I faced the ground, feeling like everything had just fell, crashing and burning at my feet.
"What do you mean?" Mr Aizawa asked. The doctor sighed.
"Ms Aizawa is currently in a coma due to the drug overdose" he explained, still holding onto the clipboard in his hand. I dropped my head further to cover my face with my bangs.
"Is there anything else?" Mr Aizawa asked.
"The knife did some serious damage that was hard to repair, even with healing quirks. Ms Aizawa may have permanent damage to her voice box and her wind pipe" the doctor explained. I squeezed my eyes shut. I was an idiot. I couldn't even help her when she needed it the most.
"Do you wish to see her?" the doctor asked. I lifted my head to see Mr Aizawa nod. The doctor bowed his head and turned around, walking out the door. I followed alongside Mr Aizawa to a room far down the corridor. The doctor pushed the door open and I walked in. The room was pretty empty, only having the bed, a cabinet, a couple chairs and some medical machines that were hooked up to Tamaki. The currants were drawn, blocking out any light that could come from the moon or the street lamps. Tamaki lay in the bed, hands pulled next to her sides. An oxygen mask was attached to her face which was probably what was helping keeping her chest rising and falling almost delicately if it wasn't for the slight shakes you could see every time she did. Her hair was strewn about, slightly greasy from the training that we had done over the past few days and her eyes were pressed shut, not being able to show the pain and fear that I had seen in them before. Mr Aizawa said something to the doctor and they both exited the room but I didn't listen. I walked over to Tamaki and sat in one of the bed's taking her hand gently and rubbing my fingers along the soft skin.
"I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry Tamaki. I should have been there. I should have insisted on being there for you and then you wouldn't be here" I apologized, not being able to stop the tears that gushed from my eyes. I pulled up my free hand and wiped my eyes to try and dry them but more tears just took the place of the old ones. I leaned my head against the mattress of the bed and just let the tears fall freely.
"I'm so sorry. You deserve so much better. Someone who won't submit like a puppy and leave you alone when you're going through a hard time" I explained, pulling my hand back from Tamaki's hand. I bowed my head and let out a long breath. Tamaki deserved better. She was such a beautiful kind person. Everything that was happening, she didn't deserve.
"I'm so sorry Tamaki" I whispered, running my hand through her hair.
"Please wake up soon" I whispered.

It's a little short but I couldn't do much more.

Also I have a strange habit of putting characters in the hospital for either injuries or coma's. Huh.
