Billy's pov
There was a man in the room staring at me. He shouldn't be here. I try to get up it doesn't work. I just struggle there. I'm stuggling to breathe. I want to shout at him to get out but I can't talk. He shouts and nurses come in. He leaves. I can relax. I don't really know what happened. I just know that I am in what I think is a hospital and something is wrong with me. I can breathe properly now. Then he comes back in. I try to back away further into the bed. He speaks
"Billy it's me." He says but but don't know who he is. "Billy me Todd." But I don't know who he is.
"It's ok I will come back later. Once your feeling a bit better yeah." He leaves. I relax again. Few he didn't hurt me I will be ok.

Todd's pov
Billy didn't know who I was. I had to hold back from crying. I was going to burst out in tears. No one could know about Billy I couldn't let anyone know. If anyone asks where he is I will say I don't know. Billy won't want the attention. I get home. Mum starts fussing over me after she heard Noris gossiping and getting the wrong end of the stick. She thought I was taken to the hospital. I'm fine. It's a shame Billy isn't he doesn't deserve this. I promise myself that I will go see him tomorrow.

Billy's pov
I need the toilet but I can't move properly. I can just about get the nurse to come over and tell her that I need to go. She sorted me put then left me to sleep. I'm asleep and I dream that I'm hit by a car. I wake up and see someone sat by my bed. It's the man from yesterday. He looks more familiar. Oh no it was Todd. I must of scared him. I try to talk to him. I can just about manage. "I'm sorry Todd. I must of scared you." Before I can't talk anymore.
"Hey its alright. I'm glad your still here if I'm being honest."
I can't think how scared he must of been.

Todd's pov
Billy remembers who I am now but he's not the same I can tell. He seems more worried about everything and stuck. I wondered how long it will take till he could come home. Then my mind started wondering off to Whatifhecouldnevercomehome land it wasn't good place to be.
Over the next few days his speech improved much more than his physical movement. But he was getting more and more fustrated with himself for not being able to move properly. Once I leave the room I go to the window and look in at him and see him beating himself up. I want Billy back to who he was. Not this self hating Billy. The Billy before the accident and if it takes everything I have to achieve that then I will give it everything.

What do you thing of the story so far. I'm enjoying writing it a lot. It's quite fun.
