I Only Ever Imagined

Chapter 11 ~ Don't Think I'm Crazy

Hayes's P.O.V.

I walked out of the hospital room and went to meet up with Melanie, Matt, Melanie's mom, Madison's mom and some others that had came. I looked down, not wanting anyone to see me cry. I saw that Ally had came. I gave her a little wave and took a seat near her.

"Hey." She said, quietly. I could image how she was taking it. Knowing that there's someone you love in a life or death state.

"Hey." I said, my voice cracking a little.

"How is she?" She said, her head down.

"You haven't seen her?" I asked, looking at her.

"No, I'm to afraid to see what's behind that door." She said, shaking her head slightly.

"She's doing good from the looks of it." I said, trying to get her to calm down, "She's seems like she's going to be fine." I told her.

"Where's the rest of the boys." Ally asked.

"Matt and I came here secretly." I tell her.

"Won't Nash get mad that you're gone?" She asked, a small smile playing at her lips.

"Yea, but this is more important." I said.

"Well, good luck when Nash finds out you're gone." She said, patting my back. I chuckle, not really caring if Nash and the others find out Matt and I are missing. I'm just glad I got to see Madison, even if it's not exactily what I wanted to see, but I still got to see her. Ally gets up and walks over to Melanie. Melanie has been sitting and staring at the wall the whole time we got here. I couldn't imagine how she was taking it. I get up and walked to a seat near her. I sit down and she sighed when I did.

"Hey Hayes." She said, her voice weak.

I didn't answer and just hugged her. She quickly hugged back and silently cried on my shoulder. I tried to calm her down and it worked enough for her to stop crying.

"Hey, she gonna be alright. We have to hope for the best." I whisper.

"I know." She whispers.

I have never seen Melanie seem so small. She was always so happy and out-going whenever the boys and I were around, but now, she seems so lost.

"She's going to be fine." I whisper before letting go of Melanie. Melanie just nodded and gave me a small smile. Which I return, "Don't worry."

After that a nurse came in, "For Madison Peterson." Melanie, Alison, Matt, Madison's family, and I stood up, as well as others who I didn't know. Madison's mom went forward to talk to the nurse. No one could hear what they were talking about and it was making me nervous. Madison's mom turned around a small smile on her face, but something was still off.

"Okay, Madison is awake, but," She stopped, taking a breath, "she has amnesia and they don't know who she will remember or who she'll know. She lost some memories." When she finished, my heart dropped. I didn't want her to forget me and I know everyone else is thinking the same thing. Three people went to go and see her. I sat back down, waiting. That was until my phone stared to vibrate in my pocket. I took it out and saw 'Nash' on the top of my screen. I panicked a little, but tried to stay calm. I answer the phone and put it to my ear.

"Hayes, Why the fuck would you do that!? You know I told you not to go and what's the first thing you do is go!" Nash's voice yelled through the phone.

"Nash, calm down I'm fine. I just... I just needed to know if Madison was gonna be okay and she just woke up, but..." I trailed off.

"But what, Hayes. I know that Madison was/is in a state where you need to see her because you didn't know whether she would make it or not, but you can't just sneak off. I'm sorry..."

"Nash, Madison has amnesia and the doctor doesn't know if she'll remember me or us in that matter." I cut Nash off. The phone call was silent for a bit until Nash spoke up again.

"I...I don't know what to say. I'm sorry, Hayes. Have you seen her yet?" He asked.

"Not yet, but I'm going to soon."

"Okay, well call me and tell me what happens, okay?"

"Okay."

"I'll see you soon. The guys and I will find a flight in the morning because there's not any right now. Bye Hayes. Good luck." He said.

"See you soon, Nash." I said then ended the call. I took a deep breath preparing myself for what might happen. I closed my eyes with my head in my hands. I tried to stay calm and it work some what. Soon, I felt a hand on my shoulder, I looked up and saw Matt giving me a small smile. I took that as to go and see her now. I returned the smile, but I felt something wasn't right. I decided to leave it and go see Madison. I got up and walked to her room. The door was open slightly, but I stood there for a couple of seconds before pushing the door open silently.

When I got inside, I saw Madison lying there with her bright blue eyes looking down at her hands, but she had a small smile on her face. To most she would look like a mess, but to me she was still beautiful. I knocked on the side of the doorway.

"Come in." The voice I've been dying to hear sounded.

"Madison?" I said to be sure I wasn't dreaming.

"Yes?" I noticed a hint of confusion in her eyes when she looked at me, "Do you remember me?" I asked.

"Of course, your Hayes Grier." And that was enough to make my heart shatter. "Can I ask you a question?"

"Sure." I said, trying not to choke up.

"What are you doing here?" She asked. I looked her in the eyes, seeing confusion, excitement, happiness. "I mean not that I'm not okay with you being here. It's just...how do you know me?"

"Umm," I wanted to tell her that we met because of Melanie's sister having us over and that I'm basically her boyfriend, but I knew I couldn't. All it would do is overwhelm her, "I'll tell you later, okay?"

"Okay, who else is here?" She asked.

"Matt, but the other boys are going to be here tomorrow."

"Oh okay." She said, quietly.

We sat there in silence for a couple of minutes until there was a knock on the door. I got up and opened the door, Melanie stood there. She looked at me with sad eyes. I walked outside of Madison's room and shut the door.

"What happened?"

"She doesn't remember." I told her, looking down.

"Oh my..." She pulled me into a hug and I tried to keep myself from crying.

Something I didn't ever want to happened. Happens to the one I love the most. Wait. I love Madison.

"Melanie, if I tell you something, will you not think I'm crazy?" I asked her.

"What do you mean?"

"Melanie, I think I love Madison." I said.
