Reviving Talise

Chapter 19

Everyone just sat there in shock. Like they thought I was going to have surgery. It got really awkward. I let go of Joel's hand a while ago.

"Uh, I kinda wanna hear your thoughts!" I said. The guys just sat there.

"I think its a good choice. As I said, I'll be on your side with this." Seth broke the silence.

"Me too." Aaron quickly added.

"I have a headache." My mom said as she stood up and walked towards her room. "I'm going to bed"

I rolled my eyes and looked at Matt.

"I think that's the best decision" Matt said slowly.

"I think you should get surgery" Trey said nonchalantly.

Everyone looked at him like he was crazy.

"Me too" Christine said. Everyone looked back at  her.

"I already heard your guys' opinions before my answer. But Joel said he would stick to my side no matter what. He promised. Right?" I looked at him along with everyone else.

"Uh, I just thought maybe you would want surgery" he says slowly.

I looked at him with confused eyes.

"You told me you would respect my decision?" I ask confused like.

"Yeah I know, but if you really wanted to know my thoughts, well yeah." he said as he fidgets with his hand.

"Honestly, why do you guys want me to regain my memory back?" I looked at Trey, Joel and Christine.

"We just don't want you to loose the memories we had before" Christine says.

"I think our say should be included though" Trey says.

I stood up filled with anger.

"No, at the end of the day, it's my decision whether I want this or not!" I stepped towards Trey. He stands up and backs up. Matt immediately grabs a hold of me, along with Seth and Aaron.

"Talise!" Matt says loudly.

"I mean it. If no ones--" I started.

"No!" Matt interrupted. "You asked for their opinions. They told you. You can't get mad!"

He was holding on to my waist so tightly, I almost wheezed.

I stopped and calmed myself, letting the guys to gently release me.

They all sat back down looking at me. Where they waiting for me to change my mind or something? Tears came into my eye thinking they wanted me to remember the crash.

"I'm gonna just go" I say. I run off to my room and lock my door behind me.

I cry and cry. I thought this choice would be easy. On everyone? I guess not.

I heard banging on my door from the guys telling me to open up. I ignored them.

 I fell asleep alone that night.

The next morning I woke up to seagulls and the sound of the ocean. I changed into my bathing suit and climbed out my window. I grabbed my surfboard from the shed and ran to the water. This was my turn to try.

I splashed in the water and prayed that I could do this. I paddled out and looked for a good wave. Once I found one, I dove under and rose up to catch it. Now I had to balance. One foot at a time. I was standing up perfectly. The wave pushed me closer to the shore and I fell off smiling, knowing I actually surfed.

I did it a couple more times. I was about to stop surfing until I heard clapping from behind the woods. Out came Aaron, Trey, Christine, Joel, Matt and Seth cheering for me.  I ran over to Christine and she hugged me tightly.

"I knew you could do it!" she squealed!

I hugged Joel and he spun me around and I kissed him. Just like in the DVD.

Matt and Seth hugged me. This was a breakthrough.

I smiled the whole time. Cherishing every compliment. We all ran into the water until it reached our knees. We splashed each other laughing. I ran behind Christine and jumped on her back, causing her to fall into the water, soaking her clothes.

"Your paying for this Talise!" She said as she chased my down the shore. I quickly stopped and tripped her causing her to fall in again. I couldn't stop laughing!

Joel picked my up and spun me around throwing me into the sea. I came up laughing. He picked me back up bridal style and held me close to his chest.

"I'm kinda glad you didn't get surgery" he whispered.

I grinned. "Really?"

"Really." he kissed me on the cheek and handed me to Trey.

"So your gonna give me to him?" I squirm trying to break free from Trey's grip.

Trey smirked and gently set me down.

I dust myself off. "Thank you" I say to him.

He pushes me forward and I lunge into the water.

I rise back up, not angry or upset, but happy.

"Wake up for school" Matt leans over my bed.

"I don't wanna go to some stupid school!" I groan.

He nudges me.

"I swear, Matt, if your gonna pour water all over me, I can punch you so hard, the next generation of your sons won't have balls" I threat.

"I don't have water!" He claims.

"Good" I say. He swoops me up and carries me outside.

"What are you doing!" I scream.

He throws me into the pool and I gasp as I fly in the air into the frozen water.

I come up, smoke practically coming out of my ears.

I climb up and run after him around the yard. I finally get a hold of him and start punching him in the arm.

"You done?" he grunts.

"Yeah!" I say as I walk towards the towels.

He follows me and I quickly turn around and punch him in the stomach.

"Fair enough" he moans. I dry myself off, take a shower and get ready for technically my first day of school.
