Summary
With a burst of steam, the pod disengaged. Keith wobbled out, falling to his knees, gasping for air. The air felt too thin, too sharp, too real. His side throbbed with a dull ache and he found himself reaching for it. He could feel again.
“Keith!”
He looked up, it was Allura calling him.
“Goodness Keith! You’re finally awake!” She reached for him, helping him stand on his shaky legs, “I must call the others. Come, sit.”
And he remembered.
“Lance…” his voice rasped out in the quiet med bay.
The memories weren’t whole. Not yet. But he knew one thing.
Lance had stayed, Lance had helped him, Lance had been hurt.
“Allura, where's Lance?”
---
After a mission gone wrong, Keith is left injured and spends days in a pod. Lance has convinced himself that it is his fault and that there was more he could've done to prevent this. When Keith awakens, he only remembers fragments from the incident and over time, the full memory slowly comes back to him. Lance keeps his distance.
