It's been 2 years since everything changed, it was just my mind. I had learned that I was in a coma for 2 weeks. All the details had come back to me as I woke up the day after they had to restrain me, the crash, the last breathe my mom ever took, the last words she ever said to me. It was like my whole life was a lie, like god had lied to me. I hardly ever get out now I'm afraid that I'll just go back into my own world. I don't want people to call me crazy but that's what I think of myself as, crazy. You know when you first learn how to ride a bike and all the excitement floods into you, and you feel like you've accomplished everything? For me it's like all that excitement was knocked out of me and I was just alone completely. I tried not to express how I felt infront of everybody anymore, I hardly ever smiled. If I did it was fake. This "dream" I had made up in my mind still felt so real to me like I was still in love with Cameron, but that's the thing.
I still am.
It was now 9:13 in the morning and I had just layed in bed, trapped in my thoughts. My phone buzzed lightly and I knew it was Nicole. The text read, "Come have lunch with me please, I miss you <3." Today I felt like getting out so I decided to just answer with a simple "okay." I put on some casual clothes and did my hair as usual. I grabbed my phone and walked down to a little food place that we always used to go to, since I knew that's where she would've wanted to go. I sat there for atleast 30 minutes waiting for her to come through the door but she never showed up. After another 10 minutes went by I heard the light buzz my phone always makes and a message from Nicole appeared, "Something came up, I'm so sorry. Maybe next time? :(." I didn't answer and sighed to myself, while I stood up I ran into somebody spilling hot coffee everywhere.
"Watch where you're go-"
"I'm so sor- Cameron?" I whispered quietly.
"I'm sorry do I know you?" My heart literally dropped down to the pit of my stomach. I wanted to rip out my hair and scream but I couldn't I just put a pathetic smile on my face.
"Sorry I-I thought I knew you." I said shyly. His face softened and I felt myself relax, for the first time in 2 years.
"I feel like I know you from somewhere but I don't know where. Do you wanna maybe get some coffee sometime, only if that's okay?" He said with a blush creeping onto his face.
I felt a genuine smile spread across my face as I looked down at my hands and nodded my head. "I would love that."
