My mouth hung open. "no, no, no." I almost cried.
"Who are you!?" Skylar almost screamed.
"baby it's me! It's me Ross!" I bent down trying to grab her hand. She ripped it away from me frightened. "no baby please!" Tears fell from my eyes as I begged her not to be afraid, to remember me. Her eyes softened as she looked at me confused yet... she still had that sparkle...
"Ross." She moved back to her original space in her bed.
"yes!" I yipped. For a moment I had thought she had remembered me.
"who... who are you?" she said more calmly than before.
"I-I'm Ross... Your boyfriend. Baby you have to remember, please remember me!" I begged again as I rested my head against the bed and began to sob.
Skylar's P.O.V.
When I opened my eyes I couldn't figure out where I was, or how I got here. I looked around the dark room before seeing a figure beside me. I glanced up finding a man standing beside me. He had long, shaggy blonde hair and hazel eyes. He looked as if he was ready to cry. I jumped back and gasped. A picture formed in my head of him. He was bloody, cold. He looked dead. He didn't look like this now, but I was still terrified. His jaw dropped as he repeated the word no.
"No, no, no!" I could see the pain flash within his eyes.
"Who are you!?" I almost screamed.
"baby it's me! It's me Ross!" He bent down trying to grab my hand. I ripped it away from him frightened. "no baby please!" Tears began to fall from his beautiful hazel eyes. I looked at him confused, but I could feel there was something between Ross and I.
"Ross." I moved back to my original place in the bed.
"yes!"he yipped. I stopped to think for a moment.
"who... who are you?" I asked more calmly than before.
"I-I'm Ross... Your boyfriend. Baby you have to remember, please remember me!" he begged again as his head dropped and rested against the bed and began to sob. I felt terrible. I didn't remember my own boyfriend... what's wrong with me.
"I-I'm sorry Ross." I said brushing my hand over his hair. His head tilted up looking me in the eyes. His cheeks were wet with tears as more tears replaced the old ones. He seemed heartbroken. "I'm sorry Ross but I don't remember you. I mean... I feel something between us but... but I don't know what. What's going on with me!?" I began sobbing with him. I was afraid, but not of him. I was afraid of what was happening to me.
"hey, hey baby don't cry. It's going to be alright. You will remember soon, I don't know when. You have brain damage. but it's not permanent. You will remember me. I know you will." He told me. I had a headache... What happened to me that caused me brain damage? I squeezed my eyes shut trying to remember. Blurred images of a woman with blonde hair stabbing a needle in my arm passed through my head. I bit my lip trying to concentrate on it. I remember turning away from her and trying to run. I was hit in the back of the head with something... I don't remember with what but it was awfully hard. Pictures of me running through the woods and collapsing by mine and my fathers spot formed in my head and suddenly...
I remembered.
"I-I was drugged... I was hit with something. I remember running away to go to my fathers spot. But I- I... I'm trying to remember what happened after that... how- how did I get here?" I asked Ross hoping he would know the answer.
"yes... yes!" Ross slightly smiled. He was so adorable. "You were gone all day and no one could find you. I... I had found a picture of you and your father and saw you're surroundings. On the back of the picture it told me where it was... So I quickly drove down to the park and ran to yours and your fathers spot. I searched everywhere for you but still couldn't find you. I had almost left when I saw you laying behind a log. The I carried you back to the car and brought you home. But mom said we had to bring you here." he held my hand tightly while he explained it to me. I nodded remembering waking up in front of a group of people. I remembered a tall blonde standing behind me slightly smiling. I had said his name but it wasn't clear to me now.
"what was- what was his..." I stopped trying so hard to remember his name. "Riker!" I remembered it.
"what about him?" Ross looked confused.
"who-who is he?" I rubbed the side of my head.
"my brother. He came here with us." Ross told me. I shook my head trying to rid of the pain that was growing by my temple. "what's wrong baby?" Ross asked.
"my head just hurts." I sighed.
"you should rest babe. I'll be here. I won't ever leave your side. I know you still don't... remember me... But please... please try." he begged again.
"of course. I'm really sorry I don't... ow my head..." I groaned.
"don't be baby. it's not your fault. go to sleep I will still be here when you wake up." I nodded. Ross stood up and bent down. He pressed his lips to my forehead and looked in my eyes. "I Love you."
I didn't say back. I was still so confused. So I just closed my eyes and faded into my dreams.

"Hey guys, did you leave your phones in here too?" I asked.
"yeah, we figured the guys would call us so we turned them off and left them here. Why did Ross call you?" Delly laughed.
"Yes like seven times and texted." I chuckled.
"gosh he is so protective of you." Julie giggled.
"I know." I slightly smiled.
After a while of driving and jamming out to the fray we pulled into the drive way. Once I was on my feet, arms wrapped around me protectively. The sweet smell of his skin instantly hit me, I looked up into his hazel eyes and smiled.
"you had me so worried. All of you did." Ross sighs and locks eyes with me.
"Sorry we left our phones in the car." I chuckled and gently kissed the tip of his nose. As I moved out of his arms, he pulled me back in.
"no, no tease. If you're gonna kiss me, you got to do it right." he smiled and pressed his lips to mine.

I opened my eyes seeing a light filled room and... Ross. He was sitting in the chair beside me sleeping. The dream I had just had was real. I remember it. Delly was short for Rydel, Rydel was Ross' older sister. Julie was their cousin. I had remembered that day, I had remembered begin with Ross in that cute, silly way. I had remembered how fun it was. I also remember how Rocky, Ross' older brother ruined our joking and silly fun. I remembered how Rocky punched Ross in the eye. I remember how we drove back to my apartment after I disagreed for him to drive. I also remembered that terrible nightmare I had that night.
I sat up in the... the hospital bed. I draped my feet over the side and ripped all the cords off of me. One thing I still remembered was I hated hospitals. I stood up and swayed a bit but made it to the bathroom safely. I did what I needed then looked in the body mirror which was attached to the back of the door. I was a mess. I had a hospital gown on now... and my hair was every where. I had this bandage covering up the back of my head too. I walked out of the bathroom finding my clothes on the chair in the corner. I quickly grabbed them and then went back into the bathroom to take a shower and freshen up.
I only remembered Ross a bit but by the time I had gotten out of the shower I had played at least five scenes from my past with Ross. But I was still a bit shaky on weather I really loved him or not. I know I did... I know I do... but I can't love someone who I can't seem to quite remember... can I?
