Chapter 1

"Hey Tori , its time to get up." my mom

said.

"Okay" I groaned as I rolled out of my bed and fell onto my bedroom floor.

It was 5:30 in the morning and my uncle, my brother and myself were all going to go camping. I hopped up from the ground and started putting on my clothes and make-up. I made sure that all of my things were packed and ready to go. Soon, my uncle arrived and we said our goodbyes and drove off.

"What's up?" My uncle Rick said as he was driving

"Nothing" Me and my brother, Nick, said at the same time.

"Well, are you guys excited for this camping trip?" My uncle said

"Ya a little." I said with a sigh

I got tired so I put my headphones in and doze off. When I woke up the sun was almost setting. I looked

over at Nick. He was sleeping like a baby. I giggled. Then when I turned back around all I saw were headlights in my face and horns honking in my ears. Then out of nowhere this huge, white diesel came at us on a full on speed, crashing into us, on the drivers side. I got knocked out. When I woke up. I was in the hospital and all of these nurses were around me. I was scared if nick and my uncle were okay.

"I...is my brother and uncle okay?" I asked nervously

"well..." one of the nurses said

"Well what..?" I asked  

"Your brother broke his right arm and left leg." the same nurse said

"What about my uncle?" I said quickly

"Your uncle.....didn't make it." the nurse said as she was tearing up "I'm so sorry about your loss."

When the nurse said that, I was bawling my eyes out. The nurse comforted me as much as she could. I started to calm down and realize where were me and my brother going to go and how far were we from our house. Also if my mom knows yet. Man I don't want to be the one to tell her. I thought in my head as the nurse was hugging me. My mom would be worse than me. He was her only sibling. And her parents also died in a car crash. So it was just my mom, my brother, and me.

As the nurse stopped hugging me she said "You can go home at the end of the week but you do have a minor concussion and you are very lucky that you aren't paralized." The nurse stopped and paused "but ur brother on the other hand, can't. He has a concussion, he doesn't remember who any one is, where he was going, or even his name. Also we have to cast his leg and arm."

"How long would he have to be in the hospital?" I asked

"I don't know. It would depend on how fast his memory comes back." The nurse said

"Could I stay here and help him?" I asked hoping she would say ya

"Ya I guess you could. But I don't know where you would sleep though." The nurse said unsurely

"I could sleep in the same room...or I  could even sleep..." The nurse cut me off

"Haha..its okay I will find you a place to sleep for a couple of days." The nurse said laughing

"Okay" I said with relief

Later the nurse found me a place to sleep, which was in another room that wasn't being used.

The next morning I woke up, changed, ate breakfast, and then I went up to see my brother. When I went up there to see him, he was half asleep. I was hoping that he would remember me. I finally arrived to his room and of course he didn't remember me or anything.

"Who are you?!?" He said
