"Andy.. your father died in the fire earlier today.." said an unfamiliar voice. I turned around to see a lady I didn't recognize but Andy looked like she did.

Andy's POV.

"Aunt Sandra wh-what are you doing here ?" I was so shocked to see my aunt after so many years. How does she know I'm here ?

"Oh mi bebe lo siento mucho" she came up and gave me a hug, which made me cry. I wrapped my arms around her and exhaled soon unwrapping my arms.

"Can we have the room ? " I looked around at everyone, they said bye one by one and soon it was just my aunt and I.

"I had heard that your father died. I went to your old house and they said you had moved but didn't know where. So I stopped by the station and someone told me that you were here. I swear I came so fast." She expressed with tears falling down her cheek.

"What do you mean ? My dad didn't die, he's at the station now ?" In confusion I looked at her, trying to understand what she was thinking.

"No bebe, he died last night. In the storage fire, he went on the roof to vent and fell in, to save you." She said not sounding comforting.

"You're lying. I saw him last night with Ryan." I stated confidently.

She pulled out her phone and started to search for something. "Read Andy. He's dead." She said coldly and handed me the phone. I rolled my eyes and began reading. I didn't understand. We weren't in a fire last night, we were at home having a few drinks. I couldn't take it anymore and handed the phone back to her.

"Get out ! Get out now !!" I raised my voice slightly not wanting to cause a scene.

"Andy please just listen to me-" I couldn't take it anymore. The sound of her voice pained me,

"No ! Get out ! Please leave ! I was now screaming. She stood up and walked out making sure to look at me before finally leaving.

I searched for my phone and eventually found it under my pillow. I looked through my contacts trying to remember who these people were. I saw Robert's name and decided to click on it. I saw pictures of me standing in a pretty pink dress with Robert next to my right wearing a nice tux. Along with my dad however he was on my left side. I couldn't understand why I felt safe when Robert was holding my hand. I didn't know him yet it felt like I knew him forever. Was he really my husband ? I took a sip of water and finally texted him.

Andy 🫶
Hey, would you be able to come back to the hospital ? I'm feeling awfully lonely and you said you're my husband..

Robert 🫶
I'll be there soon. :)

He replied faster than I could turn the tv on. I looked at his text and smiled from ear to ear. I couldn't seem to find anything interesting on tv, I scrolled for what felt like forever.

"How are you feeling ? " I heard Amelia's voice.

"I'm feeling okay, my head and chest hurt really bad tho. " I explained looking at her.

"That's normal after what you went through, we can up your pain medications. " Cristina voiced.

"That would be a huge help, thank you" I sighed. They fixed my medication. checked my vital, motor function and then left. I snuggled into my blanket and finally found a show to watch. I was almost a sleep when I heard Robert's voice.

"Andy ? Are you sleeping ?" He said so softly while standing in the doorway.

"Mm maybe, but please come in." I said obviously in a sleepy tone. I couldn't sit up due to my energy level so I shifted to my right side and looked at him.I heard him chuckle softly before walking in and sitting down next to me.

"How are you feeling ?" He asked politely.

"Not to bad, they upped my medication to help with the pain." I paused before continuing. "My aunt said my dad died in a storage unit last night. Is that true ?" I hoped he wouldn't say yes. That it was all a misunderstanding. He took a sigh and then took my hand in his. It made me tingle inside. His touch was so wonderful.

"He did, he saved us. He's our hero Andy. He loved you more than I've ever seen." He looked like he wanted to continue but didn't know what to say. I couldn't believe my dad was gone. I felt a few tears fall but not many. It felt like Ive already cried a whole river. Robert seems to understand, he whipped the tears away and without saying anything he got up. I wanted to ask where he was going but then I felt the bed sink and soon felt Robert lay down behind me. He wrapped his arm around me and held my hand. I felt a wave of something, I couldn't quite tell you but it came over me and it made me turn around to face him. I looked into his beautiful eyes. He must have noticed that my eyes often wondered down to his lips and back to his eyes. He slowly moved closer as I closed my eyes and slightly leaned in. I was honestly surprised when he kissed me so it took me a few seconds to kiss him back. The kiss started off slow and then became more passionate and lustful. We eventually pulled away and looked at each other. I wasn't sure what to say now.

"Andy, I'm here for you. I'll be here every step of the way. Amelia said there's a high chance that you could get your memory back. And even if you don't I'll spend every day of my life trying to win you back" he exhaled and looked at me, placing his hand onto my cheek.

I looked at him and thought for a moment. "Robert I do believe that your my husband. I've felt so safe every time we interact, however I think I need some time before I try to be a wife again. I don't think I'd be very good at it right now. " I chuckled a bit and looked at him slightly sad but full of hope.

"I understand, can I be a friend for now ?" He asked.

"I would love that." I turned around and snuggled closer to him. He got the hit and spooned me. Within minutes I was fast asleep.
