*****************************

Mercedes Z. POV

It's been a week since I left the hospital. I've been staying at my house to recover,my dad hasn't seen me yet my mom says he's on a business trip.

Today is the first day I'm going to school, I don't remember much but my best friend, Alyssa, has been filling me in with everything that has been going on. I'm glad I remember her I don't know what I would do without my best friend.

"Mercedes!" Alyssa said, I was too caught up on thinking how my first day would go that I wasn't paying attention to her.

"What? Sorry I was just...thinking"

"What were you thinking about? We're you thinking about Tristan."

I told her that I don't remember him when I got out of the hospital,she tried to help me remember him but it didn't work since then she never brought it up
till now.

"No, I was just thinking how everything will be, you know in school."

"Oh,Don't worry about it. I will be with you the entire time."she reassured with a smile

I walked thorugh the front doors, and everyone stoped their convorsations and stared at me.

"Do i have something on my face?" Alyssa whispered

"No, why?''

"Everyone's staring at our direction."

"So,let them stare" I muttered

+++

Through the whole entire morning everyonecame up to me asking if i was okay,I responded them with "Fine,Thanks" and smiled. Now Im in my history class and dont know any of the wars, I barely even know know my own life.

My History teacher starts by saying "Everyone will be assigned a major event, in the years of 1800s to 1900s, Mercedes I understand you've been gone for a long time so I will pair you up with someone...Matt you will be Mercedes partner."

I have no is idea who Matt is until a guy from the back stands up and walks to my desk, which is in the front.

When he finally came into view I noticed his big beautiful hazel eyes, his high cheekbones and his perfectly quiffed hair.

He noticed me staring, so he smiled and waved, then sat down.

"Hey, I'm Matt." He took out his hand for me to shake

"Hi I'm Mercedes." I accepted his handshake

When the bell rang me and Matt agreed that we will do the assignment at my house. He also offered to help me around the school, you know because I can't really remember things.

+++
At lunch me and Alyssa are called by Matt to sit at the table he is at, the jocks and cheerleaders- which I'm guessing are the "populars"- because he is the quarterback of the football team. I refused to go because attention isn't really my thing, and their table is in the smack center of the small cafeteria. Unfortunately, Alyssa dragged me over to their table.

"Hi, Mercy" Tristan cleared his throat,"Um Mercedes."

I guess that seemed to trigger a memory, and all of a sudden I saw a blurry scene. Luckily, I could still see what was going on but just not see faces.

***flashback***

I was sitting in a small table, and you could hear rain in the background hitting the windows. There was a guy in front of me, but like I said I couldn't see faces.

"I think I may be I love with you, Mercy."

Before I could see any more I was brought back to reality with a nudge to my ribs.

"He asked you a question Mercedes." Alyssa scolded me

"What?"

"How is your first day going on so far?" Matt questioned

"Well, other than forgetting most of the things I learned in high school and having trouble catching up,  it's just peachy."
I shot back sarcastically

He put his head back and I heard the most joyous sound, his laugh. I am confused really because it wasn't even a joke.

When he finally finished laughing, he reached over the table and grabbed my
hand in his.

He opened his mouth to say something, but before he could say anything, Tristan got up and pushed his chair back so hard the chair fell down.

Tristan looked at mine and Matt's intertwined hands, looked at me and stormed off before I could do anything.

What was that about?

------Author's Note------

Sorry again for the wait, we couldn't really finish the chapter because of school and personal purposes.

Anyways, no school today!! Thank god for city meaningless celebration.
