Savannah's POV

Why was Jason here out of all the therapists in the world?

When did he even get back? Wasn't he supposed to be in Canada with his family?

Jason stood at the doorway of the house before smiling and walking inside.

He shook Cameron's hand before taking a seat next to him on the lumpy couch.

"Cameron, how are you?," he said while opening his briefcase.

As Cameron replied, I couldn't help but feel his eyes on me.

My heart pounded out of my chest as I turned to find him, bottom lip pulled in his mouth.

He licked his lips as his blue orbs glanced up and down at my body.

Feeling uncomfortable, I decided to leave the two of them alone.

"Um, Savannah?," Cameron said while cutting off his conversation with Jason.

"What is it, babe?"

His face flushed as he played with his pillow on top of his lap.

"Stay with me, please? Is that fine, Jason?"

Jason nodded, waving me over to the couch.

"C'mon, I know you want to help him get his memory back."

Hesitantly, I agreed to helping Cameron only if I wouldn't have to sit next to Jason.

As soon as I sat down next to Cameron, his fingers slipped into my hand and held on tight.

"So, the first thing we want to do when recalling memories is wanting the person who experienced it to tell you," Jason stated as he pulled out a clipboard from his briefcase.

Cameron nodded, asking whether or not he had a choice to recall what he wanted to remember.

"Of course," Jason replied delightfully. "Just remember, in the long run, you might feel lost at times."

Rolling my eyes, I couldn't believe that this was the Jason I knew months ago.

In the summer, all he did was make vulgar gestures towards me and pinch my ass a lot.

Now, he was suddenly Mr. I-know-shit-you-didn't-think-I-would-know.

Jason called out to me, breaking me away from my thoughts, my clear and safe thoughts.

"Ok, Savannah. Cameron said he would like to remember your first date," Jason said with a hint of anger in his voice.

Was he still into me?

Gosh, that would be so awkward.

My fingers crammed as I thought about that night, how great everything had gone..except for the party.

"Well, when we went on our first date, you took me to a fancy restaurant called La Villa."

A smile tugged on Cameron's lips as I told him more about it, watching him gaze upon me as if I was the only one here with him.

Once we reached the restaurant, I realized Cameron took me to a really expensive one.

"It's beautiful, Cam. How did you-"

He cupped my chin and leaned in to kiss me.

"Nice way to shut me up," I said as we pulled apart.

"Now, baby girl, this is our special night together."

As we walked inside the restaurant, the smell of pasta and garlic hit me. My stomach growled and my cheeks flushed with embarrassment.
