I wake up to a dim room, my eyes are blurry making me blink several times. My mouth is dry and wishing for a cold glass of water. I rub my eyes trying to focus passed the blurry vision I am experiencing. I don't recognize my surrounding, and nobody is around and it's quiet. I call for help, no one answers back. I tried getting up, but my arms are bound by something. I feel weak, and tired.

"Hello, is someone out there"? I feel scared not knowing what is going on, and being alone. I start screaming, and pulling the binding material off my arms.

A bright light comes on, I shut my eyes as the light burns my eyes. I hug my legs and try to curl up in a small ball. I hear a man's voice, "Ma'am my name is Dean Bradley, I'm your nurse, here at the hospital. How are you feeling"?

" W Why am I at the hospital"? I ask shaking, and hugging myself. "We can talk about that once Dr. McLenna is here. We really need to check you out, and make sure everything is ok. How are you feeling"? "I don't know. Fine I guess. Can I get some water please?" "Yes Ma'am, let me go get you some, and I will let the Dr. know your awake".

I try getting use to the light, it seems so bright in here, I rub my eye, but they are still blurry. I grab more of my blankets and pull them up on me even more. They are a little comforting, but not much. I tuck the blanket under my chin trying to hide myself.

Dean comes back in with my water, he is alone. "Can I raise the head of your bed up so you can drink more comfortable"? "Yes please". He does so and hands me my water. Feeling the coldness of the water going down my throat a soothing feeling from the dryness.

I look up at Dean the person I don't know, but the only person I have seen since I have woken up. He has a kind look to him, and he is CUTE looking, with his blue eyes and dark wavy hair.

"I I don't understand why I am here at the hos hospital". He gives me this look that I don't understand. I tilt my head at him and pull on the blankets hugging them, and myself. "You don't remember why you're here yourself"? Dean ask me "N no I I don't remember". What was I doing when I came in? I asked myself. I tried to remember, but I couldn't remember. I couldn't just let it go I kept trying to remember.

Dean looks down at her and sees how upset she is. He still thinks she is the most beautiful women on earth even right now, with her being upset, and her brown eyes, and long wavy hair. Let me go check on the Dr. and see what is holding her up. "P please don't leave me alone". I say with tears in my eyes. "I will just be outside your door that is where the nurses desk is at." Dean runs his fingers though his hair, and looks at me with a sad look. "NO, I I'm scared pl please stay". I yell and hug my blanket and myself.

"Okay, its fine I won't leave. Can I walk to the door and get a nurse to come here, so I can talk to her please"? I had a lump in my throat, and I swallowed very hard, with a shake of my head. "y yes that is o okay, just don't leave me pl please". "No, I won't leave you, its okay. I will stay here as long as you need me".

I see she keeps playing with her blanket and almost got herself uncover at her feet. Would you like another blanket"? She shakes her head yes. "Okay, do you want a warm blanket, or just a blanket from the linen closet"? "Warm" "Okay, let me get a nurse, and she can get it for us". I nod my head in agreement.

Dean stands at the door looking towards the nurses desk, getting a nurse to come to him. Next thing I see is a red head nurse walking up too him. "As you can see she is awake now, I have let Dr. McLenna know. I haven't seen her yet. Can you go get her for me please? Also we can use a couple of warm blanket too." "Sure thing Dean be right back".

Dr. McLenna showed up before Karen got back with the blankets. "Hi, its nice to see you awake. I'm your Doctor, my name is Dr. Stephanie McLenna, I'd like to check you over and make sure everything is okay with you. Is that okay with you?" "Are you going to hur hurt me"? "No, we won't hurt you." "Okay, you can just don't hurt me".

She checked me over and didn't hurt me like she said. I was scared she would. "You look really good, we did do some test when you got here, but we will need to do further testing, just to make sure we didn't miss anything". "Will they hu hurt me"? I asked because, I don't know what is going on. "No, they won't hurt you".

"Can I ask you some questions, I like to get to know you". Dr asked me. I look at her for a minute and hug my blanket for comfort. Dr. McLenna has really pretty eyes they are a sky blue which goes good with her blond hair. She don't look like a mean lady. "C can Dean stay with me pl please"? I ask, in fear of being alone. "Does Dean make you feel comfortable"? "Yes, he don't leave me a alone. He is nice to me". "If you want Dean to stay with you for a while he can stay with you".

"Oh Oh Oh Thank you so much, you make me feel not as scared. I will do the test and you may ask me quest questions". "Thank you". She asked me a bunch of questions that I couldn't answer. Just as she was going to ask me the next question the red head nurse walked in with my blankets. She handed them to Dean and he covered me up with them. They was so warm. "Do you remember why your in the hospital"? I paused, I dropped my jaw open, and was frozen. I can't remember. I start pulling my knees up to my chest and hugged myself and my blanket.

"No no I don't please tell me". Dr. McLenna and Dean both had the same look on their faces, and was looking at each other. I got mad at them. "Tell me, tell me n now"! "Here is the thing we don't know. We found you downstairs by the doors, you had fallen and you went into a comma". I stopped to think about what they just told me. "So,.. Who... When, Who am I"? "We don't know we did everything we could to figure out who you are, but there is no record on you. We are so sorry.

I feel warm tears going down my cheeks. I just rolled on my side with my blanket in my arms, and my knees pulled up to my chest. I closed my eyes and just let the tears warm my cheeks. I hear Dr. McLenna "I will be back later, and we can talk then". Dean sits in the chair next to my bed "I will be right here for you. Don't worry I won't be leaving you".
