Also, I'm changing the legal drinking age to 18 for reasons.
Original oneshot
Lance sat outside a bar at the new planet they were on. He had been paired up with Keith and Shiro to explore the planet. Since Shiro and Keith were of legal drinking age(*Shrug*), they thought it'd be fun to get a drink. But they forbid Lance to go with them.
1. He was only 17
2. They knew he would flirt too much if he got drunk.
So, he just sat on the sidewalk, hearing the happiness inside the bar that he could never seem to find.
"Um, what are you doing?"
Lance looked up. He had been sitting under a window when someone peaked their head through.
The person looked to be Galra, but had long flowing white hair. At first Lance was a little scared, but he relied that not all Galra are part of the empire, Some are probably just living normal lives.
"Oh, just waiting for my friends," Lance told him. "I'm not old enough to drink yet, just one more year!" Lance gave the man a thumbs up.
"Well that's rude," the man said. "Leaving you all alone while they have all the fun!"
"Yeah, we were supposed to stay together. But they're closer to eachother so I bet they just wanted an excuse to ditch me."
"Even ruder,"
"Hey, what's your name?" Lance asked, standing up to lean on the windowsill.
"Prince Lotor," the man shook his hand.
"of what?" Lance laughed.
"The Galra empire," the man mumbled.
Lance ripped his hand away.
"B-But I've been banished!" Lotor said quickly. "I have no power!"
Lance stopped.
"Why should I believe you? Why were you banished?"
"1. The Prince of the Galra wouldn't be in a bar on this lowly planet?
2. I was banished for not making a planet suffer. My father Zarkon didn't want to me to run the planet like I was, which was working with them rather having power over them. He ended up blowing up the planet."
"I'm...I'm so sorry," Lance walked closer and leaned on the windowsill again.
Lotor smiled. "Don't be! It was years ago. Its in the past. Now its just me and my little gang of rebels!"
Lotor smirked. "So, what's your name? Profession? Number?"
Lance blushed heavily.
"I-I'm Lance," Lance said. "I'm the blue pilot of V-Voltron."
"Voltron!" Lotor gasped with a smile. "How amazing!"
"It's not really, I'm not really as important. I just fly the blue lion, that's all!"
"Its wonderful!" the prince stopped.
"But you never answered my third question..." Lotor licked his lips.
Lance blushed heavily, again.
"My-My number?"
"I would love to get to know you Lance, more than I already do. Possibly even get dinner?"
"Would that even be Ok?" Lance asked. "A paladin dating a Galra prince?"
"Who says they have to know?"
____________
3 MONTHS LATER:
Lance was absolutely smitten! Lotor was so sweet and kind. Over the phone and in person! At first he was planning to tell the team, but then things got complicated...
FLASHBACK:
It was a week after they defeated Zarkon. Lance was so happy! But then, ALuirra called an emergency meeting.
"Everyone, I have grave news." Alurra said. "The galra have anew ruler, and are once again a threat."
"Who is this new ruler?" Shiro asked.
"He goes by Prince Lotor,"
Lance was shocked.
As soon as the meeting was over, Lance called Lotor.
"What are we going to do?!" Lance hissed. "You're not really gonna fight Voltron are you?!"
"I have no choice," Lotor sighed. "I have to do what the empire expects of me."
"But what about us?! I love you Lotor! I love you so much!" Lance sobbed.
"Perhaps we only fight for a little while," Lotor said. "Then we can form an alliance?"
"That could work! Put on a little act for now! But it can't go on for too long!"
"Of course, maybe a month or so."
"But what about date night?" Lance pouted.
"Just like when I first met you,"
"Who had to know?"
END FLASHBACK
Lance practically floated around the castle every day, the very thought of Lotor making his heart soar.
But the others were confused. he had stopped flirting with Alurra, but was totally love struck. So who had stolen his heart?
"What's up with him?" Shiro wondered.
"I have no idea," Pidge said. "Hunk, did he tell you anything?"
"No, which is weird. He would always rant to me about his crushes!" Hunk said.
"Has anyone seen the mice?" Alurra walked in.
"Alurra, hasn't Lance been acting weird?" keith asked.
"Yes, its odd." Alurra said.
"Hello everyone!" Corran walked in.
"Oh Corran!" Alurra smiled. "Have you seen the mice?"
"Oh I have! Lance was talking to them in his room."
____
Lance sat with the mice, talking to them about Lotor.
"Just..." Lance squealed in giddiness. "He's so pretty, supportive, and understanding!"
The mice were on the edge of their seats.
"I think..."
One fell over.
"I think he's the one!"
The mice jumped for joy.
Suddenly, Lance's phone buzzed. He gasped.
"It's him!"
Lance looked over thje text.
"He's sent me coordinators for his ship! He's asked me to dinner!" Lance jumped up and down. "He said he had a surprise planned!"
Lance couldn't wait!
____
"Who's he talking about?" Pidge asked quietly as they spied on Lance and the mice.
"And he's going to dinner with whoever they are?"
"I better go tell the team I'll be heading tonight," the heard Lance say.
They scrambled back to the lounge.
...
"Hey guys!" Lance smiled as he walked into the lounge.
"Hey Lance," Hunk said. "Anything you wanna tell us?"
Lance stopped for a second.
"...Oh! Yeah! I just wanted to let you know I'll be heading out tonight, if that's ok."
"That's alright," Alurra said. "Where are you going?"
"I, um, ordered some food and had to pick it up! But the place takes forever so it could take a while. Bye!" Lance smiled and ran off.
Pidge looked up. "We're following him, right?"

Lance landed the small escape pod in a forest on a nearby planet. He approached Lotor's small cruiser.
Lotor came out.
"Blue paladin," he greeted.
"Prince Lotor," Lance bowed.
The two laughed.
"I'm so glad to see you! Thanks again!" Lance smiled.
"How can I not treat my lover to some quality time?" Lotor said, leading Lance inside.
...
The two had a very good dinner.
"When do you think we should form the alliance?"Lance asked.
"I was thinking after two more short battles?" Lotor suggested.
"Sounds great!" Lance smiled.
...
After the two were done with a yummy dinner, Lotor led Lance to a large room.
"This is your suprise darling," Lotor snapped his fingers, and classical music played.
"Lotor..." lance breathed.
"I remembered how much you said you enjoy dancing, so I took some lessons." he held out his hand. May I have this dance?"
Lance giggled and took it.
The two waltzed the night away. Eventually the waltz turned into a slow sway, and then a kiss.
________________
Lance landed back in the castle, quite happy. The night had gone great!
Lance walked back into the lounge to see the team furious.
"What's wrong?" Lance asked. "Is everything OK?"
"How could betray the univirse like this Lance?!" Keith yelled.
"Having a relationship with the ruler of the Galra empire?!" Pidge cried.
"I'm so disappointed in you," Shrio shook his head.
Lance felt like crying. How did they find out?!
"B-But he's not a bad guy!" Lance whimpered. "I met him! Before he was ruling the empire! He wants to make an alliance!"
"He's lying to you Lance," Alurra said.
"How dare you!" Lance yelled. "Lotor would never lie to me!"
"Lance-"
"No!" Lance screamed. "You all invaded my privacy and now acuse me of being a traitor?!"
"Because you are one!" Keith yelled.
"I'm done!" Lance screamed and stormed away.
____________________
That night, Lance left team Voltron for Lotor's team. He got along with them better.
Lance was happy away from team Voltron, and with Lotor.
THE END
BUT WAIT THERE'S A POSSIBLE CONTINUATION?????
Lance and Lotor sat at Lotor's control panel.
"Lance, we need to end the war," Lotor said. "We have to follow through with the plan."
"But...But..." Lance sobbed into his hands.
"I know you don't want to see them, but, we have to make an alliance like planned."'
Lotor turned to Acxa.
"Set a course for the Castle of Lions."
Let me know if I should continue!
