The Escape

Last time:
"What are you doing back here?" I spat at him, the nerve of him to come back to tell me that he used me, played me. However what came out of his mouth was the last thing I expected to hear.
"Your Prince Charming has come to the rescue, Loverboy

Lance's PoV

Rescue? What the hell is he talking about? No, he betrayed me. He betrayed me! This can't be real. Jesus now I am hallucinating. Does that mean I am dying? No I am to beautiful I die and I haven t told Keith how I feel about him...Wait no bad lance we hate Keith remember! We don't want him to hug us in his strong gentle arms and hear his steady heart beat as I lay my head on his chest feeling calm and security flood over me. No definitely don't want that.
"What are you talking about?" Didn't he leave to be with Lotor. Why is he here?
"I am going to free you, dummy!" He replies like he was telling me something as obvious as the sky is blue. Why is the sky blue? It could be that blue light is scattered in all directions by the tiny molecules of air in Earth's atmosphere. But what would I know. 

"..nce, Lance...LANCE!!!" He whisper screams at me. Oh right I need to focus.
"Why?" Is he just doing this cause he is feeling guilty and thinks if he does this I can disappear when he can live with these bandits, with Lotor? Or does he actually care?
"Ok I know you are really confused and I will explain later but we need to leave now. The others will find out I betrayed them and I don't know about you but I don't wanna be here for Lotor's hissy fit." He unlocks my chains and helps me up. I stand on unsteady feet and start to fall towards Keith. God why do you have to do this to me? He pulls me to his chest stabling me. So here I am in his warm embrace trying to make my heart beat slow down from its rapid beating. I feel my face flush crimson so I quickly right myself avoiding eye contact with my saviour.
"Come on I know the way out. Stick close." With that we find our way out of the cave. Our belongings were just left by the mouth so we grab them and make our way out of the campsite. Hahah idiots! Just as we are about to leave the site border we run into Zethrid. Shit this is gonna get ugly. We stare all have a stand off, waiting for someone to make the first move. Keith seems to take that moment to hike up his dress to grab the dagger strapped to his outer thigh. I look away, because I am a gentleman, but not before I see his smooth, pale thigh. I mean come on I am a gentleman but I ain't dead. He is so dreamy, I mentally sigh. Common Lance, you really need to pick your moments. I ignore the blush I know is spreading down to my neck to see Keith charge at Zethrid. We are far away enough to not be heard by the other scandals. But as long no one screams we are gonna be fine...spoke to soon. Keith manages to stab Zethrid in her abdomen. Jeez that's gotta hurt. This causes her to release an all mighty roar no doubt alerting the others. 

Okay time to leave. With her distracted I hoist Keith over my shoulder and start running to a herd of horses in a make shift wooden pen. I open the gate and through Keith over the back of a white horse with a peculiar orange mane. Once Keith is settled I jump up and send a prayer of thanks to my mama for forcing me to take riding lessons as a young boy. It is lucky the horse still had it reins on, though no saddle. Oh well beggars can't be choosers. With nothing to lose we take off as we can with the shouts of Lotor quickly silenced by the wind gliding past our ears. Keith's arms are tightly wrapped around my waist, across my stomach. So I keep up the fast speed as long as I can. Yeah yeah I know cheap shot but who knows the next time we will have a moment like this. I see the sun through the forest rising in the east. The pub where Pidge works is to the east so I turn and set our course for her pub. I slow down til we are just walking now knowing Lotor won't be here and has lost our trail.

"I am sorry." Keith breaks the bubble of quiet with his voice. Sorry? For what? Then the whole past 24hours flood back and I understand what he is apologising for.
"Why did you leave ?" I ask trying to keep the deep sadness out of my voice.
"It was part of my plan. I would never hurt you on purpose Lance please know that," ok that brings a smile to my face but I am still confused. He carries on, "If I could get them to trust me and wait for them to fall asleep I could get the keys and free you. That was all that was on my mind. Saying that bad stuff about you killed me. I know this is stupid we have only know each other for a few days but that is how I feel."
He leaves it at that and I feel him hug me tighter which I know from the very short period of time we have spent together that it isn't what he normally does. After a heavy silence I reply.
"I forgive you and I feel the same. It is crazy but Keith, I am so glad I went your tower that night. I even think I may even lo.." I am cut off by a rustling in the bag Keith is holding. Cosmo comes crawling out of it. Smart guy he must of climbed in there when we were captured. (An~ Totally did not forget him!) Keith happily welcomes back his pet breaking the heavy atmosphere. God did I almost confess. Damn I am in deep.

Lotor's PoV:
"YOU LOST HIM?!" Zarkon shouts through the phone. RIP my eardrums! "YOU BETTER FIND HIM OR ELSE!"
He hangs up and I return to my group looking at a injured pissed off Zethrid. How could she let them escape. I knew Lance was a slippery one I mean he learnt from the best. I am going to have to permanently remove him from Keith's life. Speaking of him I need to find Keith before he finds out who he really is otherwise I can say bye bye to my head.
