We met Chubs inside the house, and he told me to meet Ruby upstairs. I climbed them slowly and my hand tensed by my side, my fist clenched so hard my knuckles had turned white. At the top of the stairs, there were three rooms, so I guessed the one in the middle and found Ruby sitting cross-legged on the bed by the window. As I joined her, I realised I was still covered in mud from sitting outside with Liam.

"Don't worry about it, today's laundry day anyway," she smiled at me and moved over to give me more room on the bed next to her. "So I'm going to warn you I've never done this before. I've only ever recovered the memories that I've erased myself, nothing like this."

"You're not exactly filling me with confidence, but I'm willing to try anything at this point." I watched her reach over and take my hand.

And I watched my life unfold before my eyes.



A/N - sorry this chapter is so short! There's been a couple of glitches with seven, and I was planning on publishing them both together. Somehow, that doesn't seem to be happening...
