So, it has been a year. genuinely, I don't have any excuses. It has been one of those things that unfortunately has slipped through my mind and became a rather low priority for me to work on. I am aware that I owe all of you an apology but I don't know how to atone for my laziness to pick this story up and come up with something with substance.

I am aware that the chapter here is rather small but with the extra time I will have the next few days I do hope I can put up some work and bring you guys the content all of you deserve.

That said, I have started my own twitch channel where I do streams (obviously) and switch back and forth between videogames and art. If any of you want to come and say hi, feel free to visit /notayetti

I will be waiting.

Chapter 11: Back to the usual chaos.

GOGO

She slowly opened her eyes as the sun shone through the window besides her bed. Slowly, she moved her arm to look at the time on her wristwatch. As always, like clockwork, 8 AM was flashing to her. The only thing here is, did she change the color of her walls overnight?

Slowly coming to her senses, she tried to move but her legs wouldn't budge. What the? She raised the covers only to see a boy, sleeping soundly besides her. Panic settled in as she almost fell off the bed due to shock, waking the boy in the process.

On the other hand, Hiro knew this was going to happen beforehand but he was not prepared at all. As he opened his eyes and looked at Gogo who in turn was looking at him with slightly angered eyes he panicked, flailing to the ground after going over the edge of the bed.

The door to the room suddenly opened making way for Aunt Cass.

"HIRO! This is the third time, the breakfast is rea…" Aunt Cass burst into the room with her usual flail and radiant smile which completely vanished as she saw the bed empty but she was no deaf and heard something fall to the ground. She knew his nephew was here. "Hiro are you here?" Aunt Cass opened the blinds but was not prepared for this. At all…

Gogo was halfheartedly covering herself with the covers like a deer caught in the lights. Hiro on the other hand was slowly getting up from his wake up fall. Aunt Cass turned to look at Gogo who turned to look at Hiro as he stared at his relative looking for any words to say.

Wait a minute, Aunt Cass? Gogo's brain had caught up now and was looking around. The family pictures, the lady with wavy brown hair staring at her with murderous eyes since she was also wearing Tadashi's clothes. The shiver running down her spine made her look at Hiro who was also looking for a better way to come up with an excuse.

"Uhm… Sorry to interrupt!" Aunt Cass broke the silence. "Hiro, the breakfast is ready, feel free to come down once you two are finished!" She closed the blinds and bolted out of the room.

"NO WAIT! Aunt Cass!" Hiro got up and rushed after his Aunt. "THIS IS NOT WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE!"

Gogo just sat there, blushing furiously at the implications suggested by Aunt Cass, and her imagination running rampart.

HIRO

"Aunt Cass WAIT!" Hiro pursued the woman downstairs to the house kitchen. "This is not what you think!"

"THEN? Tell me what happened right now! Because what I saw tells me that something clearly happened and I am starting to question your relationship with Gogo. You have seriously disappointed me Hi…."

"Stop!" Hiro raised his voice hoping to end such train of thought. "I… uhm… sorry. Didn't mean to raise my voice but I need you to listen to me."

Aunt Cass, noting the serious tone on the boys' voice decided to give him a chance. She pointed towards the table that was centered beside the kitchen. Inviting Hiro to take a seat.

"Talk to me, because I really need to know what happened." Aunt Cass had to give Hiro the best Mother look she could muster in order to pry as much info from the boy as possible. "You know very well that it is my responsibility to care of you and if…" Once again, she was interrupted.

"I know Aunt Cass, I know…" Hiro looked down to the table, finding the piece of wood much more interesting than the fire burning on his Aunt's eyes. "I promise you nothing happened it's just…"

"Just?" She pushed as Hiro took longer than expected to explain himself.

Hiro inhaled and exhaled, gathering his wits. "Gogo called me yesterday at 3AM because she was having trouble to get some sleep and decided to come over." Hiro kept his eyes focused on Aunt Cass, conveying the fact that, his words were true and no other 'mishaps' happened throughout the night.

"I offered her to sleep on Tadashi's bed. She was still struggling to get some shut eye and I offered to sleep with her." Hiro panicked…. "I MEAN, BESIDE HER! Not with her! Because we definitely did not sleep together, I mean… I- We uh…"

HAHAHAHAHA!

"Huh?" Hiro was at the point of sweating but stopped confused.

"It's alright Hiro, I believe you." Aunt Cass said after getting a hold of herself.

"You do? I mean, thanks!"

"Ha! I know when you are lying and when you are saying the truth Hiro." Aunt Cass smiled. "I practically raised you." Aunt Cass extended her hand to hold Hiro's. "So nothing happened?"

"I promise."

GOGO

Meanwhile, our speedster had rushed to get back into her clothes taking advantage that the boy was not in the room. She had clearly went over the line. Although, in her head it was well worth it. A good night sleep was what she needed and, dozing off while Hiro sang to her and simply being held like that was… Gogo was getting fuzzy all over just thinking about it.

She was walking down the stairs when she caught the Hamada's talking about the previous ordeal. Apparently the argument had been settled but she definitely did not want to keep being a bother. Hoping against everything that her passage to the first floor would go unnoticed, Aunt Cass was able to notice her sneaking past them.

"Gogo dear, come here." Gogo gulped. That woman was from another world.

"Yes?" She poked her head from around the corner, Hiro was still sitting near the table while Aunt Cass was standing beside the aisle next to the kitchen.

"Where do you think you are going young lady?" Aunt Cass turned to look at Gogo with a rather stern look. Gogo could swear, just because she doesn't have any superpowers, she could be dead 3 times all over.

"I was just…" She turned to look at Hiro for help but he was… smiling? "What Hiro told me, is that true?"

"Huh?" She hesitated. "Ah, yes! I never meant to go that far with him." Knowing that at this point she was digging her own grave, decided to just bow in front of the older Hamada. "My apologies Ms. Hamada. This will not happen again."

"My, my. No need to be so formal about it Leiko." Aunt Cass rested a hand over the girl's shoulder. "I was just teasing."

Gogo calmed down at the sincere and rather warm smile the woman was sending her way. "Right… Uh, I will be heading out now. My apologies for over stepping my welcome."

"YOU are going nowhere." Hiro stood up immediately and rushed towards Gogo. "After what happened yesterday, er… earlier today, we need to talk."

Frozen, like a deer caught under the headlights, she had no other option. She walked towards the couch that adorned the little family room and dropped her stuff. Meanwhile, Aunt Cass watched intently the interaction between the teenagers. Knowing very well that all the things they have gone through at such a young age, well, it is safe to say that they have grown much faster than your "normal" person has.

"Well, I can sense when my presence is not needed." Aunt Cass interrupted the serious stare contest both teenagers were having.

"Aunt Cass I…"

"Don't worry sweetie." Aunt Cass reached out to Hiro and ruffled his hair. "I'll be downstairs. You two can come down once you have finished." Aunt Cass turned to the stairs but looked at Gogo before going down. "Thank you for your honesty Leiko."

Gogo bowed again "Thank you for everything Ms. Hamada"

"Hahaha, why so serious?" Cass tried to brighten the mood with a glorious smile. "Oh and also, there is breakfast ready in the kitchen."

"Thank you Aunt Cass!" Hiro smiled back.

Hiro was about to start questioning Gogo when suddenly. "AND USE PROTECTION NEXT TIME!"

"AUNT CASS!" Both Gogo and Hiro yelled back after the adult woman disappeared from their sight.

"I swear to god!"

Both Hiro and Gogo took a seat near the table blushing furiously at each other until the younger of the two cleared his head. Gogo definitely did not want to talk about yesterday but an explanation was due after all the mess.

"About yesterday, are you okay?"
