Another chance Book I - Y/N

Chapter 39: I'm sorry.

Date: 12. August.2005 / Friday

It's the next day and you're finally free again.

The nurse got rid of all the dumb wires around your body and the machines surrounding you disappeared.

Well not entirely disappeared, they just shoved your bed into another room. But anyways, you can finally move around freely again!

It's around noon when you get a message from Mikey saying that he'll come over now. Recalling what happened yesterday you start to rub your arm nervously at the thought of seeing him again.

.

.

Damn. I have to somehow apologize to him... .

But how? It's so awkward now.

I could just hug him a few day ago like it was nothing, but now... .

I'm too self-conscious to do something like that to make up... .

So, do I just say sorry? Just like that?

...

Why is it so hard! Damn it!

You think troubled, burying your head into your hands.

.

.

You sigh tiredly before you check your phone again to see if that unknown number wrote something. But to your dismay, nothing happened.

You let out another sigh when the door to your room suddenly opens, revealing Mikey standing in it, with his all so known deadpan expression on his face.

You tense up at his presence when he suddenly smiles kindly to you.

"Took me a whole lot of time to find you. You could have told me that they moved you to a new room Yurei-chin.", he says calmly before he shots you a bright grin.

"Uhh... . Sorry.", you mumble nervously while Mikey makes his way over to your bed. He chuckles amused before he pads you head a few times.

You're taken aback at his action and look down to your hands embarrassed before you start to fidget with your hand nervously.

"Um... . M-Mikey. I-I... . Um... .", you stutter nervously, your eyes still fixated on your fidgeting hands. "I-I'm-... ."

"Shall we go to the rooftop now?", Mikey suddenly says, smiling at you before his face goes blank again.

"...sure.", you mumble slightly confused while you observe him nervously. "I'll get up. Wait a moment."

After you sputtered it out agitated you try to get off the bed as fast as you can. But forgot one significant thing while doing so. You were in Coma for one week and just because of that your body's not ready to just walk around that easily.

Your feet finally touch the ground but before you can stand up correctly they give up under you and you fall.

Right in front of Mikey's feet.

Mikey was spaced out, standing a few feet away from you while facing the window. So, he didn't make it in time to catch you and now you're sitting on the floor kinda confused why.

"...are you okay?", Mikey asks after an awkward moment of silence. He holds his hand out to you to help you up.

Thankfully you take it, and he helps you sit back onto the bed. You glance up at him embarrassed before mumbling. "What the hell just happened... ? Why can't I stand anymore?"
