This story takes place after The Pulse.
Akria's P.O.V
It had been a week since Hiro and the gang and I saved the city. I was sitting down at the café reading the newspaper. The front picture had me and Hiro kissing each other (as our superheroes of course.) Hiro came down and sat next to me.
"Hey." He said. Now ever since we kissed we hadn't well...we hadn't define the relationship both of us were avoiding the talk. I mean both of us haven't dated before. So we weren't sure what to say. I mean...I never thought this would happen.
"Whoa." He pointed at the picture of the two of us on the front page. "That's the one they chose?"
"Hiro this picture is all over the news!" I whispered to him. "Look at this article." I read it before and it was talking about how we saved the city and the speculation of the pulse and the leader of Big Hero 6 was dating. All of this press and coverage just pushed the talk back even more. I knew eventually though we would have it. But why I mean it just makes things even awkward. To talk about the future! I would rather focus on now.
At that moment Honey Lemon walked in with everyone. They smiled at the two of us. Honey Lemon and everyone having been pushing us to have the talk. She pulled up a seat and said "Hey, guys."
"Hey Honey Lemon." Hiro and I said together.
"Wow you two are so in sync with each other." Wasabi commented.
"I knew you two would be together. That's why I won the bet." GoGo mentioned. Hiro and I looked at each other still feeling awkward about that. How they all betted on whether we would get together or not. Hopefully GoGo doesn't have to get back there money.
"You guys have made it official right?" Honey Lemon asked.
"Well..." Hiro said rubbing the back of his neck.
"You two still haven't talked about it." Honey Lemon exclaimed.
"Why should we...I mean it just makes thing even more difficult and awkward, talking about our future." I said.
"Nope the two of you upstairs." Honey Lemon said as she pointed at the steps.
'What?!" Hiro and I shouted.
"Now!" Scared Hiro and I went upstairs with Honey following us. She walked us into our room. And sat us down. "Okay you two sit here and talk."
"About what?!" Hiro exclaimed.
"About your relationship." She then walked out shutting the door behind her. I looked at Hiro and said...
"What now?" He pulled out a controller and went to his computer.
"Video games."
"You know me." For an hour or so we sat there and played games just having fun as best friends." I looked over at Hiro and smiled. His eyes shined as we played. He was smiling so I could see his little tooth gap. I felt my chest flutter again. That happens every time I look at him. I set down my controller and paused the game. "We need to talk don't we?" I asked feeling a down.
He set his down too and said "Yeah we do." We sat there in silence for a moment. How do we even start a conversation like this?
"Hiro I..."
"Listen when I first meet you, you where my friend and I started to feel something more. And when we danced that one night I knew I like liked you."
"Me too...Your my best friend and more" I said back.
"And when you kissed me everything..."
"Was right." I said finishing his sentence. He grabbed my hand and held it tight.
"I want to get to know you and I want to try this."
"So do I. What do we have to lose?" I added on.
"Nothing so..."
"Boyfriend and girlfriend?"
"Definitely" We sat for a minute realizing we had just define the relationship. I think?
"Is that it?" I said. "I thought it would be longer."
"So did I? Huh." He went over to his desk and brought out some gummy bears. "So shall we finish the game?" He said pulling up his controller. I grabbed a gummy bear and popped it in my mouth.
"Let's do this." As we played I realized something. Hiro is still my best friend even if he is my boyfriend He's both. He is that person I want to be with all the time, and maybe that's why he is my boyfriend. And it's even more special that he was my friend first before my boyfriend. And will always be both. And because of that I wasn't scare to take this step. I knew that this relationship would last.
