Chapter 8 Amnesia?

After an hour of travelling by train, you are now sitting in Joe's car on your way to the hospital. Joe heard the news too and had come to pick you up from the train station.

You started to panic. You have no idea what had happened and you are so scared that Dan might be in some very bad situation. You started to shiver and sweat as the trip goes on endlessly.

"Are we there yet?" You asked again in less than 5 minutes, yet it felt like years. You sound like a 5-year-old kid but you couldn't help it.

"(Y/n), just relax. Dan is gonna be fine." Joe looked over to you from the driver's seat with a smile on his face. He tries to comfort you as he always do when you panic. You're glad you have such best friend.

----

When you arrived to the hospital, it's 4am. Joe went to park his car while you dashed into the hospital like crazy. You rushed to Dan's ward as fast as you could. You wanted to see him, you wanted to see him safe and conscious.

"Dan!!" You slammed open the ward door and three people turned their heads towards you instantly.

Phil, Dr. Collins and... Dan.

"D-d-Dan...?" You panted, you're still trying to catch your breath as you slowly walk up to them.

Dan is sitting on his bed with less bandages since you last saw him. He looks more alive than before. His face is still pale and his hair is in a mess. Phil and Dr. Collins are standing by the bed, they're probably having a conversation before you crashed in.

"Miss (y/l/n)," Dr. Collins started, clearing her throat a bit, "this is a hospital. Please do not run or shout. You might disturbed other patients."

"So-sorry..." You apologises but your eyes are locked to Dan's. They looked familiar yet empty and lost. They looked like they belong to an innocent child.

"(Y/n)?" Dan mumbled, causing the two turned to stare at him.

"(Y/n)? Is that you?" Dan asked louder this time, he tried to get off the bed but the wounds definitely still hurt him as he winced at every movement.

"Mr. Howell, your body isn't fully recovered yet. You will only hurt more if you make too much movement." Dr. Collins said helping Dan back into his bed.

Dr. Collins then turn to you, "Miss (y/l/n), Mr. Lester, I wanted to talk to you both now. Please follow me."

You didn't broke your stare with Dan's until Phil lightly tapped your shoulder, "Come on (y/n)."

5 minutes later you and Phil are sitting inside of Dr. Collins office, she has been walking back and forth with a clip broad, looking really concerned.

"So..." She started, looking up from the clip broad to you and Phil, "Mr. Howell's case is pretty rare. We thought he has amnesia, but not after you came." She locked eyes with you, "Mr. Howell seems to remember you, Miss (y/l/n)."

Dr. Collins looked away, picking up a Xray sheet of what looks like a brain and examine it. "We still need to figure out what causes him to forget and why only he remembers you but not Mr. Lester." She paused for a moment before looking back at us, "that's why I need some answers."

Oh no, You thought, this is not gonna end well.

Luckily, Dr. Collins didn't asked anything personal. She only asked you what period of time did you came into Dan's life.

After like half an hour, you and Phil walked out of her office. It felt like you were just being questioned by a police officer. The atmosphere was so tense and serious that your heart rate had sped up.

You and Phil are walking silently down the hospital hallway. Doctors and nurses are all too busy to noticed you two. You opened your mouth wanting to say something but nothing came out.

"So, what now?" Phil asked, finally breaking the awkward silence.

"Well, since Dan is awake, maybe we can ask something out of him?" You replied looking up to meet his blue eyes.

"Sounds good," he grins.

"Hey, you're back! Where have you been?"

As soon as you walked into Dan's ward, you are immediately greeted by Joe. You gave him a smile and walked past him to the bed. Joe then gave a confused look to Phil who follows you in. They started to talk very quietly, but you are not interested with their conversation because you're focusing on "another thing".

Dan is lying in the bed with his eyes closed. You examined his face closely as you walked towards the bed. The beautiful face reminds you of your youth and every small feature of him cause memories to flood inside your brain.

You reached out your hand to push his hair away from his face to get a closer look. "Good Morning, (y/n)," Dan opens his eyes, smiling.

You are not shocked or surprised to it because you're used to Dan's little tricks. "Hi," you respond.

Dan tries to sit up but failed. You put a hand on his shoulder motioning him to lie back down. He sighed.

"Where am I?" He asked after getting himself in a comfortable position.

"Hospital, idiot."

"Why am I here?"

"You were found unconscious and injured that's why you're here."

"I don't recall that..." He put a hand on the back of his head.

"What's your last memory then?" You tried questioning him to see what he remembers.

"Class.. We were having history lesson with Mr. Winston." He answered almost immediately.

You raised an eyebrow to that answer. Dan looks at you with a determined look. After a while that you decided that he is not going to say anything further. You looked away, deep in thought.

He doesn't look like he is lying. If he ever lies, his ears will go red. You looked over to the boys on the other side of the room who are already looking at you. Apparently, they heard that too.

You looked back at Dan who is now very confused. "Do you remember him?" You pointed at Joe.

Dan looked over to the person and back at you, "Of course I do, he is Zoe's little brother, Joe Sugg."

Zoe was the cheer leader in your high school. Many boys fell for her. Dan was one of them, he had the biggest crush on her before you became his girlfriend.

"How long have I been out?" Dan asked again.

"About a month." Phil replied.

"Wow, I must have missed so many classes." Dan exclaimed to the fact, "I really need to catch up with my lessons."

"Actually, Dan you're not-" Joe started but you interrupted him immediately, "Not well enough to... To go back to school!" You barked.

Surprisingly, Dan seems to believe you. Phew! So close... You shot a look at Joe, he shrugged.
