Night passed while Lance slept well in Keith's arms the whole night. The next morning Keith received a voice message from Lotor asking if the two could could meet up somewhere and 'talk'. Unfortunately, it woke up Lance and he was getting pissed off at Keith's ex blowing up his phone. Taking Keith's cell, Lance was going to turn it off until he saw the pictures that Lotor was sending. ..Dead Bodies? What the fuck is this?? Reading some of the messages made Lance blood run cold.
-I been following you lately-
-People are getting suspicious over Vampire attacks and it's becoming a problem-
-I'm fucking tired of cleaning up after you, Keith.-
-Each time you killed, You need to BURN it or make it look like a suicide.-
-Call me when ur free.-
Keith shifted and rubbed his eyes waking up, "Mmm.. Lance?" He sat up slowly looking around, "You alright?" The rooms atmosphere had gone cold and dense which worried Keith, "Y-Yes.. I'm fine, Keith." It was NO WAY those 'Dead Bodies' were Keith's fault! His ex boyfriend was abusive and probably crazy in the head too! Keith wasn't a killer! Keith chuckled a little and gently kissed Lances cheek, "Can I have my phone back then? If you were trying to see if I show up in pictures the answer is yes, I am half human y'know~" Lance blushed and smiled at that. He put the phone down and turned towards Keith. "I was just checking the time. It's still early.." Lance begin to crawl back to Keith in bed and looping his arms around Keith's neck. "We have plenty of time to do... other things." He blushed a little then smirked getting an idea, "There is.. One~ thing I'd love to do" He pinned Lance down and lifted his shirt up, but before Lance could say anything he pressed his lips to his stomach and blew a raspberry hoping Lance was ticklish or at least had a sense of humor-
Whoa, Keith sure took charged of the situation quickly by pinning him down.. Feeling the other males lips on him, Lance couldn't help but to laugh out loud once he felt Keith tickling him. "K-Keith---Hahah, NO FAIR! Ahaha- Y-You fight dirty!!" He continued to laugh as he try his best to get Keith off of him. Keith laughed and stopped after a bit sitting up over Lance with a wide smile. "Hahaha.. Sorry but that was too funny- You're face was priceless! I wish I had it on camera or something.." It was nice to really be like this with someone who wasn't a crazy stalker. Lance couldn't believe Keith was still single. He liked it when someone could make him laugh and could joke around with him time to time. "I'm going to get you back, You better watch it." Lance replied, poking Keith's side. He rolled his eyes and chuckled getting up and getting his phone. After looking at the time he noticed new messages from Lotor. He took a few deep breaths and calmed himself down before it would get too bad. "Lance.. Did... Did you read these?" He didn't care really he just wanted to explain before he got the wrong idea"Hm? I-I may saw a few messages.. Sorry... Although, your ex seems to have the wrong idea about you." Keith nodded a little, "It's ok Lance, if I want to be with you I need to be open with everything, and I have nothing to hide from you. You know what I am." He sat back on the bed, "But I need to tell you something and you probably won't like it.. You may even hate me after..." Laying down, Lance rest his head on Keith's chest. He knew what Keith was and what he wasn't. "Vampires suck blood from humans necks to get there fill. I've seen it in movies. Those horrible pictures of the dead bodies I know it wasn't you doing. Your Ex is just trying to start up shit with you for no reason." He played with Lances hair, "Not everything in movies is right, but.. I have taken lives. I'm not proud of it though, and sometimes I stay awake for days on end because I can't stop thinking about the horrible things I've done. And I can't stop myself- I've tried and tried to push that part of myself back but I can't it only makes it worse..." He let out a shaky breath, he didn't want Lance to hate him. "Over time I've cut down a lot, and learned how to control it for the most part. But it's painful, it's like I'm staving myself.. Forcing myself to stay away from whats natural.. Using every part of myself to hold back. Most of those pictures were old, he's been saving up to try and make me feel guilty.. And it's working"
Lance eyes widen at the confession.. It was, hard to hear that from Keith. Hard to hear that he had taken lives. Keith was different now though and Lance knew that he really felt guilty and Lance wanted to be there for Keith and help him get past this. "That's rough buddy. But I know your not like that anymore, Keith." He kissed Keith's cheek and wrapped his arms around him. "What do you eat now? When your hungry?" Keith relaxed a little, having Lance not hate him was such a relief. "Well.. Human type food doesn't really hurt me as much as it used to, I'm getting more used to it though it still tastes weird. But animal blood is a good substitute, like when you buy uncooked meat the juice isn't too bad. It's not the same but I'd do anything to keep myself from hurting people." Lance understood and appreciated Keith's honesty "That's good to know... I would love to cook for you the next time your over my place~ Im sure I can find a way to make something you'd like."
"I'd love that Lance" He nuzzled Lance a little feeling so relieved that he could be honest with him. "I'm glad you aren't freaked out.. And if there's anything else you want to know about me or something just ask. There isn't much that you don't know but still"
"Wellll.... When are you taking me on our next date?" Lance ask, closing his eyes and enjoying being nuzzled by Keith. Keith thought a second. "Well.. If you want you could come see my house this weekend? I have lots of old movies and a pretty nice keyboard"
"Oh, you play the key bored? Interesting~" Lance smiled, rubbing Keith's chess a bit. "I would love to go to your house. Do you have any gaming systems?" Keith nodded a bit in response. "Yeah, Piano was always something I liked. And I do have an old system, I don't really use it but it works fine"
"Oh? Like PlayStation 1 or Something? I'm a pretty good gamer... Well, not as good as my friend Hunk but still..." Looking at the time, Lance wanted to get something to eat before going to the Museum. "I'm going to take a quick shower Before we go." He nodded, "The hotel has breakfast so Im gonna go down and see if they have tea, do you want anything?"
"Anything you decide to get me should be fine, Keith" Gathering his clothes, Lance went to the beathroom. Keith snuck up and kissed Lance's cheek before heading to the door, "I'll be back soon" After that he left heading downstairs. Taking a shower, Lance wondered if he should.. 'Surprise' Keith. Stealing one of Keith's shirts. Lance got in the shower, washing up quickly he soon got on the bed waiting for Keith to get back, wearing only Keith's shirt and briefs.
Keith came back up a few minutes later with a plate for Lance and a cup of tea for him. He didn't know what Lance would like so he just guessed. When he came in he set the items down on the table and looked over at the bed, "Hey, I di-" He quickly noticed his shirt on Lance and couldn't help but blush "Keith! Your back so soon!!" Getting up from the bed, Lance went over to the table. He rubbed his neck a little. "Yeah they didn't have much, and there were a lot of people.. I wasn't sure what you'd like- But if you want something else I can go back." He bit his lip a little and took a drink, Lance looked really cute in his shirt.. "Ohhh, Really?" Lance checked out what Keith bought up. He moved slow and swayed his hips a bit, He wasn't ashamed wearing nothing but an shirt and underwear in front of Keith. "M-Mhm" He went up and hugged Keith from behind wrapping his arms around his waist. "I see you decided to steal my shirt~ Just hope you know I fully plan on taking it back sometime, but I'll let it slide for now since you look cute"
Blushing at the contact, Keith leaned back into his touch... Lance was hoping to hear the word 'Sexy' but it was still sweet to hear the complement. "Thanks. You don't look too bad youself~" He replied, winking at Keith who couldn't help but chuckl a bit. Though Lance looked hot he wanted to be respectful, he thought if he shouldn't be too forward or sexual since they just started dating and Lan e had a bit of an unpleasant past with sexual things. He kissed Lance's cheek, "How much time before the museum?"
"We have a little more then an hour before it's time to leave." Grabbing the tray that Keith bought up, Lance leaned in and kissed Keith's neck. "Lets eat together before we go ok?" Keith nodded and sat next to Lance. He took another sip of his tea and smiled a little, "Y'know, I've always wondered if vampires could drink regular stuff the way they drink blood.."
"Maybe they could if they train themselves long enough..." Taking the yogurt out of the bag, Lance pulled back the cover on it and spoke "I guess it all depends on the persons will-power to change." Keith nodded, "I guess so.. But I mean, when we feed though our fangs like straws so the blood doesn't mix with anything else and cause disease like HIV or some other blood-born illnesses" Lance found that to be very interesting... He wondered if Vampires have any other special abilities or if they could die like humans do. "Vampires lives longer then humans do, right? What if you get sick? Like HIV, or cancer, Does it really shorten your life compared to mine?" The male shrugged, "I've never really looked into it.. I guess it would? Any 'powers' we have don't help or effect sicknesses unless your really special. But if I ever meet a vampire with cancer I'll let you know" Lance let out a chuckle as he scooped some yogurt on the spoon and brought to Keith's lips. "What kind of powers do you have?" Keith blushed a little and quickly ate the small spoonful Lance had put to his face. Not too bad, though he wouldn't pick it for himself. "I have a few neat tricks.. Like reading minds, I'd have to really, really focus though since I'm terrible at it heheh, but I can also do this invisible thing- Its great for pranks that I have yet to try on Shiro"
"Y-You could turn invisible? NO WAY!" Lance couldn't believe that Keith's had so little to no friends. Why? He was so amazing and interesting! "Can you read my mind right now if you really wanted too?" He nodded a little, "Yeah, but never works for too long. I could force it but its super draining to do that. I've been working on floating and flying too."
"I would love to see that one of these days!" Lance replied, finishing the yogurt that Keith bought up
"Your definitely the coolest person that I ever met, Keith!" Keith blushed and smiled, "Thanks.. You too Lance" He finished his drink throwing the cup away then checking the time. "So um.. Wanna like, kiss or something? Since there's time left" He wasn't good with words or romance.. Laughing at that comment, Lance walked over and sat on Keith's lap as he wrapped his arms around Keith's neck, finding it kind of adorable that Keith was so awkward at this. "I have an even better idea.. In the Museum lets skip out on half of it~" Leaning in, Lance traced his fingers on Keith's chest as he wispier in Keith's ear, his voice low and sexy. "We can find a nice dark corner~ And well, who knows~" He held Lances waist and blushed darkly at his words. When he thought of him and Lance doing it he became so flustered that he turned invisible- He didn't even mean to.. Keith wasn't a virgin but he had never done it with anyone but Lotor. "WHOA! Um..." Did Keith just turn invisible!? For some odd reason Lance didn't think being invisible meant a person wouldn't be able to feel anything, so he started to poke him. "Oh, my gosh! This is so cool!" He said , continuing to poke Keith. "What? Why are you poking me-?" He looked at his arms and sighed loudly, "Shoot- Gimme a sec.." Within a minute or so Keith was back to being visible. "I wish there was an on and off switch to it.. Sometimes when I get really scared or flustered it just.. Happens" Lance thought it was really cool, though Keith was pretty embarrassed.. Lance noticed that he was a bit red... Poor guy. He wondered if he ever turned invisible in class or in public before. Looking at the time, he signed. It was time to go downstairs and go on the bus. "We need to leave... What a bummer" Putting his pants on, Lance started to gather his things before the two left. Keith made sure he was all dressed and had his bag before leaving with Lance.
Keith gave Lance a quick kiss on the cheek before going ahead to make sure they had a seat. People knew not to sit next to him which was maybe the only perk of being an outcast. Sitting next to Keith on the bus, Lance held on to Keith's hand... It was so sweet and he really enjoyed whenever Keith kissed him. The two talked for awhile till the bus arrived at the destination. He held Lance's hand tightly and he looked out the window. He hummed quietly to himself tapping his foot to the beat in his head. Just having Lance there lifted his mood, it was nice.. Sitting next to Keith on the bus, Lance held on to Keith's hand. Visiting the museum was kinda boring and he wasn't really too interested in seeing anything there.. "What are you going to do when we get back home?" He shrugged, "Probably tell Shiro about Lotor and drink till I pass out.." Keith spoke casually about it though inside he was scared, he hated the idea of Lotor.. He didn't really know what to do. " I understand. Hopefully, Lotor won't cause too much trouble for you." Lance replied, following the group as they made their way towards an different part of the museum. Lance tried his best to keep up with everything with the instructor was saying, after a short while Lance excused himself and went to the restroom. It was super hard for him not to die from boredom. While Lance was gone Keith had gotten another text from his ex...
