Tiffany's POV
As I woke up my whole body was hurting. I winced in pain, I felt a hand squeeze mine so I slowly turned and saw a cute looking boy staring back at me. Oh my gosh, who was he? He smiled at me, it was warm and I felt like somehow he was a friend of mine? I wasn't 100% sure though. I weakly smiled back then turned to see Jo with some boy and my parents. I smiled at them as they smiled back. I looked around and found I was lying in a hospital bed, there were machines around me. What happened? Why was I here? "Mum" I said with a croaky voice, she came forward
"Yes?"
"Where am I?" she sighed and sat on the bed taking my hand from the boy and looking at me "Honey, you were in an accident. You've been in hospital for the past week in a coma" COMA!
Seriously, I'd missed a whole week of school and friends? Thinking of friends where was Amber and the girls? I looked around before asking "Where's Amber and the girls? Have they been already today?" I watched as my family looked at each other before I got an answer
"Um..." I watched my Mum sit there nervously
"Honey, Amber passed away a few weeks back. You only just got back from going to her funeral. Don't you remember staying with Joy?" I started to think but found my head to hurt.
My hands wrap my head as the pain got worse "Tiff? Are you okay? DOCTOR!......" I don't know what happened as everything went dark.
I woke up later to an empty room. I slowly opened up my eyes to see a nurse standing there, she was checking my blood pressure and a few other things "OH hey Tiffany. How are you feeling?" I looked at her
"Um...my head still hurts and so does the rest of me but I'm okay" she nods before placing some medication in the drip which was attached to my arm. Soon my eyes get heavy and I fall asleep.
Drake's POV
When she woke up I squeezed her hand to let her know I was here for her but when she looked at me it was like she was looking at a stranger. My hear almost stopped beating, she's forgotten me. Forgotten our love. Then when she asked about her dead friend I knew she'd forgotten the last few months of her life with me. I almost felt like I should give up but then she had a headache that she needed to be sedated for and then that was it. She was asleep again. Jo looked at me and gave me a weak smile "Drake, I'm sorry but we're going to have to ask you to leave. She doesn't seem to remember the move here or you and we don't want her to be too confused over everything. We'll call you when you can visit?" I nodded but the tears swelled up in my eyes.
I'd lost my truelove and now I had to walk away until she hopefully remembered me? WTF! I got up and shook her Dad's hand and her hug gave me a hug "Thanks for everything Drake. We'll keep in touch?!"
"Sure" I say softly.
I don't bother looking back because it will only break my heart.
I walk to my car only to hear my name being called. As I looked back I saw Jo running towards me. I stopped and waited "Drake!" she said puffed "Yeah?" I ask
"Don't worry. I've read about these things she just needs time to remember plus we have to do this slowly or she might forget everything. Do you have pictures of you guys together that I can show her, for her to remember you?" I grab my phone and start to look at the pictures of us.
I show her what I have "Will these help?" she flicks through them and smiles
"Text them to her phone or mine and write what you 2 were doing and I'll slowly show her and ask if she remembers"
"Sure, thanks Jo" she wrapped her arms around me and whispers
"It's going to be okay. She'll remember you.... In time" I nod as I start to cry.
She rubs my back and tells me again "She loved you Drake. I know she did she wrote it in her diary and I'll be showing her that too...when she's ready okay?" I smile weakly and nod
"Thanks Jo. Keep me updated okay?"
"I will" I watch her walk away as I climb into my car and drive home. Lost and confused!
Tiffany's POV
I was finally allowed home and it felt great. No more doctors and nurses poking at you, asking you the same questions every hour. I still had my casts on my arms and legs so I couldn't walk so Dad had to carry me to my room. It was weird because I don't remember it but I was slowly remembering things every day. My parents and Jo have been really helpful with pictures and stories and slowly the memories are coming back. I did ask my parents the day after I woke up about the boy who was holding my hand at the hospital but Dad said to wait but I didn't want to wait. He was cute and the way he looked at me with his eyes I could see the love he had for me in them. SO I wanted to know who he was so I've decided to ask Jo. She knows everything so I know she'll tell me. I just need to wait for some alone time with her before I can ask.
As Dad gets me out of the car to go inside I look around the neighbourhood and slowly I get flashbacks of me with a guy. We were laughing and mucking around. I'd be trying to read and he'd annoy me by covering my eyes or throwing things at me to get my attention. I smiled as I remembered this. I don't know who he was but I knew he was someone special in my life or a close friend? I was still bummed to hear about Amber, she was my best friend and now I can't even remember her funeral? What a great friend I was.
After Dad laid me down in my room I looked around and tried to remember things about it but nothing came to mind. Soon after my parents had finished fussing over me Jo came in. She'd been outside with her boyfriend Gabe, he seemed like a nice kid and I was shocked that Dad didn't mind them being together? Things have changed since our move, like a lot. Jo sat down next to me and she knew I'd want information so she closed the door and came back to sit down. She handed me my phone and I looked at it. There was a picture of me and that boy from the hospital, I quickly looked up at her "Who is he?" I asked and she smiled
"Look through your pictures to find out" I looked at her with disbelief but did as she asked.
Slowly I flicked through the pictures with Jo telling me the story of each one. Then I came across one where I was hugging this boy and he was kissing my cheek. We looked really happy, like extremely happy "Is he my boyfriend?" I ask looking at Jo again and she smiles widely "Could be?" She jumped to her feet and threw me a book.
I looked at it, it was a diary and as I opened it I realised it was my own diary "Read your diary to find out more.." with that she walked out closing the door behind her.
I looked at the book a few times then I slowly went through the pictures again. We looked happily in love, I smile as I get to the one where his kissing my cheek.
I laid back and got comfy before I started to read my diary. I was shocked with what I read and my last entry told me I'd lost my virginity to this boy 'Drake' I couldn't believe it. I was never a girl to do that and why would I have thought of doing it yeah it sounds like I was in love but we've only been together a few months and I gave him something special that I'll never get back. I closed the book and placed it under my mattress and sighed plus there was another boy in my diary – Rusty! He seemed like a big part of my life too so who were these boys and will I ever remember them? I close my eyes and fall asleep and dream.......
