Trust (A Nash Grier Fanfiction)

Chapter 27

A Single Note

•Nash's POV•

"What are you doing?" I ask Taylor after I woke up to him saying the word 'Goodbye'.

"I'm leaving." Taylor answers.

"What?!" I yell louder than expected.

"Shut the fuck up. I don't want to wake her up, just come outside and talk."

Taylor and I walked outside of the beach house. It was still dark outside, but not as dark as it was when Skylar had woken up earlier.

"What about you leaving? What does that even mean?"

"I can't stand looking at Skylar anymore. Do you really just want to be by her when she's slowly forgetting every memory you have together?!" Taylor argues.

"You could at least stay with her while she does remember!" Nash retorts.

"No. I can't. Skylar is going to forget that first day we all met her, that we saved her from the hospital, and everything else in between, and there is so much more. She's going to forget the bond she has with all of us. Can you really deal with that?"

"Yeah, because I'll just make new memories with her. What if the doctor is wrong? What if she doesn't lose her memory? What if she can gain her memory back once lost? Huh? Have you thought of that?" My voice fills with anger. I can't believe I can't convince Taylor to stay.

"It's not very likely," Taylor mumbles.

"You never know," I say with a plain tone.

"I'm leaving. I refuse to see her again once I leave."

"What about the rest of us? What about me and the guys? What about Magcon? And the fans? Are you just never going to see any of us again?" Nash argues.

"I'll still be going on the Magcon tour, but only if Skylar isn't going to be there."

"Why do you have to he so stubborn?! The more stress you put on her, the faster she'll lose her memory!"

"I'm doing this for myself! It's something I have to do! So fuck off and leave me alone! I need to forget about her if she's going to forget about me!"

"I remember now," I hear a weak voice squeak. "If you stay around longer, I won't forget you as quickly, if I even do at all."

"How much of that did you hear Skylar?" Nash asks, looking down.

"All of it," Skylar crosses her arms and looks at her feet.

"Skylar, I can't deal with it. I hope you understand."

"But I don't! That's the thing! I don't understand why you would be so much of a conceited jerk and leave me in my most vulnerable stage! What happens if Jake comes back? You were the one who helped me and saved me through all of that!"

"It's not my problem anymore." Taylor says, as harsh as it sounds, I know he doesn't mean it. He's trying to make up one thing and holding onto it. "Just take this and let me leave." He holds out a piece of paper.

"I'll never forget you Tay." Skylar weeps, "But is this really going to be our goodbye? You can't stand looking at me long enough to give me a real goodbye?"

Just as Skylar finished saying that, Taylor comes up to her and hugs her, "I'm sorry I have to do this. I love you Sky."

"Before you leave, I have to tell you both something," Skylar look our way and we nod. "I'm not Shawn's sister. I'm not related to Shawn."
