saving you | kamijirou

twenty eight

jirou opened her eyes. she laid awake on her back, staring into... nothing? the confusion boggled her mind, so she got up and looked around.

it was a white room, blank and empty. there was no buildings, roads, cars, furniture, not even a single person walking. there wasn't a sun or moon, clouds or stars, but there was her shadow on the ground. it was like she was on a sheet of paper; blank and empty.

"a dream?" she thought.

wandering around, she looked at herself. she was wearing a hospital gown, wrapped in bandages, all her cuts clean. her bruises were still strong and painful, but it was like she couldn't feel anything.

"what's going on?" she mumbled.

"you're in heaven,"

jirou whipped her head around. her eyes lit up the moment she saw him, kaminari. there he was, standing with a bandaged wrapped around his head. his lip was nastily cut, and there were more bandages around his shoulder and arms.

"heaven...?"

"mhm—"

"wow it's boring. i thought it would have y'know, angels, clouds, angelic things,"

kaminari bursted out in laughter, his signature smile emerging. jirou's heart fluttered when she realized she made him laugh, making her warm inside. she smiled as well, but it quickly faded as she made a realization.

kaminari stopped laughing and looked puzzled, "what's wrong?"

"i-if this heaven.. does that m-mean..?" jirou's eyes starting to tear up.

kaminari's eyes widened, "no! no i'm kidding you, this isn't heaven! i don't even know what it is or why i'm here,"

jirou pouted, furrowing her eyebrows in confusion but also relief.

"i'm just glad i got to see you again,"

suddenly, the space around them began to turn grey and fade away. kaminari ran over to jirou and attempted to hold her, however he ran right through her. jirou gasped as she tried to grab him, but it was like he was a ghost.

"denki!" she shouted looking up at him.

it was like the dimension they were in was crumbling at their feet. they stood next to each other, unable to hold or touch one another.

"i'll come find you, i'm not losing you again," kaminari whispered, a promising look in his eyes.

and with that, their visions went black.

kaminari sprung up in bed, gasping for air. it looked like he woke from a nightmare, his face looking terrified. as he looked around, he realized he was in a hospital bed. kirishima, sero, and bakugou crowded around him on chairs or standing.

"kaminari!" sero shouted, throwing his hands in the air, "you're finally awake!"

kaminari furrowed his eyebrows, "how long has it been?"

"tch," bakugou grunted, "a day, you passed out and then we brought you here. you had a lot of injuries and a really ugly cut, so they put stitches on your shoulder,"

kirishima pushed bakugou lightly, "and this man was worried, pfft— hey!"

bakugou swatted his hand over the redhead's mouth before he could say anymore and kaminari laughed.

"are you guys injured too?" kami asked, noticing they were in normal clothes.

bakugou raised an eyebrow, "us? i'm perfectly fine, shitty hair over here got some treatment for small bruises. oh and the couple, half n' half and ponytail just have bandages over some cuts. it's you and music nerd who got pretty damaged,"
