For the rest of my life

Chaper 10

I stared into his eyes, yet I saw nothing but the unknown. Who did this random guy think he was? He just sat there after I told him I didn't know who he was and cried. His head was in his hands, his whole body was shaking and tears kept escaping from his eyes. Eventually, he stopped crying and looked at me again.

"Look," I said," I don't know who you are, so can you please leave."

His face twisted into pain, and he placed his hand gently on my face, which I slapped away immediatley with an infuriated sound, which somehow just prompted more tears from him.

"I love you, Liv. " He whispered before quietly leaving the room and closing the door softly behind him. Thank god he was gone.  What on earth was he talking about, saying he's my boyfriend? I don't have a boyfriend? Goodness me, some people these days. Of course, it only took 30 seconds for another person, a woman this time, to come bursting in with tears streaking her face. She was crying so loudly I winced when she pulled me into am enormous embrace.  Obviously, this woman was a stranger so I just pushed her away like that boy.

"Liv?" She sobbed. "Don't you know who I am?" She was clearly in pain, and I couldn't understand why all these people kept coming and asking me if I knew who they were.

"I'm really sorry lady but I think you have come to the wrong room." I said to her, only bringing on more tears. She didn't say anything, but got up and walked over to the corner of the room. Taking her phone out and dialing a number, she brought it to her ear.

"Peter?"

"Yes I know I said I wouldn't call you anymore, but it's an emergency, it's Liv." She sniffled quietly, was she talking about me, and who was she talking to?

"Well, when I got your letter, I told her you had left us for that skank....sorry, but she ran upstairs and passed out...she fell down them" she sobbed, "and now she has got some kind of stupid damage to her head and she doesn't know who I am. For gods sake Peter she doesn't know who I am!"

"Yes I know im crying im not retarded!" She screamed down the phone.

"Look ill call you back with an update later on. Bye."

Slamming the phone down onto the table at the end of my bed, I warily said, "Can you please leave, and get the nurse, I want to see my mum."

The womans face twisted with immediate sorrow, and she slowly came to sit by my bed. "I am your mum sweetie." She whispered, tears streaking her face. "You had an accident, fell down the stairs and hit your head, now you don't remember anything!"

"How do I know you're not lying?" I said carefully.

"Hold on..."

"There, a picture of you, me and your dad...well, your ex dad." She said, presenting me with a small, wrinkled picture. Staring closely at it, the child in it did look like me. But it couldn't be, this can't be real, it's a mistake. "Who was that boy, who came in before?" I whispered.

"That's Nat baby, he's your best friend, and your boyfriend." She murmured, placing a soft hand on to my leg- it felt comforting and safe.

"I want to see him again. " I demanded.

"Do you remember him?" The woman asked, a sudden glimmer of hope in her eyes.

"No, but I want to know more." I relpied.

With a small nod, she rasied from the chair and exited the room. Moments later, that strange boy came quietly through the door, and over to me. His eyes were the most electric blue...beautiful, beautiful eyes..."Liv, can you hear me?" I suddenly heard a voice say.

"Who Is Liv?" I asked, scared of the answer.

The boy, or Nat, sat down and grabbed my hand, ignoring my protests. "You are Liv." He said surely, with a small tear escaping his eye. "You are Liv, and I'm Nat, and I love you with all my heart." He pulled me into a hug, sending my mind spinning, telling me to pull away, I didn't know this person! But in my heart, he felt familiar, those beautiful eyes, that tender hug, it felt like I had known him my whole life.
