Charlie

Disclaimer i own nothing

Hiro remembered saving New York from Sylar, the world from the virus about to be unleashed by Adam Monroe, but he remembered the most important thing he'd done was he went back in time and saved Charlie. He arrived at the diner just before Sylar showed up and teleported him away. On his return trip he found Charlie waiting for him in Japan. They had spent the next several days in bed, finally consummating their relationship. The good times kept coming when the next day she came to him.

"Hiro, guess what darlin" he raised his hand to his chin as if in thought before smiling.

"Your pregnant?" he asked, already knowing the answer when the beautiful Texan started crying. He held her in his arms, stroking her hair while she cried into his shirt. Over the next couple of months they'd made preparations for the new baby, first moving back to Midland, then buying a house, followed by decorating a nursery. Those had been the best months of his life.

"I'm really happy for you and Charlie Hiro" Peter said to him at the wedding reception they had just after returning to the states. It was made up mostly of people from the diner and Hiro's friends and family. Sheriff Davidson walked Charlie down the aisle, Hiro stood at the alter with a reformed Adam Monroe as the best man. After it was all said and done it quieted down, until Charlie was 8 months pregnant.

Hiro had been asleep beside her when Charlie had shaken him awake.

"Honey, mah water broke" he opened his eyes slightly.

"That's nice" before going back to sleep, she heard him faintly mumble to himself.

"No Santa, that Ando's chocolate sushi!" before sitting bolt upright. They had driven to the hospital and Charlie had been taken back, Hiro had been made to wait outside. He had drifted off to sleep at about 4 am and had been startled by the doctor shaking him awake.

"Mr. Nakamura… Mr. Nakamura you can see your wife now" the doctor said after Hiro had awakened. Making his way to where they moved Charlie, he found her holding a tiny blue blanket. Her eyes lit up when he moved toward the bed and kissed her forehead.

"He's so beautiful Hiro" Charlie said as she kissed the baby before passing him to Hiro, who cradled him gently.

"Hello, I'm your daddy" Hiro said, grinning from ear to ear. A soft knock came from the door and Hiro looked to see Adam and Claire Monroe.

"Hello Carp, getting ready to start breastfeeding?" Adam asked, prompting Hiro to blush and Claire to smack Adam's arm. After they left Hiro sat down in the chair beside the bed and drifted off to sleep.

"Hiro" a voice said faintly.

"Hiro" the voice said again, sounding a lot like Ando.

"Hiro" Ando said, shaking Hiro's arm. He rubbed the sleep from his eyes and looked at his best friend.

"Ando, where's Charlie?".

"The waitress, Hiro… Charlie has been dead for 2 years" Ando said, looking confused. Hiro sat and felt the emotions well up until he hung his head and cried into his hands as Ando held him.

End.
