Utatane Piko x Reader - Trapped

Chapter 11

I slowly opened my eyes, blinking quickly as I took in glaring white light. I tried to sit up, but I felt so weak, and my back burned. I winced, trying to turn my head to look around. Why does everything hurt so much? I asked myself. I finally managed to get a decent look around me, enough to guess that I was in the hospital; for what reason, however, remained a mystery. I slowly felt my eyelids begin to gradually fall again, and I realized how tired I was. I simply gave in to the fatigue, and drifted off again.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*

I awoke again, and remembered that I was in the hospital, only this time, memories began to trickle back into my head. I remembered the rooftop occurrence with Piko. My eyes slowly widened at the shock of it all. My head hurt beyond anything I could imagine, and I figured that I must have gotten a concussion. I suddenly thought of the dream I had had while I was asleep. Why did I remember that now, of all times? I questioned, It was a dream, but it felt so real... My head splintered into pain again, and I cringed. The beeping of the heart rate monitor increased a little, and I tried to relax myself. I looked to my right and found a glass of water. I reached for it, and enjoyed the feeling of the cool liquid pouring down my parched throat. I replaced the glass and leaned back against the bed, closing my eyes. Just as I felt myself about to drift off, I heard approaching footsteps. I left my eyes closed, not wanting to lose the closeness to sleep that I had achieved. Another person walked over, and the two, apparently doctors, began talking about my condition, eliciting a spike of frustration as sleep drifted farther and farther away.

"She hasn't woke up yet..." one said.

"...Her medication, maybe?" the other replied. I listened closely, trying to catch more of their conversation, but they were talking so softly.

"If she doesn't wake up... not much we can do..." They were raising their voices a little more now, but I had heard enough. I stirred slightly, sighing and gradually opening my eyes. I squinted, searching the room as I had done the first time I woke up. When my eyes fell on the doctors, I had to suppress a laugh. The look of shock on their face was worth a million dollars. I blinked a few times, trying to look confused.

The first doctor finally recovered and spoke swiftly, "Ah, ___ I see that you are finally awake! This is wonderful news. We were beginning to worry about your condition, seeing as to how you've been out for nearly a week," A week?! "How much do you remember?" he inquired.

I hesitated, groping about for an answer. "Not very much," I said, trying to sit up. The second doctor quickly rushed over and gently pushed me back onto the bed.

"No, no, don't exert yourself just yet. You just came out of a coma, remember?" She was babying me, and I mentally cringed. I muttered a "yeah..." under my breath. I let my eyelids fall, evened my breathing, and acted as if I were asleep, hoping I could listen to the doctors talk more. I could tell they were watching me, but they remained silent for a while. After a few minutes, they began to talk.

"Are you sure she's asleep?" the second doctor questioned before continuing, "She can't be allowed to stay. Her condition isn't getting much better."

"I agree. She's too much of a threat, but there isn't much we can do either way. The Boss already told us..." I heard footsteps, and the two doctors grew quiet, waiting for the person to pass. Once the person had gone, they were stepping outside and I couldn't hear them anymore.

My mind was swirling with thoughts; Why am I such a threat? They never cared about me until now... I remembered the rooftop occurence again, and shuddered involuntarily; Why does this keep coming back to me? Was it... real? I shook the thought out of my head, and thought of Piko again. Where is Piko? How is he doing? What happened to him? I was suddenly filled with worry. Did they consider him a threat too? My stomach flipped over inside of me and I shut my eyes as much as I could, trying to keep the tears from falling. I managed to keep myself calm, but I couldn't stop the tears. Please Piko, be there when I get back... I-I... I miss you...

UGH I am sosososo sorry that this took so long to get out >n< I've been SUPER busy with HS and volleyball. I kept telling myself Okay, I'm going to update tonight! and then I wouldn't, so on Friday I would be like, Okay, now I'm REALLY going to update because it's the weekend! And then I wouldn't have time, BUT HERE IT IS! Finally, in all it's short and ugly glory >~<
Me: My writing... It sucks...
Everyone Else: Shaddup! It's good :D
Me: But... But... Isso badddd ;n;
Everyone Else: NUUUUUUUU SHADDUPPP
And that was an awkward random dialogue. In the middle of my A/N. O_O Gosh I need more sleep. So I'm really sorry that it's so short but it's getting harder and harder to update this because I'm getting closer to the crucial point where this could either go to a faster, happier ending or a longer, more complicated, sadder, and then happy ending. SO that being said, COMMENT if you have an opinion in the matter (although I'm probably going to write the longer ending anyways XD)

Once again, sorry that it took so long and that it's so short. (I just wanted to make sure that you guys knew I hadn't given up on it and that I'm still alive :P)
