Cleos POV
Years before
"Luke, Cleo stop moving let me take this picture" mum laughed as she held the camera to her eye and snapped the shot. My toothy grin visible and my hair blowing in the end. The boy standing next to me pulling the same stupid smile identical to mine. The sound of the camera let us know the picture taking time was over and our little legs could take us running around the garden.
'Luke slow down, you're going to fast i cant catch up, I only have small legs.' i chased after the blonde haired boy and listened to how he giggled, he turned to look behind me, his eyes catching mine and thats when he slipped. I laughed at the poor boy who was no covered in mud.
present day
I don't remember what it felt like to drown, all i know was that is was horrible and i never wanted to experience it again, but i was. I was drowning in lies and confusion.
I was woken up by a familiar voice calling my name and shaking my arm. "Cleo, Cleo wake up, please wake up I cant lose you not again."
my eyes fluttered opened and I saw Conner kneeling over me, with tears building in his eyes. My throat was dry and my head and eyes hurt. my breath caught in my mouth and the next minute I was choking on air. A hand rubbed my back in hope to help ease the coughing. The coughing eased and the next minute arms wrapped around my body and lifted me from the floor to place me on the closest seat.
I looked back and forth to my bed and Luke's room, how did he have the picture. Would it be possible he was the boy? NO it couldn't be, that young boy he, he. I don't know what happened to that boy.
"Connor, what happened to me?" he looked at me with sad eyes, "Cleo, you fainted you went pale and the next minute you were on the floor."
"no not that, i mean what happened to me all those years ago when i was in hospital, that all I remember. Why cant I remember anything from when i was younger? Why does Luke have the exact same photo that I did? How come you took 5 minutes to stare at him to then say you did not know him when it was clear you do?" at the point my voice had raised and I was yelling, all confusion and emotion directed at connor. " what happened to me?" My loud tone turned into a quiet empty voice.
"Do you remember anything? anything at all about when you was younger?"
I waited and remembered memories of Michael and I, but he knew those memories already. Then I remembered the little boy slipping in the mud, the picture my mother took. A sharp pain pushed its way through my head like the memory was growing, or growing back. I never remembered this before, it was new, but I knew it was me.
"Theres a boy, that boy" i pointed to the picture on my bed "Mum was taking a picture of us and we just wanted to play and he slipped in the mud, it was so funny. I just remembered this, why can i just remember this, whats wrong with me?"
"Nothing is wrong with you Cleo, it was just an accident"
A sound echoed from behind me, "Who is the little boy and why does Luke have the same picture as me?"
"Because that little boy is me." I turned to face the window and there he stood Luke , his hands in his jean pockets and shoulders high.
What the fuck happened all those years ago.
