hiro woke up with his face in hid brother's chest. he immediately remembered what happened the day before. his brother looked down at him,
"Hey, Hiro."
hiro met his bother's eyes, "Hi."
"Sleep okay?"
"I guess so."
tadashi went to sit up, but hiro stopped him, "No, don't. I'm comfy."
"Fine." tadashi submitted. hiro snuggled deeper into his brother's chest.
"Hiro?"
"Ya?"
"Are you going to tell aunt Cass about your depression or do you want me to tell her?"
"Why does she have to know?" hiro whined as he sat up.
"Hiro, this is serious. you may need to see a doctor."
"No! Tadashi no doctors, please!" hiro begged. ever sense his parents had died in the hospital, he had been afraid of them.
"Hiro, that's not my choice. if you don't start feeling better after a while i'm taking you. now are you telling her or am I?"
"Can you tell her?"
"Of course i can. i'll tell her tonight, okay?"
"Okay."
a few moments passed.
"Tadashi?"
"Ya?"
"About what baymax said last night, is it true that some people have to be kept n a hospital so they don't try to kill themselves?"
"Ya, some people do. have you ever wanted to commit suicide? be honest with me."
"I think about it sometimes. but I don't want to act on it. I don't want to put you and aunt cass through that. sometimes it just seems like no one cares. I mean, I know deep down that you do, but sometimes I just feel like you don't."
"I know what you mean."
"You do?"
"ya, I feel like that sometimes too."
"Really?"
"Of course. everyone feels like that sometimes. it's completely normal. even if you're not a hormonal teenager."
hiro half snorted half laughed at that comment.
"Ya."
another moment of silence.
"Tadashi?"
"What?"
hiro hesitated for a second, "Never mind. you won't understand."
"Oh, come on. lay it on me. what's on your mind?"
"I just..." hiro sighed, "No, it's stupid. you'll hate me."
"Hiro, you know I could never hate you. come on. tell me. I know you want to."
hiro sighed again, "Do you think there's a reason why i'm here?"
"I can name many reasons, hiro. who's putting this stuff in your head?"
" I don't know. but why am i here?"
"Well, lets see: you are the smartest kid I know, you are intelligent way beyond your years, you can use that big brain of yours for good, you are an amazing person and you deserve way better than what you have, and also...
...
"WHO ELSE WOULD BE MY TACKLING DUMMY?!" tadashi yelled and tackled his younger brother. hiro screamed and tried to get his brother off of him. tadashi finally climbed off of hiro, but hiro pulled him right back into a hug which tadashi gladly returned.
"Don't ever doubt yourself, okay, hiro?"
"Okay."
