Forgotten

Chapter 7

Zayn's p.o.v

*****

"Just leave" I told him.

"Fine" he said and walked away.

I couldn't believe it.

How could I do this to (y/n)? How could I ruin her life and then expect her to be my girlfriend?

No wonder she was so scared of me at first.

I can't believe I completely forgot who she was. I was such a terrible person as a child and I've completely changed but how could I just forget her?

I knew she was so familiar when I met her but I had no idea that she was the person I completely ruined.

I was so pissed at myself. I'm the reason she has no friends. I was the reason she was always alone.

How could she just forgive me and be my girlfriend?

She was so incredible and I had no idea why I was so mean to her as a child. She is just so perfect. I don't deserve her after what I did to her childhood.

I didn't know what to do but kneel to the ground and cry. All the memories of me trapping her it the closet and pushing her in the hallways kept flashing through my mind.

It was horrifying.

Remembering the terrifying look on her small face was too much to bear. I couldn't control it. I let the tears flow just like she did when she was 8.

Why hasn't she said anything about what I did to her? She had so many opportunities to remind me of the terrible person I was but she didn't.

Why would she let me even go near her after who I was? Why was she giving me the chance to let me make up for what I did but I didn't even remember that I did any of it until now?

I had to make up to her for everything I did. I would do anything to get her to accept my apology. What was I going to say?

'Oh I completely forgot my childhood and I forgot that I ruined your life' it sounded ridiculous. How could she have just been forgotten...

(y/n) p.o.v

"Zayn?" you tried to get the crying man's attention.

He looked up at you with tears streaming down his face. Why was he so upset to see you?

"What's wrong?" You asked and kneeled down next to him.

"I...I'm so sorry (y/n)" he apologized but you had no idea why he was apologizing to you.

"For what?" You asked.

"I...I remember" he could barely answer.

That's when it hit you. He must of remembered who he was and what he did to you 5 years ago.

"I forgot everything when I moved to England. They made me forget and they completely changed me. When I came back to this school I did not recognize you. I forgot that I ruined your life. Now I remember everything. I'm so sorry (y/n). How could I do this to you? How were you able to forgive me so easily and be my girlfriend" He explained.

You had no idea that he had forgotten his entire childhood. You didn't know what to say.

He was so different now and he was so much better but was that enough for you to forgive what he did in the past?

You had to forgive him. The way he felt so bad for what he did and the way it made him cry was too much.

"It's ok Zayn I forgive you. I know you made my life miserable but now you're different. Now you made the last two days the best days of my life. I have an amazing boyfriend now thanks to you. You are everything I could ever ask for." You forgave him and kissed his tear covered lips.

"You are so amazing (y/n). I can't believe you forgave me for everything I did. I promise I will make you the happiest girl in the world. You will no longer be the miserable girl you were as a child. I just need to know one thing." He said.

You couldn't help but smile at how much he cared about you even though all those terrible memories were flashing through your mind.

"What?" You asked.

"What did you do to yourself when I bullied you?" He asked.

You didn't want to tell him. It would only make him cry more.

"You don't want to know" you told him.

"Yes I do (y/n). Tell me" he demanded.

"Ok well I use to cut myself everyday and I always thought about killing myself" you confessed.

As soon as he heard those words even more tears streamed down his face.

He couldn't even look at you.
