Keith nods once at Lance. "Yeah, thanks." He means it, but it's hard not to
be distracted by Shiro when the other wolf laughs like that. When Shiro
answers, Keith's expression widens into a grin. "Oh? That a fact?" How
polite of Shiro, really. Keith is about to inform the other man that he'll
be happy to put that to the test too but Shiro keeps talking.
And Keith's heart thuds heavy and hard and he finds himself caught by that
grin on the other's face -- he's beautiful, brighter than the fullest moon
and near blinding for it -- and feels himself smiling in answer. Always
been waiting for you. And okay, maybe it's in the context of games and
competitive streaks, it still echoes in Keith's ears.
It brings to mind those other words, the ones Shiro had spoken earlier that
had seemed almost accidentally voiced at the time. "Because I'm yours?" He
asks, voice low, but smile still lingering on his features. And because
you're mine.
