Regret...

Context: Allura is still live!

✵

The ex-red-Paladin was sprawled out on the sofa in the lounge room, by himself. He kept thinking of two people in general, Keith and Allura; he was thinking of himself like a tennis ball, one time he'd be with Keith and the next he'd be with Allura.

Allura and Lance where "going out" now, it was what Lance was hoping for when they first meet. But now he can't help but feel like Keith is even more distant with him, and Lance thinks he has an idea why.

Lance sighed and sat up, just as Pidge came into the room with her computer and headphones in.

"Hey Lance, I thought you where going to the training room today with Keith. Change your mind?" She smirked suspiciously at him, sitting down beside him on the couch.

Lance gave her a blank face, "Yeah, but I'm also kinda regretting not going too. But to add to that, I don't feel...right around Keith anymore. He has this vibe around him now, a very depressing one to add..." Lance shrugged and crossed his arms. "I think he likes me, and I think I like him AND Allura. I just feel so-"

"Lost, depressed, heartbroken - but also happy because you're with Allura?" Pidge tilted her head to the side.

Lance nodded slowly, "How did you know?"

Pidge smiled, leaning back further against the sofa. "Keith told Hunk and me something along those lines. That he was happy for you and Allura, but heartbroken too because he was making his crush on you so obvious. I seen it, Shiro seen it - but he already knew about it, and Hunk seen it - after I told him of course. The only people that didn't see it were, Allura, Coran, Curtis, Matt, you and Krolia."

Lance held his nose bridge, "Do you think that's why Keith was so upset when I lied to him that I didn't remember our 'bonding moment' ?" He stood up from where he was sitting and walked to the door.

"Where are you going?" Pidge sarcastically asked, knowing exactly where he was going.

"You know. I'll be back in 30." Lance rolled his eyes, he slipped his hands into his side pockets on his dark blue overalls and strolled outside the castle, only to find Keith attacking one of the practice dummies with his foot.

"Um...hey Keith." Lance awkward scratched the back of neck as he approached the other ex-paladin.

Keith stopped kicking the dummy for a moment, glanced at Lance then continued abusing the stuffed doll. "Hi."

Lance placed a hand on the small table inside the glass practice range. "So...I-uh came to talk with you about something, look Keith I-"

"If it's about me, you and Allura, then fuck off. I don't wanna talk about it, it was just a stupid kid-crush that I had. Ok." Keith glared at Lance for a good 2 minutes with slience filling the see-through room.

Lance swallowed a lump in his throat, "It should have been you, Keith."

"What?" Kogane raised an eyebrow at Lance.

Lance held lifted his arm from the table and held it, "I regret everything I said about you that was bad. I do like you, I always have. I think I got the feelings of love and hate mixed up. I know- I know it's stupid me only realising it now, Keith I am in love with you. But I don't know how to tell Allura that, she's already ask me to have sex with her. When in reality, I'm not ready for that yet; nor do I want it." He paused for a moment seeing water in Keith's eyes.

"I'm sorry, Lance. I'm sorry for running away with B.O.M, when I was supposed to be the leader of Voltron. I thought that if I left, you wouldn't leave. Then I seen two different paths for the future. The first one was, we ended up together but you get killed by the witch and I'm left alone again. Or the second path, the one where we are now." Keith hung his head between his shoulders, "I guess things just can't turn out the way you want they too. Huh?"

Lance set his hands on Keith's shoulders, as Keith lifted up his head to face Lance. "I know we can't be together, I know you're heart broken. But I just want you to know that I've always loved you. But Keith...we can't be anything more than friends, not now." He pulled Keith into a hug.

Keith let a couple of tears stream down his face, "It just hurts, loving you - but seeing you with Allura makes me...jealous. It sucks not being yours, you know."

"I know, Keith. I know." Lance's eyes fell heavy on him, before he knew it he too was crying. "I wanna give you something."

Keith looked back up at Lance again, "What?" His eyes a widened. Lance kissed him? But why?

Lance gentle placed a kiss on Keith's lips. The two closed their eyes and sobbed gently, knowing that they'll never be together.

"I'm sorry Keith. I hope you find a great person to love, like I did with Allura. We can still be together, just not in the way we hoped to. I love you." Lance placed a kiss on Keith's forehead, smiling he left to go back inside.

Keith turned back to the training dummy, he tried to punch it but was stopped by a hick upped cry. He held his face in his hands and fell to his knees, tearing up. He just wasted his very first kiss with someone that he loved, but could never be with...

That's another thing he'll regret...
