short.

"It's not your fault Shiro. Clearly you have done your best. That night in the training room, was that because of..." Lance said.

"Yeah, he hadn't been eating and was working himself too hard. He was embarrassed that he slipped up again, shamed actually. I...Lance, I fear he might need more than my help this time'' Shiro said and lowered his head.

"Do you...do you think he will let me help him out?" asked Lance. Shiro shrugged his shoulders, for he remembered how difficult it was for Keith to let him in and try to help him.

"I don't know Lance'' said Shiro then patted his shoulder, "But all we can do is try, right?" he said as he walked past Lance and out of the mess hall.

---------------------------------------------------------------

Keith began walking down the hallway. He was heading off towards the training deck to get in a work-out before he tried to go to bed, but his body had other plans for him.

As he was walking, his vision began to blur as he stumbled here and there down the hallway. Keith shook his head and blinked quickly, trying to shake off the heavy feeling his body felt now. He could hear mumbling off in the distance but he couldn't focus on who's voice it belonged to. Keith sighed, he knew that he was messing up again. He had told Shiro that he was doing better. Keith had noticed that Shiro and now Lance were keeping an eye on every meal but the last week an half seemed like Shiro lent up.

"or maybe he finally gave up on me" thought Keith.

After seeing him eat they smiled but what they didn't know was that Keith was going back to his room and throwing up, plus training more at night when all of the castle was sound asleep.

Everything began to go dark as the room began to spin. Keith felt himself falling closer towards the floor as he heard a scream.

----------------------------------------------

Lance was walking down the hallway with Hunk. He was so overwhelmed by all of this that he had to, need to talk to his best friend about Keith and to get some advice. Just as they turned the corner, Lance had just told Hunk that Keith is anorexic and then they saw Keith fall down to the ground.

"KEITH!" yelled Lance as Hunk gasped. They both dashed forward to their fallen team mate and friend.

Lance fell to his knees and scooped Keith's head up and laid his head on his lap. Lance looked up at Hunk with worry and fear in his blue eyes.

"I'll...I'll go get someone" said Hunk as he turned and hurried down the hallway to get some help. Lance sighed and brushed some of Keith's hair out of his eyes. He looked down at Keith's face.

To him, Keith looked much paler. As he sat here just waiting for someone to help, fear continued to rise inside his chest.

"Why had Keith collapsed? He has been eating, I've seen him a few times eat so why? Maybe he overworked himself? I just hope he is alright." Lance thought as he ran his fingers gently through Keith's midnight hair.

Hunk and Shiro came rushing down the hall suddenly, he froze when he saw Keith before jumping into action and taking Keith into his arms.

"Coran and Pidge are preparing a pod as we speak, but we need to hurry'' said Shiro as Hunk and Lance followed them. They all rushed towards the pods, all having fear rise inside their chest. Shiro kept glancing down at Kieth, his little brother, in his arms.

He knew as soon as he picked up Keith that something was really wrong, he was too light, much lighter than he should be, which mean that things weren't going as good as Keith portrayed it to be. Shiro began to blame himself, he couldn't believe how stupid he was for just taking Keith's word at it, so many things had been going on with Voltron that when he asked Keith how things were going he frankly didn't have the time to dig deep and find the truth, so he took him for his word and pushed it down and allowed his little brother to continue to slip and fall deeper and deeper.

He sighed as he gently laid Keith into the pod, a part of him didn't want Keith out of his arms, he just wanted his safe and protected.

The pod closed and they all looked at Keith, not knowing how long he was going to be inside the pod and what the out come would be.

Everyone looked at Shiro for answers and he knew that he couldn't keep Keith disease a secret anymore. So with a sigh, Shiro turned from facing Keith's pod and told the team the truth, even though he knew that once Keith found out that everyone knew his secret, that he would probably be pissed at Shiro, because years ago Shiro had made Keith a promise to not tell anyone.

--------------------------------------------

The pod slowly opened after a few quintants in the mid of the night. The only one who was inside the room when the pod open was Lance.

Keith fell forward out of the pod and Lance jumped up and caught him safely in his arms. Keith slowly lifted his head up, blinking his violet eyes a few times before he spoke in a whisper.

"L-Lance...wha-what h-happened?" asked Keith and Lance sighed as he slowly pulled Keith over towards the couches.

"Keith you collapsed and..." but Lance stopped speaking as he saw Keith's face drop. "Keith I know. I...I know about your...eating dis-disorder, we all do'' said Lance and his blue eyes widen when they connected with Keith's violet eyes that held so much fear in them. 

Before Lance knew what was happening Keith was crying in his arms. Lance wrapped his arms tightly around Keith and he inhaled, feeling how small he really was. Lance closed his eyes as he shushed Keith as he sobbed and kept whispering 'I'm sorry' between his sobs. Lance pulled Keith closer, wishing is could take all of Keith's pain away from him.

"It's okay Keith...It's okay'' whispered Lance as he planted a small kiss on Keith's head and held onto him until he passed out from crying.
