"You know, drinking too much coffee can have many negative long-term effects on your body" Honey said in her best as-a-matter-of-fact tone. Tadashi looked up at her from his notes with a smirk on his face. Honey's cheeks began to feel warm.
"Oh, is that so? Well then you're not benefiting me much by providing the coffee" Tadashi glanced at the Styrofoam cups in her hands. Honey laughed a bit and handed Tadashi his coffee.
"What if I told you it's just hot water with brown food dye?" She teased, reclining herself on his desk.
"Well then I'd have to kill you" Tadashi winked and sipped his drink. A shot of electricity surged through her body. She looked away from him and down at his blueprints.
"How's he coming along?" She asked, moving the papers towards her so she could get a better look. Honey loved looking at Tadashi's sketches, he was really quite good. She always said if he ever decided that science wasn't for him, he'd make a great living as an artist.
"Fine, I guess" Tadashi sighed "The prints are the easiest part. It's building and programming him that's going to be tough" He moved himself next to Honey Lemon, their elbows practically touching. He looked down at his work and inspected them carefully. Honey studied Tadashi's face, as if he were a blueprint and took small mental notes of what she saw. Tadashi glanced over at Honey Lemon and raised an eyebrow.
"Honey?" He asked softly.
"Huh? Oh! Sorry, I, Uh.." She tried to think of an excuse but words were failing her. "You have a scar," She said "Right there" Her thumb lightly grazed the spot over Tadashi's left eyebrow, where a small white scar in the shape of a check-mark was. Everything was still for a few seconds.
"Oh.. Yeah, Hiro—My little brother, um, made a rocket and it got out of control. Hit me right in the face." Tadashi's gaze was still on Honey Lemon, who smiled a bit and then looked back at the blueprints. Another few seconds of silence.
"I'd like to meet your brother sometime" Honey Lemon said quietly.
"I'd like for you too meet him too."
