Aliyah Pov.

I have to admit this Jacob boy is pretty fine, I'm not quite sure yet if he and Kiloni are a thing or if i liked him like this before i lost my memory (Btw she never used to like him) Actually...i have no idea how i used to be...or who i liked, the only thing i remember is that Jermaine guy, ugh.

I spied over Kiloni and Jacob over her balcony as they spoke.

"Yeah so she said the raper is called Jermaine." Kiloni said to Jacob as she put a plate of pancakes down on the table.

"Jermaine? How'd she say he looked?" Jacob asked twirling a basketball around his finger.

"She said he had a strong Italian accent...so he was Italian, tall, muscular, good looking-" Kiloni pretended to day dream about him to annoy Jacob.

"Ok ok-" He rolled his eyes. "- I think i get it." I could sense the jealousy in his voice.

Kiloni laughed and hit him playfully. "Boy, i'm joking you know I- Oh hey Aliyah." She smiled up at me.

I became nervous when Jacob looked up at me. "Um...hi.." I looked down and put a lose strand of my brown hair behind my ear.  

"Ight Kiloni i'm off to basketball practice see you lat-" Jacob started.

"Could i come?" I blurted out, omg that's so not like me. Jacob and Kiloni looked up at me confused. "I mean...the doctor said i should do a lot of sport to you know...try and jog my memory back."

Jacob nodded in understanding and Kiloni smiled. "Old Aliyah did like sport." She sighed and looked down, ugh why do so much people miss the OLD me?

"Who says the new Aliyah doesn't?" I smirked and walked down the stairs to join Jacob at the door, i closed the door behind us, today was about to be fun!

I watched Jacob from the behind, mhm did he look good in basketball shorts, with those sexy legs he has-

"You ok?" He chuckled, i snapped out of my daze and looked up at him, he noticed i was staring at him.

I smiled and nodded as he opened the car door for me. 

As i buckled up Jacob turned the radio on. It started playing a really...catchy song, i actually like it.

"What song is this?" I asked as he continued to drive.

"You come first, one of my songs." He smirked.

"Wait...one of your songs?" Is this guy like famous?!?

"Mhm!" He said proudly. "Love to see my lady in the way she reacts when i kept her satisfied." He started singing along.

OMG, his voice-

Suddenly something painful hit me in the head, it felt like i was being shot or something, suddenly i saw Jacob on stage with some dancers performing that song the room was filled with teens screaming Jacob and dancing along, he looked sexier than ever! I looked at the side of me and saw Kiloni, on my other side was some girl, she looked half asian half black with big frizzy hair. I came back to reality, i rubbed the temples of my head.

"Are you ok?!?" Jacob was breathing heavily.

I squinted my eyes and looked around me, we were in some alley way. "Erm yeah...what just happened?" I asked with my head still burning.

"You tell me!" He still looked deep into my eyes. "One minute you were fine, then next your screaming and grabbing onto the wheel, i had to steer us out of death! Then you just blacked out."

I noticed Jacob was scared as hell, i was also breathing heavily, the pain was so intense that i couldn't control my actions.

"Are you ok tho, you looked like someone had just shoot you!" 

"It felt like it.." I sighed and sat back.

"YOU'RE SHOOT?!?" He jumped up.

"No no-" I chuckled. "It just felt like it, i'm fine Jake." I laughed.

"Ok ok." He sighed deeply and pulled out. "I'll take us to the gym so you can get some water."

I nodded and looked out of the window. That flashback i had was intense. "Jacob, i think i just had a flashback."

"For real, what about?"

"Well...i think i was at a concert, your concert...i was with two girls, Kiloni and an other one-" I tried to recall how she looked. "-She had like big frizzy hair and she looked half asian and half black, i have no idea who she is tho."

"That must be Carina." He muttered.

"Who?"

"Carina, she was one of your bestfriend's but she on holiday to Barbados right now." He sighed.

I nodded and continued to look out of the window.

We arrived at the gym, Jacob handed me a glass of water, i smiled and thanked him before walking to the bleachers and sitting down, Jacob didn't hesitate to start shooting some hoops. Oh gosh, i bit my lip as i watched him, he betta not have a girl because i want him!!!

I put the glass down and stood up and walked over to him and tackled the ball out of his hands. 

"You sure you're ok to play?" He asked raising an eye brow.

"Why wouldn't i be?" I asked bouncing the ball down the court, but from the basket ball movies i watched it was called dribbling, which i thought a baby did, i'm so confused. 

"Well i am a rough player." He popped his collar.

"Sure you are!" I scoffed. "Just play with me spongbob." I shot through the hoop and it missed, Jacob laughed and stole the ball. 

"It's ok, you'll get it next time." He said in a baby voice, before shooting and it went in, he did his victory dance, well he's quite a good dancer as well, is there anything this boy can't do? I booed him and stole the ball. 

"It's not fair, you're good at basketball...i'm not." I pouted.

"I thought you were?" He crossed his arms and smirked.

"I used to be?" I looked down.

He sighed and walked over to me. "You want me to show you?"

I looked up and nodded. "Yes pwease."

He laughed and took his place behind me, i held the ball in my hands and smirked as he wrapper his arms around mine.

He hesitated to put his hand on mine and i intertwined them and smirked, he laughed uncomfortably before speaking. "So you lift the ball up until you feel comfortable." He directed my hands up.

"I already feel comfortable." I sighed and leaned against him.

He laughed. "You joker, anyway after you tilt your hand back." He tilted our hands back.

"Then release."

I did as he said and watched as the ball went round and round the hoop then finally dropped in, i smiled and turned around to him. "Thanks Jake!" 

"It's ok." He nodded, i smiled and bit my lip nervously as we looked deep into each others eyes, Jacob smile faded away as he continued to look into me.

I leaned closer and wrapped my hands around his neck, i could feel my heart beating fast as i leaned in to kiss him.......
