"What are you doing?" Grayson asked looking at me sleepily, "what? Oh uhm-" I said looking down at him. "Why do you have my phone?" He asked getting suspicious, "and why are you crying?" He asked jumping up, "what's with all these questions!" I snapped and went to walk away, but he grabbed me an pulled me back to him. "Just tell me why you're crying" Grayson said looking at me. "It was just a nightmare." I said. "You're lying." Grayson said, "I don't understand anything anymore, my life is ruined and I don't know how to fix it. And the worst part is that everyone I love and care for is getting destroyed by me, everyone!" I said breaking down and I began to cry, Grayson's eyes had sorrow in them it was like he felt how I felt. "Grayson I'm sorry, I'm so sorry." I bawled. "For what?" He asked taking me into his arms. "I don't even know!" I said crying, he planted a kiss on my forehead. "Can we go call the hospital tomorrow, I have some questions." I asked wiping tears away, "yea of course." He said, "now your should probably go back to sleep now Kenz." Grayson said rubbing me back, "ok." I sighed walking away. I shut the door behind me and wiped the tears off my face, "hows it feel to be lied to." I said to myself. I then opened Ethan's door to his room and found him peacefully sleeping, I jumped on top of him with my legs on each side of his waist. "Babe I'm trying to sleep." Ethan groaned slightly agitated. "Tickle tickle" I giggled playing with his face, "baby please I'm tired." He whined, "ok fine but only if you get me a kissy kissy." I said like a little girl, "come here." He said sleepily holding my thighs. Our lips cradled each others, and I smiled into the kiss.

I woke up tired and exhausted, I don't know completely why though besides now good enough sleep. I brushed my teeth and washed my face, I straightened my hair and then began to apply some makeup. "Hey what's up?" Shirtless Grayson asked walking into the bathroom. "Ah! Gosh gray" I laughed. "Where is everyone?" I asked. "They went out." He said. "Really? I wanted Ethan to be here when I called the hospital." I sighed "it's ok I'm here for you, we're gonna get you some answers." Grayson said, I then just wrapped my arms around him. "Thank you!" I said.

After I called the hospital they gave the phone to the nurse that took care of me, "hello Mackenzie" said the nurse, "hi, I uhm...I'm here with Grayson and you're on speaker phone and I have some questions." I said, "yea of course, continue." The nurse said, "when am I am I going to get my memories back?" I asked, "it takes time hun-" she said, "no I want answers no, every time I feel like I'm getting close to a memory it disappears.    And when I think to hard or try, I get this sharp pain that goes through my head and I get dizzy and feel sick." I said overwhelmed. "It's ok just tell her everything and she's going to help you get better." Grayson said rubbing my back. "I want to remember the past because everyone around here is lying to me! Even my fucking Boyfriend!" I snapped, "Grayson I specifically told you to let her go, she needs to remember before you get back with her!" The nurse yelled. "Ethan is my boyfriend..."I trailed. "Oh. So you and Grayson aren't toget-" she asked as I shut the phone off. I felt my body go cold, "oh my god." I said staring straight ahead, Grayson just sat there not touching me. It was dead silent. "Oh my fucking god Grayson, you lied to me. This whole god damn time it was you! You fucking liar!" I yelled standing up, he just sat on the couch with his head down. "That means that everything I feel for Ethan...is what I felt for you...so I'm actually-" I said. "Holy fuck Grayson! IF YOU KNEW HOW I FUCKING FELT FOR YOU THEN WHY WOULDN'T YOU SAY SOMETHING!" I shouted. "Stop yelling at me! I didn't do it for myself!" He shouted back standing up, "then why didn't you say something! Because I then wouldn't of slept with Ethan, and maybe just maybe I would've gotten some memory back if we we're dating!" I snapped. His eyes got wide. "You had sex with my brother?!" He shouted, "yes I did because apparently I thought he was you! The feelings that I have for Ethan...that's how I felt for you. All of you have kept this from me, the people I trusted!" I said. "Why are you acting like this is my fault?" Grayson said stepping closer, "because it is! You should've told me Grayson, for fucks sake you were my boyfriend! And when Ethan an I had sex it wasn't my first time I'm guessing so you probably took that!" I yelled. "I was being selfless! I had to watch you die in that hospital Mackenzie! We have fucking promise rings that I've been hiding from you because you were dating Ethan and he was happy, you were happy, and I couldn't take that away! My heart was broken!" Grayson yelled very loudly getting in my face as pulled out his promise ring. "What's going on?" Ethan asked walking in the door with Nate an Paige following. "Great, why don't we just have a little talk." I said giving a pissed off smile. "I think I'm gonna go get another smoothie.."Paige said trailing as she grabbed Nate's hand and walked back out the door. "You lied to me Ethan. This whole relationship was a fucking lie and you knew it." I said. "What the hell are you talking about?" He asked. "You took my fucking girlfriend bro!" Grayson shouted, Ethan go in his face. "She wanted me Gray!" Ethan said. "Would you two stop! Ethan why didn't you tell me the truth? I was in love with Grayson and that my feelings got mixed when I woke up from that damn coma." I sighed. "Because Grayson had you when I wanted you, you loved him so much and I wanted you more, I'm so sorry I should've just told you." He said. "What else didn't you tell me!" I shouted. "Why don't you ask Grayson!" Ethan shouted, he never shouted at me before. "Ethan shut the fuck up!" I said while turning towards Grayson. "I told you everything already!" Grayson snapped. "The baby Grayson!" Ethan shouted, my heart sunk. "What baby?" I asked. He sighed and looked away, I saw tears form in his eyes but they then disappeared, "Grayson what baby!" I screamed. "You were pregnant with my child Mackenzie, and it died when you were shot!" Grayson yelled in my face. "Fuck both of you. I'm going back home to live with my parents!" I shouted walking away but my wrist was grabbed by Ethan. "Get you hands off me." I said pulling away. "You don't have a home." Grayson said, "your mom is never around, and she sold the house when you were in a coma and Grayson told her you were staying with us." Ethan said. "My dad-" "he's dead, he passed away a while ago." Grayson said, I felt tear stream down my face. "Both of you...I fucking hate both of you. Especially you Grayson, you let me live a lie ever since I woke up from that coma and you knew it. And so did you Ethan! You knew how much Grayson meant to me, and yet you played me anyways. Fuck both of you!" I screamed while crying.
