"SHE REMINDS ME OF A PART OF ME, THAT I CAN'T EVEN REMEMBER, THAT I DON'T WANT TO REMEMBER...BUT GOD, I WANT TO REMEMBER HER."
Stefan looked at himself in the mirror as he buttoned his shirt up. His head was filled with a thousand things.
The main one? Gia.
He was so frustrated with the simple fact that he couldn't remember anything. It was irritating to him. It was nagging him.
He had been clawing at his brain for the last few days, trying to find some trace of memories with Gia, of his past life. So far? Nothing.
It was eating him alive. Knowing he had an entire life he couldn't remember.
Times like this, Stefan really wished he could go off the rails again. Would've so much easier to deal with this.
How do you deal with the fact that your entire life has basically been a lie and you can't remember your true life?

GIA RAN HER HAND THROUGH HER HAIR AS SHE WALKED INTO HER ROOM, SHE FROZE WHEN SHE SAW STEFAN SITTING ON HER BED, HIS EYES ON HER AS SOON AS SHE CAME IN THE ROOM. AS IF HE WAS WAITING FOR HER.
"Stefan?" Gia asked confused, it had been an entire week and she hadn't heard one word from him

"Tell me, about our life, about my life. I wanna know, I need to know." Stefan informed Gia who seemed surprised by this information

Stefan sat back down on the bed, waiting patiently for Gia to tell him.
Gia however seemed to be lost in thought, trying to figure put how to word their life together. Stefan's old life. She had put it all of that aside for so long, all the memories she had with Stefan. God, it truly took everything in her not to break down as she opened back up that door from her life with Stefan she had under lock and key for centuries.
Finally, Gia began. "Well, it all started when..."
