"Hey, what are you doing Friday?" June asked from the other end of the phone.
Hiro considered lying, but decided against it. "I was thinking of catching a bot fight."
"Bot fighting? I thought you were done with that." Consern crept into her voice.
"That's how we meet in the first place." Hiro laughed. "Besides it was just an idea. What did you have in mind?"
"There's a live show for Rocky Horror and I was wondering if you wanted to come."
"A live show? How does that work? Isn't Tim Curry like in his 70's?"
"Hey, age doesn't reduce the greatness of Tim Curry. And it's like a fan made production. People dress up and dance along. It's really fun." June explained.
"Would I have to dress up?" He asked.
"Well of course."
"Who are you going as?"
"Columbia. Alex is Frank and Lizzy is Magenta. You wanna be Eddy or Rocky?"
"Defiantly Eddy." Hiro said bluntly.
"Come on. You would look cute in gold booty shorts." June teased.
Hiro laughed at the thought of himself in nothing but gold underwear. "I think Eddy is more my style."
"I'll get Alex to let you borrow her leather vest."
"Sounds like a plan."
"Dinners ready." Aunt Cass called from the kitchen.
"I gotta go. See you Friday." Hiro said, sad that he had to hang up.
"See you then."
The Hamada family sat at the dinner table, quietly eating their meal. Aunt Cass was the first one to break the silence. "So who were you on the Phone with?" She asked her youngest nephew.
"June. She wanted me to see a show with her Friday."
"What kind of show?" Tadashi joined in.
"It's a live thing for Rocky Horror." Hiro didn't want to give away too many details. Explaining the plot of June's favorite movie was not what he wanted to do during dinner. "Alex and Lizzy are going too."
"Who are Alex and Lizzy?" Aunt Cass questioned Hiro.
"Their June's friends."
"You've been spending a lot of time with June." Aunt Cass said. "Maybe you should hangout with your Brother this weekend."
"I already promised June I would go. And besides I want to see it." Hiro was preparing for a debate.
"Well why don't I go with you guys." Tadashi suggested. "I want to meet all of your friends."
"That's a great idea! You and Tadashi can take the truck so you're not-"
"NO!" Hiro interrupted. His brother and aunt gave him confused looks. "It's just... It's a musical and I don't think you'll like it, that's all." The last thing Hiro wanted was to see a play about transvestites with Tadashi.
"I don't mind musicals." Tadashi said, still giving his brother a concerned look.
"Well...Let me ask June." He sighed.
After Dinner Hiro texted his friend and to his dismay, she said yes. For the next day and a half Tadashi kept asking questions about the show and every time Hiro changed the subject. If he was going to be grounded for watching inappropriate movies he might as well have fun totally blind siding his brother.
Friday came around and Hiro was just about to leave for the show when he remembered about the bot fight. He bit his lip and weighed his options. Hiro hated to admit it, but he missed the late nights in the dirty ally's. The teen slid Mega bot into his backpack and went downstairs.
The Hamada brothers left in their aunts truck and arrived at the theater. Hiro was about to call June at ask where she was, but he heard a familiar voice shout his name.
"HIRO! TADASHI!" She jumped up and waved before shuffling over to the brothers. He turned to see his friend and his jaw dropped. June had on the shortest shorts Hiro has ever seen, and underneath were black fishnets. On top she wore a sparkly corset and a gold blazer. June made her way over to the boys while Hiro's mind wandered to more inappropriate thoughts as he watched his friend stumble a bit in her heels. "Alex and Lizzy have our place in line, and here's the vest." She handed the youngest Hamada a wad of black leather.
The trio walked up the line as Tadashi whispered in his brothers ear. "Why the hell is she dressed like a prostitute?"
"You'll see soon enough."
Hiro introduced his brother to Alex and Lizzy while they waited to enter the theater. Lizzy was dressed like a French maid with her hair a wild mess, and Alex had on a similar outfit to June's only all black.
The group got in their places and the show started. Tadashi seemed uncomfortable by the patrons costumes, but he couldn't find the connection to the show...Until Frank showed up. Everyone sang, danced, and laughed at Tadashi's facial expressions through out the show. Once it was over the crowd cleared out and the girls went into the bathroom and changed out of their costumes.
"Since when do you watch movies like that?" Tadashi asked.
"Since I met June." Hiro said as his friends exited the building and made their way over to them.
"Well me and Lizzy are going to head home, see you Hiro." Alex said as she and Lizzy walked down the street.
"We should get going too." Tadashi said.
"Actually I wanted to go back to June's for a bit." Hiro threw his arm around the brunet. "I'll be back by midnight."
"Make it 11:30."
sorry it took so long, I had like half of it done and then I decided to change the entire thing.
