As I sit in the passenger seat of Justin's car I look out the window at the street lights and stars. Are world is so beautiful but, there is people who ruin it and, try to make it ugly. We come to a stop at a red light. I look over at Justin to ask him how much longer till we get to the hospital. "About five more minutes." He says. But, I feel like there is more on his mine." Are you okay?" I say. He keeps his eyes on the road. "Yeah just have a little bit of a head ache." He says. I figure he doesn't want to talk about it so I let it go for now. To try and, make this awkward silence go by I turn on the radio. A sudden smile creeps up on Justin's face and it is as big as the moon. "Why are you so happy all of a sudden?" I ask.
"This was your favorite band. You own all six albums of Electric Plague." He says. We finally pull into the hospitals parking lot but, I notice a Mark on his arm peeking out underneath his sleeves. We get out of the car it's probably nothing but, I can't help my self."What is that?" I ask pulling up his sleeve. He try's to jerk his arm away but, I've already seen it for it to be confirmed. "J-Justin why?" I say. I have tears welding up on my eyes." I-if I tell you. Y-you might think I'm crazy for doing it." He says. I start shaking my head."No, I won't think your crazy. Tell me please?" I say pleadingly. He looks at me deep in my eyes and then looks away. "You promise?" He says.
" I promise." He lets out a loud sigh and says. "When you were in the hospital for those three days I uh- um-uh.." He starts to cut off his own sentence when I tell him to continue." I thought you wasn't going to wake up and, then when you did and, then you said you didn't know me. It broke my heart. So I went home and, did it. I know, I know it's crazy." He says. He starts pacing back and forth and, I can tell he was nervous about telling me that." Justin look at me." He stops but, still looks at the ground. I place both of my hands on his cheeks so he will look at me. "Your not crazy okay? Just please don't do it again. I want you to stay alive." He nods.
We continue walking to the hospital and, I follow him to Emily's room. As I walk in her smile is really big. I've notice the way Emily and, Justin smile. They look so similar. That big smile turns into a frown, and the thing that she asks me breaks my heart into pieces. "Do you remember me?" She must have founded out I went into a coma again. "I remember you Emily why wouldn't I remember a brave little girl like you?" I say. My eyes are burning and, I want to cry but, I need to stay strong."You didn't remember my brother." She says. I look back at Justin for a few seconds. He stares at the ground so I look back at Emily. "It took me a few days. But, I now remember my best friend I ever had." I look back to see if he was paying attention and, surly enough he was. He was standing there kind of shocked but smiling really big like his sister was when I walked in to her room. I smile back but realized we had been staring at each other. I turn my head to face Emily to find she has a really big smile. "Big bro?" She says.
"Yes little sis?" He says.
"Can you stand out side with the door shut real quick?" She says. He gives a short laugh, and a nod. He exits the room, and closes the door like she said."You like him!" She says.
"Wait what?" I say surprisingly.
"Come on it's obvious he likes you to ever since the day you met. He told me what happen at prom." She says.
"Um uh what happen at prom?" I ask very confused." You two had your very first kiss!" She says really enthusiastic.
"You know what Emily! You are very smart, amazing beautiful girl, and have no boy, girl or anything tell you worse okay?"I say. She nods and I say"I need to get going but, can I ask you a question?" I say. She nods again."Does your brother like me?" She pretends she has a zipper on her mouth to show she can't say. "Okay then I'll see you soon!" I say. "Bye Arriana." She says. I walk out and find Justin just sitting there with his face in his hands." Your sister is really something. She is just like you." I sit down right next him."Smart, energetic, happy, and awesome friend." He looks at me and says" I'm none of those things."
"Then what are you?" I ask
"I terrible person. A bad brother, a bad friend, a bad son, a bad -" I cut him off." All i hear is negativity." I say. I was very hesitant about it but I decided to kiss his cheek. I could tell he was trying not to blush but we were just friends it's not like it's meant anything right? I stand up, and ask "Is it alright if you take me home now?" I say. He nods. I stretch out my hand to help him up. He takes it but, he never lets go. Best friend hold hands right? We walk through the parking lot holding hands until we get to his car where we have to break apart to get in. When we start driving he accidentally touched my hand twice which made his face go red.
    After few awkward moments later we finally arrive at my house. But, there's something that has bugging me that Emily said." Emily said you told her everything. About how you used to tell her stories about us. She said you loved me a lot. Did you?" I ask.
"Well uh um i uh-" I cut him off "It's okay I shouldn't have asked." I try to get out the car but he locks the doors.I turn my head to face him and, ask why he locked the doors but, he grabs my face and kiss me.  All these memory's flow back to me. The ice cream shop ,Wally World, the time in the basement, Prom, especially prom. As he pulls away I look into his eyes." I remember" I whisper real lightly . He must have heard me because he smiles. I decide to smile to and, he hugs be over the center console." I was hoping you would remember." He said. I nuzzle my head into his shoulder. Today was probably the best day of my life.
