Letters from My Romeo

I heard voices but couldn’t decipher who they belonged too. I tried to open my eyes but I couldn’t they felt to heavy same for my movements, I couldn’t even move my finger. I listened to the voices closely.

“Will she ever wake up? “ A deep voice asked.

“Depends, were not sure yet.” Said another deep voice.

“What can I do, I have come here every day for the past year to talk to her and she doesn’t seem to get better, like you said she would” said the first voice.

“It’s slowly going to bring her back, but she needs you there when she does come out of it”. Second voice said.  Are they talking about me? I thought to myself.

“Look I can’t take any more pain or hope of knowing if she’s going to wake up? I need to move on if that’s even possible”. The first voice said.

Even though I don’t know this person, or remember him in anyway those were just shattered my heart and I just so happen to feel it.  I felt something wet slide down my face, but I couldn’t move to find out what.

“Goodbye, Melissa.” He said walking away I’m assuming since I heard footsteps.

2 years later….

I opened my eyes to something bright. I looked around the room and noticed how plain it looked. My door burst open and a lady with a clipboard and scrubs walked in, she looked up and dropped her clipboard.

“Who are you? I asked curiously. She just ran out the door screaming ‘She’s Awake’.  Whatever that’s supposed to mean.

I was fixing to get up when something caught my eye; there were teddy bears, flowers, balloons and chocolates everywhere. Not to mention two big piles of envelopes with the name Melissa on them. I reached over to pick one up when my door slammed open again, but this time a guy in a white lab coat walked in. I scooted away from him as he neared me.

“Who are you? Where am I? Am I Melissa? Why do I feel like I have been sleeping for years and I never want to again? I don’t remember anything!” I Blurted. He chuckled.

“I’m Doctor Levi; you’re in a hospital because you’ve been in a coma for three years, hence why you have slept for years and yes your name is Melissa”. He answered

I shook My Head, “Why am I in the hospital?” I asked.

“You really don’t remember anything?” he asked worriedly.

“No” I said.

“You were in a Car Accident during a road trip with Your Friends and Boyfriend.” He said.

Tears were streaming down my face by now. “This Can’t be right” I said.

“What About Family? Where are they?” I asked curious. “What Happened to my friends and so called boyfriend? I added.

Levi Stuck His Head Low, “Melissa You should read the letters , Your Answers will be there” He stated rubbing my back before walking out. I looked at them once before picking them up and pulling out the first letter. Tears Were Flowing down my face as I read It, Pictures were in it.  I set them aside and read the letter, It said:

“Dear  Love,

IF You are reading this then that means you have woken up.

I want You to know none of this is your fault, I left because I couldn’t Stand the pain of losing you In case something went wrong, So I’m Writing you these letters instead. In Case You did lose your memory.

I want you to know our story,  So I’m going to Walk you through how we met.

It was 12/24/2008 at 6:24 Pm , We were both at the mall getting last minute Christmas presents and we were always bad at that. But anyways you skateboarding  and I was checking my list when we Intercepted knocking us both in the fountain.  We started screaming at each other When People yelled Mistletoe, we looked up and sure enough it was hanging by the horse they decorated and we shared our first kiss right there.

I fell in love with you since, It took you a bit longer but you still came to me.  I always Loved your Laugh, Smile, The Way you Crinkled your nose when your thinking. It was every little thing about you that made you special and Made Me Love you more and more every day. 

At First your dad had disapproved of me, But your mom convinced him from how they met at a young age.  You were so excited about our first date!

 I was soo nervous thinking I was gonna screw everything up, while you looked as stunning as ever. I knew from that minute in your eyes that you would love me for me no matter what I was wearing. You actually laughed at first saying I looked dorky with a tux that we were only going to the diner.

But you said it was always the thought that counts and so you went and stuck on your shirt that looks like a tux with black skinny jeans. We Laughed at all the weird looks we got. That Night went amazing, First at the diner we tried to play out lady and the tramp rolling a meatball around with our noses, we even kissed because of the noodle we had stuck in both mouths. I always loved that. we had gone ice skating afterwards falling on our asses every chance we had.  We didn’t care though we were together and that’s all that truly mattered, Then we ended it with a Dance.

Theres Pictures From Our first date with this letter and I want you to know I love you.

Please forgive me,

Matt

I Laughed for the first time since I had awoken at this letter. I looked through the pictures smiling as tears came falling out for the hundredth time today.

There Was One with us having spaghetti  noses, The noodle kiss, The Ice skating mishap and even the dancing. 

I took those pictures setting them on the table next too me, before laying down into a ball crying myself too sleep… And to think that was only the first one.
