Getting out of the kids grip he wiped away the bit of blood from his mouth that seemed like it was from a lucky hit, the crowd practically opened up before him, except for you, standing there like an idiot, he grabbed your hand and dragged you off the other four kids and a few others being gathered up and taken to the nurse. You both skipped the rest of the day which was only two classes, and you had to convince Sollux to go to the nurse, the earlier injury may be worse after that lucky hit; which it wasn't and you both go to your apartment and sleep Sollux on the couch and you in your bed.
When you woke up you don't remember much from yesterday, its blurry...Your laying on the couch and your head hurts really bad, what even happened yesterday you wonder...then it all came back to you...Eridan, the 'Popular' kids he called them and the jocks you beat the shit out of...your not shocked when theres a rapid knocking on the door, but before you cold get up to answer Eridan does while he tells you to sit the hell down. The person at the door is the football couch actually and thats where you get concerned, he sees you and calls you over, Eridan lets him in and he walks over to you and begins to tell you off,
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOUR DOING, FUCKING UP FOUR OF MY BEST PLAYERS WE HAVE A GAME TONIGHT AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO PLAY, WANT TO KNOW WHY? BECAUSE A STUCK UP BRAT TOOK ALL FOUR OF THEM ON AND BROKE A FEW RIBS AND BONES!"
"This do you have any idea what your playerth did to another thudent?"
"DONT BACK SASS ME SON, AND DONT THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS, I HAVE THE HEADMASTER ON YOUR ASS RIGHT NOW, YOUR OUT OF THIS SCHOOL!"
"THIR YOUR PLAYERTH HAVE BEEN BULLYING AND HUMILIATING THIS THUDENT RIGHT HERE! LATHT I CHECKED, IT WATH AGAINTHT THE LAW TO BULLY!"
That made the man go silent but his face was red with quiet anger, which only made Sollux smirk since he knows he got the guy, now he just had to finish it.
"did you know you could get fired for harathing a thudent? I mean you were in my fathe and thaying thome nathty thingth, all I would have to do ith report it to the headmathter, I altho have a witneth right here if you think you can get away with it"
Coach Zahhak left after that grumbling to himself while you sat there in quiet victory. Eridan came up to you, his eyes were wide with fear as he looked at you and your smile faded to confusion.
"whatth wrong ED?"
"Did you really break bones sol..."
"I gueth...I don't remember actually, itth been a while thince I wath like thith..."
"wwhat do you mean?
"I'm diagnothed with bipolar dithorder...you didnt know?'
"no, wwhen wwas this? Wwhy didnt I hear of this sol?
"when I wath thix I think...and you probably didnt hear of it becauthe I dont like talking about it"
"oh...wwell okay I guess, does that mean you take pills and such?"
"nope, ii hate them, they dont work and the doctors jutht crank up the dothage and it doethn't help either, I got thent to the ER once for an 'overdoethe' when it wath my doctors fault...courthe they didn't believe me"
"wwell then..."
"yeah but whatever, doethnt matter anymore"
you both sat there in silence till Sollux tried to get up then fell the room spinning around him till everything went black, panicking you called 911, the nurse wouldn't be here yet and an ambulance would be here in only a few minutes, you told them where you were and then waited, soon the siren of the ambulance was heard and Sol still wasn't awake, even when they put him on the roller he didn't wake up, when you tried to go with they stopped you quickly telling you that you would be in the way and that he may be in critical condition. Telling you to drive to Maryam Hospital and left with Sol leaving you alone.
Grabbing your keys you go and drive to the hospital, going to the emergency center and doing the normal signing in and filling in some information then your sent to the room where they have Sollux held room 224, when you walk in the doctors there and Sollux is just waking up, so you stay by the door neither of them noticing you.
"...w...where am i"
"Your at the hospital son, how are you feeling?"
"my head hurtth...and I feel dizzy.."
"Alright, do you mind explaining what could have caused this?"
"I fought four football jockth...and won..."
"Well then, I was wondering who had done that...we had treated them earlier their coach was furious when he came in"
The doctor seemed to be holding in laughter while writing some things down but from your point of view you couldn't see what he was writing, not wanting to make yourself known still you stayed where you were looking around the room, when they started speaking again you started listening again.
"tho...whatth wrong with me exactly?"
"Nothing much, you just seem to have been knocked up a bit, did you get hurt before the fight at all?"
"I fell off a treadmill..."
"ah, so when you got into the fight it triggered a migraine if im correct? and thats partly why you collapsed, you also have a few bruises and a sprained wrist, other than that your fine and we'll keep you here for the day just so you dont have a concussion, just to be sure"
"oh...alright then I gueth"
"Yep, oh and you have a friend here, their probably coming up now"
That was your cue to knock, doing so they both jump and you walk in feeling awkward after quietly watching like you weren't here and now walking in acting like you really weren't there which made you nervous. But you get a grip and go sit in the chair by Solluxs bed looking at the doctor.
"wwell...um wwhats wwrong wwith him exactly? Wwas it the fight or somthin else that made him collapse?
"Oh yes, Mr. Ampora was it? Sollux is fine he just had a migraine or a possible concussion so we'll be keeping him in here for the day."
"oh wwell thats fine I guess...Sol do you havve classes today?
"nope which ith good I gueth"
The Doctor nods and leaves now your both in the room alone and your secretly freaking out, you pull out your phone and decide to text Karkat since he didint know what was going on yet, or he heard the rumors and was waiting for you to start a conversation...either way it didnt matter.

"yeah, but I gotta go I havve classes I cant skip, alright? Ill be back later to come get you so just text me or somethin"
He scribbled his number on your hand and walked out with a wave leaving you alone with your cell phone, you find out that he brought you your laptop and go on WOW bored out of your mind, grabbing your cell you put his number in and go back to your laptop pulling up a simple code you had to make for computer science. Your name is Sollux Captor and you suddenly remember why you hate Hospitals...
