Amnesia

Chapter 4

Facing away from Aizawa, her legs hang over the bed but don't quite touch the floor. The nurse stood on her right with a gentle hand on her arm and around her waist to help her stand up. The doctor on her left not touching her but was there to help if she fell and the nurse wasn't strong enough. The girl was rather small and a bit skinnier than when she arrived from not eating for a while.

She moved a bit closer to the edge of the bed so her feet could touch the floor. It was cold but smooth. She held onto the nurse's arm as she stood, immediately her legs felt weak, and she gripped the nurse harder for stability, though the nurse could barely feel it. Aizawa watched intently, ready to help at any second, the worry in his heart coming back.

She didn't fall, but it wasn't easy for her, not that she showed it at all. They slowly made their way towards the wheelchair that was sat by the door so they could see how far she could walk. They knew it was a lot to ask someone who had just woken up from being in a coma for a month, but they had to test her.

Aizawa wanted to stop them, to just carry her to the chair and take her back home. But he knew she needed to do this. Her quirk was still going strong, but he needed to see how her actual body was doing.

Soon they made it to the chair, and she sat down. The doctor smiled at her and praised her for how well she did. Then an unexpected noise sounded around the room then it went silent as they all looked at the girl. It was her stomach. Now he really wanted to take her home, he wanted her to get better, and he definitely didn't want to waste anymore time here. She needed feeding that much was obvious just from looking at her.

"Well now that that's all done, let me just go fill out some paperwork, and we can send you on your way." The doctor smiled and both him and the nurse bowed then proceeded to exit the room. It was silent and no one moved for a few moments, until she turned her head towards her teacher, then towards her nightstand. Making them all float she placed them all neatly into her lap, holding onto the vase for extra precaution.

He didn't know what to do or what to say to her. Silence enveloped them. She sat admiring the flowers again for a few minutes until her attention turned to the open window. Without touching it, she moved her wheelchair towards the open window. Luckily enough it was long enough so she could see out of it from her seated position. He decided to go stand next to her and look out the window too.

They were on the third floor, so they could see the top of the trees, and just outside the window just so happened to be a cherry blossom tree, the beautiful pink leaf's swayed in the breeze, some dropping from the tree and either onto the floor or into the air.

A flurry of leaf's was suddenly picked up by a gust of wind, swirling in an almost beautiful tornado-like way, dancing around each other as they go past the window. But one leaf strayed from its course and floated in from the open window, fluttering down until it landed on her lap where the pile of cards was.

She looked down at it and a small smile graced her face as she gently picked it up with her free hand and blew it back out the window, watching it go. The man found the interaction ever so sweet. He found himself softly smiling a lot around her today. He really was glad she was okay, even if she didn't remember anything and even if she was a bit different from before, he was just happy she was alive and awake.

That's when the memory from earlier popped up. 'Marry me'. A small blush started to form on his face as he realised what she had actually said. He covered his face with his hand and looked away.

The door opened behind them, and the doctor stepped through with some papers in his hand. Aizawa, managing to calm himself, turned towards the doctor with his stoic expression and looked down at the papers the doctor held out to him. 'Finally,' he thought. He could finally take her home.
