Lance's p.o.v:

    Pidge left the kitchen with her father and brother to walk them out of the house and say their goodbyes as Lance stood there with his omega's face buried into his chest, truthfully he didn't know what to do because he didn't know what had made his mate so distraught. Did he not want to be bonded to him? Or was it the fact that he was pregnant that bothered him so? Lance thought the bond was kind of romantic in a way.. but maybe Keith thought of it as a curse. When Mr.Holt informed them about Keith's results he was so happy that his mate was with child that he didn't really think about how Keith would feel about it. Maybe Keith doesn't want to go through with it..

He kept gently rubbing circles into Keith's back as he waited for what seemed like the right time to speak. "Kitten, can we go to our room and talk after you've calmed down a little more?" Lance asked quietly, his head which was gently resting on top of Keith's moved slightly when the other nodded. Shiro walked in and gave Lance a questioning and seemingly angry look with his arms crossed before he came closer to the two. "Kiddo, are you okay?" Shiro asked when Keith turned his head to see who had entered the room. The omega nodded and wiped his face before he started moving his hands in response. Lance didn't understand a single thing his partner was signing and then suddenly what Pidge said earlier came to mind, 'Shiro. Can. Not. Find. Out.' Why would that matter to Shiro? It's not any of Shiro's business anyway. But what if Keith was telling him that right now? Well it didn't seem that that was what they were signing about, Shiro's face was too calm for that kind of news. "Alright, fine. You can go back to sleeping in that room but if anything happens, let me know right away." Shiro sighed before patting the omega's head and presumably heading off to his own room for the night. Lance and Shiro weren't on bad terms but him casually touching his pregnant omega like that irked him quite a bit.

Lance picked up Keith's notebook and pen and handed it to him, then he scooped up his mate into his arms and carried him towards their room. Keith opened the door for him because Lance's hands were clearly full and Lance closed it afterwards by kicking it back with his foot, this was something they haven't done in a long time. He had truly missed the little things like this. Lance carried Keith over to their bed and set him down, then went back to lock the door before joining him on the bed. He got comfy before inviting Keith to cuddle with him by patting his chest, as if their routine had never been broken Keith laid his head down on Lance's chest without the slightest hint of hesitance. His mate was no longer crying but he still looked sad to Lance and that bothered him, he didn't like that there was seemingly nothing he could do right now to help make his mate feel better.

As he stroked Keith's hair he continued to wonder what his mate was so upset about and what he could do to make him happier again, he'd do anything. Lance's thoughts were interrupted by the feeling of tapping on his arm, Keith was trying to get his attention and when he realized he had finally gotten it he pointed to their nightstand lamp. Ah, he might want to write and it's too dark. Lance reached over and turned it on and just like he thought he would, Keith started writing. 'What'd you want to talk about exactly?' Is what it read. "Well... how you feel about the bond, the news about you being pregnant, and why you had gotten so upset out there." Lance replied calmly and quietly as he fixed his omega's hair so it was out of his eyes.

Keith looked uneasy as he stared at his notebook, as if he just didn't know how to start writing his answer. Lance placed a kiss on the other's cheek, hoping he'd understand that he was there for him even if he didn't want to answer. He read it as Keith wrote it down, 'I don't know, I guess I got a little overwhelmed with everything that we were just told. I'm also sorry that you've basically gotten chained to me with this bond.' Lance couldn't believe what he had read, he looked to his mate for some kind of explanation but Keith was no longer looking his way. Not only did he want an explanation as to how Keith thought Lance was 'chained' to him, he wanted to hear his thoughts about the baby. It seemed as if Keith left that last part out on purpose.
