"I love you.." He said.

"You love me. If you love me so much, then why would you treat me like this? I have been through hell for the past month. I thought I loved you too. But why Cameron? Why should you treat me like shit, and just say that you love me out of nowhere?"I said getting more confused and frustrated by the second.

"Ava, if you only knew? If I had one wish, one wish at all, it would be for me to tell you, tell you everything." He said tears threatening to show.

"See we all made a promise to keep everything the way it was after it happened. Made sure it would be completely normal for you." Cameron said sounding ashamed every time he heard a word escape his lips.

"Cameron, I have no idea what you are talking about!" I said confusion clearly on my face.

"Good.." Cameron said while slowly waking away..

I decided to leave school early since I was too confused to learn anything. I had a successful few hours though. Four guys asked for my number. But I still couldn't get anything of what he said out of my thoughts. It's like right when I start to think of something else it comes right back to him or something he said.

"After it happened" he said. What is that supposed to mean! I have to ask someone about this. My sister? No, she would make some smart aleck remark. My parents? I don't know. I didn't really tell them I was dating Cameron in the first place, so yeah no. Lilly, I will talk to her when I get and apology.

Right when I was in the middle of my thoughts I heard the doorbell. I get up and open my door to see.. Kyle?

What is he doing here?

"Uh hey Ava, I Uhm need to talk to you." He said like he was nervous. "Okay, what's up?" I replied with a small smile.

"It's about Cameron." He said and my heart dropped.

"Do we really have to talk about him right n-" I tried to say when he cut me off. "Yes Ava. We do." Kyle said with a quiet yet deep tone.

~~~

"Ava, I know that nothing makes since to you right now, but hopefully I can try to clear some things up." He said, relief washing over me that I would get some answers. "I know Cameron. I don't know if you remember this, but Cameron and I were best friends all through elementary school through the beginning of high school. Actually we were all best friends. Me, you, Lilly, and him. We were all so close, but me and you were really close." Kyle said, me having no clue if he was being serious or not. None of this rang a bell except for Me being friends with Lilly. "I liked you a lot, But Cameron was in love with you. Every day we would walk home and he would just go on and on about how much he thought you were amazing and beautiful." Kyle said making my heart flutter at what he had said.

"Then that day came. The day that changed everything." He said making my heart pound from anticipating what he was about to say.

"It was the last day of sophomore year. We had a party for the last day at one of Camerons friends' house. You and I

went out on the back patio to be alone. We kissed." Kyle said making my jaw drop. How come I can't remember any of this?

"Cameron saw. It broke his heart. You went after him." Kyle said, tears threatening to escape my eyes.

"You had an argument. That's all I know. It was pretty bad. He said that he had always loved you, and you said that you didn't know anything about that." Kyle said, me trying to remember any of this.

"You had the argument in the car. Cameron was pretty drunk. You were in an accident Ava." He said tears spilling out of my eyes.

"How come I can't remember anything?" I asked not wanting to hear the response. "You hit your head. You lost a part of your brain that is long-term. You can remember some of your friends, but you forgot everything you knew about Cameron. I'm just guessing he was just another face in the school." Kyle said while I was thinking of how I always thought about Cameron.

"Did I really like you?" I asked Kyle not trying to be rude, but I just couldn't see us being together. "Uh well here's the thing. You were also in love with Cameron, but you didn't want to be." He said making me confused at why I wouldn't want to love Cameron.

"You thought it would ruin your friendship with eachother. I kissed you to get your mind off of it. I liked you. This is all my fault, and I'm so sorry I did this to you. I really liked you. I wanted you to be with me and not him. But I didn't know that all of this would've happened when I kissed you. I'm so sorry Ava." Kyle said tears slowly rolling down his cheeks.

He put his head in his hands, sobbing like this is the worst thing he could've done. I engulfed him into a hug. It wasn't his fault at all. I completely understand that he had feelings for me.

"Kyle, thank you. Thank you for telling me. If only I could remember what everyone else knew. It isn't your fault. I'm glad that you told me the truth when no one else bothered. But I have one question. Have you all been acting like nothing happened since the accident?"I asked genuinely confused. "Yes, we thought it would be for the better. You were unconscious when we brought you home. You were out for a good month. A coma. Cameron made a promise to your parents and everyone that he would stay away from you. He would pretend that he didn't know you, no matter what happened. How much pain he would go through. He would stay away. Just so you could be safe from then on." Kyle said making my heart ache more and more by the second.

"Thank you, Kyle for telling me. I really appreciate it."I said while standing up ready to be done with this conversation. "No problem. I just hope you aren't mad at me. I have had so much guilt built up in my chest, And the fact that Cameron hated me ever since he saw me kissing you just made me feel like a terrible person."Kyle said while we walked to the front door.

"Well I should probably be leav-" he tried to say when I cut him off with a kiss. That's the most I could do right now. I wanted to thank him, and I know that he liked me so why not?

That's when someone opened the door.

Cameron...
