Be Strong With Or Without Me (My Hero Fanfiction)

Part 6

[Kirishima perspective]

[This part is a little longer than the last one]

A nurse came in a couple minutes after I had gone back into the room.
"It hurts Kiri..." I knew he was in pain and it killed me to see him like that.
"I know Kats.. Is there anything you can do?" I looked up at the nurse.
"We can give him a stronger pain medicine but he would not be awake much longer after we give it to him."
She held up two syringes and explained.
"One is stronger but it will make him tired. One is less strong and he might still have some pain."
I looked at him. He squeezed my hand.
"Do you want the stronger one Kats?"
"I don't care... Make it stop hurting please..." He looked at me and I noticed the tears in his eyes.
"Give him the stronger one please.." I rubbed his hand gently. The nurse nodded.
"Hold still Katsuki." She said as she injected one of the syringes into his arm. He flinched a little bit and looked over at her.
"You should feel better soon.." She turned and left the room.
I kept gently rubbing his hand, he watched me. I smiled softly at him.
"Katsuki..."
He looked up at me to show he was listening.
"You ever pull something like that again and I'll kill you myself.. You scared me so bad..."
He smiled slightly and squeezed my hand.
"I won't.. I'll never do that again unless I have too.."
I shook my head and noticed he looked tired.
"No you wont... You should probably get some sleep Kats.."
He nodded and held my hand tightly. I looked over at him, slightly lost in my thoughts. I have been thinking nonstop since I woke up earlier. He smiled at me.
"Ill be okay Kiri.."
"I know.. I was so worried.. You knocked me out for 4 hours and I woke up thinking you might..."
I stopped and bit my lip. I started holding back tears and stared at his hand in mine. I took a deep breath and continued.
"I thought you might have died.. You left that place in rubble and with 15 dead bodies inside.. I don't know what I would have done if you died.."
I looked up at him, he smiled at me. He looked tired and half way asleep.
"Im sorry I scared you.. I wanted to protect you.. I hate seeing you suffer..."
I felt tears come to my eyes, I kept staring at our hands. I was thinking and I accidentally spoke out loud.
"Thank you but I'd rather see you happy.. I hate seeing people I love in this condition.."
I lost my train of thought and realized I was talking. My face went dark red and I looked down to hide it.
"You love me Kirishima?"
He looked at me, I nodded.
"Yeah.. I have for a long tine honestly.. Since the sports festival.."
He hesitated for a moment then he pulled my hand closer to him. I looked up at him, got up and sat next to him on the bed. He smiled at me and pulled me by my shoulder down to eye level with him. My face was red and I looked him in his eyes.
"Kats.. What are you-"
I got cut off. He pulled me down and kissed me. I was a little surprised at first but I slowly started kissing him back. After a while he pulled back and smiled at me. My face was so red. He went back to holding my hand. I rubbed his hand gently. After a while the pain medicine kicked in and he fell asleep.
(In Kiris head)
(No way no way no way!!! He just kissed me!!!)
I stayed sitting next to him as he slept. He had my hand against his chest so I really couldn't do much at the moment. I messed around on my phone for a while and let my mind wonder until he stirred a little bit. His grip on my hand tightened and I felt him sweating. I started getting concerned and gently rubbed his hand. He didn't seem to feel me and seemed to be getting more upset.
"Katsuki.. Hey wake up. It's okay"
I spoke a little loudly so he heard me.
He woke up and tried to sit up. He was panicking. I held his hand tighter and gently pushed him back down.
"Hey! Calm down! It's me! You're okay!"
He looked over at me and calmed down almost immediately. He adjusted himself so he had his head in my lap. I looked down at him and gently rubbed the side of his head.
"Wanna talk about it..?" I made my voice soft and quiet. He shook his head and held onto me.
(It must have been a bad nightmare if he's holding onto me like this..) I talked to him quietly as I kept rubbing his head. He fell asleep on my lap after a while. I heard a nurse walk in and whisper to another doctor. They walked over infront of me and looked at me and Bakugo. They exchanged a glance and the doctor started writing on a clipboard. The nurse whispered.
"Visiting hours will be over soon.. How is he doing?"
I glanced up at her and looked back down at him.
"He umm.. Had a nightmare earlier but otherwise we talked for a bit and he went to sleep.. I don't think Ill be able to leave anytime soon.."
She nodded at me and left the room.
