Deluded// Leonardo DiCaprio *FINISHED*

The trial

*leo's pov*

It's been three months since our official first date, and I'm trying to show Victoria things that will remind her of her old self. The doctors say it's working because she seems to be getting her memory back, and remembering things about the past. I mean, she still thinks she's a 16 year old girl!
They also said when the 'accident' happened, she was underweight. They say that if she was within the right weight range then she wouldn't have gone into a coma and wouldn't have got amnesia, which pissed me the fuck off.
So, I have to go to court today, I've been accused of attempting murder. I'm really hoping Vic will stick up for me because she knows how I am when I'm angry, she knows I didn't want to hurt her.

"We were play-fighting and I just hit you a little too hard, okay?" Leo said, holding my hands.

"Yeah," I said coarsely, gulping down the fear.

This was a big day, I didn't know whether I wanted him to be locked up or not. He only punched me, it's not like he wanted to kill me, but- he did put me into a coma and make me loose my memory, which is kind of annoying. But since then he has done everything he can to care for me, and try to help me remember who I am! I can tell he is honestly sorry, and what's happened has broken his heart just as much as mine.
I was thinking about this on the drive to the Courtroom.

"Leo?" I said.
"Yes?"
"Why did you hit me?" I asked.

*Leo's pov*

"Why did you hit me?"

I never thought she would ask his question. I thought she had forgotten about it, that I had gotten away with it. This question shocked me to the very bone, although I was praying that all my experience of acting was hiding it.

"Erm..." I stammered. "Wh- why would you ask that?"

"Because I think it's my business, don't you?" She said.
I thought about lying, that would make it all easier. I could just tell some stupid lie and she'd love me again and I wouldn't have to go to jail and everything would all be good. But no, I couldn't lie to her anymore. She feels like her whole life is a lie, how could I add to that?

"You really wanna know why?" I said, an eyebrow raised.

"Really really."

"The truth?" I asked. I think the could tell I was trying to put off telling her.

"The whole truth."

I sighed. "Okay." I said. "You left me."

"Why?" She said, her eyes wide and breath heavy.

"You saw me kissing Kate Winslet... Which wasn't meant to happen. I hugged her and before I could stop it, she kissed me." She was speechless. "I never got the chance to see you and tell you the truth."

"You punched me because I left you?!" She yelled. "You fucking deserve to go to jail if you kissed Kate Wins-" I put my hand over her mouth.

"Be quiet- please." I said and she settled down.

"Look, the next time I saw you was in a years time. My life was hell without you. I mean, you literally ran off and didn't tell me where you were going or anything! We were engaged! I was heartbroken. I searched for you for ages, out all night, getting no sleep. I even started a police search which went on for 6 months. I was heavily drinking, doing drugs, getting into fights... I became the man I was before I met you." I explained. I could feel tears in my eyes, making the road blurry and reminding me to focus on driving. I looked at her so she could say something, but she stayed silent.
