Accidental Love // JN Fanfic

Chapter 3

SKYLAR'S POV

Jace looks at me deeply before answering. "I don't remember you. I'm sorry."

After hearing those words come out of his mouth, my heart feels like it's been thrown at concrete wall and shattered into a million pieces. If Jace can't remember anything he was thinking about right before he fell, that means he was thinking about me. He was stressed out and I could've been there to help keep him calm. All I had to do is tell my mom I didn't want to go with her. She would've understood. All I had to do is be there for him. But I wasn't.

Tears build up in my eyes and slowly race down my cheeks. Jace stares at me with a clueless facial expression. My mom comes over to me and hugs me.

"Sky, it's okay. His memory will come back." She says rubbing my back.

I wipe a tear off of my cheek. "What if he doesn't get his memory back?"

"He will." My mom says. It irritates me how she's so optimistic all of the time. She doesn't know if he'll get his memory back. She's not a doctor. She's a lawyer. This is not her place. I don't wanna hear a lie that was made up just to protect my feelings.

I don't wanna hear the truth either. I just want my best friend back. Just yesterday we were laughing and having fun and it breaks my heart that he can't even remember that and all that we've been through. Right now my life seems like a sad movie scene and I want it to be over.

More tears pour out of my eyes. I sob into my hands. I look up at Jace who's looking at me like I'm crazy.

"Please don't cry. I'm really sorry I don't remember you." Jace says softly.

I slowly stop crying. I look into his big brown eyes fighting my tears. I speak: "Why don't you remember me? We're best friends. You've slept over my house a thousand times. We do everything together."

Jace shrugs. "I don't know, but I'm not worth your tears. Even if I don't know you, I don't want you to be sad. I'm gonna try my best to remember you."

I nod while staring at his face. I stop looking at him. I can't look at him anymore knowing that he may never remember me. I turn to my mom.

"Mom, can we go home. I don't wanna be here anymore." I say whiping my eyes and standing up. I lean over Jace's hospital bed and hug him tightly. He hugs back. His soft hair brushes against my face and my tears make his hospital gown damp. I let go of him.

"You can stay. Maybe if you tell me more about yourself I'll remember you." Jace says looking deep into my eyes.

"Yeah, you could show him pictures of you and him and tell him stories. Just don't pressure him to hard to remember." The nurse says.

I shake my head no. "I'm sorry but I can't look at you Jace. When I look at you all I think about is you never remembering me."

"But if you don't help me I may never remember you. And I want to remember you." Jace says softly.

I gulp. "This is just to hard for me Jace. I still haven't fully processed what's happening right now. I just wanna go home and go to sleep and wake up to find out this all just a dream."

A sad looks comes over Jace's face which causes my heart to break again. I can't be around him anymore. I have to leave now.

"Bye Jace."
"Bye." he says back.

Jace's parents give me looks of sympathy. I wave goodbye to them and walk out the hospital room with my mom and twin brothers.

Jordan wraps his arm around my shoulder as we walk out of the hospital. "Little sis, it'll be okay."

"No it won't." I spat. I snatch his arm off of me and get in the car with my mom. Jordan and Jake drive home in the car that they share.

My mom starts the car and begins driving home. "Are you alright?" She asks.

"Does it look like I'm alright? My fucking best friend can't remember me mom!" I yell. I cover my mouth after I realize what I just said. A stunned look comes over my mom's face. I never swear or disrespect my mom. What have I done?

"Skylar, chill out. I know you're angry but there is no need to swear. " She says softly.

"I'm really sorry." I say playing with my fingers.

After a few minutes of silence we finally reach my house. Jordan and Jake are already home. I get out of the car and run into the house. All I can think about Jace and the fact that there's pictures of me and him all over my house doesn't help the situation.

I feel tears start to fall from my eyes again. I run down into the basement and grab a cardboard box. I go back upstairs and start collecting all of the pictures and things Jace made me and putting them into the box. Tears fall faster from my eyes as the box gets heavier.

If Jace has forgotten about me, I mine as well forget about him...
