Chapter 5

~<3~The gnashing teeth and criminal tongues conspire against the odds~<3~

One week later

Ding-dong!

"(Y/N)!" you hear a shout from outside.

"Ughhh," you groan, rubbing your eyes tiredly and pushing your rolling desk chair away from your oversized computer monitor. "Wait just a goddamn second," you yell out your open window to the street below. You stand up and stretch-almost falling over from the blood rushing from your head-and stumble tiredly down the hallway, down the stairs, and to your front door.

You open the door to find the face of none other than Tadashi Hamada holding two thermoses.

At four in the morning.

"Morning, (Y/N)," Tadashi says, smiling. You glare back.

"Mornin'. Come on in, I guess," you say, standing aside so your partner can get past you. You two had arranged to meet early in the morning every Saturday to work on Medi.

Tadashi looks around at your house excitedly. Honestly, there's not much to see. The small apartment your family lives in is mostly painted a light mocha color. The door to your parents' room is closed; they're not the ones up at four a.m. The small but tidy living room and kitchen are connected, with the table all your meals are eaten at in the middle of the two rooms.

"C'mon, my room's up here," you say, climbing the staircase as Tadashi follows. The second floor is even smaller than the first, considering that it's just your room. It's medium-sized, not small but rather, cozy. Yeah. The walls are painted (f/c) and there's hardwood floors so you can scoot around easily in your desk chair. Your open window has black curtains and your small bed is neatly made. There are trinkets all around your room: favorite books on a shelf, academic awards in a mounted case, pokemon figurines strewn about your workbench. Postcards, little baubles, and blueprints are scattered about as well. You like to think of it as 'controlled chaos'.

"Go on and take a seat, and I'll show you the code," you say. Tadashi looks around nervously; he's never been in a girl's room, let alone house, before. He settles for the edge of your bed and sits down as you pull your coding back up. You press the 'run' command and a small model of Medi performs about twenty medical procedures, mostly involving needle-related things like vaccinations and stuff.

"Wow, I can't believe you already did all this!" Tadashi exclaims. Then, he notices the bags under your eyes. "Uh, (Y/N), how many hours of sleep have you gotten in the past week?" he asks, eyeing you suspiciously.

"Uh..." you trail off, unsure, "four? Maybe five?"

"That is seriously unhealthy, (Y/N)!" Tadashi says, standing up and walking closer to you. "Here, take this," he says, handing you one of the thermoses you conveniently forgot to notice. It's small and green with a white handle.

"What is it?" you ask, opening up the top.

"Green tea. It's supposed to help you relax," Tadashi said. "You seriously need to sleep. Why don't you take a power nap while I do some coding for a bit, eh?" he offers. You narrow your eyes suspiciously.

"And how do I know you haven't laced this with something and plan to steal all of the valuables in this house?" you deadpan. You can practically see the anime-style sweatdrop on Tadashi's forehead as his smile fades quickly.

"I-I would never do-"

"Whatever, Twinkle Toes," you say, taking the thermos from him. You don't know why, but it's fun to make him feel mildly uncomfortable. Serves you right! you think. Even though you know completely well that you being paired with him wasn't his fault. You're just stubborn like that.

You switch places with Tadashi, sipping the green tea(somehow he knows that you like your tea steeped for, like, five minutes with a single packet of Sweet-and-Low) and closing your eyes. As soon as the warm beverage settles in your gut, you let out a contented sigh and curl up on your bed, drifting off into peaceful sleep to the sound of tapping keys.

Bonus:

Tadashi turned around to tell (Y/N) something, but saw only a softly snoring ball of college-aged angst. Her face was peaceful, features relaxed with soft, pink lips slightly parted.

Tadashi felt heat rise to his cheeks. She looked so cute in her sleep...no, stop watching her sleep, that's creepy! He mentally punched himself and turned back to the computer screen.

Hi everyone! How'd you like the chapter? I actually sat down to write this one instead of being half-asleep when I wrote it. Maybe that says something about my writing skills, haha. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed the chapter and look forward for more to come on a more regular schedule!
