The Boy At The Stables~Chapter 12~

Josh paces the waiting room carefully; anxious to see JJ. I fell asleep in the car on the way to the hospital; exhaustion finally taking over my body. I gripped tightly onto the bag which contained JJ's clothes and other belongings as I sat on the bench in the waiting room; awaiting the nurse to call us in. Ticking from the clock echoed in my head as I glanced up at the time; 6:33pm; 6 hours after the accident.

'Where is the nurse? She should be here.' Just as Josh finally lost patience, the door opened; followed by not the nurse, but JJ's family.

'Eva!'

The little girl's voice bought a million memorys tumbling back into my mind at once; and I instantly remembered everything about her and the rest of JJ's family who stood behind her. The little girl's voice was the voice of JJ's little sister.

'Otea!' I smile; picking her up as she runs into my arms.

'How..How do you remember?' I hear a womanly voice say from behind the doorwatmy. It was JJ's mum. I hug Otea tightly then place her safely back onto the ground.

'Sit down, please, I'll explain to you.'

We sat down together, and although she was shocked and confused at how I had remembered in that split second; she was incredibly happy.

'I don't remember everything; just bits at the moment. But I do remember you; however vague it might be.' She smiles as I tell her; squeezing my hand as tears form in her eyes.

'I've missed you, we've missed you. JJ missed you.' she admits.

'We don't care how long it takes; just keep trying to remember more.'

I glance up to see Josh in the background. His face is turned away from me, but I could tell that for some reason, JJ's mum's reaction to me remembering her had upset him; as if he was jelous. Creasing my eyebrow, I got up from the my seat and walked over to him.

'Josh, are you ok?' I ask worryingly.

'Eva, I-' he begins; only to be interupted by the nurse entering the room.

'JJ's girlfriend and friend?'

'Yes, that is us.' Josh answers.

'JJ is ready for you now. Although he is still unconscious, he can hear everything you are saying.'

'I'll be back soon; we can talk a lot more then.' I say; forcing a smile at JJ's mum and little sister; but they could sense my nerves.

As the door closed behind me, Josh and the nurse, she began to explain how JJ looked different after the surgery and was incredibly lucky as the swell hadn't caused any damage to his brain. She explained further that he was still in a coma, but could hear everything around him.

But these were just words. No-one could of been prepared for the sight of an injured loved one; because I was'nt prepared.

The same numb feeling after the race almost paralyzed my body again as we entered JJ's hospital room nearby. A part of his jet black hair had been shaven away; bloody skin now covering the spot from surgery. His once tanned skin was now pale and his hazel/brown eyes; once bright and happy were now shut tightly from the World. Even his lips were pale. Wires surrounded his body, and different machines made unnatural sounds. I felt my knees begin to buckle beneath the stress of this reality but I resisted to collapsing; I knew I had to keep strong. Not only for me but for Josh. Not only for me, but for Otea and JJ's mum. Not only for me, but for JJ.

I walk quickly towards his body; collapsing in the chair next it. I took a deep breath before talking to him.

'JJ, JJ I'm sorry. This entire thing is my fault. I can remember you now, and Josh, and Jaymi. I can remember Otea and your mum. I can't remember everything, yet, but I remember one thing...Well, I don't just remember it, I know...I love you.' I stop talking; tears now streaming down my face. Wiping them away, I gently hold onto his hand. It's cold and rough with dirt from the race-track. Gathering my composure, I stand up again and lean into his ear.

'Thank you, for saving my life. Not only did you save it, you helped me get it back. Thank you.' I whisper; my whisper now full of happiness and gratitude. I sit back down in the chair; still holding onto JJ's hand and forgetting Josh was still in the room.

Until I hear Josh's voice again say words; words I have heard before; causing my mind to spiral from the hospital and relive another onve forgotten memory.

I'm in my mum's house; in the kitchen with Josh. His body is close to mine; so close that I can feel the heat of his breath against my skin. His blue eyes are causing a feeling throughout my body; a safe and loving feeling; a feeling I had only ever experienced with JJ. His lips are gradually getting closer and closer to mine; intimately close. Until they press against my own; kissing me passionately. I am only reliving a memory, but I know it is still wrong. I push him away; attempting to leave the room but the words from his mouth cause an anger to erupt in my body.

'You don't love him.' He keeps repeating.

Now the image of my mum's house is spiralling in my mind and suddenly, I am back in JJ's hospital room being violently shaken.

'Eva! Eva!'

'What did you say? WHAT DID YOU SAY.' I scream at Josh; his blue eyes narrowing in fright.

'You really love him.' he sighs; backing away from me.

'Thats all I said, Jesus!' he shouts back.

I sit back down; confused. The memory I had just relived showed Josh kissing me, then claiming that JJ didn't love me.

'Eva, what did you see? You just remembered something else...Didnt you?' Josh asks; his voice cracking.

I think about asking him a detailed question; demanding for an explanation. But after todays events, I was too exhausted. I cleared my throat before simply saying;

'Josh..Why did you kiss me?'
