Hey guys! Sorry this took a little longer then I intended to get posted. School got kind of crazy but it's finally finished! Hope you enjoy!
If Tadashi was honest with himself, he was sad to see that winter break was almost over. After such a rough semester it was nice being able to take a few weeks off to just spend time with Hiro and Fred. Tadashi tried to remind himself that he still had a week of winter break to enjoy, but it was still sad to think about going back to school. He just hoped this next semester went smoother than last.
After nearly running himself to the ground last semester trying to work every second he wasn't doing something school related Tadashi swore he'd take some time off to spend with Fred and Hiro.
After finishing a repair on some pipes in the kitchen Tadashi was looking for his brother and boyfriend but was so far having little success in actually finding them…
"Tadashi!" Fred shouted, jumping onto Tadashi from behind and tightly hugging him, pinning his arms to his side.
"Dashi!" Hiro shouted, clinging onto Tadashi's leg like a monkey. Tadashi awkwardly flailed his arms trying to keep himself from toppling over from the sudden weight so he wouldn't hurt Hiro.
"What the- guys!" Tadashi exclaimed, trying to sound angry but instead he found himself laughing.
"What we're just saying hi!" Fred declared, kissing Tadashi's cheek.
"And showing how much we love you!" Hiro added, nuzzling Tadashi's leg.
Tadashi smirked and asked, "You're showing me you love me by nearly killing me?"
"Dashi please falling wouldn't kill you," Fred said with a serious expression on his face. "Just seriously maim."
"Oh as long as it's not death," Tadashi deadpanned.
"Yep," Fred agreed, nuzzling into Tadashi's back. "I love you too much to let you die."
"I love you guys you know that?" Tadashi asked with a laugh.
"Of course babe!" Fred exclaimed, kissing Tadashi's cheek again. Hiro giggled and said,
"We know Dashi!" Tadashi grinned down at Hiro and asked,
"So did you guys need something or where you just saying hi?"
"We're here to kidnap you!" Hiro exclaimed, tightening his grip around Tadashi's leg.
"No more working today!" Fred added.
"I wasn't planning on it!" Tadashi exclaimed, laughing.
"Oh….really?" Fred sheepishly asked.
"Really," Tadashi assured, smiling warmly at Fred.
"Oh….well this is awkward…." Fred mumbled, reluctantly releasing Tadashi.
"No, it's cute," Tadashi assured, turning so he could properly kiss Fred.
"Ew!" Hiro moaned, shutting his eyes and burying his face in Tadashi's leg.
"Oh come on buddy!" Tadashi said, pouting. "It's not that gross."
"Does our relationship really bother you?" Fred asked, sounding hurt.
"No, kissing is gross!" Hiro said, making a face. Tadashi and Fred looked at each other, smirking. Tadashi then quickly bent over and picked Hiro up so they could kiss Hiro's cheeks, much to the toddlers horror.
"No! Ew stop!" Hiro groaned, trying to wiggle out of Tadashi's grip. Tadashi and Fred both burst into laughter and started tickling Hiro mercilessly.
"You are at the mercy of the tickle monster!" Fred exclaimed, laughing maniacally.
"No!" Hiro cried, going limp in Tadashi's arms.
"You can never escape!" Tadashi added darkly.
"No please let me go!" Hiro cried, looking up at Tadashi with wide eyes and a pout.
"Aww look at that face," Tadashi cooed. "How can I say no?"
"Easy, no!" Fred exclaimed. "He's so cute I could eat him! In fact…." Fred teasingly smirked before pretending to eat him.
"Fred!" Tadashi gasped, pretending to look horrified. "You can't eat him! You'll spoil your dinner!"
"Oh, sorry," Fred said, no longer 'eating' Hiro.
"Dashi Fred was going to eat me!" Hiro shouted, pouting.
"Don't worry I stopped him from spoiling his dinner," Tadashi assured, winking at Fred. Hiro pouted up at Tadashi who kissed his cheek and said, "Hey don't worry buddy I'd never let someone eat you or anything like that okay?"
"Okay!" Hiro said, nuzzling up against Tadashi.
Tadashi started laughing and asked, "Do you guys want to maybe watch a movie or something before getting some dinner?"
"Yea!" Hiro exclaimed, a wide grin on his face.
"Yea movie marathon!" Fred exclaimed, throwing his fists in the air. Tadashi burst out laughing and kissed Fred's cheek before heading towards the gaming room, holding Hiro with one arm and holding Fred's hand with the other. Fred gently swung their hands as they walked and Tadashi found himself imagining them doing things like this every day.
Before he could think any more about it, he spotted Mary dusting down the hall. Mary glared at Tadashi as they passed, lips tightly pressed together. He had hoped she would eventually get over her anger at Tadashi, no such luck it seemed. If anything, she seemed to hate him more than ever. At least now Fred knew about her hatred towards him. When she revealed her hatred for Tadashi in front of Fred, it had been like a huge weight had been lifted off of his shoulders. Though she showed her hostility towards him more, she no longer purposefully broke things around the house in order to 'get him to work'. Tadashi hadn't been surprised when Heathcliff told him she'd broken things on purpose, but poor Fred had been a mixture of horrified, heartbroken and furious. Fred would have gone to his father to get her fired if Tadashi hadn't stepped in.
Fred squeezed Tadashi's hand as they passed by her, Fred pointedly ignoring her presence rather than greet her like he did every other worker. Part of Tadashi felt kind of bad, but another remembered the cruel words she'd hurled at him and how close Fred came to firing her that he found himself feeling less bad for Fred giving her the cold shoulder. Once they reached the game room, Fred raced over to throw a movie in while Tadashi and Hiro got settled on the sofa. Hiro got comfortable in Tadashi's lap and Fred jumped down next to Tadashi, snuggling against Tadashi's side and playing the movie.
Tadashi tried to focus on the movie, but he found his mind drifting off, enjoying the feeling of having the two people he loved most in the world curled up against him. Tadashi found himself once again thinking about what it would be like to spend the rest of his life with them. Well maybe not so much Hiro, he would grow up, move out and hopefully start a family of his own, but definitely with Fred….
Someone knocked on the door, startling Tadashi out of his thoughts.
"Come in!" Fred called, reluctantly sitting up.
Heathcliff calmly strode in and informed them, "Master Fredrick, Mr. Hamada could you please follow me? Master Lee would like to speak with you both."
"About what?" Tadashi nervously asked.
"Nothing to worry about," Heathcliff assured. "Now please follow me."
"Stay here and keep watching okay buddy?" Tadashi asked, reluctantly pulling Hiro off of his lap.
"Okay Dashi," Hiro said. Tadashi stood up and followed Heathcliff through the mansion, Fred at his side.
"Hey Heathcliff," Fred said after a minute, "Why are we heading this way? This is towards my room…"
"We're heading the right way," Heathcliff assured, stopping in front of one of the many family portraits that where in the house.
"Um Heathcliff this is a picture…" Fred said, looking as confused as Tadashi felt.
Heathcliff simply pushed the frame causing it to swing inward.
"Wow…" Fred gasped, stepping inside entrance that was revealed. Concerned and slightly confused at the same time, Tadashi reluctantly followed, jumping when the picture slammed shut behind him. Tadashi turned his attention to the strange room he was in, super hero suits lined the walls and a large computer stood at the far end and Mr. Lee was sitting in a chair facing the computer.
"Hello boys," Mr. Lee calmly greeted.
"What is this?" Tadashi asked, glancing over at Fred who looked like Christmas had come again.
"Are you a superhero!" Fred exclaimed, bouncing in his spot.
"Fred that's ridiculous," Tadashi said. "Super Hero's aren't-"
"No Tadashi, they are," Mr. Lee interrupted. "And I am one."
