There was a buzzing sound coming from the fluorescent lights. There was beeping coming from a heartrate monitor.

When (Y/N) finally came out of his unconscious state, he was overwhelmed with an extreme headache.

It took hours before he could stay in a fully conscious state after he woke up. But, when he eventually did, he noticed that his arms weren't black anymore. Instead, they looked like the burn marks on his face.

' ' Huh.. How did my arms.. get fixed..? ' ' (Y/N) was talking to himself.

He stared at the blank, white celling before a nurse walked in.

' ' Oh, good! You're finally awake! You've been out of it for about a week now.. Oh, also, you have a visitor! She's been coming around daily to see if you're awake. ' '

Suddenly, Makima walked in through the doorway.

' ' Ah, (Y/N), it's good to see you in an OK shape. How are you feeling? ' ' She asked him with a smile, and all he could do was continue staring at the celling.

' ' I guess I'm fine. I do have a killer headache, though. And, I'm starving to death. ' '

He heard Makima walking closer to him, stopping right at the side of his bed.

' ' You were amazing out there, (Y/N). You protected Denji and Power, keeping them safe and well. I'm very proud of you. ' '

She bent down to his level, and kissed his forehead.

(Y/N) was flustered and awestruck for a moment, not knowing what to do or say.

' ' For now, you'll need to stay here. As soon as you can be released, I'll take you out for food. ' ' Makima said as she was standing back up.

After that, she left the room.

With nothing to do, (Y/N) fell asleep, listening to his thoughts as he drifted away.

-- 

It was a day later, and (Y/N) was finally released from the hospital. As Makima said, she took him out to eat.

' ' So, where would you like to eat? ' ' Makima asked him.

' ' Erm.. Anywhere with that sushi stuff that we ate that one time. ' '

She smiled at him, then said, ' ' Okay, let's go then. ' '

When they arrived, (Y/N) ordered multiple plates of it.

' ' You seem like you're enjoying it. ' ' Makima said with a giggle.

All (Y/N) could reply with was a ' ' MHM! ' ', muffled down by all of the food.

It took him nearly two hours to finish it all. He decided to eat it in a more respectful manner, seeing that Makima started talking, and waiting patiently.

' ' Thank you so much, Miss Makima. I owe you so much for this. ' '

' ' It's fine, you don't have to worry about it. ' '

They made idle chitchat walking back to Makima's car.

She wanted to know if he wanted to do anything else, but he said that he felt bad for making her spend all of that money on food, and persisted that he be dropped off at his house.

A few hours later, Denji and Power came knocking on (Y/N)'s door.

' ' Hey! You're finally awake, eh? ' ' Denji asked.

' ' Flame man! You're alive! ' ' Power yelled.

' ' Yeah, I'm awake. ' ' (Y/N) responded, simply.

' ' Come on! Stop being so moody! Let's go celebrate! ' ' Denji suggested.

' ' Celebrate what? ' '

' ' You waking up! DUHH! ' ' Power screamed at (Y/N).

Before (Y/N) could say anything, he was being dragged out of the door, and was brought to a small party.

There were three people that he knew, Power, Denji, and Aki. Then there were people that he didn't know. There was a girl with an eyepatch, a small, shy looking girl, and a big guy.

(Y/N) didn't eat, or drink anything. Denji tried to persuade him too, but as soon as he said no, Power took all of his food.

' ' It's mine, now! ' ' She said before she started eating it like a feral animal.

The party lasted for hours, and (Y/N) felt like he was an odd one out of the group. Everyone was talking to each other like they've known each other for years.

It took awhile, but the party finally ended.

It took (Y/N) nearly thirty minutes to get back to his apartment. When he finally did arrive, he couldn't even make it to his bed before he passed out on the floor, tired and worn out.
