Lance opened his eyes to a dimly lit room. His mind was blank, and he couldn't feel his arm.

What happened..? Lance thought, looking around, then memories flooded his mind, oh yeah.. I was getting my arm fixed up because my dad hit me- my dad. My dad..He killed my mom.. Lance felt himself tremble, his hands clenched the bed to try and stop himself from shaking.

Wait. Keith was here with me. Where is he. Where's Keith. Lance thought in a panic. His thoughts kept running back to his mom, then to his dad.

"Keith" Lance choked out, closing his eyes tightly, "Keith. Keith are you here?" He asked, and a tired Keith walked over to him.

"Lance, you're awake. Are you okay?" Keith asked, kneeling down and resting his head in his hand, his arm resting on the bed beside Lance.

Lance looked at Keith, "Keith. My dad killed my mom. He did it. He crashed into her car on purpose" Lance gulped back a sob, tears running down his face like a river. Keith frowned and hugged lance, sitting him up to get to him easier.

"I'm so sorry Lance.. your mom was very special to you.." Keith held Lance close, slightly cherishing the moment of being near him. Lance had his head on Keith's chest, crying.

"Keith. Why..why did he do it.." Lance took a deep breath, laying back down on the bed. Keith got into the bed and laid down next to him, sympathy in his eyes, "Lance, I don't know. Your dad is crazy"

"....What am I gonna do now..? I have no where to go.. no where to stay..." Lance sighed. Keith thought for a moment, then held his hand out to him, "You.. You can live with me"

Lance paused and looked at him, "Live with you..?" He asked, a small smile appearing on his face, as well as a blush. "I.. I'd like that"

"Great" Keith smiled and hugged lance gently, happily thanking god in his mind. He let go and smiled, "Im glad you are at least okay" Keith sighed.

Lance nodded, chuckling. On the outside, yes. On the inside, I won't ever be the same. He thought.

Lance looked down at his phone and read a text, gulping, as he walked with Shiro, Keith, and the others to Shiro's car.

Dad: How dare you leave me like that! Your an arrogant bitch who should never have been born! When you get home, I'll show you what true pain is! You'll get more than just a bottle to your arm! You won't EVER go to the hospital, or leave, without MY permission! Come straight home!

Lance paused in slight fear as something crossed his mind. Something that hadn't crossed his mind in a long time. He didn't dare tell Keith. He didn't dare tell any of the group as he got in the car, but he couldn't stop himself as he took Keith's hand and squeezed it tightly once everyone had gotten in and settled.

Keith looked at lance, then firmed his grip on Lance's hand, "Hey, it's okay. I know it's hard, but things will get better. When your at my house, I'll make sure things go okay for you" Keith tried to comfort him.

"Sounds like an excuse to sleep together" Pidge pushed up her glasses with a smirk, and lance and Keith blushed.

"What the hell pidge! No way!" Keith said, and lance covered his face, no way! Definitely not! Nope! Lance had totally forgotten about the text. That is, until Lance and Keith were walking towards Keith's home..
