Struck, by LOVE

Stay away

I woke up, and I heard someone calling my name.

Ugh, I probably have to wake up for school.

"Mmm, just five more minutes mom."

I was confused when she didn't reply. so I got up.

"Whoa whoa whoa, sit down. I don't want you getting hurt."

"Who are you?"

I looked at the mysterious man holding me up.

His eyes got big, and they swirled with hurt.

"What, what'd I do? Am I supposed to know who you are?"

That voice, who is that?

I looked around, and heard that voice again.

"NAIOMIIIIII!!!!"

The second I called her name, she burst through the door.

"SARAAAAAH!!!"

She squealed right back.

We spun in circles laughing and hugging each other.

Then my head started pounding.

"Ow, ow ow ow ow,"

"Ooops, sit down, you're gonna get hurt."

I looked over to the man.

"Can you give us a minute please?"

I said as politely and sweetly as I could.

The second he left the room I bursted.

"Who is that guy?!"

She looked at me. shock clear on her face.

"Wait, you, oh no, oh god no, this is gonna kill him..... this is gonna crush him to death....."

"What? What's going on here. why am I in the hospital? Why is me not knowing who the hell that guy was gonna kill him? Why am I heeeeere?! What's going ooooonnnnnn!!!!!!"

I cried as I just barely finished my sentence.

Naiomi wrapped her loving arms around me, and we sat there on the bed, holding each other, and I cried my heart out.

I went until there weren't any more tears left to give.

"So, what's the last thing you remember?"

"The last thing I remember.... is, me turning 16."

"Oh no....."

"What? What's wrong? Is that bad?"

"Sarah, well, you're 19. And the last thing you remember is turning 16. You're missing three years of your life. does that sound bad to you?"

I looked at her, and I broke down again.

"I don't remember the last three years of my life!!! How were my exams? Were they good? Did I finish senior year yet? Did we graduate? Where's mum?"

"Slow down, you didn't take exams, you were sick. we just started senior year, almost three months into the year. so, no, we haven't graduated yet. and, mums right out the door, sitting in a chair. probably talking to Seth about you not remembering him."

I nodded.

"Would you please go get her for me?"

She nodded.

A few moments later, I heard her voice.

"Sweetie? Are you alright? Does your head hurt?"

"I'm fine, my head hurts, a lot, and, I just found out, that I'm a senior in high school..."

"You've known that since you started the school year sweetie. wait, did you not remember that?! Wait, what do you remember?"

"Well, the last thing I remember is, my 16 birthday. with jace."

"Oh no, that's bad..."

"Seth! Can you please come in here?"

The man from earlier was in the room in an instant.

"Yes?"

"Seth, she doesn't remember anything after her sweet 16."

The man named Seth looked over at me. he was clearly hurt.

"So, am I just gonna sit here and listen to you guys talk about me all day, or is someone gonna tell me what's going on here."

"Well, I'm seth, your boyfriend."

"No, you're not my boyfriend. I have a boyfriend. and he's definitely NOT you."

He flinched at my words.

"You're my girlfriend, and I'm your boyfriend."

"No, jace is my boyfriend. not you."

He looked like I just kicked his puppy.

"I want jace here. bring me Jace please mum."

"No, you broke up with him two years ago."

"Oh..... then I'm single. cause I know for a fact that I would never be able to get a guy like him to be mine."

"Is that a compliment or an insult?"

"Both."

"Mum, can you take me home now? I wanna go home."

"I'm sorry sweetie. they have to keep you until your injuries heal better.

"What happened?"

"Well, you were hit by a car. and now your arm leg and two ribs are broken..."

I gasped, and tears streamed down my face. hard.

I took a deep breathe, and nodded.

"Ok, time heals all. right...?"

I looked slowly up to her, hope in my owly big brown eyes. "Then maybe time will heal your memory and you'll remember me?"

Said so called seth, as he grabbed my hand.

I pulled my hand away from the tingly feeling lightningly fast. "stay away from me. you did this. you did this to me!!!!" I gasped remembering the accident.

"You did this to me!!! You caused that accident!!! You did this!!!!"

I yelled in his face.

I collapsed back into my mothers arms, and wrapped my fragile little fingers into her silky shirt.

"Mum, he did this.... he caused that accident."

"What are you talking about?"

"Seth called me over to a tree, and I was running across the street to him, and BAM! That's when I got hit! So Seth caused this accident."

"It sucks that you'd remember the worst of all the things that had happened to you lately."

I nodded, as tears danced down my pale cheeks.

I hugged her closer, and fell asleep.
