[Kiibo x Reader] In my sleep

In my sleep

//heyy I can't sleep so I made this acc on a whim bc I had a fic idea, never written one before so don't expect much lmao

You hadn't been feeling too well for the past few days. What started out as a simple lightheadedness only became stronger to the point where you could barely walk without feeling awful. Because of this, you stayed in bed barely moving. Even small shifts in movement where enough to make your head severely ache, so you slept to avoid the pain.

Everyone around you was very concerned, though you promised with just enough rest you'll be fine. Akamatsu suggested that someone should look after you despite your protest. Strangely, Kiibo was voted to take the task, you weren't quite sure why this was the case but you wouldn't complain. Kiibo happily agreed, as he was always looking to learn more about humans, and if he could help someone while doing it he would be more then enthused.

Though you wanted to be with Kiibo for different reasons. You hadn't had the chance to speak with him often but you had a growing admiration. There was something about him you couldn't quite put your finger on about him but whatever it was you liked it. You never had time to speak with him alone, but this could be your chance...if only you could actually function

So there you lay, in your bed, staring at the ceiling. You had to just stay awake a little longer so you could let Kiibo in. The silence is finally broken when you hear a knock and a familiar voice at the door

*knock**knock* "(y/n!) im here, are you alseep?"

Oh god he's here and you look like garbage, you don't want him to judge you, would he judge you? your mind is racing as you quickly fix yourself up and head to the door and open it.

"a-ah sorry about that Kiibo I just wa-" you realize rushing to the door was too much movement for your body to handle as you slump down, crutching the door for support.

"(y/n)!? you really don't look to good...please get back in bed right away!" he says as he takes your hands and leads you back to your bed.

you would be mentally screaming at this interaction with Kiibo if you could actually focus on anything but the overwhelming aches your body is enduring. As soon as your head hits your pillow your mind is blurring, Kiibo is trying to tell you about the medicine he has but its not too long until you're completely out.

"Okay (y/n)! Don't worry, I think this medicine will make you feel a lot better! I checked and it ha-" he pauses when his eyes meet your face

You slept, just as you had before, but Kiibo is in your room now. The robot doesn't entirely comprehend the concept of sleep nor even what you are feeling right now.

Can you still hear what he says? How do you stay still for so long? Is it boring? Several questions entered his mind as he watched you sleep. Kiibo moves closer to you, he has so many inquiries but doesn't wish to disturb you. The robot moves closer, he can't help himself.

Kiibo extends his metallic hand to brush the hair away your face to properly examine your expression. It was blank, eyes closed, steady breathing. An expression seeming so simple to some was fascinating to Kiibo. The other expression in the room he wasn't able to see had blossomed a light red. He pressed his other hand to his face, feeling the sudden warmth coming from it. Though he had never realized it before...there was just...something about (y/n) that was so captivating to him

I-I think there is a lot more I want to learn from (y/n)... he thought to himself

His train of thought derails as you shift your position as you sleep. The robot is startled at the thought of waking you and darts his hand away. He is about to apologize profusely until your own voice cuts in.
