"Can I have my phone?" she asked pointing towards the end table in the corner. I got up and grabbed it, I looked over her shoulder as she scanned through her phone. 

"What happened to Nash's and Sara's numbers?" she asked confused.

"You have to figure it out on your own," I said sadly. I can't believe I'm letting her go, but she deserves to find out what happened herself. All I want is to run over to her and kiss her, but I can't she doesn't know me. 

"How was our relationship?" she asked intrigued.

"It was amazing, I loved you, and I still do. You made me feel like something I've never felt before. The doctors said there is no way you can remember me though, I wish you would," I admitted. A doctor came in to check on Danielle, I just sat there and listened to what was going on.

"How are you feeling?" he asked nicely.

"I feel a lot better, but my head hurts a little. When can I go home? I wanna figure out my life," she said looking at him innocently.

"According to our results, you've been a remarkable case Danielle. You might be able to go home tomorrow, you've been healing quickly, but all the memories that have been recent wil never come back. I'm sorry," he said. He walked out of the room quickly. She showed no emotion on her face.

"Isn't that good that you get to go home?" I asked with a smile.

"Well, yeah but I have to figure out the spaces in between my life that I lost. I want to live the way I've been, since you said I was happy, and it seems perfect. I'm scared that I might not be able to love you like you love me," she said. A part of me feels happy that she wants to live her life the way Courtney and I tried to explain to her, but another part of me is scared. Scared that she won't fall back in love. It was getting late, and I watched the sunset with her.

"The sunset is so beautiful," she said as she watched it through the window. 

"Yeah it is isn't it?" I said. When ever I watch the sunset, it always makes me think of her. I can't lose my sunset. 

Nightfall aproached abruptly, but I wasn't that tired, she was starting to fall asleep. I just sat there watching her, she was so delicate and fragile. I knew all her sensitive spots, her pet peeves, and her ticklish spots. She knows none of mine, nothing. Everything is gone. My eyes started to become heavy, and I fell asleep after a few minutes of trying to wake myself up. 

*THE NEXT DAY*

I woke up sitting in the same chair I was in all night last night. She was awake watching Sex and the City, her favorite television show. 

"Good morning sleepyhead," she said through a laugh.

"Good morning. Would it be awkward if I said you looked beautiful with the sun hitting you like that?" I asked. Then I just realized even if it was awkward, I just said it.

"Thank you," she said plainly. I guess it was kinda awkward. I saw Courtney walk in and in her hands she carried scrap books. I guess she's going to explain everything to her, but nothing will change her feelings towards me. 

"Um, what are those?" she asked Courtney.

"I stayed up all night to make these for you to try and help you remember," she said out of breath. She had huge bags under her eyes, and her whole posture just looked exhausting. Her voice was raspy. 

"Nothing is going to change my memory Courtney, but thanks for trying," she said plainly. 

"Look I'm trying to help you. I don't know why you're acting like this. Don't you want things to go back to normal?" she asked throwing the books onto the small couch. 

"Maybe this was supposed to happen? Did you ever think of that? Everything happens for a reason, and maybe my life wasn't turning out the way its supposed to. Its like I have a second chance, a do over," she said quickly.

"I wasted my entire night making you these scrapbooks. Danielle this is the life you were meant to live in. It was all Nash's fault, and I have proof of it," she said.

"Alright well, I'm gonna go home and take a shower and eat. I'll be back soon. I love you," I said. The words fell out of my mouth, I'm scared of what she'll say or think.

"Bye," she said waving at me. There was no smile on her face, nothing. It was like I was talking to a plain white wall. Its like she isn't trying to get her life back.

Courtney's POV

"Danielle what the hell is your problem?" I asked.

"Nothing, I'm just tired of everyone trying to tell me what happened. Everyone's stories are different and I don't know what to believe," she said holding her head.

"That's why I made you these scrapbooks, because I knew that you would believe the pictures," I said as I put them on to her lap. The first page she opened to was the day we went to Magcon.

"Wow, I look so happy. What is this Magcon thing?" she asked confused.

"Its a group of guys from vine that travel around the country to meet their fans. Nash, Taylor, and Cameron stopped going to them so that they could be with us," I stated.

"He was right," she said as she brushed her finger over the picture that was taken of her and Cameron. When they first met.

"Well here's what happened, since you couldn't stop talking about it! You were walking to go meet him, a bunch of nerves and you were just talking to him like he was a normal person. He thought that you were different, he even told you you were. Then you took a picture with him and met up with Sara and I. When we went to take a picture of the three of us you realized you lost your MAC lipstick," I said, I needed to catch my breath.

"No not my brand new MAC lip gloss! I can't live without that!" she gasped.

"Yes it was! He found it, and when he called you up to the stage to get it, he was flirting with you. Then we kept meeting up with them unexpectedly. He kissed you on the top of the ferris wheel, then he asked you out later," I said.

"That's so romantic!" she squeeled as she looked through the pictures. 

"You were crowned Miss Starbound at national's too," I said with a smile. As she glanced at the picture with her crown and sash.

"My life was really perfect wasn't it?" she asked with a smile.

"Well no not really, if you notice Sara wasn't in many of those pictures towards the end," I pointed out. 

"Yeah why?" she asked confused. 

"I don't think you're going to believe me when I tell you this, but here it goes. One day when you took Sara, Nash, and Cameron to go sight seeing. Cameron and Sara went to go get movies and snacks and you were left alone with Nash. You forgot your clothes in your suitcase, and when you walked out in just a towel, he raped you. After that he continued to rape you and kidnap you numerous times. Then Sara was getting extremely pissed off, she tried to steal Cameron and she kissed him right in front of you. Of course we kicked her ass many times. Then, she tried to become you and kill you because Nash has this crazy obsession with you and Cameron just loves you. We stopped talking to her after that," I said quickly.

"I'm sure that didn't happen," she said rolling her eyes.

"Danielle, I'm telling you the truth," I said.

"No you're just saying that because you want me to be with Cameron," she said as she folded her arms. 

"Fine don't believe me, but don't say I never warned you," I said as I picked up the scrapbooks and walked out of the room leaving her alone.
