Hiro stares at the picture on desk beside his bed. It seemed like a few minutes, but it was an hour. With one hand, Hiro laid it face down and turned to stare at nothing in particular.

Blackness is seen in the corner of the teen's eyes and he tried to blink it away. A drawn out sound of ringing began to hurt his ears and he felt really scared.

"Hiro. Your friends are here." Aunt Cass said softly with a warm smile and stood near the stairs.

It all stopped immediately so Hiro sat up and almost forgetting about what happened a moment ago. "They are?"

Cass nods, "They wanted to know if you wanted to have a get together at the park."

Hiro didn't want to be stuck up here doing nothing, so he went downstairs to see his friends smile at him.

"Hey, Hiro!"

"So do you want to go?" Honey asked and Hiro nodded with a soft grin.

"Now who will finish this WHOLE can of whipped cream first?" Gogo said, placing down two cans of whipped cream on the picnic table.

Honey grins, raising her hand, "I vote Hiro!"

Fred waves both arms, "Me, Me, Me! Freddy can!"

Wasabi shakes his head and sticks his tongue out, "I am NOT watching this."

Hiro laughs, "Okay, you're on, Fred. Let's do this."

Unfortunately Fred won, but Hiro didn't care since something kept bugging him. Where was (Y/n)? "Hey, guys. Why doesn't (Y/n) hang out with us?"

It gets quiet and their expressions harden for a quick moment. Hiro is confused because he has never seen them so serious, "You guys okay?"

Gogo leans back, looking anywhere but Hiro. Wasabi glances down, clearing his throat softly and Fred plays with his pant leg. Honey takes a deep breath and gives a fake smile, "She's just been busy everytime we ask her."

Hiro hums and lays back, closing his eyes. The five of them give each other glances before staring blankly at Hiro. They stand and start to get close to Hiro.

"Hey guys! Guess what? I'm done doing stupid business so I can FINALLY hang out!"

Your voice happily breaks out as the five of them smile a bit. Hiro grins and stands, "Hey!" You hug Hiro and narrow your eyes at Hiro's friends, then smile. "So what are we all doing today?"

Honey's hands clench to her hand bag, forcing a sweet smile, "Actually, we needed to get going, so you can steal Hiro if you'd like. Bye Hiro!"

Hiro waves and turns to you, holding out his arm, "Shall we take the day away with (fav.food)?"

You smile wide, "We shall, Sir Neutron!" You link arms with him as you both laugh and walk back toward his house. With a slight frown, you lay your head on his shoulder and wanting to stay like that for the rest of your life.

"I want to stay like this for the rest of my life. Especially with you two at my side."

'I wish it was like that too Tadashi....but it's not.' You thought sadly at a memory of Tadashi's words.

Under A Tree At Quarter 3,
I Had Some Hope In Me,
My Life Was Taken From Me,
But I Did Not Feel Peace
