"Keith...?"

Lance couldn't believe his eyes. His childhood friend who disappeared just showed up again out of the blue? No way. How? Lance felt his chest tighten with thousands of emotions at once.

[FLASHBACK]
Lance and Keith were playing in the garden of the kingdom. They were having a small pretend picnic making mudpies and getting all dirty on their clothes. Suddenly the mudpie was smashed by a tiny caramel hand.
"OH NO 'FA(A/N Their speaking was slightly impaired when they were younger, so lance has a hard time saying words that start or end with "th" and keith has a hard time with words that start with "L")EVIL LORD IS ATTACKING! WILL GALACTICAL SPACE PRINCE LANCE AND HIS- uh.. what are you?" Lance turned to his best friend who was amused by Lance's imagination. "Uh well, I'm keith and I'm a boy...and I'm your friend?" Lance poked his muddy finger to his chin to think of what to call his friend in this imagination game.

"Oh I got it! AND HIS BESTESTEST BOYFRIEND KEEF DEFEAT THIS MADMAN? LETS FIND OUT! WOOSH!!!" Lance grabbed Keith's hand and ran across the vast garden. "Wance my name is Keith not Keef!" Lance responded. "And my names not Wance its Lance." Lance turned and blew a raspberry at his friend. Keith blushed and twisted out of Lance's grip. They both stopped running already out of breath because of their small legs. "I told you to not do that! You know that's embarrassing for me!" Keith breathed out.

Galra did gestures to show signals that communicated certain things. Like how some Galra had tails, they would flip it back and forth to show how they were annoyed. Or flatten their ears to show embarrassment or anger. In this case the showing of their tongues didn't mean a taunt but a sign of vulnerability by exposing an inner organ. So sticking out their tongues was a small communication for <I love you> or <I trust you> of course, keith only knew one of them because his mother has done it for him a lot...

"What does it even mean Keef?-" "Keith." "Whatever! You won't even tell me so why does it matter? It's just playing around for me!" Lance shrugged and did it to Keith again. Keith blushed even more and his tail was flapping and his ears were flattened. "IM GONNA KILL YOU!" Keith bolted to Lance and Lance ran for his life while laughing. (A/N Haha I'm in danger-) They ran all the way across and Keith started to slow down. Lance turned towards him but he was still running backwards. "What's wrong Keef? Can't keep up?!-" "Wance! Wook out!!!" Lance lost his footing. They didn't realize that there was a cliff near the end of the large garden since they never usually went this far.

Lance fell. Off the edge.

Then he felt a strong grip that was also painful. He looked up from the drop. Keith was gripping onto him, his eyes were slit and his claws were being buried into his softer flesh. Keith tugged him back up and he grabbed the neck of Lance's clothes with his teeth and pulled him up the rest of the way on all fours. Lance fell on his back as Keith let go and fell on his stomach gasping for air. There was complete silence but the sound of the garden grass blowing in the wind and Keith's tail swishing faster and faster against his clothes. He was pissed off. He quickly popped his head up towards Lance and grabbed his shoulder to turn him around.

"WANCE YOU DUMBY! YOU COULDVE DI-" Keith was cut off by Lance's horrified expression. "Wance are you okay...?" Keith cooled his temper and Lance's eyes started to fill with tears and he hugged his friend tightly, his adrenaline pumping too much to realize his bleeding arm from Keith's really sharp claws. "I'm sorry K-Keef...I wasn't careful. You saved m-me..." Keith returned the hug, blushed, and sighed. "Whatever. You're fine now so dont be sad wike that. I'm not used to you being a crybaby-" Lance pushed himself from Keith. "HEY IM NOT A CRYBABY! YOU ARE!"

Little Lance then pounced on Keith and started tickling him. Keith gasped and started laughing uncontrollably, trying to push his friend away to get out of the tickle attack. "W-Wance s-stop it! Pff-" Keith giggled while swishing his tail happily. "Never!!! You shall suffer for your betrayal Boyfriend Keef!!" Lance laughed as he tickled little Keith. Then everything went black.

Lance snapped out of his memory. Back to the present. Keith greeted his father already and Lance was about to have a major panic attack. He was already feeling like crap but then he realized how awkward it would be to meet again like this, after Keith just kinda poofed.

Lance remembered the last few times they saw each other before Keith vanished. He never came back for a playdate but he was still able to communicate. Of course the only times they would be able to is when Zarkon and Alfor were still in a negotiation mood. Keith and Lance were required to see what negotiating was like so they were able to see each other through the screen but weren't able to speak. Everytime they made eye contact, Lance would wave happily at his friend and Keith would wave back with a smile. But each time they went back to the communication room Keith became less and less enthusiastic with the smile and wave. Soon when they turned about 10 or 11 years old Keith didn't wave or smile at Lance anymore...

Keith started to stand like a mini soldier, no emotion on his face and hands behind his back with his chest slightly puffed out. Lance noticed that Keith would wear out a bit from standing like that and then his father would tap him lightly to get him back in his position. Keith now wouldn't look at Lance as much and would only pay a lot of attention to the grown-ups actual conversation. Lance would still wave at Keith but now all Keith did was look at Lance for a small second and twitch his ears and tail as a sign of a greeting. And sometimes, ONLY SOMETIMES, Keith would give Lance a tiny nod but he never smiled again...then one day he just stopped monitoring the communication completely, never to be seem again. Until now that is.
