A few days passed until I had something happen... I felt myself shaking, and I couldn't stop it... Several doctors came in and tried to stop me, but I don't know what caused it... I blacked out again...

When I woke up, Landon and Joel were in my room. LANDON AUSTIN WAS IN MY ROOM! He smiled at me, then kissed me.

"Landon, I love that you're here, but could I have a moment to talk to Joel?" He smiled and got up, taking his friends out. I was still fangirling about Landon Lee Austin kissing me, Erika Longbottom! When he left, I started fangirling all over the place. "JOEL! How did you get Landon Austin to come here?!?! I mean, he lives in Nashville! Does mom know? She must know!" Joel just looked at me confused, then pointed to my hand. I looked down and noticed a ring... An engagement ring, and a big one at that! "Joel.... What's going on... I want mom! I'm not engaged.... and I'm not pregnant!!" I started to cry because I was so worried. I'm 16 and pregnant! I've never even had sex, never mind gotten engaged. Joel just looked at my confused, then came over and hugged me. "Joel... I want Mom..." Then he let go, and walked out of the room. I rubbed my showing stomach and tried to remember whose baby it is, even though I never partied, dated, or slept with anybody.... Joel came back in, and gave me a sympathetic look. 

Joel: Hunny... You aren't 16... You're 23, engaged, and expecting...

What!?! No, I'm Erika Longbottom! I'm 16, I live in Philadelphia with my mom, I've never had a proper boyfriend... "So... who exactly am I engaged to..?" He gave me a sympathetic look and took my hand. 

Joel: Erika...You're engaged to Landon... Why do you think he kissed you... It's because you love each other! For a whole year you guys have loved each other... 

No, not that long.... I didn't even know who he was a year ago... Not until he put up the cover of chocolate rain a few months ago...

Joel: And, Erika, a few more things... You aren't in Philadelphia... And your mother is no longer with us...

"Mom left me!? What, why!? No! Joel, this isn't funny Joel! Where is she!?" No, my mom didn't leave me alone! She idn't do what Dad did! "JOEL, WHY AREN'T YOU TELLING MY YOU'RE JOKING?!" So many thoughts crossed my mind, the memory of my dad leaving... My brother dying... Was she dead, or did she willingly leave?! I felt tears well up in my eyes, and Joel came over and hugged me. "Joel... Is she..."

Joel: I'm sorry, sweetheart... You're mother is gone...

I felt an intense pain in my stomach, and I doubled over in pain. Then my head hurt... Then nothing hurt... Joel left the room, and a bunch of men came in... I couldn't hear or see them, but I felt them... They were injecting a lot of stuff into me, and soon I could see them again... Landon, Joel and Alex were there, along with a few people I didn't recognize... One was very tall with light brown hair, and verry skinny. Another was short, had short black hair, and was very muscular. The last one was tall, black hair, and a very nerdy stature about him.

Landon: Erika.. This is  Luke, Sawyer, and Jason.

They all came over and hugged me...  I tried being happy about it, but the fact that there were three strangers in my room kinda creeped me out... Soon, they left, along with Joel, leaving just me and Landon. He gave me a weak smile and pulled out his laptop, laying next to me in bed.

Landon: I made a video of all the vlogs and music videos we did since we met... Even our first texts...

He played a video which showed an older version of me playing all the instruments I play, singing, vlogging, and even some text messages. Landon occasionally pointed at the screen and laughed, or blushed awkwardly.Eventually it came to a point where it showed him proposing to me... I wanted to feel happy, but I couldn't.... The video ended, and Landon wiped a happy tear from him cheek, and bent down to kiss me. Instinctively, I scooted backwards, and he ended up drooping his head. I genuinely felt bad for him, I was just so confused...

Landon: Erika, I know you're probably so confused right now, but I want you to know I'll always love you, even if you don't get your memory back and never remember anything we ever did. 

He took my hand and held it to his lips. "Landon... to me we just met, but something churning in my stomach... and in my heart knows we should be together... I felt that way since you walked into the room..." He kissed my hand, and trailed his kisses slowly up my arm. I giggled, and he whispered into me, "Just tell me when to stop, okay? I don't wanna rush things for you..." I laughed a bit, realizing how much I really meant to him. He got up to my surprisingly strong bicep, and I looked down at him."Stop...." He looked at me with sad, yet understanding eyes."You're wasting your time, Landon... My lips are up here." I smiled and cupped his face, pulling him close to me. We kissed for a while before I pulled myself back. Landon just smiled at me and rubbed my hand. He was happy.

I sincerely apologize for the short hiatus, but I missed so much school and had so much makeup work. I hope y'all can forgive me.  Also, I'd love to hear your comments about this memory loss! Should it stick around a while, or cut it short? Any-who, hope you're having a woooonderful day!  Also, chapter 50 is coming up, and let me tell you, it's about to go down! -Ema
