Big Hero 6: The Art Thieves

Chapter 29: How To Train Your Hiro

I wake up to a text from my mum. I try to ignore it and go back to sleep, but I realise it just won't happen. I get out of bed and read the text as I head down the stairs. I walk into the kitchen and pat Kiba as he starts barking. I grab my jacket and walk out the door and to the café. I walk in and see Hiro and Tadashi sitting in there, "Good morning." They wave back, and Hiro tries to hide a cough.

"You okay Hiro? That doesn't sound good." I say looking worriedly at him

"Yeah, just a cough. I'm fine." Hiro replies.

I nod in acknowledgement and walk behind the counter to help Aunt Cass take orders. After few minutes, Hiro walks over to give me a hand taking orders and serving customers. When we get to the last order, I look at Hiro and realised he looked extremely pale. "Are you sure you're okay? You look a little pale."

I try to feel his forehead, only for him to push my hand away, "I'm fine. It's all good." I roll my eyes and we go back to serving customers.

After a while, Hiro tries to hide another cough, "Hiro, I think you are coming down with a cold. You should go up and get some rest."

Hiro nods and I pat him on his head on the way, I bit my lip to keep from laughing at the look on his face, 'I hope that he gets better soon, or I am going to have to tell Aunt Cass.' I think to myself.

Tadashi walks into the kitchen, "Come on, I'll give you a hand. Hiro will be fine, don't worry."

Tadashi and I get back to work, talking to customers and making sure that everything was clean when Hiro came down again. "If you don't rest, you're going to get worse Hiro."

"But I am so bored up there. There is nothing to do. Can't I hang with you?"

I shake my head, "No. After my shift, I will come and hang with you for a bit, yeah?"

Hiro sigs and walks back upstairs, mumbling to himself, "Why is she being so mean to me? Meant to be my big sis. I'm not even that sick." His mumbling is interrupted by a sneeze, "It's so cold."

When my shift is over, Tadashi and I make sure that the café is cleaned and tidy for Aunt Cass. I walk upstairs to the living room and toss a blanket at Hiro before sitting down with him, "How about we watch a movie? If you fall asleep, it's all good." Hiro nods and groans before tossing the blanket off himself. "Look, I know that you are as impatient as a four-year-old, but I just want you to feel better." I get up and put on a movie, ignoring Hiro's suggestions, he was just going to be asleep within half an hour, he go no say.

Hiro tries to hide a yawn as I put the movie in the player and sit down. After a while of watching the movie, Hiro speaks up, "So, toothless is a 'night-fury'. He is pretty cool. I think I want a toothless."

I giggle in reply. After a little while, I notice Hiro getting more and more tired, struggling to stay awake. He falls asleep so I get up, and walk down to the café and see Aunt Cass standing there. She looks up at me as I enter the kitchen, "Is he alright?"

"Yeah. But I think he is running a temperature. You may want to check on him at some point."

Aunt Cass nods and heads up the stairs. "So, how did you manage to calm Hiro down?"

"I just treated him like a kid, no on likes being sick, and when they are, they like to be taken care of." I said looking at him.

Tadashi smiles and we chat for a little while before Aunt Cass comes down saying, "Well, he has a small cold, he will be fine in a few days. He will still need some cold medicine though." I nod in reply, before realising Aunt Cass wasn't finished. "Oh, Sakura, I wondering, would you be alright to look after Hiro and work your shifts?"

"Sure, it shouldn't be too hard. I think I can handle it." I grin at the smile at Aunt Cass is giving me, only to be distracted by my phone going off. I look at it and see that it's from my mum, "My mum and dad will be back later tonight. I can't wait to spend more time with them, I missed them while they were away."

Tadashi sighs in a sad way, looking up at me, "I really wanted you to spend the night here,"

I turn to hide my blush, "Maybe in a couple of days, and only id Aunt Cass is okay with it."

"Sure," Aunt Cass says "It will be fun to have you over again." I grin at them and say good bye, heading home to get dinner ready for me and my parents.

Tadashi walks up the stairs and looks at Hiro, "Tell me little bro, did you do this just to get closer to Sakura?"

Hiro smirks in reply, "Well, maybe. But its you that drives she drives you crackers. Lets see how long you can handle having her ignore you for me."

Tadashi blushes as they head to their room. Tadashi sighs and says, "I just hope she doesn't get sick." Hiro let's out a laugh and says, "That's not a bad idea. Thanks, big bro." He falls asleep as Tadashi gets into his pyjamas. He looks over at his bear and says, "Well, I hope that Hiro gets better and Sakura takes good care of him, without her getting sick." Then turns off the light and falls asleep.
