"Should I knock or you?" Lucas asked looking confused.

My face turned bright red taking a step behind him.

"Well here goes nothing" he mumbled ringing the doorbell with me hidden behind him.

"Dude that's only making it worse" Henry mumbled. There was footsteps from the other side making my stomach.

"Making the crippled get the door I see what it is" Charlie's voice echoed seeing his face dropping when he saw Lucas and Henry.

"What are two doing here? You guys saw the interview didn't you?" He said shifting his weight on to his good leg.

"We did but someone else saw it who shouldn't have" Lucas sighed standing aside making me visible.

He looked like he was in shock. His hand began a nervous shake.

"Not that I find this really gross which I totally do but we have some important issues to discuss and we can't do that with you two staring at each other" Henry teased looking at both of us.

Without saying anything he moved out of the way making room for us to enter.

This isn't going to be awkward at all.

"Reece" Charlie asked.

I raised my head to see him up signaling me to follow him.

"We have some things to talk about" He sighed nervously scratching the back of his neck.

I nodded, afraid if I spoke my words would be inaudible.

He walked into a room, the clunk of both of our boots echoed through out the house making an oddly soothing sound.

"I'm sorry Reece, for everything. It should be me with Amnesia" he mumbled.

"Charlie, stop blaming yourself what's happened has happened. I have amnesia and your apologies aren't going to fix anything" I said looking at Charlie who's been fiddling with his fingers in his cast.

"Can you least look at me?" I asked hearing his breath go wonky.

"I can't, the dreams just stopped. I physically can't" He said sounding out of breath. He began gasping for air if he couldn't breath. His whole body trembled as he pulled his legs to his chest.

"C-Charlie look at me, breathe" I said standing in front of him looking him in the eye.

"Charlie your scaring me" I whispered beginning to panic.

"Think Reece, think" I whispered still standing in front of me.

"Well here goes nothing" I mumbled. I took ahold of his face and kissed him.

The kiss lasted longer I intended too until I realized he was kissing me and I was kissing him.

I pulled back to be greeted by his eyes.

My whole head was a mess, I felt like I was on the verge of remembering something.

"Charlie put me down!!" I screamed feeling his arms wrap around my waist.

"The chances of me putting you down are very slim" he laughed walking closer to the edge of pool.

"If  you drop me in the pool I will kill you" I laughed squirming in his arms.

"You wouldn't kill me, you love me" he teased.

"That's debatable at the moment" I mumbled.

"If you don't want me to drop you in the pool since you know it's freezing you have to kiss me" he said sounding smug with his idea.

Before he could respond I grabbed his face and kissed him, sending chills down my body.

"Something to remind you of me on your, now let me down.

"Reece are you ok?" Charlie asked seeing that I've came out of my trance.

I flopped onto the bed engulfing Charlie into a hug.

"I remembered" I said holding onto Charlie.

He was the key to remember.

The different font is Reece remembering.
There is stuff in this chapter that suck which I will fix later.
