Keith didn't unwind often in front of the whole team. He played with his fingers under the table or bounced his leg, even curling and twisting his wrists back and forth.

And he smiled. And that rare crack of teeth and the squinted eyes and those thin little eyebrows that shifted slightly upward made Lance's heart warm and his face heat up.

Keith had autism, and that was found out during a intense game of "I bet you didn't know this about me." Keith had shrugged and when pestered about why he never mentioned it in the first place, just said "It never came up and I didn't think it was important."

lf anything it just made their team work better, and it made Keith more comfortable with them. He told Lance he didn't like physical contact much if he wasn't expecting it, so Lance had learned to ask if Keith wanted to cuddle, asking if he could put his hand on his waist, run his fingers through his amazingly soft hair, accept the soft kisses on the checks and seemingly out of nowhere hugs-

Lance didn't mind, though. As long as he was keeping Keith as happy and safe as they possibly could while fighting in an intergalactic war, he'll ask before touching and understand when Keith says no, not now.
