~~~~~~Michael POV~~~~~~~

I stayed in the hospital for three more weeks.

Ally was there almost all the time , but she would stangely leave minutes before anyone ever walked into the room.

The first time my moms visisted, which took them a while because they were on vacation, they completely freaked and cried. They were so over-dramatic all I could do was laugh.

When they noticed I was laughing, one said something along the lines of "Such a strong boy, laugh through the pain." I literally d i e d.

Jeremy didn't visit. I'm beginning to think Ally made that up to make me feel better......, I want it to be true though.

I went back to school a week after I got out of the hospital.

I expected to go back to normal, but when I got there I was immediately was bombarded with a bunch of kids asking what happened.

Apparently there was a bunch of rumors going around that I had done a bunch of amazing stunts to get out of the building, some kids even said they saw me doing these stunts.

Even though I tried to tell them I didn't do any stunts, they said about how modest I was.

It was pretty cool to have so many people suddenly like me, but then again my social anxiety had other thoughts about all these people I didn't know talking to me. A few girls even flirted with me! Sadly for my gay ass no guys flirted with me.

Eventually people stopped bothering me and went to there lockers. THANK THE FLYING SPAGHETTI MONSTER!

I got my books and headed for homeroom.

~~~~~~~~Ally's POV (out of body)~~~~~~~~~~

The story of the fire spread through the school like, well, a wild fire. After about 2 days the whole school knew, but they wanted to keep spreading stories about the fire. It was at this point that the teachers made us sign two get well cards for the people who were hurt by the fire. one for Rich, the other Michael. The fire tri-force was set up. (Those of you who get that reference I love you, (hint it's not from the Zelda franchise.))

The rumors started with a question "What happened to Michael?" A few people shared stories of seeing him do some act of strength and bravery, like kicking down a door or running through fire.

Soon it morphed into more dramatic things like saving other people by holding up whole walls and stuff like that.

Michael became sort of a legend.

Everything was going according to plan.

An: as I'm writing this (at 1 am) my dad is downstairs playing silent night on my piano. I think he's drunk. Well anyway thank for reading (btw the fire tri-force was a reference from game theory, specifically the one about charmander's tail) tell me what you think the other stunts were, I'm sure you guys are much more creative than me, damn it now don't hug my I'm scared one is playing in my head.  Damm it I'm rambling, bye!
