I'm Sorry

Am I dead? Ugh what's that bickering that I hear? It's giving me a headache. It almost sounds like Toshinori

I tried to open my eyes, but my whole body feels so heavy. "Michelle." I'm finally able to open one eye at the time. I'm blinded by the bright light from the room that I am in, but my vision starts to clear up as I see my thin brother with a doctor next to him. "You're finally awake." My brother smiles at me as he cups my hand. "Ms. Yagi,  My name is Dr. Sakura. How are you feeling?" she smiles at me as she starts writing on her clipboard. "Amazing. I'm actually ready to go on a long run right now." I tried to laugh but it turned into a cough very quickly. "Nice to see that you're recovering quickly. You've only been asleep for about 8 hours.. I'm surprised you've woken up so rapidly. Do you know why you're here?" I looked at my brother and I knew no matter what kind of joke I tried to throw to smooth out the truth, it would just cause him more pain. I squeezed his hand as my eyes started to get glossy. "I'm sorry." I whispered to him.

"Your results came back with a high level of alcohol, and three narcotic substances. Ms. Yagi." I turned to the doctor who was reading the chart. "Wait three?" The doctor raised her eyebrow. "As I suspected Ms. Yagi. It seemed like someone gave you a high dose of a drug that makes you not only hallucinate, but also lose consciousness." Someone spiked me? But who?  "Your liver is starting to get very weak Ms. Yagi. I do suggest to really cut out alcohol, and all bad habits that you have. You had a broken arm and a few broken ribs, but Recovery Girl has helped you with that. Just don't do too much movement and you'll be fine. I'll leave you two alone. I'll be back later in the day to check up on you." She smiles at me as she walks out the room. I looked down to see Toshinori's hand squeezing me. I'm too embarrassed to look at him. "If you're going to scold me , just please don't yell." I immediately get pulled into a hug. "You idiot. Why would I scold you? I was so worried about you. I'm..I'm so glad you're alive. I'm sorry for not being there." He cried into my shoulder. I was shocked at his reaction. He barely scolded me when we were growing up, but still I was reckless. No matter what I really did his reaction worried instead of anger. "Gosh I am lucky to have you as a brother." I sniffed as I hugged him back. "Wait, can you say that again? I want to record that!" He pulls away trying to get his phone out. I quietly laugh at his dumb tactic.

Suddenly the door slides open revealing principle Nezu with a police officer. Just my luck. "Ah Ms. Yagi, I am glad you are awake and well. I was very worried about your well being." I nodded at him, terrified that I screwed up and I was about to get kicked out of the country. "This is Detective Tsukachi." Nezu introduces him as the man bow. "I'm here to ask you a few questions about last night Ms. Yagi." I looked towards my brother. "I'll be ok. Can you bring me some jello please?" I smiled at him, trying to reassure him that I'll be fine alone. There are just some things I want to do by myself. It's my mess and I don't want to be more of a burden to him. My brother changed into All Might and said his goodbye as he exited the room.

Detective Tsukachi asked pretty much every detailed question about what happened to me last night. I was embarrassed to trauma dump on him, so I was relieved that he didn't touch too much on why I wanted to drown myself in alcohol. What he wanted to know was who was the person who drugged me. I avoided the part that Hawks gave me anything and instead I just said it was some random guy who gifted it to me in the back. I knew he already looked through the cameras so I did need to bring up Hawks in my story and make it clear that he's just a friend. I did tell him about the water bottle incident. "Did you have any idea what the guy looked like?" he asked me. "No, to be honest I was really drunk. All I remember was that he had curly hair and was wearing a big jacket. Almost like it was covered with feathers." Shit, was I that high?  "I'm sorry, but that's the only information I have on the stranger." Tsukachi looked up from his notebook. "No need to be sorry. All this information is very useful, thank you." He smiled at me, as he buried his face back into his notebook writing more notes.

"Ms. Yagi, as I am very relieved you are safe, we do now need to talk about other serious matters." I'm fired. "It is a very serious crime to consume any sort of substances here in Japan. I understand your history of addiction and I do want to keep my promise I gave you when I picked you up from Mexico. The hero commission all together we came to an agreement that you will only have this as your first and last warning. No serious action will be taken against you." I bit my lip so much I think I might have cut it since I started to taste something metal. "You will need to attend weekly therapy sessions as well as N.A meetings. I trust you will stay sober not only for your own health, but for your students as well." My students. I've only been a teacher for a week, but now that I remember, I always have at least 2 students following me everywhere I go. It's always  been Denki and Tsuyu following me wanting to get more help.  I was beating myself and isolating myself mentally that I didn't notice the change I was already creating in their lives. "I agree with the terms Principle Nezu. I will do as you say. Thank you very much." I gave him a close smile as tears were falling onto my hands that were grasping on the bed sheet. They both got up from their chairs and right when they were about to leave the room. "Wait, who brought me here?" I asked. Principle Nezu gives me a closed eye smile and leaves me alone in the room confused.

I get up slowly from my bed, dragging the IV machine that I'm connected to with me to the restroom. I turned on the light and walked up to the mirror. I have a bandage wrapped from the top of my forehead all the way down to my nape making it look like I had a headband on. My lip is cut from the biting I just gave myself, and a  small bandage going through the middle of my right eyebrow. "That'll probably leave a scar." I tell myself as I touch it. "I told you to leave!" I hear my brother outside my room arguing. It's very rare hearing him mad to be honest. Can it be paparazzi? I doubt it though, so who is he yelling at? "What's going on?" I slide the door open and All Might turns around shocked like if he just got caught doing something he wasn't supposed to be doing. I peeked over his shoulder and Aizawa was standing there looking down to the floor, holding a plastic bag. I looked back at my brother giving me an awkward smile handing me the jello that I've asked for. "What are you doing here?" I asked as I kept my eyes glued to the gloomy man. "He's about to leave-" "Enough All Might." I snapped my eyes at him as I took the snack from his hand. He huffed, relaxing his shoulders and walked away. "Can I come in?" Aizawa asked, finally making eye contact with me. I moved to the side allowing him to walk in. I slowly walked towards my bed and I tense up as I feel a hand on the side of my ribcage. I looked up and I saw him holding on to my IV machine and helped me walk over to my bed and set me back in.

"How are you feeling-" "Was it you who brought me here?" I interrupted him. "Yes. It seems like no matter what I always find you in the middle of nowhere." he moves the metal tray towards me to my side  and starts taking out my favorite snacks. Strawberry milk, more jello, and my favorite matcha ice cream. "Why?" I asked, looking at the food. "I wasn't going to just leave you there." "No." I grasped onto the bed sheet. "Why are you doing this? Why are you helping me? This past week you've been ignoring me.Do you have any idea how that made me feel? If you feel pity for me then leave." I furrow my eyebrows trying to keep a serious mad look. I don't want to cry in front of him. I can't show him that weak side of me. "It's not out of pity, Yagi. I know we haven't talked in years, but seeing you last night gasping as if it was your last breath." He huffed out and brushed his hair back, showing his pale face with bagged eyes. I know he barely gets sleep, but it looks even worse. I can't tell well due to his baggy clothes, but he looks even skinnier. "Just because we broke up, does not mean I can't care about you." He took a seat on my bed, facing me. "I'm sorry that I have been distancing myself from you I- I've been trying to figure out how to be friends with you again. I want to be there for you no matter what. You will always be someone important to me in my life Yagi. I'm sorry for making you feel bad." I couldn't help it. It's like my own body has its own mind. I pulled him by his shirt towards me and I wrapped my arms around his torso as I cried into it. "You idiot." Was the only thing I could get out. I felt his arms wrap around my body and his head laid on top of mine. It was a feeling that I never thought I would feel again. Not only was I feeling comfort, but I was starting to feel the void in my heart slowly fading away.
