The smile you fell asleep with still remained as the morning sun poked through the shades in your room. A sudden wave of excitement flowed through your veins, causing you to abruptly sit up in bed. It creaked in protest as you hopped off and flew to the closet to pick out an outfit. Laying the selection down on your bed, you realized the time on the clock only read 8:38AM. Of course Hiro would have already woken up at dawn, or he would still be sleeping soundly and would continue to do so for hours. Sighing, you stepped into the bathroom and began your morning routine. After an hour of preparing, you paced the bedroom back and forth pondering what to do with your spare time. There was never a still moment, you couldn't think without adjoing your attention to some kind of movement.

By the time it was 9:45, you had come to the brilliant conclusion to go to the Lucky Cat Cafe whether Hiro was awake or not. You devised a plan of revenge in case he was still asleep, noting that he slept like a rock just as the rest of his family. The corners of your mouth tugged into a mischievous smile at the mental image of the results of your plot.

Upon entering the Lucky Cat Cafe, you were greeted warmly by Aunt Cass.

"Goodmorning (Y/N)! Would you like any breakfast or a cup of coffee? Its on the house!" she shook your shoulders enthusiastically.

You chuckled, "I'm alright for right now, thank you though! Is Hiro alive and moving yet?"

"I don't believe so... Feel free to wake him up!" she quickly averted her attention to a guest entering the cafe as the conversation came to an end.

You laughed and made your way through the archway leading to the Hamada living space. You sauntered into the kitchen and, cliche as it was, filled a glass to the brim with ice cold water. Smirking, you carefully tiptoed up the flight of stairs, cautious not to spill the ammo.

Once you reached Hiro's room, you paused and listened for signs of sleep. The sound of faint snoring drifted through the cracked door, signaling your opportunity to attack. You walked in slowly and crept up to his bed, noticing his messy black hair pointing in every possible direction. His mouth was open slightly and drooped off to the side as he peacefully breathed in and out rhythmically.

You smiled and soon caught yourself, remembering the reason why you were standing next to his bed with a full glass of water. Your smile turned into a smirk as you began to tilt the glass over Hiro's head. You quickly dumped it and ran away to avoid Hiro's reaction. He jumped up with a yelp and fell straight out of his bed with a *thump*.

His hair shook back and forth like a wet dog trying to remove the cold as he pushed himself off the floor. Once the cold rush finally overcame him, he turned towards you with squinted eyes and a scowl. You stood by, laughing at the scene unraveling before you.

"Its great to see you too," he stated.

"Told you I'd get back at you, Hamada!"

He chuckled, rolling his eyes, "This war isn't over!" He yelled as he threw a pillow at your face.

You retaliated and threw the pillow back at him, "but first, i need to eat some breakfast!"

As if on que, Hiro's stomach rumbled. "Alright, to be continued!" he shouted as he jumped off his bed, thrusting his index finger in the air and dashing out of the room.

Giggling, you followed in his footsteps down to the cafe where it appeared that Aunt Cass had already set the familiar back table with a plate of danishes and donuts. Hiro's eyes glimmered as he ran up to the table and swiftly seized both a donut and a danish at the same time. You watched as he somehow successfully shoved both of the pastries in his mouth at once.
