AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH MY HEART. ITS TOO GOOD FOR THIS WORLDDDDDDD

Writing Keith letters is more difficult than originally expected, I feel as lost as Keith when I write them. Hope you like how it turned out!

Quick note: Keith did not get to read Lance first letter from the special chapter

(<-Previous) (First) (Special: The First Letter)

Keith sighs, re-reading the sentence he just wrote.

I think I understood something during dinner.

It isn’t a lie in the least, he did realize something, he just isn’t sure how to… phrase it? Everything is still just so confusing to him, but he keeps writing, trying to figure out his feelings as he goes.

I think I like you, Lance.

There, he wrote it. He can’t bring himself to write the word love, it feels too… real and definitive. And he is still too unsure about many things.

I don’t know if this is the same type of like that you wrote on all those letters. I know I like what’s written in them. I don’t know if that sounds weird, sorry. But I felt like I related with the letters during dinner. I was happy.  When you were telling me about your day, it was fun. I imagined if you told me about your day everyday. It would be nice. Because I feel at ease when you talk. Like the one mission where you kept speaking to me after I got injured, I even forgot the pain for a while after that awful pun you made. But I also know that when I think you’re avoiding me, or going to leave me like …

Keith isn’t able to finish the sentence.

It hurts. That’s why sometimes I feel the need to push myself away from you, before I get too attached. I guess I never told you that was part of why I joined Blade of Marmora. I’m sorry. In the end, I might have even liked you before all this, but I still don’t know if this is the right… feeling? I don’t want to hurt you. I don’t know much about love, all I thought about before was survival, even on Earth. Maybe you don’t even like me anymore. Maybe if I tell you how I feel, if you read this letter, you won’t like me anymore.

Keith bites his lip, he feels like his chest hurts at the idea of Lance not liking him anymore. He gets frustrated, as he feels like he might start crying but he refuses to let the tears come. Instead he focuses on finishing the letter, though he doesn’t have any intentions of delivering it anymore. Keith imagined this is how Lance felt when he wrote all the other letters.

Can you help me understand? Keith

With the excitement and happiness Lance got from reading Keith’s first reply, he couldn’t help himself by starting with the love letter. He knew if he replied to the letter first it would most likely end up way too cheesy and he wants the whole pen pal deal to be casual and without problems.

Keith!!!! (Also quick reminder to self to never give Keith this letter or he will think you’re a weird, if he doesn’t already) Did you know that I love you!!! Like I mean, of course you do after all those letters you read, well actually I have no idea how much you read, but still you probably know. But god damn it, you manage to make me fall in love with you in different ways basically every day. (Quick thank you to past Lance who decided to start this pen pal thing, you are the best) And now back to, how-dare-you-being-such-a-KEITH, like in the span of 24 hours you were just !!! I have no words actually, and I might be a little tired to make any sense, but look: You were super badass and cool this morning, and then when you’re making jokes it’s like, wow, you are a dork, and I love that. And I have said this thousands times before but when you laugh it’s just, I am so happy to see you at ease, because it always feels like you have just this giant weight on your shoulders all the time, like you’e always afraid of something, and I get that. I am scared myself all the time. But you deserve to be laughing all the time. And god damn ok just quick note, you’re also cute. I don’t mean this as a bad thing at all, it’s just. I don’t know how to explain but when I went to wake you up? I felt like I was going to die. Your letter where you are super conscious of every word (once again not a bad thing)? I-was-dying-as-well. Anyway, long story short, the usual: I love you. Every side of you. Lance
