The Only One For You. || Pete x Mike [PIKE]

{~Chapter5~}

~PetePOV~

When I woke up, I was at the hospital, looking around I could see I had a knee brace on and I was in a hospital bed, when a doctor walked in and asked me if I felt ok, I responded "Yea, I'm fine.", "Great! Other than that knee brace and the few stitches on the left side of your face, you're free to leave!" She said, "Ok... where's Vamp- uhh, Mike?" I asked, "Oh, Mike Makowski? He passed out due to internal blood loss, he had fractured a few ribs, I think he's awake, his room is b45, he can't leave just yet he has to stay another month before he can go home, you're free to visit though." She answered, as I quickly got up and left to find him.

About 2 minutes of walking goes by and I find his room, I walk in as fast as I can, "Va- Mike!" I loudly said, "Oh, hey Pete." He said softly, "So, a month of being here? Huh, conformist." I mocked jokingly, sitting down in the chair next to his bed, "Hah, yea, I guess you get to leave then, by the way you're acting per se." He replied, "Yea, Uhh- do you want anything from home?" I asked, "No, my dad's already getting stuff, that's why he's not here." He softly laughed, "I heard you fractured a few ribs, how the hell did you carry me?" I questioned, "Guess I'm just that strong." He said, then added, "Though I suppose the real reason would be the adrenaline, and shock per se.", "Yea, though you must be pretty strong to be able to throw 'pig boy'." I joked, "Hah, yea, yea, I guess I am!" He laughed lightly, "Hey, quick question.." he said, "Shoot." I responded, "Umm. Just about a week ago, you hated me. What changed?" He asked in a confused tone furrowing his brows, "Uhh, well.." I paused, "I guess I don't really know, I just suppose I realized that, you may look cringe, and annoying, and draining to be around but.." I paused again and thought carefully about what I said next, "You're not, you're actually nice, kind, and enjoyable to be around.." I stated.

~MikePOV~

I smiled warmly at this statement, "Uhh.. but- you're still a lame conformist!" He quickly added, "Dude, it's okay." I said, softly placing my hand over his, "You can relax around me, it's not like I'm gonna tell anyone." I laughed, his face then softened as he rested his head on my shoulder and said "That's good..." And fell asleep, I felt my face warm as I slowly shut my eyes, 'I like this.' I thought quietly to myself, 'But we're just friends...' I added falling asleep.

About an hour later my dad walked in accidentally waking me up, "Heyy budd, oh sorry did I wake you?" He asked in a whisper, "Uhh, no, you're good." I lied, "Oh okay, hows your boyfriend?" He asked mockingly, I was already out to my dad, I had been for awhile he wasn't very surprised when I came out, I had also told him about my crush on Pete, well, he over heard me and my friends talking about it in my room one time and now he knows, I went red in the face at this joke, "Daaadd- he's right there." I whispered pointing at Pete, "Well, I mean you have your whole life to tell him, but you know better sooner than later, that's what your Mother always says." He said laughing, Pete stirred, nearly waking, "Dad." I shushed, "oh right sorry." He whispered sitting in the seat opposite the bed as Pete had fallen asleep in the one next to my bed, "So what are you planning on doing when you get discharged?" He asked, "Umm, well not much, I'll probably take it easy for a while, but, I'm pretty sure this kid, Clyde is throwing a party and another kid, uhh Tolkien? Yea he's throwing a party at his house next month that I kinda wanted to go to?" I asked, "Sure, just don't drink and drive, ok?" He said, "Ok" I laughed softly before I added, "I probably won't be drinking anyway..", "Ok good." He checked the time, "Sorry kid, I gotta go to work, I'll see you in a bit?" He said, "Yea, bye Dad." I waved, "Bye." He said leaving the room. 'Well there's not much to do', I thought to myself, 'I guess I could go back to sleep, these pain meds are pretty tiring.' I said to myself as I drifted off to sleep.

~~~Time skip~~~
They are now both out of the hospital and have been hanging out more often, as Mike has been suspended for beating up Cartman. This is his last day of suspension.
