Work Text:
Here I am there you are
“Keith is so hot. There’s no way he would go for me.”
Why does it seem so far
“I saw him eyeballing Lotor one time. Maybe he likes the pretty type,” Hunk said. “Are you saying i’m not pretty?” I questioned. “You’re very pretty Lance. I’m just saying,” Hunk replied.
Next to you is where I should be
I wore my best blue suit and walked up to Keith. I leaned against the lockers and gave him my best smolder look. He just walks past me without acknowledging me.
Where I wanna be
Pidge said, “Okay. Maybe pretty isn’t his type. He was sited with Rolo. Maybe he’s into edgy guys.” “I can do edgy.”
Something I want so bad
Next day I show up in a grudgy tank shirt and ripped jeans. “Sup Kogane? What goes on?” He raised an eyebrow and walked away.
Know what’s inside your head
“Edgy didn’t work either!” Allura told me, “He looks up to Shiro a lot. Maybe he’s into jocks.”
Maybe I can see what you see
I sport a blue jersey. And I get the same acknowledgement which is none.
Tell me what you see
I even tried the macho loverboy tactic. “ Hola señor. Podría decir que hoy te ves muy caliente.” I fired the signature finger guns. No man or woman could resist the finger guns.
I gotta keep on believin
He look me up and down and smirks at me. “Inténtalo de nuevo Loverboy.” He walks away yet again.
That everything takes time
“Argh! Nothing is working! Maybe he’s just not into me.”
I’ll make up any reason
“Pretty didn’t work. Edgy bombed. Jock was an epic fail. Even macho tanked!”
To make you mine
“Lance calm down. Keith does like you,” Shay assured me.
If you stayin or leavin
“He has a funny way of showing it.”
I’ll follow your lead
“Have you tried being yourself?” Shay asked.
So why keep pretending
“Be myself?”
Open your eyes
“Just be straight with him, Lance,” Matt chimed in.
I can be what you need
“But I can’t do straight. Only bi.”
Any kind of guy you want boy
“I walked right into that one didn’t I?”Matt laughed.
That’s the guy i’ll be
I saw Keith at his locker again. Just be myself. Just be myself.
Turn myself upside down
“Hey Keith.”
Yes i will yes i will
“Hey Lance. Nice look. Who are you today?”
you know i’ll agree
“Myself.”
Turn your whole world around
“I like it.”
Any kind any kind
“Wait, you do? Then why were you blowing me off at each attempt?”
Any kind of guy you want
“Cuz those weren’t the real you.”
You decide change your mind
“So if I would have just been myself from the beginning…”
I will be there
“Your chances would have been better.”
Won’t you try one more time
“Well in that case, Keith Kogane would you do me the honor of going out with me?”
Be my any kind of guy
“I’d like that.”
You decide it’s alright
Keith hold his hand out and I take it in mine. We walk hand and hand to class together.
I will be there
