Just a Robot (Tadashi x Reader)

Chapter Six: Emil

"Okay, you can go now," you said as soon as you reached your street. The walk there had been uncomfortable and awkward.

"Huh? But you're going to be alone. Besides, my parents are out too. So let's keep each other company, okay?" Emil offered brightly, his voice light.

"Fine," you huffed. You unlocked the door and stepped into the dark home. You dumped your box of supplies on the ground, then headed for the kitchen.

"What are you doing, (Y/N)-chan? Are you making food?" Emil followed you. "Want to make popcorn? Then we can watch a movie! That sounds good, doesn't it?"

You silently pulled out a packet of popcorn and placed it in the microwave.

Emil noticed your actions. "Yoidesu! What movie do you want to watch, (Y/N)-chan?"

You turned around after punching in the numbers on the microwave. "I don't care. You can watch by yourself." You gestured to the clock. "It's almost ten."

"But it's a Friday! We can stay up! When are your parents going to be back?" Emil asked, climbing onto one of the bar stools. He rested his elbows on the sleek stone and watched you pull out of strawberries, which you happened to know was Emil's favorite.

"Tomorrow morning. They went off to see my aunt's newborn baby," you replied monotonously. "You rinsed the scarlet fruit, then plopped the bowl in front of your platinum-haired acquaintance just as the microwave went off.

"Sore wa kawaidesu," Emil cooed. "I like babies. They're so cute."

"You're so weird," you muttered. You plopped his snacks in front of him. "Here. Now go watch TV."

Emil watched you leave the kitchen. "B-but, (Y/N)-chan, we're supposed to be keeping each other company."

"And I'm really tired," you contradicted. "Go watch TV and don't you dare come into my room while you're at it."

Emil hurried over and held his arms out in front of the stairs, blocking your route to the bedroom. "Well, if you're going to sleep, then I'm going to sleep."

You gave him a look. "Oh, yeah, where? In my bed?" I knew he was weird.

"Yeah! I like to cuddle~" Emil enthused. You gave him a blank look, then shoved past him.

"Go away." Was all you said.

Emil grabbed your arm."Onegaishimasu? I'm going to by myself and I'm going to get scared. Come on, (Y/N)-chan."

"But I'm tired." You tried to yank yourself loose, but he had an iron grip.

"Then sleep in the living room! I'll feel better if you're in the same room as me!" Emil gave his best puppy dog eyes.

You gave him a steely look. "Fine. Let me get my blankets."

"Yay! Arigato, (Y/N)-chan!" Emil hurried off to the kitchen to fetch his snacks.

A few minutes later, you were huddled on the couch wrapped in your blankets. Emil was watching some Attack on Titan or something on your TV, eating strawberries and popcorn. He occasionally put one in your mouth, completely defeating the purpose of you sleeping. You assumed he was trying to keep you awake and keep him company.

You eventually fell asleep, but you woke up again to the buzzing of your phone on the coffee table. You opened your eyes blearily to see the room was dark and the TV was off. The two bowls were empty by your phone, and Emil was currently crashed on the other side of the sofa. You rubbed your eyes reached for your phone.

Squinting against the light of your phone, you saw it was Allen and it was currently eleven o' clock.

Allen: where's emil?

(Y/N): He's at my house.

Allen: oh, i see ;)

(Y/N): -.- What do you need?

Allen: nothing. i went over to his place and he wasn't there.

(Y/N): Well, even if he was, he wouldn't answer since it's practically midnight.

Allen: well, tell him to meet me at my house tomorrow at ten.

(Y/N): Fine. Bye.

Then you went back to sleep.
