My art.

Y/n's POV

"Each of you are going to be paired off into duos. We're going to see how well you do against each other." Coran states. Allura had been wanting to see how well we worked together with a partner against the others, so Coran was putting her wish into action. The Altean splits us up: Hunk with Pidge, Keith with Shiro, and Lance with me. I activate my bayard, enjoying the familiar weight in my hand.

"You ready?" Lance asks, holding his rifle in hand.

"I'm always ready, lover boy." I smirk, teasing Lance. Coran quickly leaves to safer ground. I look up at a loud mew and see the Lions, all in their Peltsons, gazing down at us. They had taken on their favorite sizes, which were house cat sizes.

"Begin!" Coran shouts. I rush forward, attacking Shiro. He was probably our biggest threat. Hunk and Pidge would be easy. Keith I could handle. Shiro sees me run toward him and dodges my attack. I shoot a couple arrows at him as he launches himself back at me. I roll to the side as he slices close to where I stood. Lance was occupied with Hunk, while Pidge and Keith were dueling. Somehow, during the training exercise, I end up fighting Keith. I backpedal as Keith slices at me with his bayard. I could tell he was holding back though. I fire a stun arrow at him, which he deflects, exposing his midsection. Diving in, I elbow his stomach, causing him to fall over. I flip him onto his back and hold him down with my bow.

"Stop holding back." I say as Keith struggles.

"But I don't want to hurt you." Keith replies, attempting to push my bow upward, but I had him pinned.

"You can't be afraid of hurting me. What if Zarkon got ahold of me and brainwashed me into attacking you. I wouldn't be able to hold myself back." I state. Keith manages to maneuver his hands under my bow and throws me upward. I squeak and land away from him. Keith is on me in an instant.

"I would never let that happen." He pants, pinning me. I wiggle my hand around and cram my thumb into a pressure point in his hand. Keith gasps as his hand goes numb and I wiggle out of his grasp.

"Don't make promises you won't be able to keep, Keith." I say, firing a rope arrow at him. Keith falls over, encased in glowing blue ropes. "I don't want you to get hurt because of me."

"And I don't want you to get hurt because I didn't do something about it." He says, cutting through the ropes. Before I respond, Keith had his arms wrapped around me tightly, holding me back. He leans forward and pecks my cheek. "I love you too much to not do something."

"Never let your guard down." I smirk, flipping him over my head and onto his back. He reaches up and pulls me down with him, straight into a kiss. I stop in surprise, then start to giggle as I hear loud gasps.

"We have an audience." I laugh.

"I don't care." Keith states, standing up. He pulls me up as well, and turns to the others. Shiro, Hunk, and Pidge were smiling at us, while Lance looked at us in shock.

"YOU TWO ARE TOGETHER?!" Lance exclaims.

"Uh, yeah." Keith replies.

"SINCE WHEN?!" Lance shouts. Blue comes running down and jumps onto her Paladin's shoulder. She mews into his ear, rather loudly, I might add. Whatever she said apparently surprised Lance, because his eyes got even wider.

"WHAT?!?!" Shiro laughs at Lance's reaction.

"Maybe it's time we head in and get some lunch." Shiro recommends.

"Ooo, and I've got the perfect recipe!" Hunk exclaims. Keith loops his arm around my waist and we walk out, while Lance pesters us with questions.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME?!"

"SHUT UP, LANCE!!"
