Together (Jacob Whitesides Fanfiction)

chapter 10

song for the chapter: Fools by: Troye Sivan (keep it on repeat as always and I STRONGLY suggest you play the music. it makes the story so much better and it intensifies your emotions. reading the story without the music is kinda like French fries with no ketchup. still good but not AS good. haha)
-----------------------------------------

I wake up abruptly. I don't know where I am. I look around the room. I sigh in relief. I must've slept overnight with jacob in the hospital. I'm not really sure if that's allowed but I guess it happened.

I looked over to jacob. he was awake and on his phone looking at his music. I had completely forgotten about how he made music. maybe if I played one of his songs to him he would remember.

"hey jacob?" I said nervously. he looked over to me.
"yeah?" he said carelessly. I breathed out.
"have you remembered anything?" I said hopefully.
"well not really. I've been going through my phone. I saw music with my name as the artist so I think I sing. I went through my Twitter and my notifications were blown up. people saying get well and people who seemed genuinely sad that I was hurt. millions of people talking about me and saying they love me. audrey I wanna remember me and my life and the people in my life. I want to remember me. I want to remember you.... but I really want to remember us" shivers went down my spine as he said us.
"audrey please can you help me remember. I'll do anything." I was at a loss for words. I quickly leaned forward and wrapped my arms around him.
"sure jacob." I whispered. we embraced for short silence.
"all this not remembering is confusing and hard to understand but I sure as hell understand why I loved you." jacob whispered into my shoulder. I pulled him in tighter kissing his cheek.

suddenly I heard someone clear their throat. I abruptly pull away and get up. Jacobs parents are smiling at us.
"jacob today you can come home. audrey can come and hang out if you'd like. the doctor said you don't need surgery. it was a minor injury from the accident that is supposed to heal itself. all you need to do is change clothes and we can go. you've already been discharged" she looked relieved. there was an awkward silence of us all just sitting there. it suddenly occurred to me that I needed to stand outside so he could change.
"oh uhm I'll wait outside while you change." jacob winked at me and I blushed. he's gotten in a car accident, he's in the hospital, and he's lost his memory and he's still being a flirt. he doesn't know who he is, but, I think, deep down he's still the same person. I walk out.

after about 10 minutes he walks out looking like his old self. forgetting his parents are standing there I run and hug him almost knocking him over. he hugs me back picking me up off the floor a little. we let go and I turn red from embarrassment. we start to walk to his parents car. jacob whispers to me.
"audrey can I ride with you? I haven't actually talked to my parents so they feel like strangers and the memory thing is confu-" I cut him off.
"yeah. that's cool with me." I whisper back.
"hey mrs.whitesides do you think jacob could ride with me?" I smile.
"sure honey if that's what jacob wants." jacob nodded his head.

we get to my truck and their car. they happened to have parked beside me. jacob and I get in my car and his parents get in theirs. they drive a little white mustang. they pull out of the hospital and leave just me and jacob. it was still raining outside. it's been a rainy few days. I watch the drips of water race down the windshield. I wonder if I'm rushing him into this relationship thing. he doesn't even remember me and so much stress is on him already. I feel jacob staring at me so I look over. I stare at his eyes. they're brown but a deep brown, so deep that I could drown in them. he leans in with his eyes closed. our lips slowly touch. I pull a way a little bit and open my eyes.
"I'm not rushing you into this am I? I know there's so much stress on you and I don't want to add to it and you don't remember me an-" his lips crash onto mine. electricity courses through my body. I kiss him back. he kissed me aggressively. I feel him put his arms on my waist. he bites my lip. I smile through the kiss. after a second or two, I pull away.
"I have to drive home. your parents will wonder where we are!" I laugh.
"just one more" he cutely pecked me again on the lips. I blushed and put my hands on the wheel.

||SKIP THE DRIVE TO JACOBS HOUSE||

we pulled into Jacobs house and greeted his parents. I walked up to his room with him leading me. I sat on his bed and he sat on a chair in front of his computer. there was a silence but it was comfortable. we were both just thinking. I thought about the walk up. jacob led me up. jacob led me up. oh my god. jacob remembered something without even noticing.
"Jacob!!" I shouted
"What!!" he looked startled
"you remembered the way to your room. you led me up! you're remembering!!" he didn't say anything. he looked like he didn't know how to react.
"have you listened to the music you wrote? maybe it could make you remember. I haven't even listened to many of your songs yet." I smiled so hard my jaw hurt.
"no but if it might help I want to." he pulled out his phone. I couldn't see what he was doing but a few seconds later the music was playing. he was really good. I could see why he was popular.
"what's the song called?" I asked.
"uhm let me check" he clicked the lock button on his phone and the screen popped up.
"it's called Ohio by, well, me"
"Jacob, you're really good."
"ah well thanks" I hear him start mumbling the words
"hey jacob how do you know the words?" I smirk. he smiles and looks down. another small memory.
"jacob, do you wanna swim in the rain?"
"yeah let's do it!" I had left my bathing suit at his house from the last time. I grabbed my bathing suit off his dresser and went to his bathroom to change. I quickly changed folded my clothes and set them on the backside of the toilet. the part that holds the water.

I walked out and jacob had already changed. he stared me up and down. I've never had anyone look at me that way.
"stooop!" I giggled. he looked at me and smirked. he lead me
downstairs to go to the pool. as we were walking down the stairs I noticed he had a really nice back. it was toned and muscular. I could see the outline of his bones but not in a bad way.

we walk outside and jacob runs and canon balls in to the pool. I run right after him and jump in with him. once we had both came up I splashed him a little.
"oh you wanna play that game?" he smirked. he made a huge splash. I splashed back. that happened over and over until it was a splash war.

we finally got tired and went and lied out on some towels. me on the pink one and him on the blue one just like last time. we layed out for about 20 minutes in complete silence, just both of us thinking. I was about to dose off when jacob said.
"Audrey... I remember the last time we were here" my face went red.
"our first kiss." a rush of sadness came over me.
