Surprisingly I'm not dead!

*3rd person POV*

"QUICK LANCE, WERE ALMOST FREE!"

" Huuuunk! Shut it! " the Altean Prince whispers in an angry tone as they sprint down the hall's turning every so often to throw the Garasonian off.

"I can't help but but be exited, we've been trying to lose him all sumer!" Hunk mutters feeling guilty for admitting it.

Eventually they make a wrong turn running head first into Keith himself.

"Oomph!" The air is knocked out of Lance's lungs as he lands completely on top of the other prince.

"Hey, I was wondering where you guys went, if I hear Shiro talk about Adams eyes one more time in gonna be sick!" Keith said with a laugh.

For a second lance forgot. Forgot how to breathe, forgot how to move, forgot why he was trying to run!

A blush raises to the boys cheeks extraordinarily quickly when they realize lance still hasn't moved, Hunk takes matters into his own hands, lifting his friend of the raven haired cushion he had landed on.

After setting the young ruler on his feet and starting to briskly walk down the hall a little, Hunk turned around to see Keith walking a few feet behind. "Quick, put on some speed" he whispers in lances ear. Immediately the two break into a sprint, leaving the Garasonian prince in their dust.

- Time skip to dinner -

*lances pov*

I take my seat next to Allura and opposite Keith... I still feel torn. I've gotten myself to a place where I realize Keith really isn't that bad! But I acted with such hatred towards him before that I HAVE to keep going. When we ran earlier, I looked back for a second, I will never forget how sad he looked. He looks sad now. Sad, angry and embarrassed but he's a good actor! The others won't notice, Allura might, but it's all in the way he won't look at me. The table, walls, Shiro, anywhere but me.

We eat in silence as the adults talk about kingdoms or something.

Servants take the dishes away and the Garasonians take off quickly, Shiro to the gardens and Keith to the guest suit. Allura pulls me aside.

"What did you do?" She asks bluntly. She definitely noticed.
"Why yes dear sister, I agree! A fine dinner it was." I reply, earning me a royal glare.
"Something wrong your highnesses?" I almost screech when a voice sounds behind me.
"No hunk were fine," Allura says in a stern tone.
"Ok then," he starts polishing glasses a few feet away, he started working for the kitchen staff a while ago and new meals have been poping up a lot more since!
"What did you do to keith?"
" Nothing! "
"Lonce."
" we were just playing chase! "
"Did he know?"
"oooh that's what we forgot to do! Oops, oh well good talk sis."
"Nope," I'm lifted by my wrist by my freakishly strong sister suddenly after trying to run for it. "What's your problem with him, Lonce! You know he's going to be your husband someday so you can suck it up and get to know him or hate yourself later!"
" look when picking teams-"
"or friends!" Hunk adds
" Ill never chose him. "

I storm off to my tree house seeing as the sun hasn't set yet. I climb the ladder and push open the door, newly painted with a sign- 'no Garasonians allowed! '

I remember back to yesterday when my and hunk laughed writing that.

I sit in the wooden structure thinking about Keith. Tonight's his last night here for another year! I'll be 14 next time, weird. It's at this point I hear a sharp inhale from down below, I walk out to see Keith standing by the ladder and supports. He looks furious! Oh no... The sign. Welp this is my cue to be an asshole! Or... Fix things? I can try.

"Keith?"
" are you kidding me!? "
"What are you doing here?"
" you looked upset but clearly I'm the last person you want to see! " (He thinks I just wrote that!)
"Look Keith, you can come up if you want," I tried to sound as kind as possible . He looked confused but then began to climb, and then... Hunk came outside.
"Oi Keith, learn to read!"
The anger that washed over mullets face was actually terrifying!

In a split second he was back at the bottom and moving towards the supports.

Before anyone could say a word, Keith took a step and kicked one of the beams, then I'm falling.
The ground comes closer,
And closer
And closer
And then it all went black.

Needless to say, a broken leg and a concussion is not my idea of fun.

*Keiths POV*

All I saw was red.
I didn't even think.
Obviously it fell on me too!

A broken arm and fractured foot is not my idea of fun.

Not gonna lie... I like this chapter
