"I made you angry and you walked out of school, there was a car rounding the corner, and.. it hit right into you", he said looking at the ground, "what were you to me?" I asked, trying to change the topic, that I was indeed hit by a mechanical thing called a car. "I was about to become your boyfriend" he said chuckling, I felt my cheeks heat up, "what?" I murmured, he smiled, "you heard me, but just as I was about to," he stopped, "what?", "it doesn't matter" he said shrugging it off. I nodded and we stayed quite for a moment, "what was I like?" I said, "your asking me this question?" he chuckled, I smiled, "I mean you were amazing at drawing, sweet, you were definitely musical.", " oh my god" I gasped, "what?" he said sitting up, " I remember, I played a piano, strings, something, guitar! oh and the cello" I smiled, he grinned back at me, "let's check your drawing skills" he said, walking out of the door, what does he mean.

he later walked into the door with a sketch book and a few pencils, he laid it on my lap, this wasn't my sketch book, he handed me the pencils, hb 4b, 2b, hm. I flicked through the book, these drawings were amazing, then I came across one, it looked like, me. "is is this?" I said lifting it up to show him, he nodded, "yea it's you" he said.

I examined the drawing, every detail, every bit was perfect, "are are you okay?" he said looking at me, I flicked back, "sorry was I looking at it for long?", "no not really" he said, I picked up the pencil and pinned against the paper, "I don't know what to draw" I said, "just draw something you loved drawing back then" he said, "like eyes" it hit me, I loved drawing eyes! I remember, I placed the pencil on the book again this time shaping the eye, I looked at him, then back at the page, he furrowed his eyebrows in confusion, "why are you looking at me" he said, I smiled and kept working on it, looking back and forth at his eyes and my page, it had been at least an hour and my hands started to become shaky and my head started to hurt, I had only done one full eye and the other was just an outline, I groaned, holding my head, Mason stood up and grabbed the book and shut it, pulling the sheets over my body, "goodnight" he softly whispered, my pounding headache played its role and the only way to numb the pain was to sleep.

Shuffling of curtains being opened or closed was what I had to wake up to for the last 2 weeks, it was horrible! I couldn't attend school but they had to FaceTime me so I could keep up, being in senior year and all. My head became much better, no more lunging headaches, well at least not much, but I was diagnosed with amnesia, it wasn't the severe types, but it was still amnesia, I still had problems figuring out who was who, but I was finally fitting the pieces back. All I know that I still remembered how to play a few of my instruments and how to grip a pencil.

bring bring! bring bring!  rang my iPad sitting on the side table, I slowly pulled myself up so I was sitting and picked it up, "hi Tatiana, how are you feeling today? Maths class is on right now and you can't miss this!" I heard Abigail smiled, "I'm good, just give me a minute I'll be back," I slowly hopped out of the hospital bed and to the bathroom, quickly brushed my hair, washed my face and brushed my teeth, I slowly hobbled back into the bed and pulled out the draw which had my maths text book and grabbed a pen out of my pencil case, "okay I'm ready" I said plugging in my earphones so I could hear them properly, they turned on their camera and I saw the whole class, they all stared at me, "hi everyone, Mr Buche" I smiled, "hello there Tatiana, what a great morning to be in bed, not like all of us" he chuckled, I laughed with him. Mason was also there, laughing and smiling at me, I couldn't help but smile as well.

"alright I'll see you next lesson" Mr Buche, said, "bye Tatiana, get well soon" he smiled at me, I waved, Abigail and the rest of the class said their goodbyes and I hung up. placing my math book to the side, I'll do the homework later. The nurse walks in with the hospital food, bacon and egg toast, I guess it isn't as bad but I wasn't hungry, so I nibbled a bit of the bread and drank a tonne of water.

I was reading a book when the door opened, "hey Tatiana" Mason smiled, "hi Mason" I said hopping out of bed to give him a hug. My legs felt like jelly and I nearly fell, but Mason fell forward trying to catch me, we both laughed and I helped him get back up. "How romantic," he smiled, I rolled my eyes, "how are you today?" I asked, "shouldn't I be asking you that question?" he smirked, I smiled and walked over to the bed, slowly i  pulled myself over. The doctors said I was still weak and that I shouldn't be moving around much, but too bad for them, I was like working out full on cardio everyday, well as in cardio I mean going the toilet multiple times in an hour.

he sat down on my bed and I wiggled my feet making him squirm, "stoop!" he yelled, laying his whole body on me, "you heavy pig" I laughed, he sat up and smiled, "you know I was going to ask you out before this happened" he smiled, I laughed, "yea right" I rolled my eyes, "I'm being serious I was" he said holding my hand, I looked at my hand in his, friends weren't meant to do this, "and don't pull away please" he said. I looked up and loosened the tension that was in my shoulders, I sighed, "maso-", "do you remember what I told you, well actually confessed?" he said looking at me, I shook my head, he smiled, "well I told you I liked you, a lot,", I was shocked, did he tell me that, when? but we, we were just friends.
