Good Seeing You Again (You Me At Six Fan Fiction)

Chapter 13

Josh, you’re going to have to tell her.

To tell her everything.

“What do you mean? Every second counts I have with you like it did the last time? That made me lose you the first time? Don’t let me lose you a second? Josh, what are you talking about?” I could feel her shaking against my chest. Well done Josh. Best boyfriend award goes to yours truly.

“You might want to sit down babe.” I said pulling her into my bed. That sounds wrong, this isn’t the time or place to get saucy Joshua.

She burst into tears even before I said anything. Oh dear, I might need Elissa with me.

No, I have to do this on my own.

“Tell me from the start Josh, don’t leave anything behind. Even if it’s the tiniest, simple thing. Please Josh.” She begged.

“Well ummm…”

“Josh, please.”

“Right. Well, I knew you before you moved here, and so did the rest of my family. You lived here a couple of years ago when you were 15. Funnily enough, you lived in the same house but it wasn’t as big and modern as it is now… Anyway, we became really close and soon became a couple like we are currently now. It was during the summer that’s why I mentioned about we were the summer couple. Everyone thought we were going to last and grow old and die together. But I never believed them and drove you away from my feelings about the future. Your parents were packing to leave the next day to go to Spain, when you left me in the park after a massive row. You ran home and packed to go with them. I was too pissed off to go after you but I regret that massively due to what happened.” I was close to tears at the point. Who knew telling your girlfriend about your past could be so emotional when she’s completely blind to it.

“Oh my… What happened?” I was close to tears but Lucie was in tears. She wasn’t whining or anything, but tears constantly fell from her eyes and rolled down her cheeks.

“Well, all four of you, Harley was currently living with you, was travelling to the airport when you had a car accident. Everyone had bruises but you were unconscious. You were rushed into hospital and suffered memory loss, you remembered all your family and where you were going but no record of living in London, or any of the Franceschi’s or the necklace I bought you, which I see that you still wear every single day. Do you know how much that means to me, that even though you can’t remember who got you it, you still wear it? To be honest, I blamed myself because if it wasn’t for the row, you wouldn’t have lost your memory. I’m so so sorry Lucie! I had a massive breakdown after my parents told me, I cried every night, I skipped school to go to the park where we had our argument and kept thinking ‘what if?’ for around a year. Even if you don’t ever want to see me again, just never forget that I never stopped loving you and I never will.” Now that last sentence brought me to tears.

“Oh my… I’m sorry I put you through all that Josh! I still wear the necklace because I knew it had a special meaning behind it but every time I asked my parents where I got it from they always changed the subject and never told me. Why wouldn’t I want to see you again? I love you Joshua Franceschi, even after you’ve told me about my past. I’m sorry we had that row, I’m sorry I was prepared to leave you, I’m sorry I caused you to have a breakdown and skip school.” Lucie cried. I pulled her into a hug and we sat there just cuddling in silence. We both knew we loved each other then but I can safely say, we both love each other on a whole new level now.

“What happened?” Elissa came rushing through the door, whispering quite loud, even for a whisper. She soon saw the tears, the red puffy eyes and the silent affection. “You told her?” Worry washing all over her like a tsunami.

“Yeah.” Was all I managed to say along with Lucie’s head nodding to her question.

“Oh my!” Even Lis was speechless, which actually, never happens. Well, she is a Franceschi after all.

Lucie climbed out my arms and ran into Elissa’s. They were basically sisters so I didn’t mind too much.

“It’s okay gorgeous, calm down. We all kept it from you because we all knew how much it would affect you. We’re all incredibly sorry, but I suppose now everything’s out in the open, you two have no secrets. I’m always here if you ever want to have a girl’s talk.” She kissed Lucie’s forehead sweetly and held her tightly when Lucie began to cry harder but silently. Elissa was right, everything was out in the open but how would Lucie feel after she slept on it which worries me massively

She went with Elissa to get cleaned up and said she wanted to sleep with Lis for comfort. It’s understandable considering her boyfriend has just told her that he didn’t care about their relationship a couple of years ago, caused a row and made her want to travel with her parents, and she got memory loss from it. Yeah, I wouldn’t want to sleep with someone that’s just unraveled my past.

*Lucie’s P.O.V*

“Lis, can I sleep with you tonight please? I really don’t want to sleep alone, in my house or here, I don’t want to wake up crying and see hurt in Josh’s eyes nor yours, but I know Josh feels responsible and I could do with a big sister right now.” I sniffed and hugged her tightly.

“Sure sweetheart.” Returning the hug. She led me to her on-suite and cleaned me up which included stripping clean from my current tear stained make-up and a fluffy black hello kitty dressing gown. I said my thankyou’s and made my way back to Josh’s room which let her get ready for bed.

“Hello gorgeous, may I say you are incredibly beautiful without make-up as well as with make-up.” Josh whispered while pulling me into a bone crunching hug.

“Thank you. Well I thought I would come and say goodnight and thank you and I love you Josh. I fucking adore you.” I felt a tear escape.

“Goodnight sweetheart, and there’s no words to explain how much I love you.” With that, a goodnight kiss accompanied his words.

I made my way back to Elissa’s room while leaving Josh all alone. I love him. I really do love him, even after I’ve just got told he couldn’t see a future for us when we were 15, or that he drove me away, or we had a massive row which caused me to travel with my parents even though I hated it and the accident; the memory loss and never recalling ever living in London, or meeting the Franceschi’s.

Even after being told all that, I still managed to love him, well I can’t leave him now can I?
