(HEAVY HIATUS) You'll be a Hero 2

Just a Normal Day

Third Person POV:

Mao Mao woke up from his bottom bunk. He sat up, yawned, and stretched his small body. He stood out of bed and looked at Badgerclops and Adorabat who were peacefully sleeping. He smiled at the sight.

Time for another day with his new boyfriend and his little deputy.

Mao Mao whistled loudly and heard a groan from the two of his deputies.

"Come on dude," Badgerclops grumbled, "it's too early for that!"

"Too bad. Rise and shine my fellow deputies!"

"Okay okay," Adorabat replied groggily. The two got out of their beds and Adorabat perched on Badgerclops's soft shoulder. Badgerclops kissed the top of Mao Mao's forehead. Mao blushed and gazed up at him.

"Eh, I can't stay mad at you, even if you DO wake me up from my slumber," Badgerclops smiled. Mao Mao chuckled and kissed the back of his furry hand. "What was that for?"

"It's one of many manly ways to kiss someone of course!" Mao Mao bragged.

"Pfft, that's so manly. Just kidding, that's adorable!" Mao glared at him.

"It is not adorable Badgerclops!" he seethed.

"I think you're both adorable!" Adorabat chirped. Mao Mao and Badgerclops grinned at the blue bat, remembering that they told her the big news.

When the afternoon came around, Mao Mao and Badgerclops decided to spend the rest of the day together while Adorabat was playing outside with the other Sweetiepies. They started watching TV while snuggling each other. Badgerclops had his furry arm around Mao Mao. Mao Mao thought it was embarrassing, but he wanted to try new things for once. He nuzzled his head into Badgerclops's fur and the warmth enveloped him. He actually fell asleep not long after.

Badgerclops looked down at Mao Mao sleeping and grinned. He didn't wanna wake him up, but he had to if they wanted to do things the whole day! He shook Mao Mao with the arm that was wrapped around him. Mao's eyes fluttered open.

"Sorry Mao Mao, but we gotta keep going with our day," Badgerclops reminded him softly.

"Mhm . . . okay," he answered wearily. They went on the aerocycle and drove to a familiar scenery. It was the giant cherry blossom tree that they all had their picnic at! Mao Mao never thought it would be used for romantic—no that's not the right word—pleasant reasons. They parked the aerocycle next to the tree.

They lie down next to each other under the tree, watching the petals flow above them.

"Hey Mao Mao?" Badgerclops started.

"Yeah?"

"Did you ever think we'd be doing this?" Mao Mao snickered.

"Nope. Not at all," he admitted as he put his arms behind his head.

"Same here. I just never thought I would've said anything."

"Well be glad you did." The two sat in silence for awhile. Mao Mao had his eyes closed for that whole time when he felt something on his nose. He opened his eyes to see a petal on it. He blew it away and Badgerclops laughed. Mao Mao narrowed his slit eyes at him.

"I put that petal on your face!" Badgerclops chortled.

"Don't even think about doing that ever again," Mao Mao shot at him. He sat up against the ginormous tree trunk and inhaled the glorious smell.

"This is nice," Badgerclops breathed as he sat with Mao Mao. Mao Mao stood up and sat at the other side of Badgerclops.

"Move your giant arm," he demanded softly as he pushed his arm upwards to lean on his side. Badgerclops used that arm to rub his tall, furry ears. Mao Mao blushed and his eyes widened as he realized what he was doing. "S-stop it Badgerclops! It feels weird!" He immediately stopped, understanding what the feline wanted. "Thanks."

"No problem man. I know what it feels like to be uncomfortable." Mao Mao smiled at him and got an idea. He got up and hopped onto Badgerclops while his arms were around his neck. Badgerclops blushed deeply as he stared into Mao Mao's bright, green, emerald eyes. "M-Mao Mao?! What are you doing?!"

"Well I'm too short to be able to kiss you properly. That's a big problem you know?" Mao Mao flirted.

"I-I know, but you could've just—" Badgerclops was cut off by Mao Mao pressing his lips against his. He pushed forward into the kiss. He put his furry arm on Mao Mao's back while his other hand was holding his head. After they split apart, Badgerclops placed a hand on Mao Mao's cheek as they held each other. Mao Mao touched that hand with his.

"You're a great guy Badgerclops," Mao Mao cooed. "I love you."

"You too dude," Badgerclops beamed. Mao pecked him on the lips before sliding down on his white and brown fluffy stomach, nuzzling it. He felt Badgerclops's giant furry arm hug his side.

Another while later, Badgerclops glanced up at the sky. It was losing its natural color of blue already. He checked the time on his robotic arm. 4:30. Adorabat said she would be home at 5. Welp, it's time to go. Badgerclops heard quiet snoring and glanced down at Mao Mao. He chuckled quietly as he thought about what to do with him.

This time he didn't wanna wake the sleepy cat, so he carefully picked him up and cradled him in his left arm. Badgerclops headed to the aerocycle. Though the rumbles of the aerocycle may wake him up. Badgerclops sat down and gently placed Mao Mao in front of him so that he laid on his stomach. He turned on the aerocycle and felt Mao Mao shift a little.

"Thanks for driving the bike for me," Mao mumbled.

"Anytime." And so, Badgerclops drove his boyfriend home.

When Badgerclops entered HQ with a groggy Mao Mao next to him, they saw Adorabat coloring something on the table. She turned her head to them, realizing their arrival.

"Oh, you're back! You guys weren't home when I went back, so I made sure no one was sneaking in, especially the Sky Pirates!" she bubbled.

"Great job Adorabat," Mao Mao yawned as he and Badgerclops dropped on the couch.

"So . . . what did y'all do together?" Adorabat asked curiously. Badgerclops and Mao Mao told her every single thing that happened. Yep, even the kissing parts. Which she cringed at a little, but she thought it was cute as well.

"And finally, I carried Mao Mao to the aerocycle," Badgerclops finished as Mao Mao blushed a little.

"Aww that's super cool!" Adorabat exclaimed while kicking her legs up and down. "I bet you two had so much fun!"

"Totally," they both agreed in unison.

Nighttime approached fast. Adorabat was sleeping in her middle bunk while Mao Mao and Badgerclops were watching TV again in the living room. Mao Mao was lying on Badgerclops's stomach, lying on his side.

"Stop squirmin' man, it's tickling me!" Badgerclops simpered.

"Deal with it," Mao Mao teased. He yawned loudly.

"You are very sleepy today." Badgerclops patted his head.

"Am not! Heroes are never tired!"

"If that was the case, then they wouldn't get one minute of rest!"

"But they wouldn't need rest! That's what I'm saying!"

"Whatever you say dude." A few minutes later, Badgerclops shut the TV off. "Wanna head to the bedroom now?" he asked.

"Hmm . . . nope. I wanna stay right here," Mao Mao purred. Badgerclops giggled and aimlessly grabbed a blanket from the closet with his robotic arm. He draped it over him and Mao Mao.

"There we go." Badgerclops hesitated for a quick second before rubbing the cat's ear a little. "Night Mao Mao."

"Mmm . . . night." Before Badgerclops drifted off, he pulled Mao Mao forward a little to kiss him on the top of his head.
