Shattered

There comes a time where life really does truly feel like it's punching you in the face.

You're scaling a mountainside. You're saving up for a new car. You're studying hard for exams.

Life seems great. The hope that you feel is so, so SO addicting. For the longest time - you feel happy and hopeful. The light at the end of the tunnel is approaching rapidly and you're sprinting to get to it. The wind is in your hair, your vision's blurry from the tears of happiness, and you feel free. Ecstatic.

Until it turns out the light at the end of the tunnel's in reality an approaching train and it hits you head on.

The safety harness snaps and you plummet a hundred meters to your death. Your house gets robbed and all your money's gone. It turns out you studied for the wrong exam.

All that. At the exact same time

Is how I was feeling right now.

I felt the world spin as I tried to let the facts sink in.

"...You don't remember me?" I managed to splutter. He just blinked, not reacting to my presence.

'What, do you know me?'

"I'm (Y/N)! Stop joking around! This isn't funny!"

'Listen, Sweetheart, I don't know who you are, I'm not joking.' His voice went down an octave than his usual one. His face was serious, with a layer of confusion hidden underneath it all. 'Do you know me? What's my name then?'

I was just about to respond when we hear loud voices echo down the hall.

"OH FOR THE LAST FUCKING TIME, PI, THERE'S NOTHING. GOING. ON. BETWEEN ME AND TRIST!

'THEN WHY WAS HE IN YOUR BED?'

"I GOT NIGHTMARES! Y'KNOW? FROM WHEN BLIXER MURDERED ME? SHEESH, DO YOU NOT?"

'OH SURE, YEAH, THAT'S TOTALLY BELIEVABLE, YOU JUST HAPPENED TO HAVE A NIGHTMARE AND HE JUST HAPPENED TO HAPPILY AGREE TO SPEND THE NIGHT "SLEEPING" AND "COMFORTING" YOU, STOP LYING TETRA, I'VE SEEN THE WAY HE LOOKS AT YOU, HE'S LOVESTRUCK-'

"FOR FUCKS SAKE PI, SHUT UP!"

'TETRA, TELL ME, HE'S A GUY, YOU'RE NOT ANYTHING, HOW AND WHERE DID HE MANAGE TO PUT HIS-'

"I DON'T WANNA HEAR IT! WHAT THE- WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"

'CHECKING FOR HICKIES! AND- AHA! I FOUND ONE!'

"THAT WAS WHEN YOU SHOT ME WITH A NERF GUN YESTERDAY YOU DIMWIT!"

'Oh yeah I remember that.'

"AND DID YOU SERIOUSLY THINK I WAS HIDING HICKIES UNDER HERE?"

'WELL I DON'T KNOW, THAT MIGHT BE THE WHOLE REASON WHY TRIST GAVE YOU THIS SCARF IN THE FIRST PLACE!'

"HE WAS FUCKING ELEVEN!"

'OH SO HE KNEW WHAT HE WANTED FROM A YOUNG AGE! MMM, TETRA YOU'VE GOT A BIG STORM COMING- Oh. Hey (Y/N).'

I waved awkwardly to Pi and Tetra in the doorway. Tetra's face was flushed a bright red while Pi was laughing his ass off. His hair was tied up into a bun.

"Remind me to kill this guy later on..." Tetra muttered under their breath.

'Hey, so (Y/N), we heard from Skye and came as soon as possible - apparently he has amnesia?' Pi chirped, completely ignoring Tetra.

"...Unfortunately..." Please tell me this is all just a dream. Please tell me that I'm going to wake up and it turns out that Fresh still remembers me. Neither of the two knew what to say.
