Kaiketsu of Zorro - Diego x reader

Chapter 18

"So? How does it look?"

Kris asked the group as she pulled the covers from her new creation. A real life-sized Zorro that was made out of metal. A machine that is. 

"Cool!"

Bernard stated with awe. You jumped out from the backrooms of Kris's former laboratory and smiled at the kids while putting your tools away.

"And I helped with making it!"

You proclaimed to the group with a big smile on your dirty face.

"Y/N you have such a dirty face...."

Kris speculated with a funny glimmer in her eyes. You set a pair of bolts back into a cardboard box nearby and went to the bathroom to clean your face off. 

"Y/N is so hardworking."

Lalita claimed while looking at Diego. He caught her gaze and moved back a little bit.

"What?"

He asked with confusion. Lalita smiled and cast him a mocking look.

"Way more hardworking than you."

He stepped back with more pain in his eyes now. 

"Lalita how can you say that-"

The sentence then broke off as he fell back into the same cardboard box you put the bolts in and he hit his head on the wall, causing the shelf above to break and knock him on the head a second time. A loud clatter was heard by you, and you ran out of the bathroom to see what happened. 

"Diego are you okay?!"

You set the anterior back to its place and lifted him.

"Be careful next time, okay?"

You whispered to him.

"I have aforementioned that this is not a playground, and you should be careful, right, Diego?"

Kris blamed him. He accepted the blame and anxiously shrugged. He is pretty tall you won't lie, so when he shrugged, his left hand accidentally hit a box with a screwdriver and a few wrenches, and they toppled over. They crashed to the ground and made the same shelf from earlier fall down but hit you on the head this time. 

"I think I aforesaid to be careful here. This place is not a playground."

The kids around you started to giggle.

"Lalita was right when she said that you two act like a couple."

Nikita chirped in her usual innocent voice, hugging herself tighter. 

"The same thing happens to the two of you too."

You currently couldn't process what she said because your head hurt from the shelf. Honestly, you don't even care what they say anymore. 

"Y/N. I think your head is bleeding."

Kris mentioned, pointing at your wounded head. 

"And there's a big bruise around the cut." 

Bernard pointed. 

"You told me to be careful when you're the one who has to be careful."

Diego shared. He articulated the situation and decided to bring you to Dr. Timoteo's clinic to have your wound checked. When you arrived, there were a bunch of guys there, looking a little sick.

"It's very rare to see so many people need to come to the clinic for treatment."

You uttered in disbelief. Ms. Martin sighed.
