Becca's P.O.V
"Oh my goddess! Damon Salvatore's so hot!!!" Stacy squeals, excitedly. I roll my eyes. Stacy and her Vampire diaries obsession.
My phone rings, urgently. "Sorry, Stacy. I got to take this call." I apologise as I press my phone to my ear.
"Hey, Rebecca? It's Noah's mom. Noah's . . . He's hospitalised." Noah's mom sobs.
My bag drops to the ground. "Oh my god, which hospital?" I asked, picking up my bag.
"St. James's Hospital." she stammers. Good, it's right next to the mall.
Stacy looks at me with concern. "Noahishospitalised. I gotta go!!" I chattered, exiting the mall in a rush. Stacy doesn't ask any further. She lets me go. "Text me, later!" Stacy calls. Honestly, Best friend ever!
"Thanks!" I call behind my shoulder.
I cross the road and open the hospital doors. I dash to the counter.
"Noah Jackson?" I answer when the assistant at the counter.
"Becca?" I hear. I turn around. Noah's mom is here.
I wrap my arms around Noah's mom.
"Thank god, you're here. My husband was on his way. I felt so lonely, you know?" she sobs.
I pat her shoulder, awkwardly. "It's okay. Noah will be fine." I comfort her, my voice cracks at the word, fine.
"Mrs. Jackson? Your son's awake. Would you like to see him?" asks a nurse. I look at her. Clearly, she is not in good state to answer.
"Yes, please." I answer for her.
We follow the nurse into room 354. Noah looks pale, but is awake. "Hey, Mom." he says. He gives me a wink. I feel relieved.
"Are you all right??" She asks. He smiles.
"Yeah, I'm fine. Since you brought this pretty girl over. What's your name?" He asks. Noah's mom looks at me in alarm.

Surely he's kidding, right?
The doctor comes in, his face relaxed in an easy smile. "Can I speak you two, outside, please?" he asks, politely. We step outside the room.
"So, he is doing really well and he will be out of this hospital in no time. However, he does not remember any events that has happened recently." He says. Holy moly! How recent?
"Um, Dr.? How recent?" I ask.
"Approximately 3 months." he replies, expressionlessly.
I dash inside. Noah's mom follows me. "It can't be!" she exclaims, just as shocked as I was. I nodded. My mouth has gone completely dry.
"Hi? Do you know me?" I ask. My heart shatters into pieces as he shakes his head and says "Nope."
"We were stranded together, right?" I ask, desperately.
"Is that a movie?" He answers, completely confused. He really doesn't remember. I feel tears filling my eyes.
"Becca, honey- Noah's mom starts to say.
" I can't stay here. I'm sorry." I say as I burst into tears. I run out of the room. I keep running. He doesn't remember me. He doesn't remember anything. He doesn't love me.
My world was collapsing, everything we shared, we had was gone. He would never remember that he loved me, who I am.
My heart feel like it was yanked out of my chest and cut into tiny million pieces. For a second, I had wished that, I had never ever fallen in love with Noah Jackson.
