"Keith, are you all right," asked Allura.
"Yeah, uh, I'll go get a drink."

Normal POV

We were hugging when someone's separate us bruptly.

"Keith," I asked shocked by his reaction.
"You were blocking the way to the drink," he replied with an harsh ton.

Why is he pissed off?

Lance went out winking a last tile and joined the rest of us to play with waterguns and all this stuff while I was drinking with an angry Keith.

"Why are you angry," I asked.
"I'm not."
"Yes, you are. So tell me why. What did I do?"
"I won't tell you."

He really gets on my nerve right now. Because I didn't want a bad mood here when everyone is so happy and relax for once, I put my drink and his on the table, took him by his hand and went on one of the small pool awah from the main where nobody could see us.

"Why are you upset for?"
"I told you I'm not."
"Kogane Keith, you will tell me why you are angry. Right now," I said now upset because of his behavior.
"I'm.not.telling.you," he replied and sit down in the little pool (maybe for children since the water when you sit is at you belly level). I was really angry now so I went in front of him, sit down and forced him to look at me by putting my hands on both side of his head.

"Keith, what did I do," I asked calmly.

Once again he avoided my question and my eyes. So I came closer to him so that the only thing he could see was me.

"Please."
"... close. You are too close," he replied clearly flustered by our proximity.
"If I don't do that you won't look at me."
"I'm not angry, not anymore. And it was for a stupid reason. It doesn't matter."
"It does matter to me. I hate it. I hate it when I feel like you hate me or something."
"I don't hate you," he shouted. "It's just it bothered me that Lance..."
"That Lance what?"
"That...uh...had a birthday party."
"...what? It was your reason?"
"I mean, I never I had one since I'm an orphan. I don't even know my birthdate."
"Keith..."

At that moment I didn't think twice of what I did, I just hugged him. I felt bad for thinking that the reason he gave me was stupid. Even though I was an orphan, I did know my birthdate and I had many birthday party because I had Shiro whereas Keith... sorry.

I hugged him tighter and stay in this position for a moment. I was standing on my knees, my arms behind his neck and his head. I'm sorry Keith.
Keith put his arms around my back hesitantly but then he dragged me closer in a way that our stomachs touched, in a way that there was no space in between. Then I felt his arms losing around my back and so I did the same and put my hands on his shoulders as he put his hands on my hips. We looked at each other for a time that seemed eternal. Because my knees hurt from this position, I sit up normally and thought that Keith would have took back his hands but he actually stared at me intensely that I felt my heart beating faster and louder, and my cheeks turning red. Frol this position we were at the same level. It was difficult to avoid his stare and I didn't want to avoid it. I enjoyed looking at him, at his face, at his eyes... at his lips. I felt something burning inside me that I never experienced before. I didn't know what it was but I liked this feeling. It was a warm and happy feeling. Whitout realizing it, I got closer to Keith and when I realized I thought he must think I'm crazy to come closer but I felt that I wasn't the only one who tried to get closer. Indeed, I could feel Keith's hands pulling me closer to him little by little. I didn't know what was coming but I wasn't against it. My hands that were on his chest gradually moved to his cheeks then his hair (His hair was a little wet and gave him a really sexy look). Keith followed my movement and gradually moved his hands from my hips to my neck and then my cheeks. We were now only a inch apart and we looked at his each other with something in our eyes, something feverish and burning. Finally, we broke our stares to look at each other lips and...

We stopped before anything happen. Before we kissed. We stopped due to the sudden voices that were getting closer and closer asking where Keith and I were.

We looked at each other in panic, realizing that we were going to kiss and that the other were coming. We both stood up and went in two different direction that still leaded ti the main pool.

"What are you doing here," asked Pidge when I quickly managed to get into the SPA.
"Uh, relaxing," I said smiling (a bit off)
"I think you stay in there a very long time, too much actually. You are really red, even your ears are red you know," said Allura worried.
"No it's okay, I'll stay here."
"Well then, we'll join you," said Allura.

***

Keith and I didn't talk much after that. I just stayed with Allura and Pidge. Hunk joined us a bit later and we talked together.

It was a fun day. It was...good. Maybe the best day that I had in a while.
