Jayson's P.O.V.

"We're here!!!" She screamed, we arrived at a downtown hill that is peacefully quiet and with more green. She let out a sheet out of her bag and put it on the grassy plain. She sure is ready for this one, has she been planning this, all this time? She's scratching her head like she forgot something. "I might have forgotten the foods".
"Are you the one thad had an amnesia or me?" I foolishly said
"Good thing I always had food in my car" I saw the smile on her face lighten up like she has been presented with a gift. And now here we are in a hill feeling the cold breeze of the wind while the sunlights is stroking us to the face. It may seem kind of romantic to other people but it's just a friend to friend interaction.

"So any improvement of your memory?"
I just stayed silent for a minute and answered her question.
"No, actually, in fact not at all"
It makes me think, for over 3 months, I haven't had improvement finding my memories, well except for the pizza thing. Mom said to just wait for it to come back, but I don't think it's enough to just wait and eventually it will come back.
"Hello? Jayson, you there?"
"Oh, sorry must be a really deep thinking"
"You know, I had an advice, Why not try something new, Instead of finding something that is hard to find but eventually it will come back" looks like that advice is really serious and much like mom.
We talked and talked about random stuff, we laughed and when this serious thing came up.
It's a thing about her past, that she has been bullied ever since her elementary days and because of that she had trouble making friends and then Luke and Nicki came that day to defend her against the bullies.

Layla's P.O.V.

I can't believe I'm sharing my painful past to Jayson. With all the talking I felt my eyes getting heavy maybe because of the wind simultaneously blowing.

I woke up in an unfamiliar bed, I tried peeking at the window and it's already night time, I looked at my phone and I got 7 missed calls and 12 texts from mom. I tried looking around the room and there is Jayson outside of the window lying on the roof. Was he asleep? I tried making a sound for him to notice me that I'm awake. Looks like he's already asleep I went outside through the window, I was looking straight to his face, he looks cute when he's sleeping, I wonder if he had any bad side from his past. His eyes twitches and opened.
"Hey, its cold here outside, why don't we sleep inside your room where it's warm." I shyly said
  He just smiled in response and let me get inside first. We went to his bed  and lied down. I was staring at the ceiling, waiting for me to get sleepy, Jayson was already asleep and in surprise he hugged me maybe he was feeling cold. So i just let it be and not thinking that my mom would get angry because of me not able to go home at night and not informing her about it. 

Jayson's P.O.V.

I woke up hugging something warm, I tried looking and it was Layla my body tensed up, getting up feeling guilty of hugging her while I'm sleeping. Looks like it's gonna take time for her to wake up, besides it's school holiday and there's nothing wrong waking up late. I went to the living room and notice there's a guitar at the corner, I just hold it up and strummed it and it felt nice but there's one problem I don't know how to play guitar. I was just strumming randomly.
"You know that guitar is untuned right" I tried looking where the voice came from. "Hey up here"  I looked up, and there is Layla  looking at me , laughing. She went downstairs and ask me to hand her the guitar, I handed her the guitar and she looks like she knows what she's doing, she strummed the guitar and it sounds great. She started playing some songs and she began to sing, I just stared at her quite concentrated on what she is doing. " Hey, quit staring you look some kind of maniac" I was shocked on what she said and I just had woken from reality. "I'm just gonna get something" I informed her.  I went upstairs leaving her and from the looks of it, it looks like she likes playing guitar. I was just gonna take my shirt off and put on some new ones but Trixy came barging in to my room.  "Brother, whose the one with the beautiful voice?"
I smiled foolishly but she continued sleeping on my bed.
I went downstairs again and still she's playing the guitar. I sat beside her 
"Hey can you teach me how to play guitar?" She smiled as if she had been given a gift. She agreed and started talking nonstop,arranging the schedules. Looks like she's back from being talkative again. She gave me the guitar and started putting my fingers to each strings for the corresponding chord. Our face was mere inches away, us, staring at each other's eyes and the awkward silent comes along. The silent was interrupted by a ring of a phone, and it looks like it's hers.
The phone call was ended
"Hey I gotta get home, my mom is getting angry"
"Oh, okay I'll drive you to your house"

The ride was a bit silent, only the cars the we passed through is only the one we hear.
I tried to break off the silence but she spoke first
"Umm....  about  that.... my mom is kinda..... you know...."  Stop!!!! That's our house she pointed out. She got off the car and there is her mother waiting outside the gate of their house. I got off the car to apologize for Layla not able to come home last night, she did listen to me, I thought she was gonna scold me but she just put me into a hug, she thought I was Layla's boyfriend. Geez, now I know where she got that mind of her. Layla did explain everything to her and turns out she got scolded of sleeping to a boy's house. Layla's mom send me a smile before sending me home. I started the car but Layla's mom came knocking to my window. She invited me to eat some breakfast with them. Layla is in her awkward teases smile, her mom sure is persistent. We chatted of everything in school, my phone vibrated through my pocket, I excused myself to answer the phone call, It was Amanda and she reminded me of my checkup this morning. I put the call to an end and the door suddenly opened. My eyes widened of what I see, It is Professor Hudson.
"Jayson? What are you doing here? He seemed shock as me, I stuttered in answering but Layla came running and giving him a hug. It seemed impossible for him to be his father because he looks very young. We went to dining room and he kissed Layla's mom, now I know, he was Layla's brother. I've been trying to ask Layla if they are related but I always forget to ask her. Professor Hudson is complimenting me infront of their mom. This family is so jolly that I feel welcome for the first time I came here. The breakfast was delicious I waved goodbye to the family and started the car.

And now here I am at the hospital with Amanda waiting for the doctor to call me. The doctor said that there's nothing wrong but he did asked me some questions. So everything is okay and nothing to worry about.  Nothing to worry about, All I'm worried about is when will my memories will come back I said to myself.
Amanda and I we're eating in some kind of restaurant, I don't know the name but it's so delicious,

"Oh by the way, your Father and I had some surprise for you and you have to wait until tomorrow" 

Surprise? What Surprise??
