A small beam of light shot through the single window of Hiro's dorm, landing on the eyes of the black haired parasite. His eyes fluttered open and he tried to roll over to shield himself from the light. After spending so many years in the birdcage, he was used to being woken up this way. Not much had changed in his morning routine since he had been assigned this room so many years ago. However, since he was so used to his routine Hiro had completely forgotten about the half breed klaxosaur sharing his room with him, who was currently blocking him from rolling over.

Sitting up, Hiro recalled the discussion with Ichigo from the previous night. 02 had been assigned to stay with Hiro, as he was the only one without a partner sharing his room, meaning he had an extra bed. This begged the question, why was 02 in his bed? He knew that when he had fallen asleep they were in separate beds, and he was also sure that 02 had fallen asleep before him, which he had previously confirmed the night before by her loud snores.

Breaking his thoughts and looking down at 02, Hiro realized how close they were, as a twin bed didn't give much room for seperation. He started staring at the pink haired girl, realizing how peaceful and cute she looked while she was sleeping. His mind wandered to the days before, all their previous encounters, and the times he was able to pilot Strelitzia. He loved thinking about those times, and he was starting to imagine himself falling in love with the girl who made it possible.

Hiro blushed as he realized what he had just thought, and he started to rise out of bed to distract himself by getting ready. Before he could slip out from under the covers however, he felt a soft hand grabbing the back of his pajama shirt.

"Darling…I'll be cold" 02 groaned. "Why are you getting up?"

Hiro could tell by her tone of voice that 02 was barely awake, and not happy with the fact that her main source of heat was trying to escape.

"We have to get up, it's morning and we'll be expected in the commons for breakfast" Hiro replied.

"Five more minutes" 02 yanked Hiro backwards into her, wrapping her arms around him in a hug.

Blushing due to their proximity, Hiro tried to wiggle out with little success. He was surprised at how tight her grip was, and even more surprised when he realized that 02 was still half asleep, barely aware of what she was doing. He tried to grab 02's hands and break her grip, but every time he would grab one she would slip right out and tighten her grip once more. Occasionally she would run her tongue up the back of Hiro's neck, making him yelp and weaken whatever grip he held previously.

"We have to get up or we'll be late, Futoshi will eat all our food again" Hiro tried to reason with her, experiencing little success.

"Darling… I just want to lay with you forever" 02 was unhappy with her partners resistance to sleeping in, and she doubled down on her request. "Give me just 5 more minutes".

While saying this 02 flipped Hiro onto his other side so that the two were now chest-to-chest facing one another. Hiro could see that 02 was now mostly awake, and she seemed to be enjoying playing with her partner like this.

Hiro did not let up however, and he was right back to struggling for escape. He was grabbing at 02's hands again, wiggling his hips and arching his back. 02 was smiling widely as she held onto the wiggling parasite. Whenever he came too close to getting away she would nibble onto his ear, and all forms of resistance would melt away.

Despite the fact she was enjoying herself, 02 still wanted more time to peacefully rest before a busy day, and she prepared the attack she knew would work.

"Darllliiinngg, I'm only going to say it one more time" 02 said while squeezing Hiro.

Hiro stopped wiggling to listen to his partner speak, and once he stopped struggling he noticed 02's hand come to the back of his head.

"Five. More. Minutes"

Before he knew what was happening he was pulled into a kiss. His head rushed as he closed his eyes leaning into his partner, kissing back. However, as soon as it had begun, it was over, and he found himself defeated and staring at 02.

"Fine, five more minutes" Hiro finally conceded, and he began to lean into 02's lips once again.
