Chapter 20
It had been two weeks since Keith and Lance's wedding and Lance became Queen of the Moors. Keith no longer felt lonely now that he had Lance by his side. Lance was no longer human since he chose to become a fairy to be with Keith but it didn't mean he won't stop visiting his family. Keith could not stop staring at his wife. His beloved's hair, once as brown as chocolate, was now as white as the moon and his wings resembled those of a butterfly and the blue in them matched the markings covering most of his body. Lance noticed his husband staring at him and asks "Why are you looking at me like that?" Keith asks "Like what?" Lance answers "Like I'm a completely different person" Keith states "Well, you are. I'm proud that you made your choice but every time I look at you, it's like you're something new entirely" Lance smiles and says "Well, my fairy form took some getting used to. I had trouble learning to fly but you turned out to be a great teacher" Keith chuckles "Well, you did have trouble with the balance but at least you didn't look down while concentrating" Lance giggles "Good thing too. I almost fell a bunch of times"
Keith laughs at the memory of how many times Lance nearly fell down when Keith was teaching him to fly and says "You're always cute when you're clumsy" Lance pouts "I'm not cute anymore. I'm 21 years old and that's practically an adult" Keith smirks "That may be but you're still a little boy in my eyes" Lance blushes in embarrassment and states "Flattery will get you somewhere, husband of mine" Keith smiles and says "I'll be sure to remember that, my wife" Lance smiles at Keith but it stops his stomach starts feeling off and he covers his mouth with his hand and starts throwing up behind the bush. Keith notices starts rubbing his wife's back with one hand and soothing his hair with the other as he coos "Easy, darling. Let it out. It's okay" Lance stops puking and wipes his mouth in case of any stains and states "That was unexpected. This has never happened before" Keith agrees "It is unusual, yes. You've never been this sick like that"
Lance asks "Do you think it has something to do with my choice to stay with you?" Keith replies "Unlikely, though it is curious how it's affected your body" Lance asks "Do you have any doctors in the Moors?" Keith answers "No, but we do have the Direwolves, though. Kosmo and his pack are well-taught about medical studies. Maybe they'll find out what's wrong with you" Lance excitedly asks "Can we go to them, please?" Keith lightly scoffs "You just want to see Kosmo" Lance beams "Yes" Keith sighs "All right, as you wish" Keith and Lance flew to the mountains, home of the Direwolves, so they could figure out why Lance was suddenly feeling sick. They land softly on the ground as Kosmo excitedly runs towards them and pounces on Lance who falls down on the ground while Kosmo licks his face and Lance giggles "Easy boy, I missed you too" Keith chuckles "Wow, if Kosmo loves you that much, we should keep him" Kosmo barks happily at the idea until he starts sniffing and places one of his ears on Lance's stomach as Lance asks "Why is he lying on my stomach?" Keith kneels down next to his wife and his eyes widen as he answers "Lance, I don't think you're sick"
Lance asks "What do you mean?" Keith replies "Direwolves have a strong sense of both smell and hearing. They use these senses to detect the heartbeat of an unborn pup" Lance's eyes widen as he asks "Are you saying... I'm pregnant?" Keith nods his head as Lance gasps "But how? I'm a male" Keith explains "We fairies have a choice when it comes to children. It's either the male or female that decides who the child's vessel will be" and asks "Remember the night we had when we talked about having children?" Lance answers "Yes, I remember telling you that I would love to be a mother to our children and then you said that you would be honored to hear them call you "Father" for all your days" and when Lance asks "Keith, is this really happening?" Keith smiles and replies "The nose knows" Lance smiles and asks "Do you think we're ready for this?" Keith gently holds his wife's hands and replies "I want this child, Lance" Lance beams "Then me too, Keith"
Keith and Lance told Allura and Romelle the news and both mothers were happy to be grandmothers and Lance's stepsisters were overjoyed to be aunts that they could not stop asking their big brother a lot of questions. Amue asks "How far along are you? Is the baby a boy or a girl?" Fala asks "Is it kicking yet? How does it come out?" and after these questions, Lance answers "I'm eight weeks. We don't know the answer to either of those and you'll have to wait until you're both older" Fala and Amue say "Okay". After telling the four pixies, all four of them began what would seem like an endless cycle of quarreling for the title of "Godparent" but when Keith states "None of you are getting the title" the four pixies ask "Why not?" Keith answers "Because you're irresponsible and terrible with children" Lance agrees "I still get nightmares from the spiders you gave me" Coran says "The spiders were actually dead and they tasted good in my opinion" Pidge argues "I told him that kids don't eat bugs but no, he didn't listen" Matt states "Yeah, he's a terrible cook" Hunk agrees "And a horrible fashion designer"
Keith and Lance are lying on the grass with Kosmo napping on Lance's lap since the Direwolf insisted that he stay with them as Lance asks "Keith, if the baby's a boy, what would his name be?" Keith thinks for a moment and answers "Honestly, if it's a boy, I would name him "Lune" after the moon so I'll know he's always there to light up the night" and asks "What if it's a girl? What would you name her?" Lance replies "I would name her "Sol" after the sun so she'll fill our lives with her shine" Keith smiles and says "They're both beautiful names as long as they're ours and ours alone. I can't wait to be a father" Lance smiles and says "I can't wait to be a mother and I'm so happy we're going through this journey together" Keith kisses his wife and states "Yes, together"
