Love will remember

Chapter 41

*Maddie's Pov*

Its now the next mroning and I am being woken up by a very annoying banging at the door. I turn and look at the clock on the bedside to see it is only 8am. What the Hell. I roll out of bed and make my way sleepily to the door. Swinging the door open I am met with Tristan. Smiling wide looking down at me like an excited puppy.

'Tris-' He cuts me off with his loud excited voice
'Its time for you to remember me' I look up in utter confusion
'What?'

'Well you remember everyone right?' I shake my head 'apart from me and Brad' I then nod my head in cofirmation 'okay so its time you remember me'
'But how? I want nothing more but how?'
'Easy, we will spend this morning together, I will tell you about every moment we shared and I am hoping that will trigger something. It just has to Mads. I miss you'

My heart breaks even more at the sound of his words and voice. He is so desperate for me to remember that it reminds me of how desperate Brad is, but once again he has never pushed me to remember. He's been so patient with me, loving and caring and all I have done is work harder to remember everyone other than him and then say the words I knew would hurt him. I move to the side to allow Tristan into the room.

He runs to the bed and begins rambling but I'm not really listening, I just staring at him as he jumps around re-telling me the memories that I have forgotton and all I can think about is Brad. Where is he? He didnt come back last night. Did I really break him that badly? Of course I did, I knew what I was doing. I'm such a bitch.. I am snapped from my thoughts when I hear something that strikes my heart

'Okay so it all started when you came to school. You were the new girl' those simple words. My heart pumps faster as I try and work my brain to understand why those words, strike me so much. What is it about those words? I keep trying to this but seeing Tristan act out another memory, snaps me from my thoughts once again as my memory flashes before me

-FlashBack-

'Tris come on, run faster' I was currently on Tristan's back and Nat was on Brad's. We were having a race to see who was faster, and we were neck and neck. I couldn't stop my self from laughing, I dont even know how this idea came up but it has and we are loving it. Everyone else is just watching us, as we try to beat one another. I don't exactly know why I am on Tris' back, he just said jump and I did, before I knew it I was on his back and we are racing Brad and Nat.

As we continue to run I notice that we are very close to the waters edge, I lean down to Tris to whisper 'We're to close to the water' just as I had said it, Brad and Nat both push us and all I can remember before being engulfed in water is the cheers from Nat and Brad at wining the race.

As me and Tris comes to the surface we both burst out laughing at our own stupidity. 'Tris.... we're not a very clever team'
'No but we are a very cool team' I laugh again as I jump on him pushing him under, when we are then joined by everyone else.

-FlashBack end-

I stand frozen at the memory, not only did I remember Tris but I remember a memory, a full memory with Brad in it. Us both laughing, the way we looked at each other. I knew in that moment that I have to find Brad, I have to remember. I need to remember. Tris stops and looks at me in confusion so I decide it's time to tell him

'Just stop' I say with my voice raise
'Mads? Im just tryin-' I cut him off
'Tris, you know we're not a very clever team' I begin to smile as I watch it hit him. His voice goes from sadness to happiness in a second As his face lits up and his eyes begin to shine.

'No but we are a very cool team' He runs to me picking me up off the floor, spining me around, we both being laughing.
'I love you Tris. I've missed you' I cuddle into him, feeling emotional that I have remembered all my friends. Finally.
'I missed you to. Ah I love you mads'
'Tris I gotta go friend Brad. I need to remember him. Tell the others okay?'

He nods into my neck, before placing me to the floor. We both give each other a final smile before I walk from the room, down the hall way and to the lift. Once in the lift its when I notice that all I have on is my underwear and Brad's artic monkeys top. I dont exactly know what processed me to put it on last night, but I was just drawn to it. And before I knew what I was really doing, I had it over my head and wrapped around my body. I run from the lift and through the hotel.

As I stand on the outside of the hotel, I see Brad across the street, he's stood in last night's clothes looking out at the sea and sun that's risen. I begin to walk towards him as I shout 'Brad'. He snaps his head around and begins to smile until he looks to the right of him. His face drops and he begins to run, I take a look to the right and my eyes widen. As I hear Brad shout 'No MADS'
