lol so i dunno if this classifies as an awkward moment or not. I mean it definitely has its awkwardness, but i guess it can also be labeled as a bit of a fluff between Tadashi and Honey lemon as well X3
Anyway thanks for everyone's kind words and reviews,they mean so much to me. you really have no idea =)
oh one last thing...i don't wanna change the rating because of one story in a entire series, so i'm just gonna warn yall and say there suggestive themes n such in this chapter.
Tadashi grumbled to himself as he attempted to clean up his train wreck of a lab at SFIT. Blueprints and paperwork scattered the floor, equipment was sprawled out everywhere and the leftover takeout bags from his late night cram sessions were really starting to smell something awful. Needless to say with Hamada being the obnoxious clean freak that he was, the mess truly bugged him to the core.
He had only been at it for a mere fifteen minutes or so, and already the young robotics student let out a tired huff, leaning his broom against the wall before taking a moment before examining the digital clock on his desk. It was about 1:00 in the afternoon, and he let out another sigh as his stomach rumbled with hunger. The others had gone to lunch, and had kindly offered for him to join, but, not wanting to procrastinate any longer Tadashi decided to stay behind and clean up.
Man did he seriously regret that decision.
"Oh, quite you." He scolded his gut as it made yet another rambunctious growl, the noises practically echoing in the stillness of the room. If he didn't get something to eat soon he was afraid his stomach was going to start digesting itself.
Just then, he heard a gentle knock on the sliding glass door of his laboratory, and moments later a tall, familiar blonde entered, greasy looking paper bag in hand.
"Hey," she giggled, closing the door behind her, "am I interrupting something?"
Tadashi gave a kind smile, blush slightly creeping to his cheeks. "Oh hey Honey Lemon," he greeted, nervously running the back of his neck, "no, I was just uh… talking to myself."
"So I see." She chuckled, green eyes shimmering with amusement.
Tadashi swallowed hard, repositioning the cap on his head, a nervous habit that he found himself doing more and more.
"I, uh, wasn't expecting you guys back so soon. Where are the others?"
"Oh no, it's just me," Honey said with a shy smile of her own, "I figured I'd bring you something back, maybe help you around the lab? You know if that's ok with you…"
"Yeah of course!" he exclaimed, clearing his throat as he realized he sounded WAY too excited, "I mean, um, yeah sure. Thanks." Tadashi mentally swore at himself. Smooth Hamada. Real smooth. He hated that he always managed to make himself look like an idiot in front honey lemon. Which seemed to rather frequently these past couple weeks. There was just something about her presence that made him lose it. Whether it was her smile, her laugh, the way her hair bounced as she skipped around the lab…
Honey lemon chuckled lightly, and Tadashi felt the heat on his face once more as he realized he was staring. "Sooo," he started, desperate to change the subject, "what's in the bag?"
Honey let a coy smile spread her lips, "oh nothing… just a special treat from Mrs. Haru's…"
Tadashi's eyes pretty much sparkled with excitement. "No way… tell me it's not-"
"A Bánh mì sandwich with extra jalapenos? Yes, yes it is." The blonde tossed the bag to her friend, who gratefully caught it, digging into its contents faster than she's ever seen him do anything before.
"You Honey lemon," Tadashi began, speaking through gulps of his meal, "are truly an angel in disguise."
The blonde chuckled, and took a seat on the spare chair before next to him before happily digging into her own lunch.
The two science students ate and talked for the better part of half an hour, and Tadashi couldn't help the ongoing grin that kept creeping onto his features. He enjoyed this. The two hardly ever had any time to be alone, what with Go-Go and Wasabi always working on their own projects in the lab, and Fred just being there to amuse people. Not that he didn't enjoy the company of his other friends, but it was nice to have this one on one time with honey, Laughing and talking like they used to when they first met in high school.
"So," Honey Lemon started, standing from her seat and clapping her hands together in determination as she swallowed the last of her food. "When do you want to start on this mess of a lab of yours, Hamada?"
Tadashi leaned back in his chair, letting an exasperated groan escape him. "Aw, come on can't it wait a little longer? You know they say that you should wait at least an hour after eating before heavy cleaning..."
The chemistry student snorted, repositioning her slightly tilted pink glasses. "You and I both know that's not true silly. Now come on! If we work together we can get this place cleaned up before the guys get back!"
Letting out a defeated sigh, Tadashi crumbled his sandwich wrapper into a ball and threw it across the room, obviously aiming to have it land in the waste bend, however it managed to land on the ground a few feet away from it.
Honey lemon tried to suppress a laugh, though much like Tidashi's shot, ultimately failed. "I can't believe you missed that."
"Hey! Gimme a break, after all I'm a nerd not an athlete…"
The girl glared playfully at him and grabbed a nearby paper, crumbling it up before taking a shot toward the same exact trash bin, and sure enough, it made it into the basket without a problem. She gave Tadashi a smirk, and crossed her arms over her chest, her face practically beaming with pride from her little win.
Tadashi bit the inside of his cheek, his male ego slightly depleting. "Beat by a girl in 6 inch heels… I really need to step up my game."
"Oh, hush! Now come on, times ticking."
And with that, the two SFIT students began rummaging through old pieces of paper, books and equipment, easily dividing the 'keep' items from 'toss' items. They worked easily together, like a well-oiled machine, never clashing or bumping into each other, but merely moving and dodging out the others way. Even if it wasn't anything glamorous , honey and Tadashi like spending this moment together, it was, well, nice to say the least.
"I think we're pretty much done!" Honey exclaimed excitedly, placing her hands on her narrow hips as she proudly over looked her friend's now much cleaner laboratory.
Tadashi smiled at her, crossing his arms contently as rested against the wall. "Yep, it looks good. Thanks again Honey. For everything."
She grinned cheekily, sliding a stray strain of hair behind her ear. "I-it's no problem." She stammered, Tadashi's smile suddenly scrambling her brain. "What are friends for?"
Hamada suddenly found his face falling a slightly. Friends. He thought sourly. Sure he enjoyed their companionship. A lot actually. But he couldn't help it when his thoughts would wander to that dangerous part of his mind, the 'what if we were more than that part'. He knew he shouldn't think about such things, after all he enjoyed what he had going on with honey lemon. They worked great together, and there was no point in ruining a great relationship because he decided to take it too far…
"Tadashi? You okay?"
"Hmm?" the robotic genius hummed, slowly coming out of his thoughts. "Oh, uh, y-yeah, I'm great! S-sorry! It's just…"
"Just what?" honey questioned, concern in her voice.
"N-nothing." He reassured, although his words came out more rushed than intended, "I-it's nothing, I'm fine."
"Oh ok..." Honey glanced down the tile floor, looking slightly hurt as she fiddled with the ends of her hair. He always did this. They would be laughing, and having a good time, then suddenly he would act all weird and distant. Maybe she was trying to hard? Being too clingy? Honey tried to shake the negative thoughts from her mind, though they stood there, front and center not going anywhere. "You know…" she began slowly, "Maybe… maybe I should just get going…"
Nice. Real nice genius! Tadashi mentally slapped himself for being such an insensitive idiot. He took a step forward, aiming to reassure his friend when a spare blueprint managed to slide right under his foot, causing the poor man to fall headfirst into the girl. They landed on the floor with an oomph, and Tadashi groaned, immediately feeling his face flush as his body pressed firmly against honey's tiny frame, her legs intertwined between his own. "Oh god, I-I'm so sorry!" he stammered pathetically.
"It's fine," she replied, a blush creeping from her cheeks to her ears. "You're just um… kind of crushing my pancreas…"
Tadashi swallowed thickly, and tried to hoist himself up, though he only managed to get so far before slamming his head against the edge of his desk table.
"Owwww!" He groaned, feeling along the back of his head. Even though his thick head of hair and infamous baseball cap, it hurt like a mother.
Just then, the sound of rubber and air was heard, and Tadashi's pupils shrunk in fear.
"Oh no…"
"Hello." A calm voice sounded, and Tadashi looked up to see his project he's spent the past 6 months on, as well as the sole reason he had his lab in such a mess in the first place, standing before him, in his fluffy, marshmallow-y glory. "I am Baymax, your personal health care companion. I was alerted by the sound of distress, on a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?"
"Wow, well I see you got Baymax up and working," Honey said cheerfully, eyeing at the upside down looking robot, and trying to ease the horrible awkwardness. Tadashi looked down at her, suddenly unable to move as his dark eyes focused on Honey Lemon's small frame. He wasn't going to lie… this was definitely a view he could get used to, and as their bodies continued to press against each other, he could only pray that that certain things that happen to the male anatomy did not happen.
he knew he shouldn't of worn tight pants today.
"Um," he started, focusing back on the robot, "zero Baymax, we're fine-"
"I will scan you for further injuries."
"Wait, no! Don't-"
"Scan complete."
"unbelievable." Why? Why me? Tadashi groaned preparing himself for the slur of medical diagnostics that were about to be flung his way.
"I do not see any significant physical injuries, although the neurochemical levels in your brain indicate that you are very excited. Diagnoses: arousal."
Oh my god…
"My scanners always picked up extreme blood flow in your face as well as to your-"
"Okay! Thank you Baymax!" Tadashi all but shouted at the robotic nurse. "You can shut off now!"
"You programmed me so that I cannot deactivate until you have said you are satisfied with your care. Are you satisfied?"
"Yes, Yes, Yes! I swear I've never been more satisfied in my entire life! Please for the love of all that is holy just deactivate!"
The big robot blinked slowly, but otherwise complied with his orders and quickly shrunk down into his charging station.
Tadashi, feeling more embarrassed than he had in his entire life, positioned his cap to hide his hideously red face. When he was little, he always had the desired to have to power to become invisible like the superheroes he saw on TV. That dream of course died as he got older, but he was pretty sure he had wished harder for that ability at this moment than he had in his entire childhood.
"I'm…I'm really sorry about that." he apologized shyly.
Honey lemon, who had stayed rather quiet during the whole ordeal removed Tadashi's cap, using her delicate hand to tilt his head, forcefully making him look at her.
"Its fine Tadashi," she said sincerely, giving him a reassuring smile. "Actually…as embarrassing as this is, I'm kind of glad this happened. I was starting to think I didn't really like me…"
Tadashi's eyes widened, and the blush finally seemed to fad from his cheeks. "Wait, what? Why would you say that?"
Honey raised an eyebrow at the boy, and managed to cross her arms even given the little space she had to do so. "Well for starters whenever we are alone together for more than a few hours, you always get weird and jittery. You always avoid my gaze and when we engage in conversation you always manage to doze off to who knows where."
"I...I'm sorry," Tadashi apologized for the umpteenth time as he cleared his throat, "trust me I don't do those things because I don't like you it's actually because…well because I do. Like, a lot. I just…I mean what we have is…I'm just weird honey lemon." He finished lamely.
The girl snickered lightly, "so I see."
The robotic engineer shared a soft smile before finally mustering the strength to hoist himself up, and extend a helping hand to the poor blonde.
Honey lemon looked up at him, and took his hand into her own, grasping, but not letting him help her up just yet. "So you really meant all that stuff? You really like me that way?"
Tadashi hesitated at first, but slowly nodded, rubbing the back of his neck with his free hand.
That was all she needed. Just then, Tadashi felt himself being pulled back to ground, lips suddenly pressed tightly against honey lemons delicate and slightly glossed ones. The boy's eyes were wide, pure shock swimming through them, but as the girl beneath him depend her affections, he found his eyes slowly drooping, returning with his own passionate kisses.
After what seemed like eternity, Honey lemon stopped, practically gasping for air as she gently eased her lips way. "I've been waiting forever to hear you say that Hamada." She coed, tracing a perfectly manicured finger onto his lip.
Tadashi gave a big cheesy grin before returning his lips to hers once more, unable to contain just how excited he was. In fact the two were so engrossed in the moment, they hadn't even heard the slam of the lab door being closed, or the hurried footsteps of their friends until it was too late.
"duuudes, guess who brought back brownies from that righteous bakery!" Fred's voice was the first to be heard, and Tadashi looked up just in enough time to see his other three friend's shadows as they stood behind the hazy frame door of his section of the lab. Nor Tadahsi or honey had enough time to regain their composer, for within moments there they stood, Wasabi, Fred and Gogo, a bag full of treats in hand and cheesy grins plastered on their faces. The other two college students position was definitely more that questionable, with them being on the floor and Honey's legs practically wrapped around Tadashi's waist, it would seem like they were up to much more than a simple make out session.
"Oh uh, hey guys!" Tadashi exclaimed, his voice cracking like a pubescent teenager. "I swear this isn't what it looks like." the robotics nerd cringed as their friends amused smiles didn't waver, and Honey pretty much buried her face in his shirt, as if the action would make her disappear from everyone's view.
The room pretty much erupted with laughter. "Well we were just coming by to drop some of this epic brownies off to you," it was GoGo who spoke, an insane smirk on her face, "but it would seem like Tadashi here has more of a taste for cookie instead."
Hamada's eyes widened, and he felt like all the blood in his body was rushing to his cheeks. "Gogo!" he hissed through clenched teeth, trying to ignore the heat he felt in his face.
The room once again filled with laughter, not giggles or chuckles, but full flown from the gut laughter that seemed to shake the entire room. So with a few last winks, whistles, and cat calls, Tadashi finally managed to shoo his pestering friends out of his lab, closing and locking the door behind him.
Tadashi sighed, turning to his blond partner in make out crime who was sitting on his desk, head buried in her hands.
"Were never going to live this down are we?"
"Never."
