I gasp awake. my bones cracking as I stand. the tingle in my legs, my wrist, every single one of my joints. It hurts. the growing pain as I move slightly. finding my way out of the dark dingy room. "ugh!" I stretch, my body is sore from my lack of movement.
"woah! hey Victoria's awake!'' I hear a man shout. Who is that? Where am i? I look around the dizzy dizzy room. "I got you" he had me sit, giggling a bit. staring at me, his eyes are a blueish gray, his pale skin and his brown, frost bitten tips on his hair.
"who are you?" i question thinking where i was and what i was doing here. "Im Peter, i'm your roommate, we've been living together for 6 months, you have a case of amnesia, and you sometimes forget where you are" what? amnesia? that doesn't make sense, How?
"how do i know your not lying?'' I stare at him. "well, you moved in 8 months ago, you just woken up" he starts holding my hands. "Your name is Victoria. You live here with Seth, Maribeth and I. You had an accident a few months back, we've been helping you through your memory loss."
I stare at him. memory loss? How long have I been living alone? How old am i? "You're 21 Victoria, you've been living alone since you were 17. we've been helping you out since you've moved in." Peter smiles gently, "you're probably starving aren't you?" He helps me stand up and leads me into the kitchen. the room right next to the living room and next to the front door.
He goes through the fridge a bit pouring me a drink. A thick drink. "Here, if you drink this it should fill you up for a while" he hands me it, its colorless, clear ish, and thick. I quickly take a drink, sipping it, feeling it sludge down my throat.
Gulping the drink down, my hunger evaporating the more I drink it, I hand him the empty cup. "Can I have more please?" I look at him licking the extras off my lips. He laughs a bit "it's been a bit huh, you must have been really hungry" he fills up the glass again, handing it back to me. "You can thank Seth for it, he's been keeping it for you until you wake up" he smiles a bit watching me drink the cup all over again.
I finish the cup, licking the extra from the rim. "You're Peter, right?" he nods looking at me, taking the cup from my hands and wiping my mouth. "Seth should be here soon, and Maribeth is in her room, as usual" He leads me to Maribeth's room and knocks on the door. "Yeah?" Her music pauses, then footsteps lead to the door, and then it pulls open, Revealing a short girl, with black ruffled chest length hair, dark eyes, wearing a long sleeve shirt and a long skirt.
"VIC!" she gives me a big hug, "you're finally awake! oh my god it's been so long!" She looks at my long brown hair, tucking a strand behind my ear. "Seths gonna be so excited, he's been sleeping outside your door for days" sleeping outside my door?
I smile shyly "I'm glad to meet you Maribeth" I look at her, wondering how long I've been asleep for. "I can't wait to see Seth's reaction-" Maribeth gets cut off "we all know he's gonna cry and beg for Vic to never sleep again or 'he will never see the light of day'" they both laugh
I smile a bit, turning and walking into the living room, sitting on the couch. God I don't know if it's because I slept too long but everything hurts. It's like I've run over a million times and got up like nothing happened.
I sigh, turning the tv on as I try to stretch my arms out above my head. "Peter, can you help me please?" I look at him as he rushes to my side. "Can you stretch my arms out with me?" I extend my arm as far out as I can. His gentle hands applied an even pressure on my joints, as if he knew exactly where it hurt.
The front door opens and then closes, "Maribeth i got you something when i was out, i thought you'd like it" he hands her a new book and a journal. "Wow thanks Seth, i appreciate it but god are you oblivious." She laughs a bit.
"Hi Seth" I smiled a bit, playing along. "VICTORIA!" he practically moves at the speed of light, he's on his knees in front of me, tears forming into his eyes. "I can't believe this!' he grips my legs, leaning in tears rolling down his cheeks.
"You're finally awake! I can't believe this, and you remember me!" he sobs into my lap. "Please don't leave me again!" he cries into my lap. Peter and Meribeth giggling that they guessed it right. "I'm sorry Seth, I don't really remember much" I gently ran my hands through his pitch black hair, his bright green tear filled eyes looking up at me, still running down his cheeks.
"I'm sorry!" he cries harder into my lap, "Please forgive me Victoria!" he grips my legs, his tears seep into my jeans. "Seth?" I lifted his head up, gently wiping his tears with my free hand. "I don't remember what happened. There's no need to apologize. "I smile softly, I have no clue why he's apologizing and I don't think anyone will tell me why he is.
He starts wiping his tears. "Don't fall asleep again without me please!" He looks at me, holding my legs. "I don't think i could ever do this again" he hugs my legs. I giggle a bit, Peter and Meribeth were right on the dot. They must have lived with him for a long while.
"I'll leave you be" Peter drops my arms and kisses my forehead, walking into his room. "Sit with me Seth" I smile, patting the seat right next to mine.
