Chapter 26

"Kalin." I smiled. I walked over and grabbed his hand. "Im sorry."

"Don't be sorry. I awake, im healthy, im good." He smirked.

"Good." I said. I sat down in the chair next to his bed. He looked into my eyes and I looked into his.

"Im sorry." He teared up.

"It's okay. I've got past it I guess." I said.

"I hope. It was dumb of me." He said.

"Yeah it was." I said laughing.

"How's school?" He asked.

"I, uh, kinda quit." I said.

"Ash!!"

"Im doing online." I laughed.

"Better be." He said.

"So are we cool?" I asked.

"Cool as in?"

"Cool as in, friends? Together?"

"Both." He smiled. I leaned over and hugged him.

"Ashlyn, I have to check up on him so im going to have to ask you to leave please." the nurse kindly said.

I left his room and went to the waiting area. I grabbed my laptop out of my backpack and did some homework.

I waited till 12pm to see him again. I brought him cafe food and we both spit it out.

"I'll go get chipotle, shhhh." I winked.

"Awe ash." he smiled.

"Be right back." I smiled.

I got into my car and drove to chipotle and ordered our favorite and drove back to the hospital.

"Yeah, the only person he remembered was Ashlyn.." I heard his mom say as I snuck into the room.

I quietly knocked on the door.

"Hey." I smiled. His mom had tears running down her face.

"Something wrong?" I asked.

"No sweetie." she sniffled. I walked over to her and hugged her and she cried into my arms.

I set down the food.

"I hope you're hungry Mama." I smiled. I pulled out my burrito and gave it to her.

"You didn't have to." she smiled.

"it's fine." I assured her.

"Can I wake up Kalin?" I asked. She nodded.

"Hey Kalin." I shook him. He opened his eyes.

"Who are you? Why are you both in my room?"

"He was just fine. He knew who I was 10 minuets ago." I said backing up.

Mama started crying..

I grabbed my stuff and ran out to my car.

Everything was just perfect. He forgot everything.

*3 days later*

I've been a mess.. I haven't been aloud to the hospital since he woke up. Mama won't answer my calls. Anything could have happened. I decided to just show up at the hospital. When I knocked on the door, he was drinking water. We made eye contact.

*KALINS POV*

Shes beautiful. She looks as if she'd been crying, but she's still perfectly flawless.

"Who is that?" I whispered to my mom.

"Ask her."

"Excuse me, who are you?" I asked the girl.

"It's Ashlyn. Your, uh, friend." She said, sounding depressed.

"You're stunning." I said under my breath.

"I'll be outside." My mom said getting up.

"Kalin, it's me." Ash said. She showed me a picture of us two posing infront of a door with an anchor on it. I swiped and found some of her in a big t- shirt looking at me passionately.

"Remember?"

That word seemed to drag on forever and repeat, echoing in my head.

Flashbacks of a girl crying and then in my arms, then more crying then kissing, then a door in my face.

"Ash." I said.

"Kalin, its me.." She said.

I grabbed her hand and kissed her.

"Its you."
