Pidge & Lance & Hunk

Pidge sneezed and within made a very high tone. She robbed her nose and looked at Hunk and Keith who were also in her lab.

"This sound reminds me of a kitty.", commented Hunk with a nostalgic chuckle .

The green paladin gave him an annoyed look, then Keith added with a warm smile: "I have to agree on that though. It was pretty cute."

"You guys are impossible.", mumbled Pidge and went back to work without looking at them.

Hunk whispered to his friend: "I never expect you to mock her like that?" Keith looked at him confused and then answered with a straight look into his eyes: "I would never joke about something like that." Then he looked away and doubted: "Did it seem like I was joking?" "Yeah, no. I mean your words were kind sure, but hearing them from you is just...unfamiliar." Keith nodded slightly.

The yellow paladin then returned to work on the computer. Keith was for no specific reason in the lab, he just stepped by after his work out.

He was about to leave then but a glance on Pidge made him stay. He sat next to her on the floor. Keith was sure she noticed but she didn't turn around to face him. She tried grabbing a tool without her reach. He took it and placed it in her hand wheron she looked at him. "I am really sorry if what I said before hurt you." "It's alright." "No, it wasn't even mean to be a joke. I really meant it. Sorry, I am bad at giving compliments." Keith could swear that he noticed a slight blush on her cheeks, so he decided to lighten the mood: "I mean, it is so obvious that you could never be a cat, considering you are a bird." "I am a paladin." "No, no..I meant..."

"I am just kidding." Pidge laughed and nudged him into his arm, "But seriously you deserved it." "So is the Pidgeon Pilot afraid in the muzzle of such a huge lion?" "Don't push it too much!" "I am not allowed to joke with you now?", asked Keith and laid his hand offened on his chest. But you couldn't hold the act long and chuckled, "I get it. No more puns."

"How generous." "But why is your name Pidge anyway? Did your parents have an obsession with Pidgeons?"

The green paladin laughted and shook her head slowly. "Ok first off, remember my real name is not Pidge. Matt gave me that nickname and he is just a dumbass." "But now you like it?" "Well it obviously does leave more room for puns, but yeah."

"What was your former name?" Pidge hesitated for a few secounds and eyed him closely then she told him: "My name is Katie. Katie Holt."

"I think I heard of you once." "WHAT?"

Hunk looked over to them and asked: "Everything alright? What are you talking about?" "We will see.", mumbled Pidge and turned to Keith, "Tell me. And who told you?"

"Come on, Shiro of course. I mean, I barely spoke to anyone else and he was the only person we both knew." "Fair point." "I think he maybe tried to set us up to meet or whatever. He mentioned that his Commander had a daughter about my age who wanted to explore space as well. I had more experience with piloting and you were ambitious, to be honest I think he meant like I dropped out of school and you skipped at least one year."

"But you didn't want to meet up?" "No, but if the events turned out differently and Caberos never failed we would. I bet."

"Kind of weird.", chuckled Pidge.

"Guys, what are you talking about? Come on don't let me hanging here like this!", begged Hunk and sat down beside them.

"We just discovered that we two would have met even when Caberos had gone well." "Wow that is so cool. Do you think we would have met as well?", wanted Hunk to know excitedly. "We were in the same class, so yes.", smiled Keith. "I never heard your name before I came to Garrison and read that you would the engineer of my team." "I never heard of Pidge Gunderson beforehand too." "Yeah because I invented it at that time. Ever heard about Katie Holt?" "I heard about your father because who didn't."

"But I am glad we did met at the end.", concluded Hunk with a smile. "Yeah me too."
