CHAPTER 2

Today was the first day of filming. Oh great. Hiro walked into the studio with a slight headache, who knew being a star in an upcoming movie was going to be a pain in the ass? Ass soon as he stepped in, three people whisked him away quickly to a set room, they sat him down, fluffing his hair up, putting foundation on his face, slowly applying some concealer, after all he's 16, and puberty is a bitch. As Hiro was getting powdered up, his costars were all having a coffee break, except Tadashi, he would always ask for tea, something about nostalgia.

After a good amount of time, Hiro was change into his outfit, thank god it was comfortable, I mean no one wants to wear some ridiculous outfit (though he was told that, that will come later on.) The male sighed as he grabbed a packet of gummy bears, grateful his agent mentioned his love of them to the person in charge of the food table. He was busy eating the sweet chewy little bears, though, normally he would bite off the heads and give them a new body he but he was an actor for god's sake! Now he just decapitates them and eats their heads, he does have to grow up a little. As the male bit into a new gummy bear he was tapped on the shoulder. He turned down and faced the person who had tapped him, it was the director, Robert Callaghan. He smiled at him, his face was aged, he was rather old anyway, but, man, was he a creative guy.

"Hiro, I have a request for you," Callaghan said with a gentle tone, looking at Hiro with a smile.

"What's up?" The shorter boy asked, looking up to him.

"You know how Tadashi is supposed to be your brother…" He started "I need you to spend more time with him" Callaghan explained "First of all, it would be good for our 'brothers' to be interacting and having a good relationship off screen as it is on screen, and you need to get closer with him in order for your relationship to seem real, and not forced." He clarified with a exasperated sigh, expecting Hiro to get annoyed, as many other stars have been.

"Spend more time with him" spend more time with Tadashi. Him. Tadashi. Together. Hiro's eyes lit up with delight and nodded, probably way too quickly. "I would love to!" he said "—I mean, that's cool, I can deal with spending some time with that nerd," He said shrugging, because he didn't want to be too obvious. He tried to be discrete. Keyword: tried.

Callaghan let a wave of relief wash over him "Oh good," he said, then patted this shoulder "that'll be more convenient, and could you explain this to Tadashi? I'm sure he would like to know as well," the grey haired man said as he left him be.

Hiro was practically bouncing inside, he quickly went to Tadashi, going behind him and poking him in the side "Hey! Tadorkshi, I have some news for you!" Hiro told him, already making a new nickname for the taller male.

Tadashi jumped at the jab to his side "Hiro!" he yelped "What is it?—wait did you just call me tadorkshi?' He asked with a face that read "The hell man?"

Hiro sighed and waved his hand "Whatever, whatever, anyway, the thing is, we need to spend loads of time together. Director's orders! I agreed to it already so, you have no choice!"

Tadashi's heart leaped, Hiro wanted to spend time with him? Off screen? Tadashi felt rather excited. Not like I would choose not, Tadashi thought with a soft smile directed to the other, "You knuclebrain, what if I didn't want to spend so much time together, don't go around deciding my freetime," he huffed out, making a fake glare at the shorter boy, who had a slight scare, he smiled after noticing the others fright "You're lucky I want to spend time with you," He said, running his hand through the other's ruffle-worthy hair.

Hiro beamed at the words and touch, accidently leaning into his touch "Hell yeah!" he exclaimed as he tried to keep his bouncing a minimal. He was glad the other wasn't mad at his quick consent to the suggestion. Hiro hummed, a little sad as Tadashi pulled his hand away from his hair. "So you wanna grab some ice cream after filming is done today?" he asked, eager to spend as much time possible with him.

"Oh, sure! That sounds pretty cool," Tadashi replied with a grin, he flicked his nose "We got some filming to do, genius" he said as he pulled away and dragged the male to the set, where they were calling his name.

After a reasonably long day of filming, Hiro set out to go to Tadashi's room and ask him if they could change their plans to go have dinner instead of getting ice cream, since it was kind of late. Hiro pushed the door open to find Tadashi sleeping on his chair, now the "cute" and "adorable," thing to do would e to slowly shake him and wake him up. Unfortunately Hiro didn't thik of that and jabbed his side "Tadashiiiiiiiiii get up," he whined, the male made a sound of distress and grabbed the hand that poked him, feeling the small hand in his hands made him open his eyes to see a very embarrassed Hiro over him "Uh…" Hiro started.

Tadashi quickly let go and coughed a little "The hell was that for? Do you have to be such a paaaaain," he asked with a yawn, the got up "Ready to go out on our da-break, yeah, our… ice cream break ," he said.

"Well… about that, I was thinking we should get dinner? Cause its late and ice cream would be lame at this time…" Hiro trailed off, he didn't want to seem to be all "let's go out and eat like a couple" Hopefully Tadashi wouldn't mind.

Tadashi's heart felt like it was going to literally burst, was hiro asking him out to dinner? That's totally a date right? Right…! Tadashi shrugged "Are you paying, is the question?" he asked, raising a brow.

"With my money, I could buy the whole restaurant," Hiro said smugly, but of course he was joking, I mean, he doesn't have that much money. Hiro quickly smiled "So you're game?" he asked once again for clarification.

"As long as you're paying," Tadashi said in a light voice, as he got up and grabbed his hat

Hiro smiled as he zipped up his jacket a little "C'mon you big nerd," he said as he rushed outside and to his car, all by pulling Tadashi by the wrist.

Tadashi was out of breath from running "Us… nerds... don't have much – h-hah—stamina… " He said, resting his hands on his knees as he waited for Hiro to start the car, which thankfully happened rather quickly and Tadashi got in, relaxing against the passenger's seat.

Hiro stated the car up and drove to a rather a high-end restaurant, who coincidentally was a hot stop for couples. Once they entered, got seats, ordered their food, Hiro got mac' and cheese with a side of salad (because you're never too old for mac' and cheese,) while Tadashi got a margherita flatbread with ravioli as a side, they finally relaxed.

"How was your first day of filming?" Tadashi asked Hiro with an interested gaze.

"Honestly, its not as bad as I thought, except when you get all giggly and can't stop," Hiro explained "But if you want me to be honest it was really cool seeing how a movie set works, in commercials they're a little simpler and you don't even have to talk." He said with a shrug.

"Mmhm, they are preeettty cool," Tadashi agreed as he yawned "But holy crap, they do take a lot of your sleep and energy from you" He said as he smiled a little lazily.

Hiro couldn't help but blush, yeah the other had been really cute when he was asleep, but the way the male had been, lazily slumped against his hand, watching Hiro with a sleepy gaze made him flush a little "Oh wow! Would you look at that, there's food!" Hiro said, a little too loudly, which got him an annoyed hum from Tadashi "Alright, alright," he said, stretching out as he groaned.

Just like that the food arrived and the two started to basically inhale the food, after a long day, what can you expect?

The bill was paid for, God bless paychecks, and the two walked out. Of course they had to be met with cold air, Hiro shivered and his teeth chattered "G-gross," he mumbled. It was too cold for a tiny guy like him.

"Goooood Hiro do I have to do everything for you," he said as he engulfed the small guy in his coat and arms "Feeling any better shortstuff?" he asked smugly as he walked with him his chin resting on his head.

Hiro's eyes widened "u-uhhhhh, yes, definitely," he said as he nuzzled back into him "C'mon the cars that way," he said as he walked to vehicle with the other still on his back, his arms around him and his head still resting on him. "Guh… too tired," Tadashi mumbled as he pulled away as they entered the car.

"Want me to drive you home?" Hiro asked as he started the car once again, putting on the heater and letting it circulate, warming both of the cold male's bodies. Tadashi laughed "Nooooo just drop me on the street, you knucklehead" he said sarcastically, which definitely earned a punch to the shoulder.

"Wow Tadorkshi, I never knew you could be so mean," Hiro said, acting to be hurt as he drove onward.

"I get meaner the longer you know me," Tadashi said smiling "Well okay, I don't get that much meaner, maybe a little more sarcastic, honestly if people are around me that long, I think it they can bare me enough to tolerate my sarcastic comments," he said shrugging "Turn right here," he said pointing out to the next turn

"M"Kay, and I guess you're right, why not be more comfortable around people who you like," Hiro agreed as he parked the car

"Well, out you go dork,"Hiro said "Pay me back in ice cream tomorrow!" he told him as Tadashi left and went into his house. And cue the happy faces and stupid gushing over Hiro's date. He covered his face in his hands and smiled widely "Holy crap… I can't believe we went out together, for our own reasons, and I got to know him better and wow," Hiro gushed to himself, his voice muffled and hot. This was too good.

And on the other side of the door, Tadashi was grinning, "Hell yes!" he practically shouted "First date: Success," he said as he set his hat aside, went upstairs and flopped down onto his bed, with a way-too-happy-for-no-reason smile.
