They found her right away... she saw Leon but she had no clue who he was. That hurt him more than anything... And it was his fault.... He had caused these feelings to make Y/n think that he didn't want her around. He promised... And yet he broke that promise... 

Once she was released to go home, he offered to drive her, she knows who he is... Just not how close they were... But it still hurt, no matter how much he tried to hide it... She could tell but never said a word. She couldn't quite grasp onto why she liked this man named Leon. It said in the journals that he was funny, caring, confident, cocky, wee bit arrogant... But the man now seemed to have fallen under the darkness that she was put under for so long. 

She would see him, the circles under his eyes getting darker with each passing day... The smell of alcohol got stronger... the pain he had- she could see it all... It was consuming him. 

Then he started to not show up... Always in his room... Crying and sobbing... She felt the pain and agony he was feeling... she knew she was starting to fall for him. She couldn't help it, every little thing about him drew her in... He was kind... gentle... Loving... She couldn't remember what he did to her to make her jump... But she couldn't see how he would have hurt her... Unless it was him just trying to recover from a mistake... 

But she knew in her heart that she wanted to help him. Save him from the darkness that was tearing him apart, killing him slowly. She decided to dig up her past, looking at old photos, she noticed that she always watched Leon within the photos, he never noticed. The smile she could tell was fake. That she was hiding something from with the photos... She looked at another one- long sleeves hiding her arms... However there were spots of blood... 

She checked her arm to see the same arm was scarred... Each blade of the razor sharp enough to draw blood but not as much. She was cutting herself but she couldn't figure out why. So she decided to head to Leon's. As she drove to his house she could see a little restaurant- everything blurred and she was there... By the window... Watching Leon and the unfamiliar girl. 

The vision fades as her attention whips back to the road. Her breathing more rapid then before. She was starting to remember... She had to keep going. She looked to the right, passing over a bridge and she saw herself jump. She realizes where she is... This is where it all happened... But the question still remained... Why? 

Why did she cut?

Why did she jump? 

But most importantly... 

Why did it affect Leon so much? 

Hoping she can find out before Leon wastes his life away is her main goal. She races to his house, jumping out of the car and up the stairs. Racing to his apartment she finally reached her destination. She slowly opened the door, the place was mildly clean. She saw a red and black notebook on the kitchen counter. She opened it to the first page to see her name written in it. 

Each page she read... it brought back everything she had forgotten. The pain... The... everything... She sees now why Leon had been hurt... He had read her journal...  He had seen why she did this to herself... And he blamed himself... For every last bit of it... The pages were freshly stained with tears, that would not have been hers. 

They were his. 

She could feel his gaze on her, so she turned to look at him. Her love for him even stronger now that she remembers the little things... 

"Y/n? What are you doing here?" His confusion had her run to him and hug him tightly. 

Fresh tears of her own rolling into his bare chest. 

"Y/n? Y/n... hey it's okay, what's wrong sweetheart?" Those words. 

Sweetheart

"I forgot you... But I remember it now and I'm-" 

"Sorry. Don't be.... I should be-" 

"Sorry but you shouldn't. I love you Leon." 

"I love you most my dear sweetheart."
