"I can't believe Shiro would have us do a mission together." Keith huffed.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm so awful. Now can we focus." Lance said leaning his head on one hand.

Keith flew the small Galra pod to the mothership. They were just there to see what information they could find but Shiro has paired the two boys who were so called 'rivals'. In reality neither could focus in each other's presence, they were too lovestruck.

They snuck out undetected. Lance led the way down the hall and when he heard a Galra soldier he quickly took a sharp turn snatching Keith pulling him with. They quietly stood pressed against the wall behind a pillar.

They watched him pass and they let out a breath of relief. Keith and Lance began to walk down the hall once more when alarms sounded. "They know we're here." Keith said.

Lance knew it was a bad moment but man did Keith look good. A flood of footsteps pounded through the hallways around them. "Keith over here." Lance pulled him into a room shutting the door. "They'll raid the room eventually."

"We need a plan." Keith said looking around for anything to use.

Lance bit his lip nervously. "Okay, I'm going to go out there and shoot as many of them as I can and cause a big seen. I'll run down the hallway on the left and you can run down the right when it's clear."

"What?! No!" Keith looked at him as if he were insane.

"Yes. If I need you I'll give you a signal." Lance assured.

"What signal?" Keith asked.

"I'll imitate the scream of a terrified little girl." Lance joked.

Keith smiled, Lance was unbelievable. "You're not funny."

"Your smile says otherwise." Lance smirked walking to the door.

Keith grabbed him before he could open it. "What makes you think I'd ever let you do that?" Keith said sternly.

"Who said you'd ever let me?" Lance smiled. "It'll be fine." He assured leaning forward kissing Keith.

The shorter boy was taken by surprise but of course kissed back, his hands snaking their way into Lances chocolate brown hair.

They parted slowly and Keith's eyes were still closed. He felt Lance leave his hands and his eyes snapped open in time to see the door shutting Lance already taking off down the hall.

"That little-!" He quickly reopened the door running after him. Lance was not doing this alone.

Lance shot down the hallway hitting several soldiers. They fell in broken messes as others turned to see the perpetrator. They chased Lance and he took them off one by one, but there were too many.

He was nearly slashed to bits by a sword and he closed his eyes accepting his fate. Metal on metal rung in his ear and he opened them just in time to see Keith cut the head off the robot. "Keith?"

"What were you thinking?!" He spun around fury spilling out.

"I was thinking you'd get out of here alive." Lance challenged.

"Not happening, both of us are getting out of here." Keith snatched his hand dragging him down the hall to find an exit.

Lance couldn't help but get stuck in a daze as he watched Keith pull him along. He was snapped back into reality when Keith began to take in another group of Galra. Lance already shot down six by the time Keith took down two.

Keith smiled back at Lance and he couldn't help but stare admiring it. They snuck back to the ship and left blending in with other fighting droids.

They escaped without harm together. Lance watched Keith as he flew them through the dark void. Lance leaned in and kissed his cheek. "Thanks for saving me."

Keith stared ahead trying to concentrate on not crashing but was finding it difficult. His face was red with embarrassment. "Um, it was, it was um- nothing." He squeaked.

The paladins were all confused by the new atmosphere between the two boys. After a few days, they weren't surprised when the two told them they were dating.
