John couldn't fall back asleep that night so he went outside on his porch thinking that dream was so vivid and it was her Lexi with my Zippo,my shirt doing things to me but the question that bothered him was in the dream he was still a virgin and planned for her to be the one,he worked on her parents farm for the summer what fucking summer.

His thoughts went to the little blue eyed boy and beautiful women next door for years he's been dreaming of a women he truly loved but their was never a face he always told her 'I'll always love you no matter what you'll always be my one' he's questioned his love for Mary more than once but just thought it was normal since they fight alot but now he wonders if he had found a love so great that he just never could love Mary like he thought.

That next morning when Mary took Claire to school before going to her office John dug threw his pockets and found Mr Reeds number debating if he was just fantasizing or if his dream was real finally deciding to call he chewed his thumbnail as the phone rang

'Hello'
'Uh yeah Mr Reeds it's John..John Rollins'
'John how ya doing son'
'Okay um not really I've been dreaming things I'm not sure are real and shit..you'll think I'm some pervert'
'Now son just tell me I might can help'
'Shit..um are ya close can I meet ya'
'Son you know where..um never mind yeah I live down Fairmont road only farm their come on over'
'Thank Mr Reeds see ya in a bit'

John froze at his words he heard the man slip up but now he's more curious he leaves a quick note in case he gone longer than a couple hours and heads out. The drive was shorter than he thought they actually didn't live far,as John was pulling up the driveway he slammed on breaks as his breath was taken away as Memories flooded his mind 'I've been here before,I've lived in that house before,that's the barn from my dreams the house ' "shit" finally pulling up more he jumps out the truck seeing Me Reeds on the porch in a rocking chair drinking ice cold lemonade.

John slowly approaches "your memory's coming back son" John froze at his words very confused "what do you my memory coming back" the old man sighed and stood waving his hand for John to follow him he pulled out a piece of paper handing it to John "read it then come find me out behind the barns where the horses are" he walked away leaving John with the piece of paper he opened it reading it


Dear Lexi
This summer has been the most incredible i found good work and a girl I love more than life itself.
Unfortunately my life has been chosen for me I have been told due to my family being broke my father has arranged for me to marry a girl I grew up with and dated back in high school she didn't make me happy or even make me want to sleep with her and now im off to marry her unfortunately.
Please remember Lexi your the love of my life always Will be I wish things where different but there not,please move on and find love and happiness I don't want you sad over this trust me baby if it was me I would have married you yesterday.
Unfortunately with this arrangement I'm having to live with her and her family and can't write or call you so this letter is my goodbye I'm so sorry Lexi i love you baby so fucking much find love and happiness but please don't forget about us,I won't aswell
Love John

His breath got caught in his chest their was no date suddenly images flooded his brain this farm,Lexi her parents the night he made love to her,his fight with his parents over being forced to marry Mary "holy shot" he ran as fast as be could until he found Mr Reeds just stopping before I slammed into him I lean over trying to catch my breath still clutching the letter "is..is it true..when..what year....why..can't...shit ahh..remember" Mr Reeds handed John a newspaper clipping 'shit more reading' he looked at the clipping clenching it as he saw a picture of him and his Parents

' Accident involving the Rollins family caused their son John to loose his memory after a drink driver impacted them on their way home'

John read it over and over again Mr Reeds looked at him and Sighed " son call me Norman you used to look John what I'm about to say will shock you,just know we never blamed you yes we blame your parents and always will but you need to know looks the date that was about 8,9 years ago you came here needing a summer job to help your parents out try went broke,you worked here all summer you and my daughter Lexi shortly after you arrived began dating hell me and Martina didn't mind y'all reminded us of us at that age y'all were madly in love, son me and you were close so close that you confided in me about your fears especially being 20 and a virgin but Lexi was 16 and one aswell you wanted to wait, you had been looking at the house Lexi now lives in you wanted to add on and remodel it for you and her,but summer ended and your parents showed up,you knew Lexi wanted to say a proper goodbye but she didn't know what your paretns had been planning but you confided in me and I fought with you dad over it that night you made love to my daughter in that barn their where you spent all that day fixing up to make it special for her now I know father's ain't supposed to be okay with that but we were that age once and I saw the same love in your eyes for my daughter as in mine fore my wife, on the way home y'all got into that accident you lost your memory when your parents figured out that you had forgotten about us they didn't bother telling you so when Martina and Lexi finally got ahold of them to explain some things they said some things to Lexi that really hurt her,she never forgot you John never truly moved on but understood you truly love Mary and she can't do nothing about it,its not your fault you couldn't remember her."

John had tears in his eyes these past years have been a lie he started thinking about Claire if it true he didn't loose his virginity until that summer with Lexi than Claire isn't his but... "He's...he's..my.." "Your son yes son he is Lexi tried to tell your mother but she wanted the money Mary parents were giving and told Lexi she was a whore and the baby could be anybodys" John fell to his knees crying not caring how weak it made him look his life has been a lie he's been raising a child tat wasn't even his while his child has no daddy "does..'sniff sniff..he know..bout..me" Norman got to his knees grabbing John's shoulders "he knows John we've told him you got in accident and lost your memory and can't remember his momma but one day you will and you'll be their for him,he has your picture and seen the videos we took that summer" John didn't think he could cry anymore but he was and the hurt he felt grew stronger "they lied to me,I've been in a unhappy marriage for 8 years with a women I don't even love,raising a little girl I love to death and she's not even mine which means that's why her ex is always around she's his,and my son hasn't had his daddy all because my parents were money hungry" balling his fist he punched the ground "I gotta go" he ran to his truck planning on getting answer tonight. Driving slowly by Lexi house he sees his son riding his bike playing by himself outside anger spurs in him again his parents and Mary caused that boy be without a father and if he has it his way this week he'll have his father back.
