Hiro's Perspective
~~~~~Time Skip~~~~~
It was pitch black outside, and once again I was flying over the desert back to Suki's prison under the sand; this time without Tadashi and a whole lot of fire power strapped to Baymax. Rewinding to about 12 hours prior, I left Suki after being debriefed with her plan, and after disposing of the two unconscious bodyguards outside the lab. While taking Tadashi back home, I relay the plan to him and he helps me prepare everything to accomplish our side - about a hundred times easier than Suki's half of the plan. When we realize that we have no way of getting all of our supplies out to the desert with both of us on Baymax's back, Tadashi easily concedes, and follows his act from earlier in the day, acting oddly calm and removed from the situation.
Which drove me mad of course. I mean, he's known Suki so much longer than I have, and yet he just says, "I believe in you, Hiro." smacks me on the back, and now here I am with enough explosives strapped on Baymax to destroy an underground laboratory through the old fire and brimstone method.
Arriving at the deserted spot for the third time in about 24 hours at exactly midnight, Baymax and I don't even hesitate and drop the loads of homemade incendiary bombs in three different areas as if we were just dropping eggs onto the pavement to see what would happen. As the last bomb drops and the first ignites on the ground below us, a feeling of dread comes over me and I react immediately.
"Baymax, scan for Suki!" I scream as the next bomb also ignites below us and a fire starts to spread across the desert.
"Suki is not in the woods as she said she would be. Suki's DNA match is still in the laboratory, but alive." Baymax replies, confirming my dread.
Suki hadn't left the lab yet, and I was stupid enough to just drop 90 pounds of Combined Effects Munition bombs (I just googled some scary bombs and this one seemed intense.) meant to destroy everything they come into contact through explosives and fire.
"Baymax, take us in. I am not losing someone else important to me in a fire." I tell him, and he dives straight through the rising flames and sonic punch straight into the lab.
Lo and behold, Suki is there, unconscious and on the ground, the super computer still flashing streams of code being deleted. Not wanting to compromise Suki's safety for the deletion of all the code, I scoop her off the ground before Baymax even lands, and fly out.
"Baymax, faster!" I shout, knowing that at any moment the fire would reach the heart of the lab and not only suck all the oxygen out through the fire, but explode the super computer and the pressure tanks at the same time.
We reach a height of about 50 feet and the heat from the fire just begins to dull before an explosion throws us from the sky and we're spiraling and tumbling out of the sky. I can make out pieces of debris from the lab shooting past us, almost taking out Baymax's thrusters as I'm thrown off his back.
I grab onto Suki and scream as we fall out of the sky. Baymax dives toward us and grabs us out of the way of a giant piece of concrete flying straight at us. When I had finally settled on Baymax's back with Suki nestled in between us, I finally breathe out a sigh of relief and let Baymax guide us back home.
Suki's Perspective
I hear a boom. Then two more consecutive ones from different directions. Which means Hiro's thrown the bombs. And of course, that means he didn't scan the area around the lab to know that I'm still in it. Perfect. The programming for the drones still hadn't been completely deleted yet, and I was still waiting for the last couple lines to be destroyed but apparently I wasn't going to get the chance to completely eliminate their trace. I run towards the door, not waiting for the program to delete, but the ceiling starts to cave. Debris falling on my head and dust obscuring my vision, a gigantic piece of concrete rams into my head and the last thing I can remember is thinking that I should have kissed Hiro when I had the chance and then thinking how awkward that would have been.
~~~~~Time Skip~~~~~
When I wake up in a strange place for the second time in about three days with every muscle still sore and my head throbbing, I groan in frustration. However this time, I feel soft bedding underneath me and when I open my eyes I see a normal dry wall ceiling and wall to wall bookshelves on my left. I hear people scrambling up a set of stairs and then finally see Hiro and Tadashi pushing a screen, while also trying to push each other, out of the way.
Tadashi wins with his superhuman robot strength and pounces onto me on the bed. "YOU'RE ALIVE! I THOUGHT YOU COULD HAVE DIED, BUT YOU'RE ALIVE!" He shouts, burying his head into my shoulder.
"Whoa, Tadashi, calm down and shut up. You're hurting my head." I tell him, and hit him on his left side.
"I'm just so glad you're still alive." He says, letting go of me from his bear hug to grab my shoulders, and then smacking me on my right arm.
"Ow! What was that for?! I'm injured!" I whine.
"That was so dangerous! We should have just taken you out in the beginning and destroyed the lab with the bombs later! What were you thinking?!" He chastises, and then hugs me once more. Not letting me reply to his rapidly changing emotions, he continues, "I know. I know you needed to destroy the program, but seriously, you're so lucky that you only have a concussion. The last time one of the three of us was in a fire, four years of surgery was involved." he says as if he wasn't the cyborg in the room, before finally letting me go and getting off the bed.
"I was worried, ok? He threatened me, well he threatened you, and I just wanted to go back home." I tell him, and then smile, "But thanks for coming to help me."
Tadashi smiles back and then my stomach screams out in protest from not being fed for over 48 hours. "I'll go make some food! Stay put, Suki, I'm glad you weren't hurt, but you have a pretty severe concussion." Tadashi says, and I'm about to protest him going anywhere near a kitchen, but then Hiro steps up in front of Tadashi and lets him run downstairs to wreak havoc.
I look at him and see his face is squished up in a funny way and ask, "What's up?" as casually as possible.
He sits down on the bed in response, and grabs my hand. Moving my eyes back and forth from his face to our touching hands, I resist the urge to move, although I feel like squirming. In the end, I settle with just screaming internally.
"I'm so, so sorry, Suki." Hiro says, and I glance behind me to make sure he was talking to the right person. Okay, so it wasn't exactly what I expected him to say, but I stay silent and hope that he'll explain himself. Following my predictions, Hiro opens his mouth again and says, "I should have scanned for you first. I should have gotten you out first, but I just went ahead and threw the bombs and then you could have gotten hurt." I open my mouth to interject, but Hiro keeps on going, so I just sit and listen. "I'm also sorry about our whole fight with Tadashi. I didn't even ask you anything and just assumed a lot of things. I was just so confused from seeing him alive and then I lashed out against you when you did nothing wrong."
"Oh..." is all I can reply with. When did we fight again? It seemed like an eternity ago when that had happened.
Hiro suddenly gets up and throws his hands into the air, "I know it'll be hard for you to forgive me, but I've really been repenting over my actions and honestly, most of the things I said were just in the moment. I really-"
And then I feel the need to interrupt him because I really just did not understand what was happening. "Wait, what are you talking about?"I ask, and I see his arms slowly fall down to his sides and he stares at me like I had grown a second head.
"What do you mean, what? I'm apologizing to you because I messed up so many times, and I understand that you won't accept my apology, so I'm trying to convince you." he says, almost too fast and it takes me a bit to put everything he's saying together.
"But I never said I didn't accept your apology?" I ask, pretty sure that even with my concussion I remembered the past three minutes of conversation.
"Oh..." Hiro says this time, sitting back down on the bed.
"So, we're good? I accept your apology, so we can be friends again, right?" I ask, needing to have someone to use words to affirm our situation.
"Well..." Hiro starts, which immediately made me think he was going to reject me, "I was kind of hoping, that after you accepted my apology that we could be something more..." Hiro continues, leaning in towards me. There's a pause in our conversation and I lean a little towards him too, realizing that this could actually, totally go the right way.
"More...what?" I hedge. I may have been in social solitude for the past four years, but I think I got this hint.
"More...than..." Hiro says, leaning in even closer until our noses are touching and I can feel our breaths mingling in the inch between us. "Just..." he continues and begins to close his eyes.
"But Professor Hamada," I interrupt our moment loudly, seeing his eyes fly open in shock and he automatically backs away to see me holding in my laughter and smirk behind my hands.
He drops his head into his hands and groans, "I completely forgot..."
I shake my head in mock disapproval and say, "Tsk, tsk. We're only a week into class and you were already thinking of having a relationship with your student." I get out from under the covers and move closer to where he's sitting on the bed while his head is still in his hands.
"Stop, alright, I get it..." Hiro groans, lifting up his head from his hands and I throw my arms on top of his shoulders so that I lean my whole body weight into his. Surprising him and making him forget everything he was going to say.
"But..." I sing, "If you can wait maybe a year, and - oh I don't know - get to know me for more than a week; I can probably graduate in that time and consider going out with you." Before I plant my mouth on top of his.
Surprised, Hiro kind of freezes underneath me before relaxing his mouth and kissing me back, causing me to smile. He breaks our brief kiss and gently pulls us apart so that he can look into my eyes. "Suki, how are you going to graduate in a year?" Of course that's the first thing he thinks about.
Rolling my eyes I say, "Well,..." and stand up to head towards the stairs, "That means I'll just have to work super hard. No distractions, and no boyfriends to annoy me." I say, sticking my tongue out at Hiro.
He stands up beside me and grabs me into a long kiss, practically holding me up as I lose breath and all capability to think right. When we finally pull apart he smirks, "Well, I'm not your boyfriend right now, and I don't think that counts as annoying."
"Hmmm..." I hum and smile up at him, completely in love with how I fit into his arms and how he looks at me like I'm the only girl in the world. "I guess it was alright." I say, and turn to go down the stairs to save the kitchen and all the food from Tadashi's cooking.
~~~FIN~~~
So this is the end! I hope you guys liked it! I know the ending was a bit rushed and probably really awkward, but please feel free to give me some tips and critiques for my first piece!
