Katherine's POV

"He's just a waste of time Kat! Don't waste 2 years of your life chasing after something that will never be the same again!" Wait, why did Hayley text me this? What's going on? I don't get it! I said to the nurse. She replayed with a sigh and then she tried to explain something that I never thought would have to be explained. She said "Katherine can you remember what happened a month ago?" I replayed with a angry but sad tone in my voice "no I can't remember anything" That was the moment that changed my whole life, maybe even the way I look at things. She began with " a month and 6 days ago you were in a accident with your mother Ann, your father Darian and your brother Marcus." As the story moved on I couldn't believe what I was hearing. At the end of the story, the nurse looked into my eyes and told me my parents had died. I didn't know what to say at that point. All I wanted to know was where my brother was. But I never asked. When the nurse left the room, 5 firmiliar faces walked through the sliding glass door. They crowded around me and started asking me questions. I could only answer ones like "are you ok?" Or maybe "do you remember me?" I felt useless and helpless. Once these 5 people left, the nurse wanted me to get some rest.

2 weeks later

Alright Katherine you are good and ready to go home to your auntie.

I was really sick after leaving the hospital, it felt almost as I was on a rocking boat. But I made it home to my aunties. She was really happy to see me, but when I got home those 5 people that where in the room with me were standing right in front of me. I walked in the door and when tip to my room to see my pet fish dory, when I see a decorated box full of tissue paper caught my eye. On the box it read Katherine stine and the place it was sent from was the UK. I opened it and it had a card that said "to my baby girl". I thought to myself "who could this be?". Until I opened the card. It said "hey baby, it's been a year and 11 months since I asked you out ontop of the Empire State Building and you agreed to have a LDR with me. I know you're still sleeping and I miss you so much. Don't give up my kitty cat >•.•<. I closed the card and continued to un wrap what was in the box. I found a silver locket with 9-20-12 in graved on it I opened the locket to find, a handsome boy with light brown, messy hair and heart melting green eyes and a smile that could light up a room. On the left side it said never give up kitty. I unhooked the clasp and put it around my neck. I pick up another idem from the box, it was full of pictures of me and that boy in New York City. At this point I was determined to find who this boy was. I close the box as I hear the door open. It was my auntie carol, she told me to come down stairs because there's a surprise. So I walked down the stairs to see the handsome boy from my locket standing infront of me. He was shorter than I expected but I thought he was pretty hot. He yelled out "hey baby! I missed you!" He lifts me up and gives me a big kiss on my cheek. I pardon myself and say "I'm sorry, I don't recall who you are would you mind explaining?". The boy slowly puts me down with a depressing expressing look on his face. "I knew this would happen" he mumbled. He told me his name was Ashton and he's 20. We met in NYC and we've been inseprateable since and that was almost 2 years ago. He said we were in a LDR because he was on tour with his band 5 seconds of summer. "That's crazy" I said "how am I dating a famous singer from a boy band! No this can't be true" I said as my phone rang. I take it out of my pocket to see I have 102 texts from calum, Luke, Michael and my boyfriend Ashton. I start scrolling though mine and Ashton's convos from 2 months ago before the accident. I look up and in fact he wasn't lying. I thought to myself, what! No! Not me! I'm not dating a world famous boy! Why would he even pick me?.
