Chapter Text
Lance was slowly dunked into the warm water, the bathtub filled with bubbles and a few rubber ducks (fun fact I own 70 rubber ducks), he batted at one of the ducks, the one with a fireman hat and hose. he pushed it around the water as Keith gently watched his hair, lance splashed Keith with the water, "Ah, ah! Daddy is not the one who's having a bath, I'd like to stay dry baby."
Lance hid his smile and pointed to the duck, trying to show Keith that the duck had down it, "Oh, Mr ducky did it?" He gave a questioning look. Lance nodded profusely. "Well if Mr ducky splashes daddy again he'll have to go to the corner."
"Da!" lance pointed at Keith, he smiled. "Can you say dada?" Lance once again pointed saying 'da', "Only small words today I guess?" Lance stared at him.
Keith rapped lance in the soft towel with a shark hood, 'Ra!' he repeated at the older. Keith put him in a diaper before looking in the draws for some close, when he turned around lance was gone! "Lance!" he looked around the room but couldn't see him.
"Lance get out of my room!" Pidge grumbled, she was working on new code and couldn't risk getting distracted and making mistakes! Lance whined and hide in his shark hood if pidge didn't want to play then uncle Shiro would! He stumbled out of the room, heading to Shiro's room, he opened the door and curled to the bed with Shiro in it.
He stuck his arms out wanting Shiro to pick him up, Shiro looked down at him confused why was Lance in only a shark towel and diaper? and why was he in his room? he pulled him on to the bed anyway, "Hey little man, where's Keith?"
Lance shrugged "Da!" Lance looked around as if Keith would appear, after seeing no sign of him he covered his eyes and shook his head "No da!"
Shiro hummed, he -should- go find Keith and tell him Lance is okay but Little lance was cute and he'd yet to have much bonding with the kid! "Wanna stay with Uncle Shiro?" he gave a guilty smile, Lance nodded and hugged the older man.
Keith knocked on the closest door, pidge's "What do you want now lance?" the door opened revelling Keith, "Oh, hi Keith, Why are you here?"
"I Kinda lost Lance, have you seen him?"
"He wanted to play but I was working, he left." she shrugged "He didn't say where he was going."
Keith huffed "Thank you, I have to go find him." he closed the door before checking the next room.
Lance sat in Shiro's lap, He'd figured out Lance liked true. Lance pointed every now and again to say 'tu' or 'meow' or even 'bar!'
they heard a knocked at the door, it opened "Lance! Please don't run off like that!" he sighed in relief, "Thank you for looking after him-" He went to pick him up but Shiro held onto him.
"I haven't really spent much time with Lance while he's little, he's sweet. I know I was kind of mean but please let me look after lance?"
"You ever kind of mean but you can look after Lance if I can stay too." Shiro nodded, moving over so the bed had enough space for all of them.
