No I didn't lose him. Because I wasn't going to walk away from him. I have to do something to get him back. I look through my phone for a picture or something to trigger his memory. I find a picture of me and him smiling. I pound on their door. Alex is the one to open it. "Alex you have to believe me, LOOK THIS IS US SAVING THE WORLD!" I tell him shoving the phone in his face. He grabs it and slowly looks up to me. "I remem....." he loses his breath. I smile and hug him so tight he almost chokes. He tells his dad all about everything we did together. I sit on his couch with him and his dad as he explains. When his dad finally understands I properly introduce myself. I hug them goodbye and go back home. But when I got home I couldn't stop thinking about Emily. I tried to forget about her but couldn't stop thinking about her. I didn't hate her but I didn't like her because she left me. But she only let me because she was afraid. So I realized, I needed to find her too. I remembered that we left each other when I found Alex. So all I had to do was go back to the spot where I found Alex and maybe she would be there. I grabbed my phone, jacket, and a bottle of water and left.
