Third Person

"James, I swear to god. If you take me to another restaurant I will personally chop your dick off." Keith rolls his eyes as James pouts before lowering his finger. "Now where are we going on our next date?"

"You're already planning for your next date? I thought it was my turn?" Lance whines as Keith shakes his head.

"It's a do-over date, Lance. This idiot forgot to check the weather before taking me to this open rooftop restaurant in the city. Then forgot his wallet so I had to tell the waitress that I was a member of Voltron to make sure we weren't in debt." Keith explains as Lance snickers at the other alpha's mistakes.

"Damn, sounds like a waste of a day. And here I had planned a home cooked meal for us. I wanted to introduce you to mi familia properly and maybe play some games. Then when the moment was right...." Lance stands up as he walks slowly to behind Keith as he places his hands on his waist, causing the omega to preen. "... I would take you to the roof, serenade you with a song and give you a surprise."

"Aye, no. It's my turn, you can't hog him for yourself!" James growls as another voice; a feminine voice interrupted the three males.

"Why the hell are you both referring to my son as an object? Keith?" Krolia barks as Keith gently pushes out of Lance's arms to salute at his mother. "They told me I would find you in the living room and that you might be busy."

"Yeah... I kind of have these two courting me. By the way, what took you so long? They said that you were coming 2 weeks ago." Keith questions as she clears her throat before shaking her head with a dark purple blush.

"Never mind that. I'll have Kolivan explain to you shortly. But this courting? Is it anything like our proposals?" Krolia asks her own question as Keith gives a small nod. "I see. Well, I should let you continue. Kolivan and I will be waiting for you with the others. Come find us when you're finished."

"Will do." Keith responds as the alpha woman leaves, him exhaling as Lance smiles at him. "So whose turn is it? I really think you could use a day to think of something original James."

"Boom. My turn." Lance sticks his tongue out befroe looking to Keith with a slight look of fear on his face. "Um... Keith?"

"Yeah?" Keith tilts his head in confusion as his tail stops wagging carelessly; one of his ears pinned to his head.

"Oh mierda. So James and I have been talking about this whole courting competition... And we were wondering--!" Lance tries to ease his way into the conversation as Keith stares at him with a blank look, already knowing what the question was.

"You want to shorten the time? How short?" Keith questions, crossing his arms as James moves even closer to the two.

"After these two dates. James could take you to do something in the morning and in the afternoon, I can do what I have planned. Then the next morning, you state who you wish to be mated to." James explained as Lance nods as Keith closes his eyes to take in a deep breath.

"But why so suddenly?" Keith questions as Lance places a hand on his neck, his tail twitching every once and awhile.

"Your heat is coming up. Isn't it once every 3 weeks? I wouldn't want you suffering through your second heat without having a mate. So what do you say?"

"Keith, this has got to be the most stupidest thing you've agreed to. Why didn't you just end it there and chose your alpha!?" Pidge growls as she flops onto the fox's bed as Allura brushes his hair up.

"I want to give James a chance to make it up to me. I know that he's only doing out of guilt for leaving me alone at that party with that alpha and those betas. Lance has been nothing but sweet, putting my feelings above this entire courting process. Plus it would hurt both of their prides if I just ended it like that." Keith explains as Allura backs up, letting him look at himself in the mirror.

A simple black button up shirt with red dress pants. Hair in a sleek ponytail as his bang was styled to the side with a small purple clip of a juniberry flower. "Done. What do you think?"

"Thanks princess. I should get going, thank you two again." Keith grabs his keys and toolbelt before leaving through the front door with a small yet gentle smile.
