sleepover for two 🍿🌙🧸

(a space ranger vlogs mini fic)

=========================

"Well, the heater is officially broken. Great."

Lance scratches his head as he tries to work with the van's less than amazing heating and cooling system. Keith crouches down next to him. "And there's nothing we can do?"

"It seems like it." Lance stands back up and pulls out his phone. Keith does the same, but heads back into the van. He plops onto the bed and sighs. He decides to add this little dilemma to their Ranger Squad Instagram story. Besides posting about their actual trips and outings, they post the other stuff like this. Followers love these things, apparently. 

He takes a small video and publishes the story when Lance walks in and lays down next to him. 

"I called a guy. He should be here tomorrow morning." Lance digs his head into the pillow. "Man, why'd the heater break down in the middle of the coldest week ever?" he groans. Keith ruffles the other boy's hair.

"I'm sure we'll survive."

A couple slow minutes pass when Lance jolts and turns over with a suddenly bright smile. "I just had the best. Idea. Ever!"

Seeing Keith's confused daze, he puts his hands in the air and continues. "Let's have a sleepover!"

Keith blinks. "Lance, we've been sleeping over in the van this whole time, in case you haven't noticed."

Lance shakes his head,"Sure dude, we've been sleeping in the van, but we've never slept over in the van! You know, like a proper sleepover! Like we did in high school."

"Like with more pillows and blankets, and stuff?"

Lance nods with excitement. "Yeah! And you know those fairy lights we bought a couple weeks ago, but never put up? Let's put them up! If it's gonna be cold tonight, why not take advantage?" Lance pauses. "We don't have to post anything about it either. It'll be just us."

Keith feels a smile creep onto his face. "Let's do it."

The Sun sets, and the two get ready for bed. They found some extra cushions and strung up the fairy lights. The harsh, white van lights are replaced with the soft, yellow glow from the small bulbs above the bedroom section. It's way colder outside than it was in the afternoon, but honestly with this set up, it doesn't bother Keith as much as it would. 

Lance pulls on a faded red-sleeved hoodie with a sun graphic on it. The piece of clothing was originally Keith's, but Lance wore it once, and after that became official shared property. Keith wears his own navy blue hoodie, layered over his regular pajama shirt.

He crawls into bed, where Lance is already sitting with a huge bowl of warm, buttered popcorn. They have two foldable bed tray desks, one for each of them. Carefully, Keith sets them up so that they can put the laptop in the middle of the two tables. He slides three pillows on the wall so that they can rest their backs, have the comforter cover them whole, and are able to watch a movie in comfort. They shift into place, and now they're close. Really close.

 Lance passes the bowl to Keith and opens Netflix.

"Whatya wanna watch?" He scrolls through the choices. "This one?"

It's some run of the mill romantic comedy, but it's probably the most perfect choice for a sleepover.

"Sure."

He clicks play, and the opening theme starts with a cheesy pop song. Yep, romantic comedy at it's finest. 

More than half an hour passes. The popcorn bowl is swept clean with the exception of a few kernels. Lance's eyes are fixed on the movie. Keith moves a little, and freezing air creeps into the covers. He rests his head on Lance's shoulder. They've done this before, cuddling as they watch a movie or YouTube videos, but this time feels a little different. Maybe it's the lights, cozy arrangement, and the cold that's making Keith's cheeks turn pink. Maybe it's the fact that Keith really likes this. That he really likes Lance. It's probably a combination of all three.

"Hey, 'you cold?" Lance's voice is soft and sleepy. 

"Yeah, 'little bit." Keith nestles his face into the crook of the other boy's neck. Lance slowly wraps an arm around Keith, pressing gently against his body. He melts in the newfound warmth.

"We don't have to finish the movie if you're tired," Lance says, but the notion is lost into silence. The two main movie characters are finally kissing. 

"Nah, s'okay." Keith closes his eyes. "Too cold to move." 

"Alright. I'll wake you when the movie's over then," Lance whispers, and Keith barely hears it.

(By the time that the credits appear on screen, Keith is fast asleep. Lance can't help but to press a light kiss on his forehead. Keith won't feel it, or remember it in the morning, and Lance is okay with that.)

(They end up sleeping together side by side all night long.)
