I visited the hospital every day for the next two weeks, my heart heavy with conflicting emotions as I watched Regina slowly regain her strength. The girl I once harboured secret feelings for lay before me, her memory wiped clean by the cruel hand of fate.

As we spent time together, talking and laughing I couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness for what could have been. There were moments when I caught myself lost in the depths of her gaze, remembering the tender moments we shared before her accident. But those moments were fleeting, overshadowed by the harsh reality of her amnesia.

Yet, even as I grappled with my feelings, I committed to support Regina through her recovery. Each day, I set aside my desires, choosing instead to be there for her as a friend, It was breaking me slowly. I buried these feelings deep within my heart, focusing instead on the present moment.


--------------------

I lay next to Regina as we attempted to pick out a movie on the hospital TV, she was allowing me to be closer to her, which I loved however, I was afraid of hurting her, so half my body was hanging over the side of the bed.

 "NO NO NO, I refuse" Regina scowls at me. "but Regina bees"


Regina's scowl deepened, but there was a glimmer of amusement in her eyes. "Absolutely not, Y/n. I draw the line at the Bee Movie," she declared firmly, her tone leaving no room for negotiation.

I couldn't help but laugh at her refusal. "Come on, Regina, it's a classic! You're telling me you don't want to watch Barry B. Benson's epic journey?" I teased, trying to lighten the mood.

"I hope his stinger falls off" She said plainly. 

I gasp "BLONDIE, you bee killer" 

 "shush I'm looking for a better movie" she tell me surfing through the films.

Regina's expression shifted, her brows furrowing as she read the title. "50 First Dates, huh? What's this?" she mused, clicking on it without hesitation.

My heart sank as I realized what she'd chosen. "Uh, Regina, maybe we should—" I began, but it was too late.

The familiar opening scenes played out on the screen, setting the stage for a romantic comedy about a woman with short-term memory loss and the man who falls in love with her. I glanced nervously at Regina, unsure of how she would react.

Regina's eyes widened as the plot unfolded, her gaze flickering between the screen and me. "Wait a minute, is this about—" she started, her voice trailing off as she made the connection.

I swallowed hard, feeling a knot form in my stomach. "Yeah, it's about a woman who forgets everything every day," I admitted reluctantly, bracing myself for her reaction.

Regina's expression softened, a hint of sadness clouding her features. "That's... rough," she murmured, her voice tinged with sympathy.

"Yeah," I agreed quietly, feeling a lump rise in my throat. The parallels between the movie and our own situation were impossible to ignore, and I couldn't help but wonder if Regina saw them too.

"We don't have to watch this if you don't want to," she said softly, her eyes meeting mine with a mixture of understanding and concern.

I shook my head, offering her a small smile. "No, it's okay, I will if you want too"


Regina's eyes glistened with unshed tears as she watched the movie unfold, With each passing scene, I could see her growing more and more absorbed in the story, her defences slowly crumbling under the weight of its parallels to her own life. her hand was trembling and without question I took her hand in mine. she turned too me and smiled, she then realised how far off the bed I was. "I wont bite" she teased, she pulled me in close too her, no space was between us now.
