His LavaGirl

Chapter 17

I was sitting in the hospital bed, looking at my hands as I glanced at the scars on my arms. I haven't seen my face yet but I was told that my body had healed but I had some nasty scars on my arms, my face and my torso. I don't remember anything, all I remember was the island and then everything was a void. My mom never left my side since I woke, making sure I was comfortable and that I was feeling okay. My dad had came back right away from his job, staying by my side as well. It was too weird for me, like something happened while I was out.

When I had asked them about what happened, they just dodged the question, telling me about my injures and that I wouldn't be doing anything for a long time until my body was at the point it can do exercises again. When I asked about school, my mom was the quickest person to say no and that I wouldn't be going back to school. I didn't argue because she seemed hell bent on me following her order. The doctors had explained to me that I would be discharged soon, and that I was okay to recover a bit more at home. My mom made sure the doctor told no one else, not even anyone from UA that comes to ask about me.

I glanced out the window, thinking about my friends and wondered they were doing. It took my a moment to realize that I was asleep for 5 months, and that when the heart monitor did the flat line, I was a goner. But somehow I woke up, and here I am alive with some new scars. My thought seemed to wonder off to Bakugo and how he was holding up. He probably was fighting with the teachers about something. But I wondered if he was arguing about me, and how I was feeling. I doubt that because he didn't seem like the person to care about someone but I couldn't help but to wonder. I want to see my friends, I want to hug them and tell them I am okay but I don't think my mom will let me leave her out of her sight now that I'm awake.

"Hey my little firefly." I turned my head, glancing at my dad as he walked into the room. He had a bag in hands and some hospital jello in his other hand.

"Hi...Dad." My voice was hoarse,  bit scratchy which I didn't mind. My body was probably still trying to figure out how to process some of the recovery and getting use to being awake.

"I got you some jello because you can't have anything hard at the moment. Then I got you some clothes from home to change into while your mom fills out the discharge papers." He explained as he walked over to me.

"I'm going home already? But my friends will want to see me." I watched him put the bag of clothes on the chair beside the bed and the jello on the tray. He took a seat on the edge of the bed and grabbed my hand.

"They aren't coming, firefly. It's best if you have no visitors until you are truly healed." He softly spoke to him, holding my hand in his own as I could only frown.

"But I wanted to see them.." I whispered, looking back at the window and just felt the wave of sadness hit me. 

"I know firefly but your mother wants you all healed before doing anything. I'll leave for you to get dress, I love you" He gave me a kiss on the forehead before getting off the bed and walking out of the room. 

I hadn't realized until now but I noticed one of his sidekicks outside of my room before the door closed. Why does my dad have sidekicks outside of my room? I decided that I will question him later about it and ask about school again. I can't not go to school now that I'm awake. I got off my bed carefully as my body was trying to find the balance of the weight of gravity again. I opened the bag of clothes and changed into them. I took off the hospital gown, glancing at my torso and noticing a huge burnt scar across my stomach. I lightly touched, trying to figure what would could've caused it. Everything that happened on the island was still a blur for me.

I changed into my underwear and sports bra, before putting on the sweatpants and sweatshirt that my dad brought. I didn't realize it until now that my hero costume wasn't around, what happened to that? I put on the hospital slippers before walking out of the hospital room. I glanced at the two sidekicks as they gave me a smile before escorting me to the hospital lobby where my mom and dad were waiting for me. It was like bodyguards non-stop all over again, and I hated it. As we approached the lobby, I had noticed my mom was talking with All might and some police officer. But it's All Might!
