Are You Scared Yet? Part Two

Trading Places

Jeremy's P.O.V.

"How is she going to take this." I said pacing back and forth besides Asia's body on the rock. "There's no easy way of saying this either." I grabbed a hold of myself and touched her forehead. Her skin was warmer than usual, she must have a fever.

I made her come here all the way for this. Geez... Can I be any more inhumane?

*Thunder and lightening*

"Where am I?" She sat up and her breathing pattern was very harsh.

"It's all right it's just me." I said grasping her hand.

She must've had a nightmare good thing It's over now.

"Asia remember how I told you I wasn't going to let you know what my decision was until we met. Well I've decided to give Smile's a chance."

*Punches me across the face*

"I knew you would be mad, but you didn't have to go straight to violence." I joked.

"I don't know you." Asia said backing off the big rock.

"You kidding?" I said smaking myself in the head.

I was puzzled. What just happened?

"You have to know me. We've lived on the same block for 14.5 years and we've been having play dates since Kindergarten. You love Michael Jackson more than you like sleep and food. Your favorite color is purple. Who else would know that or anything of these things? Remember the time I carried you home after our basketball practice, because you started your girl thing. Please tell me you remember?"

*Thunder and lightening*

There was a long silence after I spoke.

"You must really have me confused with someone else." She said on her feet about to walk away.

I lost her... I can't believe I lost her.
Think! What is it I could say to make her remember me? There's nothing to do, but sing. I got it!

"Don't walk away. See I just can't find the right thing to say. I tried but all my pain gets in the way. Tell me what I have to do so you'll stay. Should I get down on my knees and pray. And how can I stop losing you. How can I begin to say. When there's nothing left to do but walk away. I close my eyes. Just to try and see you smile one more time. But it's been so long now all I do is cry. Can't we find some love to take this away. Cause the pain gets stronger every day. How can I begin again. How am I to understand. When there's nothing left to do but walk away. See now why all my dreams been broken. I don't know where we're going. Everything we said and all we done now. Don't let go, I don't wanna walk away. You have to remember... if you don't then all is forgotten." I sobbed into my shirt.

"Wow you have a lovely voice." She said suprised.

"Is that all?" I don't mean to sound rude, but she still must not recognize me.

*Thunder and lightening*

As much as it hurts me to leave her at a time like this. It hurts me even more to be here. Just as I was going to offer her a walk home she began to sing.

"Wise men say only fools rush in, but what if I can't help falling in love with you." I was amazed I haven't heard her sing in so long I've forgotten the beauty of it.

The whole world appeared to stop. I looked up above to the sky. There was clusters of shooting stars passing by I wanted to tell her, but I didn't want her to stop singing. Why do I feel like everything's going to be alright?

"Shall I stay? Would it be a sin.
If I can't help falling in love with you..."

*Faints*

"Asia! Asia! Wake up!" Is exactly what I woke up to.

Jeremy was beside me looking more worried than some woman who just gave birth to a 15 pound baby.

"What? I coughed.

"Do you remember me?"

"Of course your Jeremy Olison my best friend since Kindergarten who still sleeps with a night light." As soon as I finished my sentence he put his hand over my mouth what was he thinking.

"Mmm." I said furious.

"Promise me you won't get mad." He nervously smiled.
