Ooh okok how about keith, shiro, & lance getting into a really bad argument with their s/o that ends up with them crying and isolating themselves from the paladin? I live for angst with fluffy endings. Love your blog!
!!! Ahhhh ty ty!!!! also yo same angst is my jam. These would take place sometime while Keith was still the Black Paladin, but Shiro had returned.
He had gotten hurt on a mission with the Blade of Marmora. Again
For whatever reason he had decided the best course of action would be to try and hide it from you
Until you went to check to see if he was home, that is
You walked into his room only to find him with his shirt off and his shoulder and chest covered in blood and wounds
Immediately you were next to him, trying to get a better look at him, to see if he was okay, if it was even his blood
Keith jerked away from you so quickly that it left you speechless
“Keith, what’s going on?”
He didn’t want you to see him like this
Honestly, all he really wanted right now was a shower and to go to sleep
Instead of replying, he just tried to brush you off
“Why won’t you talk to me…?”
Coming from a place of concern or not, with the day he had it was enough to set him off, regardless of your intentions
He stood up abruptly, and what was said after that was something that he wouldn’t be proud of after the fact
He ranted and yelled at you, but refused to look you in the eye the entire time
Eventually, he turned to look at you
“Just stop trying to stick your nose into everything I do!”
He regretted it as soon as it came out of his mouth
As soon as he saw how hurt you looked and the tears in your eyes
You were out the door before he could finish
He didn’t go after you right away. Didn’t even try to talk to you for two days
He knew he screwed up bad this time, and you probably wouldn’t want to see him quite yet
But when he did try to talk to you, he noticed that you seemed to always slip away just when he found you
At first he thought it was just a coincidence
But then he realized you weren’t even showing up for meals, or to training, or really… anything
And it clicked that you were avoiding him
He gave you a few more days, hoping that more time would help
A full week and a half after the initial argument, he decided to go to your room directly
He wasn’t sure you would even open the door to him but he had to try
The second the door slid open he was apologizing
“Y/N, I’m so, so sorry. I was out of line and angry and I took it out on you and—”
You grabbed his hand out of nowhere and Keith melted
Pulling him over to sit down, you started ghosting your hand over where he had been wounded
“I was just worried, you know that, right?”
Lots of affection after all is said and done
He wants to make sure you know how much he regrets what he said
With the return of Shiro, Lance suddenly felt more self-conscious than ever
Would it be best for him to step down now? After all, Allura was doing great, and there was one extra Paladin now… Wouldn’t it make sense for him to start staying behind?
One day when the two of you were alone, he expressed this concern to you
If you were being honest, you understood where he was coming from. That didn’t mean you appreciated his attitude, however
“You’re just as talented as the others, Lance.”
He seemed unconvinced, and you went on
How talented he was, how he kept spirits up
How much you loved him and how proud of him you were
You thought that the little pep talk would help
In reality, he just felt worse and worse, convinced that none of it was true
“Just… Stop lying to me…”
Lance stood up and started pacing, suddenly feeling very restless
Of course you were lying, you had to be
He started going on and on about how you were wrong, getting more and more angry as he went
“Don’t lie to me just because you feel bad for me!”
You’re up in a moment and you begin leaving the room with tears in your eyes
He lets you go without a fight
The rest of the day he feels awful and guilty, though, and he notices that you’re going out of your way to avoid him
That night, he can’t sleep at all
Taking a walk is usually how he calms himself down, so he decides to do that
He ends up in front of your room without meaning to
Just stands in front of your door for a long, long time
He doesn’t even know what to say yet
After all, you were just trying to make him feel better
When he finally knocks you take a long time to open the door
To the point where he was about to leave because he thought you were asleep
You guys stare at each other for a long time, neither of you quite sure what to say
Lance sighs and looks at the ground
“Can… I come in? I just wanna talk.”
Suddenly the two of you are sitting on your bed, much farther apart then you usually would be
“I’m sorry. I know you were just trying to make me feel better, and… I don’t know, I was just scared, I guess.”
You grabbed his hand and sighed
He was damn lucky he was so cute
“Don’t ever say that me loving you is a lie.”
His face is super red but Lance can’t get this dumb grin off of his face
He brings your hand up and presses a kiss to your knuckles
He was already angry when you found him
The Black Lion had rejected him again, and he was more than a little frustrated
Of course he was happy that Keith had been accepted as the new leader but… It still hurt that he was suddenly ousted completely from his lion
So when you walked up behind him and gave him a surprise hug, he all but threw you off of him
“What are you doing here?”
His tone was so cold that it didn’t even sound like him
He turns to leave without even waiting for a response and you catch his arm before he gets the chance
“Shiro, are you alright? Did something happen…?”
“Do I look alright, Y/N?”
He was so accusatory that you hardly knew what to say, but the second you started talking he kept going with his ranting
Eventually he went from the topic of himself to the two of you
“What even are we? You act like we’re in love and—”
His heart sinks when he realizes what he’s said and that you’re crying and it’s completely his fault
Initially he lets you leave without saying anything, but after a moment…
Well, he just can’t let you think that what he said was how he actually feels
He follows you, catching up just as you shut the door to your room
He knocks. Then again. And again, all to no avail
“Y/N? Y/N, please, I’m so sorry… I shouldn’t have said that to you, it wasn’t true at all, and—”
He goes on until he can’t think of anything else to say, and yet you still don’t answer the door
He sighs and sits down, back against the door, because he honestly doesn’t know what else to do at this point
No, he didn’t want to go to bed on a note like this.
But if you didn’t want to talk, was there really much else he could do…?
Suddenly the door opens and he falls backwards into your room
You’re standing over him, your eyes still red and he can’t help but feel like this might have been an awful idea
Except then you hold out a hand to help him up and maybe, just maybe, things were going to be okay
The second that he’s back on his feet he’s in your face
“I love you. You know I love you, right?”
He’s so blunt that it makes you blush
“I didn’t mean any of it. I was an idiot, and you didn’t deserve all that…”
You slowly pull him into a hug and, though you’re still upset, you know that his apology is sincere
“Just… Talk to me next time instead of getting so worked up, okay?”
He nods and holds you a little closer
