Chapter 12: Blue Freckles
(I wish I had a picture to show you guys of what I was thinking, but I'm not that talented yet. But if anyone makes art of this, please send it to me, I'd love to see. Love you all, this is a cute chapter, good bye)
Tears fill Lance's eyes as he looks down at the smiling child. Lance loves him. His white tuff of hair, that falls in front of his eyes, blue eyes, and blue freckles that melts perfectly with the bronze skin. Lance loves him. "Hello hermoso," (beautiful or handsome) Lance coos at the babe trying to grab at his finger. "Aw, he already has teeth," he whispers as the boy nibbles at his pointer finger.
"Wow," the team gasps, smiles on their faces as the door slides open, and Lance smiles back.
"You wanna hold him Pidge?" He asks, titling his head to the side, and she froze. Which he loves.
"Can— can I?" She asks aw struck while her hands hesitantly reach out for Lance's son. Lance, still smiling, hands over the newborn to the younger paladin. The babe looks up at her confused from a moment, before reaching out for her golden brown locks, giggling. "Aww, hey there little guy," she coos at him. The baby truly is precious, and nothing like Lotor. This sweet, innocent face belongs to a child, not a monster.
A hum leaves Lance as he watches his friends crowd around his baby," your an aunt now Pidge," he says, and she looks up at him with red cheeks and wide eyes, embarrassed.
"Wait! Does that also make me and Shiro uncles?" Hunk asks.
"What do you think, buddy?" Lance snickers, his head tilts playfully to the side. Hunk squalls playfully, making the babe giggle more in Pidge's arms. Keith stood there stunned, the baby looks almost like Lance. "Keith?" Lance asks, pulling on his sleeve," do you wanna hold him?" he hesitantly asks. Eagerly, he nods, cheeks red.
Pidge, full of joy, passes over the baby boy into Keith's arms. For a moment, Keith looks down at the smiling thing, tears fill his eyes. "I love him."

Lance hums gently, rocking his body softly, baby asleep on his shoulder. It's cute. A calm smile and eyes gently closed, body swaying to the soft tunes. The babes name is Liam.
The nurse had given him two books, of one Glara hybrids, and the other on babies. It is normal for Liam to look more human, Galra genetics aren't as strong as other aliens, so it's normal for Liam to look more like Lance. Liam's teeth were fully grown the day he was born, that to is normal. They are tiny, and sharp, like little wolf fangs.
"Hey Keith, did you have fully grown teeth when you were a baby?" Lance asks, sitting next to the red paladin, baby drooling on his shoulder, asleep.
"How was I supposed to know?" Keith says, leaning on his hand, smiling gently at Lance.
"You sure?" Lance teases.
Keith chuckles," I'm sure," he says while staring happily at Lance. Lance is glowing with life. Without thinking, Keith leans in, kissing Lance by surprise on the lips, but Lance melts into it.
Pulling away, Lance smiles," your so cute," Lance chuckles with a blush on his cheeks.
"Says the one who's practically glowing," Keith playfully retorts, leaning forward with a smug look on his face.
Lance scoffs," I'm always glowing," he boasts, cockily.
"Oh will you stop with the lovey dovy banter," Pidge chuckles, entering with Hunk.
"Yeah, just kiss already," Huck smiles as he sits across from the two.
"Already done that buddy," Lance points finger guns at him with a smile and wink. Everyone starts laughing as if they had nothing to worry about, but then, the alarms starts to blare, waking Liam. "Oh, honey it's ok. Calm done, momma's got you," he whispers to the crying baby.
"We'll be right back, Lance, you stay with here with Lia—"
"No," Lance blurts. "At least I can help Coran. You go," he orders coldly.
A sight, and soft smile leaves Keith," alright," he whispers," we'll be right back," he hushes gently before kissing his forehead. Taking a deep breath, Keith kisses Liam's forehead, calming the child." Be good for mamma now," he asks, before running after Pidge and Hunk.
"Ok," Lance's voice quivers. "Good luck."
