VLD || ONESHOTS AND PREFERENCES

Opposites (Lance x Fem!Reader)

I walk through the castle corridors, walking pass my room then stopping, at the sound of what seemed to be crying, it wasn't normal for me to hear crying, in the castle no less.

Retracing my steps it reached back to (Y/N)'s room, I stood outside her room, contemplating whether I should intrude. I relaxed myself and knocked.

I hear the crying stop, and footsteps followed, she opens the door.

"Oh, hey Lance." she said, she wasn't meeting my eyes

"Hey, I was just here to check on you, you doing okay?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'm just stressed, you know, like stress crying?" she explained, it wasn't convincing but I didn't want to intrude.

"Alright, but if you really aren't doing so good, you can tell me, okay? I'm just one room away," I said trying to lighten the mood

She smiled, I couldn't help it, my smile got bigger and I bet I looked like a goof telling from how she laughed looking at me.

"Laaance, stop it, you're literally beaming!" she laughed even more

"Alright, alright, I'll be on my way, remember I'm just-"

"Yeah, yeah mister, you're one room away," she finished my sentence and waved me off

As soon as she closes the door, my smile drops, I frown.

I walk back to my room and collapse as soon as the door closes, tears start to stream down my face.

All I did was laugh bitterly, I hugged myself in hopes to calm my shaky self, it obviously didn't work.

I woke up bright and early, I was feeling much better today, I should visit Lance. It'd only be fair to wake him up as a 'thank you'.

Walking to his room I thought of how I should thank him.

"No, maybe I should say a simple thank you? No no, should I hug him? No, we aren't that close to hug yet-" I mumbled to myself

"(Y/N)? What are you doing here?" Pidge asked

I looked around and realized I got too distracted and walked past Lance's room.

"Oh, I was gonna go to Lance's room, I guess I overshot it," I said, embarrassed at myself

Pidge smiled whole heartedly

"It's fine, you should go wake him up now, or he'll definitely get a scolding from Allura," she suggested before walking away

I jogged back to Lance's room, I stood in front of his door.

I took a deep breathe to calm myself and knocked on his door, there was no response, I knocked again.

After a few knocks I decided to just open the door, as soon as I do I find Lance fast asleep on his bed, I smile at the sight.

"Lance, wake up, we need to go," I whispered

He grumbled in response, I crept closer and whispered again

"Lance, come on, you need to get up," I whispered, I sat at the side of his bed

I started to shake him awake, but he wasn't responding.

"You're a stubborn one aren't you?" I mumbled to myself

I sat there, on his bed, thinking of other ways to wake him up.

"Maybe I should just shout his name, or maybe just poke his face?" I started talking to myself

"(Y/N)?" Lance says groggily as he sat up, slightly scaring me

"Jeez! Don't scare me like that," I complained

"Sorry," he smiled in slight adoration

"Come on, get dressed, we need to have some breakfast before we start training," I told him

"Alright, alright, I get it mom," I chuckled at his remark

"You can thank me for not getting a scolding from Allura today,"

As he stood I realized he wasn't wearing a shirt, I averted my eyes and my face started to feel heated.

"I should go ahead and give you some privacy," I rambled, rushing towards door

———

I don't know what came over me, but I was feeling quite selfish. I didn't even realize I was grabbing (Y/N)'s arm.

"No wait-" I said, sounding like I was begging

But even if I was, I really didn't want her to leave.

"Are you alright?" she asked me calmly, but I could feel that she was a little shaken up

"Sorry, I'm just-" I mumbled, letting go of her arm; not wanting to make her uncomfortable.

"Lance." I heard her say, she holds my hand

"Are you okay?" she asked again

"No, not really," I answered honestly, I'm just so tired

"I'm just so tired," I continued, sitting back down on my bed

———

I frowned at the sight, I sat beside him. We both sat in silence, surprisingly I'm still holding his hand.

"Do you want to talk about it?" I asked, I felt him squeeze my hand

"Is that a no?" I asked jokingly hoping to lighten the mood, but he didn't laugh

I looked at him, he wasn't like this yesterday, it was quite saddening.

"Lance, did something happen yesterday?" I asked

He looked at me, I was quite confused, but I outstretched my arms awkwardly.

"You want a hug...?" I asked, unsure

———

Whatever came over me, probably wasn't pleasant for her, but as soon as she offered that hug, I fell into her arms.

I felt warmth, safety, weird. All those feelings mixed into one.

"I'm so sorry you had to see me like this," I apologized again

"Lance you don't have to be sorry about your feelings," she told me

I nodded, we sat in silence for a little while, enjoying each other's company.

"Now will you get dressed? We kinda need to eat breakfast," she joked

"Yeah okay," I said as I got up, I pulled on the clothes I saw in my mess of a room

———

I laid down on the bed as he changed.

After a few minutes of hearing shuffling in the room, I opened my eyes to see him standing in front of me, he outstretched an arm.

"Shall we?" he asked

I grabbed his hand and opened the door.

"Come on, we're going to be the last ones there," she nagged

"Whatever you say, mom,"
