"How did this happen to me?" I mumbled softly to myself. My throat hurts like hell and I feel a little bit lightheaded.

I'm in a small, dark prison cell. There is a small bed in one corner with a toilet in the other. There are no windows, my only view being the empty cell across from my own that I can see though the prison bars on my door.

I began to get lost in my own fogged up thoughts. How did I get here? I'm an innocent 18 year old, wait, am I 18? I never got into trouble in school, I've never broken the law.. at least I think I haven't.

I took a seat on the uncomfortable bed as I fell deeper into my mind. "Why am I here? What have I done?" I continue mumbling to myself as I notice a prison guard standing outside my cell holding a small pile of documents in his hands.

"Ahh.. you must be.. Holly, right? Holly.. Jones?" he asked as he flicked through his documents.

The truth is, I have no idea what my name is. I can't remember anything. I stare at the tall bald man blankly for what feels like forever until he speaks up.

"Hello..? Miss Jones, are you there?" he asked innocently. I still haven't got the slightest idea to what my name is, but this man must be right. After all, he has my documents, right?

To be honest, this may be the only way to get out of here. I know I should tell the truth, but I can't. After all, this may be my only chance.

"Yeah.. I'm Holly Jones" I say to him, still feeling confused and unsure.

"Okay then. Come with me, there's someone here to see you, Miss Jones" he said as he unlocked the cell door and ushered me down the hall and into what looked like a waiting room.

The waiting room looked very worn out. There's a few old dirty looking chairs against the window and a desk in the corner that looks like a reception desk. In the middle of the room, there was a young man that seemed to look oddly familiar to me. He was very tall, he had golden blonde hair and a lip piercing. He was dressed in all black and was the most adorable man I'd ever seen.

"Holly! It's you! I tried to get here as quick as I could. Are you okay?" he said as he hugged me tightly.

I stood there, shocked. Sure, I mean, he looks a little familiar but I was not expecting this. "Wh-who are you?" I quietly stuttered to the tall boy.

"Babe, it's Luke.. don't you remember me? Don't you remember what happened?" he said quietly. He looked and sounded as if he was close to breaking down in tears.

"N-no.." I replied just as quietly. "I d-don't."
