A/N: Here's a new story! I have no idea exactly where this is going to go!


"C'mon, knucklehead, we don't wanna be late!" Tadashi yelled up the stairs to his younger brother who was starting high-school that day, and didn't want him to be late on his first day. He saw his eleven year old brother race down the stairs, blue backpack already on his back.

"You ready, Hiro?" Tadashi asked, and Hiro nodded before grabbing a bagel on the counter that their Aunt had left out for him to take when he arrived.

Aunt Cass came through the doors from the kitchen and squealed with excitement as she saw here two nephews stand in front of her, almost departing for school.

"You're two are growing up so fast!" She squeaked, and rushed over to her two boys she had raised since Hiro was three, and quickly pulled them into a tight hug. "Hugs before you leave! Have a good first day of school, both of you!"

"Thanks, Aunt Cass!" Tadashi smiled, and both of her nephews waved a goodbye before she closed the door behind them.

"Race you!" Hiro yelled, just like the year before, and took off running, Tadashi laughing and following behind him. Both brothers ran to the car, falling hard onto it, laughing and a bit out of breath.

"I won!" Hiro shouted before climbing into the passenger's seat.

"It was a tie, bonehead." Tadashi laughed as he walked to the other side of the vehicle and climbing into the driver's seat, buckling up his seat belt and started up the engine.

As they drove to the school, a wave of silence crashed over the two brothers, which was very unusual considering all they did was talk the last few years of Aunt Cass taking them to school, but now Tadashi was able to drive so he borrowed his Aunt's car.

Tadashi glanced over at his little brother who was fiddling with his thumbs and biting his lip.

"Hey, bonehead, are you alright?" Tadashi asked, but no answer came from his younger brother "Hiro!" Hiro looked up suddenly, surprise and alarm written on his face.

"What?" He asked, looking over at his older brother who was staring at the road ahead.

"You're nervous, aren't you?"

"Oh, c'mon Tadashi, why would I be nervous?" Hiro replied quickly, and looked down at his feet.

"Oh, I don't know, maybe the fact that you sort of skipped three grades?"

"It was too easy!"

"You're in high school now, Hiro, its okay if you're nervous you know."

"I'm not." Hiro rested his arm on the arm rest and stared out the window, chin resting in his palm.

"Okay…just promise me you won't get into any trouble." Tadashi had a more serious tone.

"I never get into trouble." The two brothers met eye contact and Tadashi raised his eye brows. "Okay, maybe sometimes but I won't, I promise!"

"Good. Don't talk back or complain to teachers, don't try to hang out with or talk to people that are a lot bigger and look like they may beat you up, don't-"

"Tadashi! I know! You told me this all last night, remember, and the night before that!"

"I know, but…"

"But what?"

Tadashi looked over at his little brother. "I just want you to be safe, that's all…" He steered with one wheel, using the other to ruffle Hiro's hair, who protested and moved away from the action, which made Tadashi laugh.

The car slowed as it turned into the school, parking in the parking lot nearby. Tadashi unlocked the doors, and both brothers stepped outside their doors.

"Well, we are, little bro." Tadashi smiled, walking up to his brother and gave his hair another ruffle. "Sure you know where you're going?"

"Yes, I'll be fine." Hiro managed a smile, though he looked like he was going to be sick.

"Alright, if you're sure…" They walked into the entrance of the school, and walked their different ways.

Tadashi turned around to see Hiro's back. "Be careful!" He yelled to Hiro, and Hiro turned around to give him an eye roll and a thumbs-up before walking to class, Tadashi watching him until he vanished with the crowd.

"Please be careful…" Tadashi murmured, the crowd swarming around him, and he too turned around to enter his first class for that year.
