Caspar's POV
Zoe and Louise came out of Joe's room, they looked..okay?
'How-how is he?' I asked, trying not to sound frantic.
'He's okay, I didn't asked if he remembered about you two, I thought it would be best if you did?' Zoe suggested, rubbing my back soothingly.
'Right. Thanks. Who's going in next?' I wondered out loud.
'We think you should Caspar if you're up to it.' Louise suggested.
'Right, thanks. Of course..' I trailed off, silently praying Joe remembered.
'Are you okay going in on your own?' Dan asked, looking concerned.
'Erm..yeah, of course.' I said uncertain, and they must have noticed because Dan piped up again.
'I don't mind going in with you but if you want time alone it's fine.' He offered.
'Thanks Dan, I think it'd be best if I went in by myself, what's the worst that could happen?' I smiled slightly, I shouldn't be nervous. He'll be fine.
I pushed the door open, and saw his face. And god, it made me happy.
So happy to see him again, when he said my name and then..went unconscious, I believed he'd gone.
But here he was.
'Hey.' I said casually as the door shut behind me.
'Casp.' Joe smiled widely.
'You remember?' I asked, taking a seat next to his bed.
'Of course I remember you Caspar. How could I forget my best friend!' Joe exclaimed, still smiling.
My heart dropped.
'B-best friend?' I asked stuttering.
'Yeah, you're my best friend Casp. Unless something happened that I don't know about?' He laughed.
'Erm yeah..I mean you're my best friend too but..I thought you'd remember.' I said softly, didn't want him to think I was annoyed.
'Remember what?' He asked confused.
'Do you remember when we all got together for something important?' I asked carefully, I didn't want to say it outright just yet.
'Ermmm yeah I think...wasn't that Dan's coming out party?' The look on his face you could tell he was really trying, but he sort of knew he wasn't right.
'Er no, Dan isn't gay? I don't think he is anyway. Do you know who's coming out party it was?' I asked, I put my hand on his, holding his hand once again made me smile.
He was really trying, really trying. 'I-I don't know.' He finally said, he seemed frustrated with himself.
'Joe, Joe it's okay.' I comforted, I felt awful.
'Who's was it then?' He asked, looking intrigued.
'Oh..erm.' I said.
'What? Who's was it Casp?' He asked again.
'It was yours.' I said carefully.
'What do you mean it was mine?' Joe asked, panic filling his eyes.
'Joe, we know your gay.'
'But, no. But..I would've remembered. Caspar please, I want to remember. I want to know what happened and..' Joe pleaded, choking on his words as he bit back tears.
'Its okay it is Joe, I promise. I can tell you what happened yeah? I can tell you and maybe you'll remember.' I told him, trying to calm him. I couldn't watch him cry, I couldn't.
