Chapter Four: My amnesia boy
"People say that together we we're both sides of the same coin and we would shine like Venus in a clear night sky. We thought our love could overcome the circumstances but my ambition won't allow for compromise. I could see in the distance all the dreams that were clear to me. Every choice that I had to make left you on your own, somehow our road we started down had split asunder, too late to realize how far apart we've grown. How I wish I, wish I've done a little bit more. Now, shoulda, woulda coulda means I'm out of time. Coz shoulda woulda, coulda can't change your mind. And I wonder, wonder what I'm gonna do. Shoulda, woulda, coulda are the last words of a fool..." Shoulda, Woulda, Coulda by Beverly Knight

How far are you willing to go for someone you love? How many odds are you willing to defy just to get that chance again? Will you be willing to hit rock bottom? Will you jump out of plane without a parachute? Will you pretend to have amnesia so that you can start with a somewhat clean slate? Would you risk the tiny hold you have on that special person in hopes to have full grasp again? Desperate times calls for drastic measures but does it make it right?

Present time:
"Jackson?" April said.
Jackson tore his eyes away from the ring and met April's gaze; "That's what I'm actually going to ask you" he said. He lifted the ring up, a confused look marring his face; "Are we married or something? Because this ring looks like a wedding band to me"
April's breath caught inside her throat as panic enveloped her body; she felt her knees buckle so she grabbed the nearest thing to her, which turns out to be the footboard. "W-what year are we in?"
Jackson furrowed his brows; "2014, why?"
April shifted closer to the bed and sat down; she placed her shaking hands on her lap, a perplexed look crossing her face. "W-what do you remember about us?"
"Us?"
April nodded; "Yeah, about us"
"We're best of friends" Jackson replied. His eyes then widen; "I didn't screw up right? I didn't fuck up our friendship?"
"Oh you did" April thought. She then shook her head to clear her thoughts; "That's all you remember? Seriously?" she asked.
Jackson nodded; "Yeah" he replied. He then wiggled his finger, emphasizing the ring again; "But I really don't understand why I have this, I'm confused - help me here Apes" he pleaded.
April buried her face into her palms and groaned loudly; "This can't be happening" she mumbled.
"This is really a bad idea, screw you Mark Sloan!" Jackson thought as he saw how panicked his wife looked.

"Don't forget to pick Zola up from dance class, I have a scheduled surgery so I can't be there on time" Meredith said.
Derek placed his hands on his wife's shoulder; "Don't worry about it, I won't forget" he said.
Meredith glared; "Make sure you remember, I don't want last time happening again."
Derek leaned forward and pecked Meredith on the lips; "It won't happen and again, I apologize" he said sincerely.
Meredith's gaze softened; "I forgive you"
Derek cracked a smile; "Thank you."
"Dr. Shepherd?"
Derek turned around and saw one of his resident's standing a couple of feet from him; "Yes, Brooks?"
