A month home. I had more of a routine now. Sleep came slightly easier. It became clear that this wasn't a dream. I was really free. Andrew was really in jail.
The hospital was still just a place that smelled like sterilization and was way too loud. I hated it. I was sitting in the hall with Ma's phone.
GoneClubbing: So no change?
FreshPoof: Nope.
DannyDecano: Dang. Sorry Fresh :(
FreshPoof: It's alright. It's not like I've been around to miss him…
GoneClubbing: Aww don't say that Fresh! It's not your fault.
DannyDecano: Hes right Fresh.
Fresh didn't get the chance to respond. There was a commotion inside the room. Coughs and voices.
Fresh scrabbles to his feet and headed inside. There was a nurse, ma, and Error. Asy was visiting his sister. "Ma? What's goin on?"
Ma turned on her heels. There were tears in her eyes. "He's awake."
My soul skipped. "Geno?" I walked over fidgeting with my hands.
He coughed quietly and looked over. He looked tired and sickly and in pain. His socket widened. "F-Fresh?" he stuttered out.
"Hey there." I flashed a small smile.
"How..?" he coughed.
"It's a long story Geno I'll tell you when you're better." Telling him now would only make him feel worse. He could wait.
"Okay..." he whispered. His throat must be raw.
"I missed you." I whispered quietly.
"Missed you too." Tears pooled in his eye.
" You should rest." Ma whispered petting Genos head.
Geno nodded and wavered a bit. "Error..?"
"I'm still here." Error squeezed Geno's hand.
I looked down and rubbed my arm. This felt wrong. I was never… in these things before. I was always distant.
I wish I could distance himself now. I reached out and clutched Ma's arm. I want Deccy or Club.
"Do you want to go back outside..?" she asked softly.
I nodded. "Please…" I squeezed her arm.
"Go on. It's okay." She whispered, wiping her tears.
I nodded and headed back outside.
FreshPoof: He's awake.

Refresh: Alternate Story
FanfictionSo this is an idea I've had since I did that one oneshot about the alternate story. Fresh is rescued a lot earlier as a 10 year old. Geno is sick and in the hospital, Decans lives far away, and Error isn't sure how to act. Also. Baby Subway :3 Momma...
