Glad to be here (Klance fanfic)

Chapter 11

"Well thank you Lumi! You're so strong! You're my hero!"

"Heewo!!!" He repeated happily

"Lu do you want to come with eomma to the store? We need to get groceries for food"

Lumi visibly brightened even more at that, he nodded enthusiastically and quickly left to go put up his toys and put on his shoes, Keith smiled at him as he too put on shoes, he checked his phone for the time, he looked out the window and saw that it was rainy outside so he grabbed a jacket for him and lumi and also grabbed his red umbrella

Once lumi had his jacket on he noticed the brightness of the umbrella and pointed at it

"Oma wats dat?"

"Hm? Oh it's an umbrella, it keeps you safe from the rain"

"Umbewwa?"

Keith nodded and picked him up he grabbed his wallet and put it in his back pocket, he decided they'd just walk to the store since it isn't far away

He went outside with lumi in his hand and the umbrella in the other, he opened the door and saw calm raindrops falling to the ground with soft dripping sounds, he opened up his umbrella and started walking, across the street where the store was at, Lumi stared at the umbrella in awe

"Oma I wike umbewwa! Wu want one! Pwease?"

Keith smiled as he gave the baby a kiss on the cheek
"Of course Lu! We'll get you one soon okay?"

"O'tay!"

When they made it into the store Keith grabbed a cart and put his umbrella in the baby seat, he kept his son in his arms and lumi seemed content just being in the presence of his mother as they walked around the store

As Keith stared at a bottle of garlic powder he failed to notice lumi sneaking in a few pocky sticks, he continued to look around until he heard a familiar voice

"..Keith..??"

Keith turned around and his eyes widened when he saw a mop of light brown hair and two scorning eyes looking back at his shocked violet ones, he felt hostility rise in his chest as he saw the boy who he punched all those years ago

"James..." he said curtly avoiding eye contact

The beta had on a gray turtleneck and black pants he had a Shopping cart on one hand as he looked at Lumi who seemed alarmed at the rise of hostility in the air, James grabbed the back of his head awkwardly and gave a small smile

"Long time no see"

"Yeah..." Keith muttered

Lumi looked at them back and forth, he grabbed onto Keith mullet making him flinch and look at him

"Oma hurts again?" He questioned quietly

"No I'm okay Lu" he whispered out softly making Lumi smile a bit

"So uhhh....you have a kid now? Who's the lucky guy?"

Keith looked back at James and shuffled uncomfortably in his feet "uh remember Lance?"

James's eyes widened at that and he gave a strained laugh

"Wait? The Tailor? Really? Wow who would've thought" he said almost drily

Keith nodded slowly in unease making James look down at his feet he gave a nervous cough as he looked back up at Keith

"I Uhhh came back into town cause I heard you were here....I remembered you as the quiet omega kid who'd sit in the back of the classroom, you were always alone...I made fun of you and I've been wanting to apologize or awhile....and I was thinking you'd be on your own again"
