I walked into the school and saw my friends Lexi, Hannah, and Timmy standing and talking by my locker.

"Hey guys," I said.

"Hey," they said. Then I saw a super cute guy walk by. He stood there for a minute and looked at me then he just walked away. Though I couldn't really be super shocked I'm not the prettiest or anything.

"Who is the new guy?"

"That's Braydon. He moved here from Texas," Lexi said.

"He is really cute," I said then I walked away towards my social studies class.

"I will see you guys in gym," I said.

I saw Braydon in my social studies class but I was to shy to say anything. So I just went through class without saying anything. He really is cute though. We had every class together. Every time I saw him I thought man he is cute. He had a different feel about him something most guys don't have.

I walked into gym and there was Lexi staring at Braydon but she had the nerve to talk to him. She went up to him and they were talking and laughing but I couldn't quite make out what they were saying. I did get the gist though when he kissed her. She made her move on him.

"Guess what??" she said.

"What," I replied in a little bit of a rude tone. "I got the cute guys number and he wants to take me to the movies," she said clearly excited.

Then Hannah and Timmy can over and they were all talking but I wasn't really paying attention all I could do is stare at the cute guy and the thing was he was staring back at me. Then he winked at me. I think he might like me.

After gym I walked home and kept thinking and thinking about him.

Dear diary,

The new guy at school is super cute but I can't tell if he is interested in me or Lexi or none of the above.

* * * * 3 days later. * * *

I walk into gym and Lexi is all hanging over Braydon, makes me sick. I mean she barely knows him. They are like officially dating but I'm certain it will be official soon. Then he looks over and winks at me again. He does that everyday and it's starting to freak me out. Then him and Lexi walk over, oh the joy. Lexi, Hannah, and Timmy are talking about some movie they have all seen or something.

then Braydon starts talking to me he is like, "Hey!" Wow!! Hey? Really?

Though I still reply "Hey Braydon." then he whispers, "You know I don't like Lexi right?? I like you but I don't know how to tell her politely. Got any ideas?" I smiled, which I admit may have been a little rude saying Lexi is my best friend but I couldn't help it.

He likes me and not her!! Then I calmly said, "I think you need to tell her because the longer you wait the more likely she is to believe you are truly interested, even though you aren't." "Thanks," he said.

He walked over to Lexi and told her something, I couldn't quite hear what he was saying. I did guess that he was telling her he wasn't interested. I also get the feeling he told her that he liked me cause she gave me this 'I am going to kill you' look.

Braydon walked over and said, " Now how about that movie?"

"What movie," I replied. "The one I'm going to take you to," he replied with a smile that looked really good on him but with a hint of mischief in it too. "I guess I really have no choice then," I said while having that same look.

* * * * 4 months later. * * *

Braydon and me are going out now. We have been for 3 and a 1/2 months. We have all our classes but we sit nowhere near each other. The only time we get to hang out is during gym. we r playing wall ball and I am up to kick. I kicked pretty well. The ball came at me then it hit me in the head. Then I went down. I feel really heavy, the world is really spinning, and then it all went black.......

"Woah! What happened?" I said. "Your head got hit with a ball," said I don't know who. "Who are you?" I said. "It's me. Lexi," she said. "Who? Who am I?" "Kathryn?? Are you ok?" she said. "Who is Kathryn? I'm fine. Did you guys know you are tall?" "She has completely lost it," a guy with blonde hair said, "maybe she would remember Braydon," said the blonde guy. "Good idea. Braydon!!" said the lady called Lexi. Then a cute guy walked up he had brown hair and blue eyes.

"Hey. Do you remember me?" he said. "No, but your cute and old." He smiled, then pulled me to my feet, then said, "You are just as old as I am." "I am?" I asked. "Yea your 16 just like the rest of us," he said and he got a look of worry.

"Who are you guys? How do I know you? Where am I?" I said so confused, everything is fuzzy. The blonde guy says, "I'm Timmy." then he pointed to the short girl with curly brown hair and said, "This is Hannah." Then he pointed to the cute guy and said, "Braydon." Lastly he pointed to the medium height, super pretty blonde and said, "Lexi."

Lexi had red puffy eyes like she had been crying or rubbing her eyes or something. " How can she not remember me? I'm her best friend!" When she said that she was talking to Braydon, I think that's his name. And when she talked she sounded horse almost like she really had been crying.

Braydon said, " she should remember you? I'm her boyfriend. God!! What am I going to do without her?" he seemed upset, hold on did he just say boyfriend??

"Wait," I said, "your my boyfriend? Then how come I don't remember you? Or you Lexi since you are my bestfriend?"

Then an old dude came over and said, "You good Kathryn?" "Who are you? and who is this Kathryn?? Where am I??" I said repeating my questions cause no one has answered them. "Ok so she is not good," said the old guy, "Lexi take her to the nurse to have her head checked. the rest of you go back to the game."

Lexi walked me to the nurse and told the nurse what happened but what surprised me is that she didn't leave after that. She stayed and hung out with me the whole time. Then the nurse told me that the ball to my head had messed with my memory. she also said she didn't know when my memories would come back. Lexi then said, "Ok then, let's get you to the buses so that you can go home.".

When we got to the buses Lexi asked me something about the bus I rode. Why would I know what bus I ride? is that something I need to know? I looked around and saw Lexi talking to 2 old guys I don't remember. So I decide I was going to walk around to see if it would jog my memories.

I know what things are called and how to read and I even know how to do a geometric proof but I can't remember the memories. I can't remember my friends, my boyfriend, anyone, my name, where I live, where I am, or memories of things I should remember like a first kiss or my first boyfriend. It is driving me insane!!

Then I got a flash of a memory of what seat I sat in on the bus. I didn't really think about what I was going to do so I just walked into a random bus but then Lexi came running up and told me that, that wasn't my bus and then she apologized to the driver and said, "Kathryn, you can't just walk onto a random bus." "Why not," I asked. "You just cant," she said and I can tell she meant it.

They finally figured out what bus I ride. I ride bus 7. I still don't know where I live though. I think someone should have told me that so I know when to get off.

As I'm sitting on the bus I'm letting my mind wander and I can't help worrying. What if my boyfriend hates the me who doesn't remember?? What if my friends end up hating me?? I am going to ruin everyone's life because they are going to have to constantly remind me of things and tell me what is going on. I don't know much about myself but I can tell I hate having to rely on others and I am going to have to do that for a while. Then the big question hit me, hard I might add, what if my memory doesn't come back?
