Chapter Three

Rosie

“Rosie? Please wake up?” Mia’s voice echoed quietly in my ear as she shook my shoulder lightly. I let my eyes slowly flutter open, letting them adapt to the bright lights that hanged above me.

“You’re awake, good.” Mia breathed a sigh of relief. I turned my head and noticed, Amelia was standing beside her. Both their expressions were unreadable, but then again, I was never good at reading expressions.

“What’s wrong?” I asked as I could feel panic set in. Mia looked up from the palms of her hand, a worried expression on her face. It looked like she was about to cry but she kept herself strong. I searched her face for answers but got none. Mia looked up at, Amelia giving her a weak nod before returning her face in her palms.

“Rosie, you where in a car crash,” Amelia explained leaving me nothing but speechless. Car crash? I opened my mouth ready to say something back but no words came out ; my mouth was completely dry as a desert.

“You forgot the last 2 years of your life,” Amelia carried on. Just then my heart skipped a beat. A pound, pounded on my the side of my head. And for the first time my world did actually freeze as in the movies.

“I’m so sorry,” Mia quietly whimpered as she lay her hand on mine, slowly bring her head down as if she was breaking down. That moment I was waiting for, Ashton Kutcher to jump out behind the bathroom door and scream ‘You’ve been punk’d!’ or for Mia and Amelia to burst into laughter yelling, ‘You should have seen your face! It was priceless!’. But they didn’t. Instead their faces stayed serious and the room grew silent only the clock ticking and the heart beat monitor daring to make sounds.

“What?” I finally stuttered realizing everything. The last two years where everything but blank for me. I forgot everything that happened between those 24 months. Everything. But if it was 2 years further that meant I was 17 or just turned 18.

“Honestly, Rosie. It’s a miracle that you’re still alive,” Amelia said over the quiet silence that fell upon us. I could hear the positiveness and hope she tried to put in her voice but I knew she didn’t care. She had hundred of patients having the same problem as I was having now but the effort of doing it was nice I suppose.

“How old am I?” I asked in a demand, tearing my gaze away from them.

“You’re 17 but you are turning 18 in a few weeks. You already finished school 2 months ago,” Mia answered and even not by looking at her I could feel her tears dripping down her face.

“That means,” I trailed off, calculating numbers in my head. “You’re 20,” I gasped as I looked at Mia, and I was right, who was in tears. Mia nodded, breaking down in tears again, burying her face in her hands while Amelia rubbed her back. I pushed all my emotions aside and tried to get everything through my mind.

“Mia, don’t cry,” I begged as I gently nudged her elbow. I couldn’t help but shed a tear, seeing her in her heart-breaking state. “I’m still here, yeh know.” Mia laughed quietly through her sobs as she wiped away the tears, smudging her mascara across her face. But she didn’t care about that right now. All she cared about was me. I smiled as I hugged her, patting my hand on a space beside me on the bed. Mia smiled and climbed on, snuggling in my side.

“I’ll be back later,” Amelia smiled as she left the room. Mia looked at me and smiled as she gained her focus back at the TV.

--- Harry’s POV ---

I was playing some game I downloaded weeks ago, in the waiting room. Liam and Louis had brought Niall to the cafeteria, leaving me with Zayn who was furiously texting someone on his iphone. The elevator, a few meters away from me ‘dinged’ making my eyes dart towards the door. The doors slid open and out walked, Mia. She looked unreadable but a bit better than last time I saw her. I wonder if she knew? Or did, Rosie just sleep not saying anything. Mia turned around as if she was searching for someone and as soon as her eyes locked with mine, she walked over to me. I did the same, mirroring her actions until we met each other halfway.

“How was it?” I asked her and a smile tugged on her lips.

“Okay, I guess. The doctor told me she forgot her memory. You knew it, didn’t you?” Mia quietly whimpered as she held a firm grip on her bag strap. My head fell to the floor in shame, forcing my head to nod.

“I did. I didn’t want to tell you here. I wanted you to find out,” I explained in a quiet mumble but audio able enough for, Mia to hear.

“I’m so sorry, Harry,” Mia cried pulling me into a hug. “She’ll remember in time.” I didn’t say anything. My eyes remained on the squeaky clean hospital floor. It was as if a cat had my tongue, no words left my mouth. My girlfriend forgot me and the chance she’ll remember me again was small. I wasn’t ready to face it.

“Why don’t you visit her?” Mia suggested as she let go, still holding my shoulders. I nodded and without another word I left for the elevators. I slowly stepped in and pressed floor 3. A man rushed in, apologizing and pressing floor 5.

“I’m so excited!” he gushed extremely over-excited. “My wife is going to give birth any minute!” I smiled at him maybe a bit to forced.

“Congratulations.” Before he could say anything else, the door slid open making it’s ‘ding’ and I slowly walked out. I strolled down the hallway.

247, 248, 249.

I was getting closer and closer. The minute I stepped into that room, I had to accept the fact she forgot about me and we had to start over.

282, 283, 284.

I stopped walking, involuntary. I wiped my hands over my face and into my hair. Was I ready for this? I took a few more steps and I stood in front of the door.

314.

I slowly reached for the door handle and took a deep breath.

Hiii! :) So this story is going in a slow pace but that’s just in the beginning. Because she woke up forgetting her last 2 years, I doubt that she’ll just say ‘Oh well’ ;) I know, Harry isn’t in it much and the other boys at this moment but TRUST me they will be :) So yeaahh. Thanks for reading :) <3
