Let me in. (Robert Downey Jr Fanfic) Complete

32. Mesmerized

A week has passed since I've been released from the hospital and I still don't remember anything. It's difficult not really knowing who I am and knowing nothing about my life but I imagine that it must be a lot harder for Robert and Sophie. I'm really glad to have those two caring for me. They've been so helpful and kind. I can tell that they truly care about me and that makes me sad. Not knowing the times that've brought us so close in the first place. Robert is so sweet and caring and Sophie makes me laugh all the time. I need that because whenever I'm alone for too long I start to think deeply in my mind but all becomes black if I do and it's scary. Such a big part of me is missing and it makes me feel incomplete. Robert and Sophie have been telling stories about me and the times that we've spend together and it's heartwarming to hear but I noticed that they only tell me about the good things that've happened in my life and never about the bad things. Everyone in their life must've gone through a dark period. I guess that they're just protecting me but what if I'll remember one of those bad times in my life. That would be a great step forward to gaining my memories back.

I'm home alone now. I forced Sophie to go out with Max because she wouldn't leave my side and I wanted her to spend some time with her boyfriend. I have no idea where Robert is but he told me that he'd be back in an hour or two. I'm just sitting on the beach. Enjoying the fresh air and the sound of the waves. I laid back down and closed my eyes. Enjoying the heat of the sun. My life isn't that bad. It's actually really peaceful. It went dark all of a sudden before my eyelids and I opened my eyes to see Robert standing in front of me blocking the sun.

"Hey you're back!" I said. I was tired of being alone.

"Jup and I have a surprise for you." He said smiling. I really like his smile.

"Really?" I said while taking Roberts' hand and he pulled me up to my feet. "You shouldn't have."

"I know but I wanted to."

Honestly, he's so sweet and his bright smile is like a trigger that causes me to smile too. He lead me back to the house and told me to close my eyes when we arrived at the back door. I did as I was told and I started to get really excited and I couldn't contain a giggle. He guided me inside and told me to sit and I did.

"Ok. You can open your eyes now."

I gasped.

"R-Robert? I-it's beautiful." I whispered completely in shock by the beautiful, black, shining piano I was sitting behind. He smiled warmly at me and I stared deep inside his eyes. His beautiful brown eyes. I could see the caramel/golden sparkles in them again he has sometimes when he looks at me. The first time I saw them was when I woke up in the hospital and saw him for the first time.

"D-do I play?"

"Yes you do and you play it so elegantly."

I was quiet. Staring down at the piano keys. I don't know if I can play it. I feel a little nervous and scared. What if I can't? Then Robert would've bought it for nothing.

"Emilia." I looked up at him.

"You don't have to play it right now. Take your time and when you think that you're feeling it. It will be right here waiting for you."

It's like he read my mind that I was nervous. He really knows me doesn't he? He knows me better than I know myself. I took a deep breath and closed my eyes. I slowly and gently placed my fingers on the keys and when I touched them, I waited for a minute until my mind was at peace. I could suddenly hear a beautiful melody surrounding me. It was calm and warm, passionate and free. I listened to it deeply and felt nothing else in my mind. Just the sound of the piano filling the room. It went on forever but it seemed so short as well. I felt my mind slowing down and everything became quiet. I took a deep breath and slowly opened up my eyes. I slowly realized everything around me again. I noticed that my cheeks are wet. Tears have been falling from my eyes but I felt happy. I looked up to see Robert with a shining face. He seemed mesmerized and peaceful. That made me so happy. I made him feel peaceful.
