It's Like You & Me Against the World (Hiro x Reader)

Chapter 12 - Out of It

Third Person POV

     Sunlight streamed in from the window, warming up the two who are snuggled up against each other. Hiro was the first to stir, especially when (Y/N)'s alarm went off. He turned and slammed the snooze button, murmuring something before cuddling up to (Y/N) again.

     His eyes flew open when he realized that it felt like a person's body heat, not a pillow. He noticed (Y/N) sleeping next to him and reacted a little too harshly. Hiro let out a yelp and scooted back, only to fall off the bed. He tried to quickly pull himself up except he banged his head on the side of Tadashi's desk and crumpled back down.

     "Oww," he cried, rubbing his head. By this time, (Y/N) woke up and Baymax inflated.

     "On a scale of one to ten, how would you rate your pain?" Baymax asked.

     "I'm fine Baymax," Hiro insisted, never learning his lesson.

     "I will scan you now."

     "No-"

     "Scan complete. You have bruised your head and I suggest you put an ice pack on it. Your neuraltransmitter levels also have elevated quickly, meaning you are feeling flustered and embarrassed."

     "Shut up Baymax!" Hiro cried and pushed his friend back to his side of the room.

     "Um, Hiro, is everything-"

     Hiro quickly interrupted (Y/N). "Yup! Yup, everything's fine. No need to worry!"

     "Your ears are red," (Y/N) stated.

     Hiro didn't even bother to deny it and bolted into the restroom. She turned to Baymax. "Is Hiro okay?"

     "I think he must be embarrassed," Baymax said again. "I do not know why though. It must be his-"

     "BAYMAX! SHUT UP!" Hiro yelled from inside the bathroom.

     (Y/N) was only half awake to realize what was going on. So she just shrugged and pushed herself off the bed and went through the usual routine.

     Hiro on the other hand stared at himself in the mirror. His face was bright red and he couldn't calm it. It was so red to the point where he could feel the heat when his hands were hovering a few inches away from his cheek.

     Then he started slapping himself.

     "Stupid. Stupid. Stupid," he chanted. "What were you thinking, idiot?!"

     Then he just let his face drop onto the sink.

     "Ow," he said halfheartedly.

     A knock came from the other side. "I heard a sound of distress-"

     "I'm fine Baymax."

     Hiro continued to stare at himself. His heart was beating so loud, it hurts.

     Another knock sounded. "Hiro?" (Y/N) asked. "I uh, need to use the bathroom."

     Hiro turned on the faucet and splashed water on his face, hoping it would reduce the redness. Then he took a deep breath before unlocking the door. "Sorry," he said, smiling weakly.

     Unfortunately, (Y/N) noticed that his face was pink.

     "Hiro? You don't look to well."

     He laughed nervously and edged away from her. "W-What are you saying? I-I'm fine!"

     "Baymaax?" (Y/N) called. The robot waddled over. "Can you scan Hiro for me? He looks unnaturally pink."
