Chapter 13~ Back

-Lance-

Lance at though the woods, his heart seemed to be pounding in his chest. He quickly turned the corner, hearing Keith call his name for the last time. Lance continued to run till his lungs hurt, and blacked out when he collapsed into the forest floor.

Lance woke up a few hours later to a voice. Who...? Lance lifted himself from the ground, not bothering to brush off the dirt, and stumbled through the forest, towards the voice. It seemed to stop as soon as it came, and he paused as he spotted a short boy, with a raven-haired mullet, and a girl with short hair. "Keith..?" Lance asked, suddenly afraid as he saw the boy pause.
"Lance..?" The boy asked after a few seconds, turning around. Lance was relieved to see that it was Keith.
"Yeah, Keith" Lance sighed Relieved.
Keith ran over to him and hugged him tightly, burying his face in the crook of Lance's neck.
"Lance-oh my god- lance- it's really you!" He talked fast, sobbing uncontrollably into his neck.
Lance blushed slightly, smiling.
"Yeah.. it's really me.." He couldn't believe Keith found him.
Keith broke the hug, and slapped Lance, "Why the hell did you run off like that!?" He shouted.
Lance looked down, feeling guilty, "I-I was scared, and sad, and upset-"
"And you scared me!" Keith yelled, tears streaming down his cheeks.
Lance was crying by now, "I'm sorry! I-I'm sorry! I missed you!" Lance quickly hugged Keith again, crying loudly.
Keith looked at Pidge, who was watching them. She was happy. She wasn't looking at him teasingly. She was happy.
Keith smiled, wiped his own tears away, and ran his fingers through Lance's short hair, "Hey.. it's okay man.. I missed you too.." he soothed, kissing him on the head. Lance's face heated up as he gulped back more sobs.
Keith began to lead Lance back to his own house, whispering soothing words to Lance the intire time.
By the time they made it to Lance's front door, his crying had died down to a near whisper.
"K-Keith I d-don't wanna go in-n" Lance looked at Keith's hand as he lifted it and intertwined his in Lance's fingers.
"You will be okay Lance. Your mother will be thrilled to see you" Keith soothed.
Lance shook his head, squeezing Keith's hand slightly, "I d-don't wanna go to court, o-or anything like that" Lance sniffed, beginning to cry more.
Keith hugged Lance as tight as he could, "Hey, Hey, it's okay... you won't go to anything like that. Your mother didn't call the police, so you won't be doing anything of the sort" Keith smiled in triumph as Lance let out a sigh of relief.
"Alright.... L-Let's get this over with"
Keith opened the door and stepped inside, Leading Lance with him. Pidge followed close behind.
