Modern Four: High School

Tadashi's POV

Flames. In the school. Smoke concurring the sky. I ran towards the depression with my little brother following behind. It was a horrifying scene. I heard screams inside. I started to go into the building until Hiro grabbed my arm. I turned to him. He was afraid, "Tadashi, NO." I looked at the burning school and looked back at my pleading brother. I hold the tears back, "Innocent lives are in there. Someone has to help." I pull my arm out of my brothers grasp and run towards the flames not even caring about my favorite baseball cap flying off my head. It was getting hazzy as I looked around. I could hear the screams getting louder and louder and the face of Hiro stuck in my head. CRASH. I was on the ground, helpless. Then there was an explosion and it turned black. All I heard was Hiro yelling out, "TADASHI! TADASHI!"

I woke with a gasp. Sitting up lightly panting from my horrific nightmare, I see Hiro standing in front of me beside the bed. Phew. Not real. Hiro was smiling with his hands on the bed post, "Come on Tasdashi, time to get up!" I grown and pull the covers off me and looked over at my clock on my dresser: 8:15. CRUD! School starts in thirty minutes!

I bonk my brothers head and I go to my closet, grab a shirt and pants. Quickly get that on and I put my lucky hat on top of my head not wanting to part from it. I put on some shoes and head downstairs and see that Aunt Cass and Hiro were eating breakfast. I went over to the covered and pull out a box of cereal, I get a bowl and some milk. I soon sit down with my cereal and start to rapidly eat it with Aunt Cass constantly telling me to slow down.

Hiro and I finish breakfast and head out the door. We usually walk to school together. It's pretty nice being with my brother since I still feel sort of protective with him because our parents died years ago. I just wanted my little bro safe.

Hiro was on his phone and being the curious older brother, I peer over his shoulder. I ask with a smirk on my face, "Who are you texting?" Suddenly, Hiro got nervous and pulled the phone a little farther away from me, "No one.."
I smirk, "Is it your girlfriend, Penny?" I loved teasing him. He always gets so offensive and red in the face. As I predicted, Hiro got as red as a tomato and looked at me, "For your information, I'm texting Wilbur." I laugh a little and look up, "..What are you guys texting about?"

There was a long pause. I smiled sneakily at him, "Are you texting about your girlfriend, Pe-." Before I could finish, Hiro nudged me in my side. Hiro just said with a hint of blush, "Shut up." I start laughing hard. Hiro was so defensive! I just keep laughing and Hiro was crossing his arms and looking away, "I hate you." We both knew he didn't mean it.

I picked him up by the arms and started baby talking him, "Oh no, Hiro's gotta whittle crush? He's scared? Poor baby Hiro has a crush." Hiro wiggled out of my hands super embarrassed. I thought he was going to ignore me but he didn't..sigh.

Hiro, who was now not as angry faced as before, questioned, "How about you and Honey Lemon huh? You guys gonna take long walks on the beach? Hold hands? Kiss in pu-."I plaster my hand on his mouth now. We were close to high school grounds. I didn't want anyone to overhear him even if I WAS going to ask her out...if I had the courage to. I put my finger to my lips and make eye contact with him. I look around nervously, "Will you cut it out?"

Hiro smirked and pulled away my hand, "Why should I? Your going to ask her out any-." I stop him, "I know, I know. I'm just not sure when exactly the right time is." Hiro shrugged, "Ok dude. Whatever your comfortable with." And we headed towards the school.
