On the way home
Hiro left the SFIT campus with Baymax hand in hand, relieved to be finally going home together.
It was a bright, sunny, Autumn day. The air was cool and the leaves were starting to fall from the trees and forming little piles around the base of the trees.
Baymax looked up, observing the falling leaves as they started to fall around them.
One landed on his face and Hiro giggled, as Baymax took the offending leaf off his face, quietly observing it's shape and pattern.
"Hiro what are these?"
"They are leaves Baymax, they fall from the trees as the seasons begin to change."
"They start to grow in the Spring and in the Summer, when the weather is warmer. Then they start to dry out and die, falling from the trees as the seasons starts to get cooler in the Autumn and Winter."
"I see and each one has a unique pattern on them?"
"Uh huh."
"Most fascinating these leaves are."
Hiro smirked, at Baymax's new interest."
But then if Baymax had never left the Lab before, then this was his first time seeing Leaves.
As it was still morning and it was bright sunny day, Hiro figured Aunt Cass would still be too busy with her cafe. Also with Baymax's sudden interest in leaves, he thought it would be nice to get out and stretch his legs before heading home, especially after being cooped up in his Lab for so long. Plus a nice walk around San Fransokyo central park, would do them both good, he thought to himself.
Then The Lucky Cat Cafe, was only a 10 minute walk away.
As they entered the park together, Hiro saw a nice quiet bench at the top of the hill, with killer views of San Fransokyo Bay. They sat down together and looked out on to the Bay, with the nice crisp morning breeze flowing through Hiro's hair. Baymax sat up and put his arm over Hiro's shoulder, bring him closer. Hiro smiled, leaning into his side, as they both watched the boats go by.
Hiro gave a satisfied sigh, snuggling up closer to the bot, while Baymax's internal mechinanics gently hummed beside him. After about 30 minutes or so, Hiro sat up, yawned and stretched.
Turning around, looking around the almost empty park. "Hey Baymax, wanna see what the best thing about leaves are?"
Baymax nodded
With that Hiro jumped up off the bench, taking Baymax with him, as they walked to the tree at the bottom of the hill and Hiro began to climb it.
"Hiro! Please exercise caution, a fall from this height, may cause injury."
Hiro smiled down at the robot, "hey buddy watch this." Hiro then began shaking one of the branches.
Leaves went flying everywhere.
Baymax watched in awe, as the leaves started to fall around him, reaching out and touching them as they fell.
Hiro smiled, watching his fascinated friend.
"Hey Maxi catch me."
Hiro practically launched himself at Baymax, who caught him, almost falling over in the process. Hiro reached out and brought the soft bot's face closer to his, planting a kiss on the nurse bot cheek.
Baymax hummed with happiness again, holding Hiro tighter
"See I told you leaf shaking was awesome" Hiro laughed, who was now going slightly pink in the face.
Baymax put Hiro back down and gave his hair a little ruffle.
Hiro looked around spotting the swings. "Race you to the swings."
"I'm not fast."
Hiro giggled, remembering when Baymax last said that, they where in the warehouse being chased by Yokai. It sure wasn't funny back then.
"I win" declared Hiro, who was now proudly sitting on a swing.
He then felt a pair of large hands start pushing him from behind, "Faster Baymax, faster, higher, higher, wee!" Hiro giggled.
Baymax smiled, he liked it a lot when his charge was happy, especially if he was the one who made him happy.
Hiro eventually came to a holt, getting off the swing and running over to where Baymax was standing.
"Come on Maxi moo moo, your turn now."
But Hiro I don't know how to swing?"
"Come on its easy, look i will give you a push." Hiro smiled dragging a now reluctant Baymax over to where the swings were.
Baymax sat on the swing. "Okay Hiro what do I do now?"
"Nothing just sit there and hold on, I will do the rest."
Baymax despite his size, was incredibly light and made it really easy to push.
"Hiro, I'm doing it, I'm swinging." Baymax smiled.
Hiro began pushing Baymax higher and higher, until.
Crash!
"Oh no"
Baymax, somewhere in between Hiro pushing him high, he had lost his balance and fallen backwards off the swing.
"Baymax! are you ok buddy? Speak to me?" Hiro said concerned, now getting down to where Baymax was lying on the floor.
"I've obtained no internal damage." Baymax managed to say sitting up.
"Phew! That's good, You had me worried for a second there big guy, that was quite a fall." Hiro smiled
"I don't think swinging is for robots." Baymax stated.
"I don't think so ether buddy," Hiro said helping Baymax off the floor and holding him tight.
"I think we should start heading home, the lunch time rush should be over by now." Hiro grinned, taking Baymax's hand and leading him out of the park and towards the home.
As they approached the cafe, Hiro had a feeling like he was being watched, as he turned around, but no one was there,
"weird" He thought, as they stepped inside.
