"Oof!" You grunt as you crash into the wall of the Ministry of Science. You fall off of the hover board and you scream as you plummet down to the earth. Rockets are heard in the near distance and strong, smooth arms catch you and bring you back to the safety of the ground.

"(Y/n)! How many times do I have to tell you to wait for me when you try out new things?" Astro scolds, "You could have gotten seriously hurt! Remember the last time you tried something like this? With the roller skates?"

You pout and cross your arms. "I just wanted to learn to roller skate so that I could play rocket ball with you!" You mumble the last part, "Besides, my bum was sore the rest of the week."

Astro shakes his head. He loves you dearly, but you are just too clumsy and get hurt easily.

"Anyways," He starts, "why were you even riding a hover board in the first place?"

"Well," You push your two pointer fingers together, "I just wanted to learn so that I could ride next to you when you fly."

There you go again. Doing reckless things for very sweet reasons. You always do this kind of stuff, usually just to be around your robotic boyfriend more often. It's what really gets to Astro; and you know it.

"I can help, you know. You don't have to learn by yourself. I can keep you balanced until you learn to do so yourself!" Astro comforts you.

You grin and click a button on a watch on your left wrist. The (f/c) hover board floats down from where you fell and floats right next to you. You hop on and try to get into a good stance as Astro turns on his rocket boots and holds your waist.

"Okay, what do I do now?" You ask him.

Astro hums as he scans the machine to see how it works. Once he is done, he tells you what buttons to push and you blast off.

"Slow down!" Astro yells with wide eyes.

"I can't!" You yell back worriedly.

"Apply slow amounts of pressure to the red button at your foot!" He responds while trying hard to keep you steady at high speeds.

You follow his directions and the board slows down to a slower speed, one that is easier to control.

Sooner or later that day, you start to get the hang of it and you ask Astro to let go of you. You're really high up in the air and that worries him, but you seem to be confident in yourself, so he is too. He lets go and you zoom around in the air.

"Look, Astro! I'm doing it, I'm doing it! I'll be able to fly with you now!" You squeal.

He smiles, "That's great (y/n)! I knew you could do it!"

Then he motions for you to follow him. You comply with his wishes and pursue him.

You two zoom around clouds, making silly shapes and figures, until you swirl around each other and meet up at the highest point. There, you share a sweet and tender kiss.

"Thank you, Astro. Without you, I wouldn't be here," You say as you hug him.

"No, thank you (y/n). For being so thoughtful and for always trying your best," He replies with a sweet smile as he hugs you back.

"Are you proud of me?" You ask him innocently as you both head back home while holding hands.

"Of course, (y/n)," he replies, "I've always been proud, even when you make a mistake."
