AAAAA.Hello,I am that shy anon. And before I make a mess of your askbox and ramble about AUs,I want to talk about the long distance AU(your AUs are so good they give me life tbh like I would want a detailed expansion for every one but I don't want to bother you), so I imagine everyone lives in different parts of the world. I imagine Lance living in Miami, you know, and Pidge in Italy (I hc that Sam's parents are german that's why the Holt surname), Keith is korean (I really want Korean!Keith)1/?
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Honestly, it’s a blast to get people asking about my AUs so you could ask to hear every single AU and I’d eventually get to them all and THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR DROPPING THIS IN BECAUSE I LOVE HEARING OTHER PEOPLE’S TAKES ON AUs !!
ALSO, SORRY THIS IS SO LATE! TURNS OUT I HAD A LOT MORE TO SAY ABOUT THIS AU THAN I THOUGHT AND I GOT BUSY!
Honestly, our takes on this AU are pretty similar but I have some of the Paladins in different locations and slightly different inside jokes and meetings so here’s how those go:
Long Distance AU
Locations
Shrio - Fukuoka, Japan - UTC+09:00Boy has been born and raised in Japan and lives in an apartment here
Keith - Calgary, Alberta (Canada) - UTC-07:00You can blame r-i-v-e-r for my love of Canadian! Keith (and my desire to reference my family’s inside jokes (I live with a bunch of Canadians)(he’s pretty much going to be a mix of Canon! Keith and my family))
Pidge + Matt - Charlottesville, Virginia (USA) - UTC−05:00 and Bari, Italy - UTC+02:00Every summer the two have a mandatory trip to Italy to visit family and don’t come back until Winter
Lance - San Diego, California (USA) - UTC-08:00Family is from Cuba (took a long ass time to get into America and even longer to become Americans) but he was born a Cali Boy (that comes into play a bit later)
Hunk - Apia, Samoa - UTC+13:00Most of his family lives in a village outside the capital but he and his parents live in the capital
Allura + Coran - Dunedin, Otago (New Zealand) - UTC+13:00Allura is currently being taken care of by Coran
[More Under the Cut]
How They Met
Keith and Shiro were the first to meet when Keith’s family took a trip to Japan
Keith got lost and Shiro helped guide him back to his hotel
Shiro was surprisingly good at English despite having spent his whole life in Japan (his accent was heavy though)
When Keith went back to Canada, he stayed in contact with Shiro via Skype
The two bonded by playing free Steam games and making fun of them and also watching Youtube videos with each other
Keith met Pidge and Matt next
He was playing Overwatch and ended up in a party with her and her brother and they all ended up in voice chat
They all got along so well they ended up exchanging Skypes
Keith ended up introducing them to Shiro and everything hit off well
Pidge met Hunk through Minecraft
She was on a particularly cringy server (so many kids desperate to date someone) when she and Hunk started talking through the game’s chat
They started to build on the same plot and they soon exchanged Skypes to keep in touch
Matt met Lance on Instagram
Neither of them recalls who said hi to who first but they quickly became friends because of their similar interests
Eventually, they exchanged Discords and Matt invited Lance to play some Overwatch with him, his sister, and Keith
Lance accepted and he started a rivalry with Keith when he first met him and hit it off with Pidge really well (despite being annoyed by her constantly getting PoTG)
Lance made the jump to Skype to meet Shiro and that’s when Pidge also introduced Hunk to the group
Lance was the one who brought Allura into the group because she was one of his first friends from Instagram
Despite not being into too many video games, she got along well with everyone else
Coran would sometimes appear in the background of video chats with Allura and swing by to say hi to everyone
That’s how this mess of people met
Timezone Fuckery
Fortunately, their timezones aren’t too wonky that they can’t all be in a call at once (unless Matt and Pidge are in Italy)
When it’s noon where Lance is:Shiro - 5:00 AMKeith - 1:00 PMPidge + Matt - 3:00 PM (USA) and 9:00 PM (Italy)Hunk - 10:00 AMAllura + Coran - 9:00 AM
They still don’t regularly do group calls
Most of the time it’s small groups or just a duo that talk to each other because their schedules are the wonky things
Shiro, Allura, and Hunk are the busiest of the group
Pidge, Keith, and Lance are the least busy
Matt can either be very busy or very free
There is no between
Shiro
Dude is an introvert that knows how to people quite well
You’d seriously think he’s an extrovert but he isn’t
Give him that quiet alone time and he’s a happy camper
Probably the busiest member of the group because he’s trying to get into JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency)
He has a love for Space and Science and is kinda a secret dork about it all (the Holts know it though)
He does enjoy video games but only in moderation
Keith has convinced him to play them a bit more than usual
Shiro does play Overwatch but he stays on the Asia servers (he has jumped onto the American servers once or twice to play a few games with Keith (it wasn’t easy))
Soldier: 76 Main (Team Dad)
Speaking of “Team Dad,” he’s the guy who makes sure everyone goes to bed at a decent time (especially the Holts when they’re in Italy)
He doesn’t really follow his own rule though because he has insomnia
He was in a car crash when he was a teen which is how he got the scar across his nose (he still has black hair and both of his arms though)
The car crash really screwed him up for a good few years as he became terrified of cars (one comes at him on his side and he’s freezing up and panicking)
He was late to start driving a car because of that
He’s much better about the whole thing now
He now just has the occasional nightmare about the event and he’s a rather cautious driver
He’s started to talk in English so often thanks to the calls with the others that he now sometimes forgets how to say the Japanese word of something he says in English a lot
He curses the group for this but everyone laughs it off
He was the one who started the trend of teaching everyone statements in your native language that doesn’t mean the thing the person teaching says it means
He’s actually a secret jokester and is not afraid to mess around with his friends
Gallows humor for days, m’dude
Probably works at a retail store while he finishes up his studies before trying to get into the space program
He’s dead inside, please help him
Keith
A strange mix of social and antisocial
He goes quiet in large group calls but will talk up a storm in small calls
Tends to call the most because he heads out a lot and he doesn’t want to have to deal with talking with a lot of people
Using a Skype call is a great excuse for that
The lone Canadian of the group and the most adamant that Canadians and Americans are nothing alike
Doesn’t seem to sleep ?? Like at all ??
You can message him at any time and he’ll probably respond within a few minutes
Very blunt way of messaging, using just a few words per text
Very much a user of video when he’s out of his house but not so much when he’s in it
He’ll show his surroundings while walking around and make comments about it
He was once in a call with Lance and Pidge while he was at Tim Hortons and when Lance tried to argue that Dunkin’ Donuts was better, Keith ended the call and called Pidge individually
He also complains about the weather a lot ??
“IT’S REALLY FUCKING COLD!”
He also hates when it’s June and the sun doesn’t set until nearly 10 at night
*turns on camera* “You see this shit?! It’s 8 PM and there’s still sun!”
Also gets oddly excited during the Calgary Stampede
Like, you don’t like crowds so why are you so excited ??
Turns out he likes watching Rodeos
Also, he wears a cowboy hat every stampede and Lance makes fun of him every time
Also, he says “Eh” without meaning to (it’s basically his way of saying “Right?”)
Lance calls him out every time he does so, causing him to be self-conscious every time he does it(My parents do that a lot and I call them out every time)
“IT’S ‘ZED’ NOT ‘ZEE’ !!”“WE DON’T CALL IT A ‘ZED-BRA,’ KEITH !!”
Also, he totally has a Kinder Surprise almost every call and whenever someone (Lance) asks him what it is he’ll just respond: “Something you can’t have.”(Kinder Eggs are illegal in the USA)
Korean but has never lived in Korea
Knows a few Korean words but not enough to hold a conversation
Genji Main in Overwatch
He’s an enigma of a boy --
Pidge
Doesn’t talk much unless either:A ) She cares about the person talking to herB ) It’s something she’s interested in
Tends to eat during calls so she’s either really quiet or talking with her mouth full
Worst potty mouth out of everyone
Tries to hide it from her parents but her parents know
They know all too well
Loves video games with a passion 
Plays Overwatch a lot and mains Symmetra
She knows all the best spots for turrets and steals PoTG a lot
A true night owl and is not a morning person at all
Fortunately, due to timezones, no one really gets to see the gremlin she is in the morning
Can be very blunt on accident
Doesn’t really know how to people ??
She and Keith are good friend because of this
Likes spooky paranormal shit but doesn’t really believe in any of it
Acts like she does to screw with people though (Keith joins in on this)
Game Theorist before Game Theory was even a thing
Girl has a lot of crazy ideas
Also, she’s a hand talker through and through (it’s an Italian thing)
Uses every rude Italian gesture known to man
Keith and Matt are the only ones who know what the gestures mean
She and Matt prank each other a lot
If the camera is on while she talks, you’ll see a lot of robot and building projects behind her that are unfinished
Is totally the type of person who gets a bunch of projects started and jumps between them as she gets bored with one
Loves movies but loves making fun of them more
She’s a horrible person to watch movies with
She’ll spoil shit she’s already seen and comment on every cliche she sees (even if she likes those cliches)
If she’s driving, she’s very aggressive --
She’d give Shiro a heart attack if she drove him anywhere because he driving would seriously bring back flashbacks to his car crash
Fortunately, she can’t drive him anywhere so he’s safe
Matt isn’t though. Rip
Speaks in fluent memery
Likes Minecraft unironically for the cringe and the ability to build anything
Very snarky but also very sweet
She’s a literal Sour Patch Kid
Matt
An extroverted dork
He and Lance are the masters of keeping conversations going
Also, a total otaku ??
He loves his anime --
Tries to get Pidge to watch a few things but she’s only really found herself liking a lot more of the “edgy” anime (AoT, Parasyte (personal fave), Tokyo Ghoul, Another, etc)
He’s more into the upbeat and popular stuff (Fairy Tail, Lucky Star, SAO, Hetalia, OHSHC, etc) (not a true anime fan) (also, he watched and liked Free! (he doesn’t tell anyone though))
Shiro has had to deal with mildly racist (but not intentionally) questions about anime from Matt (not all Japanese people know/like anime, Matt)
That was towards the beginning of their relationship though so it doesn’t happen anymore
Now he mostly talk dorky space stuff with Shiro
Matt wants to get into NASA like his dad (Pidge wants to too, but is also focusing on other things)
He’s a D.Va Main. Fight me
Also a hand talker like Pidge --
He really likes strategy games too ??
But he also likes dumb games and rage games --
Hates horror games though (Pidge loves them)
He almost died when Pidge made him play a VR horror game --
She recorded his reaction and sent it to everyone in the group
No one lets him live down his girly scream
Pidge fucks with him by playing scary music outside his door or in his room when he isn’t expecting it
Anything mildly eerie can get him to scream within a few seconds
He does oddly well in scary mazes though ?? Like, the ones where people jump out at you ??
Like, he sometimes screams but otherwise, he’s really calm ??
Sends memes to everyone at ungodly hours
Actual sweetheart who’ll listen to your problems and try to help you
Also, he’s every one of his friends’ #1 fan ??
He’s a great friend tbh --
Lance
EXTROVERT

Like, not at all --
Drops to 70 and he’s in sweatpants, a knit sweater, slippers, a scarf, and you question how he even lives --
Loves the idea of love and is a hopeless romantic --
Wants a fairytale romance but after he and Pidge end up together (yes, that happens in this AU (I’m so predictable)) he knows he’s not going to get one but couldn’t be happier
Really competitive and fights with Keith a lot still
Also a glory hog --
Bilingual with English and Spanish and tends to forget words in both languages
Also the type of person who walks through the process of figuring out the forgotten word vocally
The words he forgets vary from really simple to really difficult
No one else in the group speaks Spanish so they can’t help him
Nicknamed “Starboy” from his Youtube Channel
Really good boi --
Hunk
Soft and friendly introvert --
Like, he’s everyone's friend but also everyone’s biggest critic

Mostly plays Minecraft but does play Overwatch from time to time
Like Minecraft for the building freedom
It allows him to brainstorm

If anyone needs cooking help they’ll call him and have him guide them through the art of cooking
He has saved lives this way
Does not touch spooky shit at all --
He’s not a screamer like you think he would be but he tenses up and dies a little every time he is spooked before he glares and ignores whoever scared him by giving them the cold shoulder
Cold-Shoulder Hunk is the worst Hunk to be met with because it just hurts your soul when he does this
He and Pidge are the tech dorks of the group and have similar projects they both work on at the same time so they can help each other
Doesn’t do calls too often because his family isn’t rich enough for him to be doing international calls all the times
He also heads out to the village where the rest of his family lives often so he isn’t around his computer much
Has never left Samoa until he met the others
Traveling scares him but also gets him really excited because he’s going to be so far away from home but he’s gonna see a bunch of new stuff but he’s going to be so far from home ??
Gives the best hugs, no argument
Meet him in person and you’ve gotta hug him

Her dad and mother’s deaths are a very sensitive topic and she doesn’t like talking about it

Most of them catch on to what she’s doing and complain while she just laughs every time
Likes vlogging a lot
Constantly switches between being very confident in herself and being very self-conscious
She hates that fact about her --
Like, brain, please just let her be confident all the time ??
Likes shopping but only when there aren’t big crowds (she hates bumping into a lot of people)
Pretty much the master of learning everyone’s secrets and no one is quite sure how she does it
Milkshakes are the bomb and she has one also every call (kinda like Keith and his Kinders)
FABULOUS !!
Coran
Doesn’t show up very often but is pretty much everyone’s uncle at this point
He’s crazy but everyone loves him
He’s a swell guy who’ll tell really random stories from his past if Allura lets him
She doesn’t often because he talks a lot omg
Once everyone knows where each other lives he sends them all gifts if he can ??
Small trinkets, food, ect.
He’s a dork
Inside Jokes
*Keith blasting California Gurls whenever Lance is in a call*
“Oh geez, who got Play of the Game ?? Pidge ?? No way !!” *pure sarcasm*
Lance and Keith’s constant fight to either get the most damage or PoTG
The Donut Discourse™
Teaching each other incorrect statements in their native tongues (if they have one)
All of the Vine References. ALL OF THEM
Someone playing “Kiss The Girl” from The Little Mermaid the second someone says something that can be interpreted as even slightly romantic
The 80′s Voltron References
Everyone tries to scare Matt
“What the fuck is everyone eating today?!” - Always a topic in calls
*water is even remotely cold* “Is that the Polar Bear Plunge?” (Always directed at Keith and it pisses him off)
Calling Pidge by every possible variation of her nickname
Shiro uses all the outdated memes
Pidge is the meme master
“I didn’t mean to send that!” (Totally meant to send that)
References to 11 Drunk Guys ??
The Star Wars/Star Trek War™
“What the fuck even is English?”
“UN-CLE! UN-CLE! UN-CLE!” *every time they see Coran in Allura’s screen*
Random inspirational movie quotes
“My theme song is...”
McPixel references and jokes (they’ve all played it)
There’s definitely more but I can’t think of them right now. XD
Relationships Form
Pretty much Plance, Sheith, and Mallura happens in my take of this AU
Lance and Pidge start playing video games together on their own
Keith goes into a lot of solo calls with Shiro
Matt and Allura talk a lot more
Basically shit happens
Lance and Pidge’s relationship actually starts out rather plainly
They were talking one game and they got on the topic of relationships and Pidge was like: “You wanna try it?”Lance: “What?”Pidge: “Wanna try being in a long distance relationship?”Lance: “Ummm.... Sure....?”Pidge: “Cool.”
Things got much more romantic after that
Lance is a romantic boy and even if their relationship didn’t start conventionally, he’s going to turn it into a sappy romcom --
Pidge isn’t complaining. She did ask him if he wanted to be in a relationship with her for a reason
Shiro and Keith had a bit more romantic of a relationship starter
Shiro flew over to Canada to visit Keith for a week or two (during the Stampede because Keith insisted that Shiro should come and see it)
Shiro made his move, not at the stampede (there’s no way he'd be able to grab Keith’s attention) but rather at the Calgary Tower
They were standing on the glass that sticks out over the street and Shiro was lowkey freaking out because he didn’t like looking down and seeing how far he could fall directly under his feet (Keith was fine because he loves to sit and chill on the glass regularly)
In his panic, he kinda went: “Keith, if I don’t get off this thing, I want you to know that I love you...!”
Keith knows that Shiro wouldn’t toss that around normally, so he pulls him off the glass and to a less crowded part of the tower so they can talk and it turns out, yeah, Shiro just confessed to Keith
Good thing the feelings mutual!
They almost get kicked off the tower for making out --
Matt and Allura was rather subtle as well
They started talking more and Matt pretty much complimented her daily and eventually she was pretty much like: “If you like it then you should put a ring on it!” (Not her actual words)
Matt shut down for a solid 5 mins before he was like: “uHH?? SURE??”
It’s fine though because they’re a happy, long-distance couple (but they hope the close that distance soon) and Matt treats Allura like the Queen she is --
Lance and Allura totally argue over who has the better Holt, much to the Holts’ embarrassment
Shiro is just like: “Holts are good and all but ‘Koganes’ are where it’s at!”
Cue the three arguing over who has the best s/o while those s/o’s die in a corner --
Also, Hunk ends up with this really cute but tall and strong woman (Shay) who lives in the same area as him
He brings her into the calls sometimes
Meeting In Real Life
The first ones to meet in real life (besides how Keith met Shiro) were actually Keith and Lance
The second Lance landed in Canada he Snapchatted and Instagrammed the whole thing
Poor Cali Boi was suffering because he came up just as fall was starting
Keith played California Gurls the second Lance got into the car
He also teased Lance for not being able to handle the cold
Lance got to try Tim Hortons and it officially ended The Donut Discourse™
Lance asked if they could try the Polar Bear Plunge and Keith was just like: “That’s a New Year’s thing, so no.”
The two messed with each other a lot during the trip but left with a better relationship
They’re like brothers now
Pidge and Matt met Allura and Coran next
It was really fun and Matt got to see his wonderful girlfriend in person and it made the whole trip even more amazing
While Matt and Allura did couple things, Pidge and Coran hung out
Pidge now brags about the fact she knows more of Coran’s crazy stories than everyone else besides Allura
Hunk and Lance met after when Hunk flew over to California for a week
Lance dragged the poor boy anywhere he could
Totally brought him to Disneyland and learned the hard way that some rides are not good for Hunk’s body
Hunk still had fun though
The Shiro and Keith confession trip followed that
Shiro didn’t really understand the Stampede even after Keith explained it but he still thought it was pretty cool
He much preferred going on the fair rides than going to the rodeo though
Also, there was one day it got really cold and the new couple got to cuddle by the fire ??
It was soft as hell ??
Lance flew over Virginia to see his girlfriend and her brother not long after Keith and Shiro’s trip because there was no way he was going to let Keith one up him
Pidge gave him the tour of American History while he was over there because he had never been to the East Coast before
Lance didn’t pay attention too much and just enjoyed the fact that he was actually with his girlfriend in person
There was a lot of hugs and stolen kisses that trip
The big trip where everyone gathered in one spot soon followed that trip
Pidge and Matt’s home in Italy was chosen for the destination because it was during the summer and who doesn’t want to visit Italy ??
Since the Italian side is Colleen’s side, the family’s last name on that side is Marino
The Marinos pitched in to help get Hunk, Keith, Shiro, Allura, and Coran over because they knew that the trip was expensive
Lance’s family was able to support the trip on their own
They all were together for about a week then Shiro and Keith headed off to Rome for a week to have some couple time before heading home
Hunk flew back home after the week was up (he couldn’t stay long)
Coran flew back home as well but Allura stayed with Matt for another week because he ended up surprising her with a trip to Venice
Lance ended up staying the longest because he wanted to get to know Pidge’s family and life quite well
He stayed 3 weeks with them and unlike the other couples who went to different locations, he and Pidge stayed local
Pidge and Matt’s family really like Lance and Allura
Questions about when the wedding would be were tosses around a lot
Those are pretty much all the trips up to this point as there still friends who need to see each other individually
Still, they’re excited about these trips whenever they do happen
So, yeah, that’s my take on the Long Distance AU --

Science class
It was that time of the day again, science class. I have science 3 hours a week and it’s gonna be the death of me. It’s not because I hate science that much. I mean, I don’t love science but there are some things that are way worse than trying to remember what number two on the periodic table is. It’s Helium but I’m not 100% sure, because my lab partner keeps distracting me. And that guy is the exact reason why science class is going to be the death of me.
 I walked into the classroom and sat down on my usual spot, next to my lab partner. “Hey John” he spoke and he looked at me with that sly smile of his. “Hey Sherlock…” I said and I sighed softly. I put the papers and books I needed down on the table. Sherlock looked at the papers. “Did you finish all of your homework?” he asked, some of his dark curly hair falling in his face. I nodded. “Yeah” I said. “Neat, then I can copy it right?” he asked. I sighed and handed him my homework. “Sure…” I said. “Thanks John, you’re the best” he said and he copied my homework.
 I sighed again and looked at him as he was copying my homework. The reason Sherlock is going to be the death of me is because he never does anything in class, even though he’s extremely smart. Well, doing nothing is the wrong way of putting it. He does something. And sure, it’s science but making a substance that makes you fall asleep and then put it in the teacher’s coffee mug doesn’t get you a higher grade. It just makes the teacher angry.
 Sherlock looked at me and showed that sly smile of his again. “Thanks” he said and he handed me my homework again. “You know, Moriarty and I were thinking about doing something after class. Wanna come too?” he asked me. Jim Moriarty, a ‘friend’ of his. I don’t know why but they always refer to each other with their surnames. “Sure” I said, but the moment the word slipped from my mouth I knew I was going to regret it.
 To be really honest, him not doing any work wasn’t the only reason he was gonna be the death of me. He was also extremely handsome. And the girls from our year knew that too. And if you didn’t notice it already on my sweaters and haircut, I’m pretty gay. And my stupid gay self, had to develop a crush on Sherlock.
 The teacher walked into the classroom and immediately gave us an assignment. He didn’t even greet us, he just threw some papers on everyone’s desks with the assignment on it. I read the assignment and started writing down some stuff.
 The class was over before we knew it, which meant I had to go somewhere with Jim and Sherlock next. Sherlock and I walked out of the classroom, towards the school’s front door. Sherlock was telling a random story about his dog or something like that, I didn’t really pay attention. He waved his hand in front of my eyes and chuckled. “Moriarty is waiting for us outside” he said. I nodded and a slight blush appeared on my face. Did he notice I wasn’t paying attention to his story that quickly?
 We walked out of the school. Sherlock looked around for his friend. He sighed when he couldn’t find him. “I’m gonna call him, wait a sec” he said and he grabbed his phone. He called Jim and asked him where he was. By the annoyed look on his face I knew Jim’s answer wasn’t very good. Sherlock said goodbye and hung up the phone.
 “Something came up, he can’t come” he said, looking very annoyed and maybe a bit pissed. “But we can still do something if you like” he looked at me. “Yeah, sure” I said, not really knowing what else to say. “Cool” he said and his face lit up immediately. It made me blush again.
 “Do you like horror movies?” Sherlock asked. “Because there’s this new one and we can go watch it at the cinema if you want”. “Sure” I said. Another thing I regretted saying just after it left my mouth. I hate horror movies with a passion. Especially when I watch them in the cinema, because the music is way louder and you can’t really look away.
 “Awesome” Sherlock said and he looked at me with a smile, a genuine smile for once. “I’ll pay for your ticket” he said and he grabbed my arm and dragged me towards a taxi. “I can pay for my own ticket” I said. “It’s not that expensive, unlike a taxi” I said. Sherlock looked at me and chuckled. “You’re funny John” he said. “T-thanks” I said, kinda flustered.
 We got into the taxi and Sherlock told the driver to drive towards the nearest cinema. After a few minutes, we arrived. Sherlock paid the driver and we got out of the car. “Since you paid for the taxi, I’ll pay for the tickets” I said and we walked towards the cinema. “Okay, thanks John” Sherlock said and he smiled. Another genuine one. I didn’t know this guy could smile genuinely more than once a day.
 We walked into the cinema and I paid for our tickets. I paid for tickets to a movie I didn’t even want to see. We bought some food and drinks and we walked towards the cinema room. We sat down at our spots. I looked at Sherlock and he looked back at me. “You know, my brother always said I shouldn’t watch this kind of movies in the cinema” he said. “Because the music makes it way scarier and stuff” he said and I nodded in agreement.
 I sometimes forgot that Sherlock has a brother. A few months ago, there was this rumour going around about him. For some reason people thought his brother was named Minecraft or Microsoft or something and they thought it was hilarious. I, on the other hand, think it’s bullshit. No one would call his kid Minecraft, or Microsoft. It’s just stupid.
 “The main goal of a horror movie is to scare you, so wouldn’t it be better, if you watched it in the cinema?” Sherlock said and he looked at the screen, which was now playing some commercials. “My brother can be an idiot sometimes”. I nodded again. “Ye-“ I got cut off by the lights turning off and the movie that started. I sighed softly and just watched the screen, hoping I wouldn’t die of a heart attack by some jumpscare or something like that.
 After, like, two hours the movie finished. And to be honest, it wasn’t that scary. I jumped a few times and one time I grabbed Sherlock’s hand as a reflex but that’s it. I still feel kinda awkward because I grabbed his hand but I don’t let him notice it.
 We walked out of the cinema. Sherlock stopped walking and looked at me. I stopped walking too and looked back at him. “You know John, I had a really great time today” he said. I nodded. “Yeah, me too” I said with a smile. “And if you want, we can go on dates more often” Sherlock said.
 I looked at him, confused. Did he just use the word date? Did he say that on accident or does he just use that word weirdly? Sherlock saw the confused look on my face and laughed. “You did know this was a date, right?” he said. I shook my head, even more confused. “I was too awkward to ask you, that’s why I said Moriarty was going to be there too” he said.
 “Ooh” I said, kinda understanding now. “But how did you know I had a crush on you?” I asked. He laughed in respond. “Well my dear John, it was obvious. The way you looked at me sometimes, your body language around me” he said and shrugged. “Then why didn’t you just tell me you liked me back?” I asked. “I was just too awkward and shy, I guess” he said and he shrugged again.
 That sly smile of his appeared on his face. “Since you like me and all, you don’t mind if I do this, right?” he said then he kissed me. I closed my eyes in suprise and kissed him back. He pulled away after a few seconds and I opened my eyes again.
 “See you in science class, John” he said and he walked off.
 I watched him walk away, knowing science class will never be the same. I have no idea if that’s a good thing or a bad thing, but I’m gonna say it’s good.
