Third person POV

The sun in the sky has finally started getting ready to rise up for the day. The sunshine piercing through the clouds, paints a picture only fit for those worthy enough to witness every early morning. There is something about mornings. There is almost a sense of new beginnings. Having a bad day the night before, doesn't warrant that the next morning will be bad too. Dawn is literally the dawn of a new day. It is giving you the very permission to make the day your own.

Some people get that luxury...and some people don't. Some people get to set their alarms for 8 am and some don't have to deal with an alarm at all. Some people don't have time to eat breakfast and some people can read the morning newspaper while slowly eating and sipping on your pipping hot cup of coffee. But no matter how the day starts, it's a new beginning. A new opportunity to experience new things and change your life.

The cool morning breeze has a new path for life everyday. Some days it travels lightly through the sky, and sometimes it gives the sky fucking whiplash. The breeze goes where it pleases because it's a new dawn, it's a new day, it's a new life. The breeze decided, on this early autum evening, to make its way to two bodies on the bench for the next bus into town. The breeze scoped every inch of the girls' bodies causing a chain reaction of shivers and goosebumps. Each girls' body seemingly getting triggered by the other girls reaction to the cold creating an ongoing cycle.

Both their faces were filled with fear and tenseness, but the presence of the other girl seemed to put a layer of tranquility over them. They almost looked peaceful. Or until one of them decide to jolt awake.

With a big gulp of air that sounded like no oxygen was entering the lung capacity, Lily's eyes shot open. Her chest was heaving up and down in a hyperventilating fashion. Her anxiety levels were rising by the second. But she soon calmed down when she looked down at Evangeline and saw her sleeping. It caused a wave of relaxation to coax her body into realizing that it was just a dream. She mentally thanked Evangeline for reminding her that she wasn't killed by the scary man in her dream.

'Huh' she said while furrowing her eyebrows in confusion.

Who Evangeline was and how she was important to Lily was simply all she could think about. When she tried to think of family, friends, enemies, she simply had nothing come to mind. Obviously she knew how to walk, talk, breathe, and most importantly eat... but what happened to all her memories. She took a look around the place she was in to see if anything she found was familiar. But as soon as she was trying to observe, Evangeline woke up in a similar fashion as Lily did.

Heart pounding, eyes frantically searching for the answer of 'where am I?' question that was circling around in Evangeline's head. She then turned her head and saw Lily. That was the only thing around her who she was familiar with. She knew this girl.

'I need to keep her close or at least until I figure out what's going on' she thought.

She could quite put her finger on how she knew her, but that might still be from the effects of deep ass sleep. Maybe talking to her would jog her memory.

'Um...hey?' Evangeline said in hesitance.

'Hey? HeY. HEY?! That's all you have to say Evangeline?' Lily said with an underlying attitude. Just from merely HEARING Lily's voice jogged her memory pretty good. This was the girl she went to high school with. The one that she became inseparable with. Her best friend.

Memories of Vange and Lily's friendship where flashing before her eyes when Lily said something while snapping her fingers in frount of her eyes. Instantly pulling Evangeline from the trance.

'Sorry what?'

'I said, what the hell happened?'

Evangeline shrugged her shoulders and said, 'uh I don't know.'

'How do you not know?' Evangeline could tell Lily was in distress and didn't mean to raise her voice.

'Well... do you know?' Lily shook her head, 'exactly. Well we gotta stay focused alright?' Lily nodded her head this time looking down at her dirty shoes.

'Ok Lily, What is the last thing you remember?'

'I remember packing up a bag or something. I-I- think I was um uh...' Lily pinched the bridge of her nose with her thumb and pointer finger and looked down in deep thought. Almost as if it was giving her physical pain to try to remember anything.

'Ok ok don't hurt yourself now.' Evangeline said slightly chuckling, in a way to lighten the mood. Lily glared up at Evangeline immediately causing the smile to drop from her face.

Evangeline puts her hands up in defense, 'alright tough crowd. Sheesh. Well I don't really remember much of what happened either. Everytime I try to-to think of something, my thought is automatically like-like um replaced by a memory of our friendship.'

Lily sits up from her slouched position and slightly turns in to face Evangeline a little more and says, 'me too. I mean I see bits and pieces of my last memories but there is a blockage. Almost a metaphysical wall. And I mean as much I love thinking about us...I really want to know what the fuck happened.'

'Wow ouch. Well I can't argue with that.' She suddenly immediately stands up starts walking away and says , 'let's a go.'

Lily, in an effort to hurry, stand up trips over the bench leg that her foot was under. Evangeline looks back and sees lily face down flat on the concrete. This causes a roar of laughter cascade out of Evangeline's mouth. Everytime she hears the laughter, lily gets more and more embarrassed and fluster so she quickly stands up and brushes herself up and starts slowly making her way torwards Evangeline.

'Yeah yeah alright Mario. Laugh it up. Ha ha. So motherfucking funny. What would have happened if I actually got hurt. Would you be laughing then?'

Evangeline looked at lily like she was in deep thought and said, 'eh probably would.'

Lily scoffed playfully and shoved Evangeline softly saying, 'rude.'

Evangeline smiles and chuckles shaking her head slightly while looking at the sign that says "TOWN UPAHEAD" and replies with, 'ok ya dork. let's walk into town and see if we can figure anything out.'

The girls start walking on the concrete torwards the town about a .25 mile away. Luckily they weren't too far cause we already know that Lily has ZERO patience. And would throw a tantrum at anything that took longer than 30 minutes.

Evangeline was making mental notes of what everything looked like around her. The trees. The sky. The plants. The birds. Just observing. Enjoying the life that was around her. How every little thing in the universe had it's own personal job. That's what she liked to do sometimes. To be able to take a step back and just observe how some people act and how the world is moving along. It gives her a sense of serenity. And it's also a reminder that she is important and has a role to play in the world. She has no idea why she feels like she needed that reminder that she is needed. 'Something must've really fucked up my self confidence in my life.' She thought to herself, but she shoved those thoughts back, deep into her brain. 'No time for sappy sobbing. I have to get me and Lily back to-to where we are meant to be...if we are even meant to be anywhere.'

While vange is observing the world, lost in her thoughts, Lily's currently is observing street signs and buildings. She wants to have this info just in case they get kidnapped or something. Also it's just nice to know your surroundings. To know where you are and the possible escape routes. To know how to get back to the town if need be. Just remembering street names, or how many trees with no leaves you pass, can be life or death. Lily feels like she needs to always be on edge for some reason. Just the simple things needed for survival she wanted to know them, and ya never know this trait she has acquired might come in handy one day. Maybe it had something to do with her previous life. But she shook off that thought. She didn't want to actually give her self a brain aneurism trying to get through the blockage in her brain. Plus everything happens for a reason. So there was obviously a reason why she can't remember anything except Evangeline.

Evangeline suddenly comes to an abrupt stop and starts looking at the grass. Lily turns around to stand with Evangeline.

'Look why is there just a dead patch of grass right there? When all the rest of the grass is green, healthy and long?'

'Uh I don't know that is kinda odd eh?'

'Yeah it's a little more than odd. That's not natural like at fucking all.'

Lily shook her head, 'ha yeah I guess it isn't natural. Or it could just be a dead friggin patch of grass!'

'Oh shut up ok. I'm just observing my surroundings.'

'I am too!'

'Huh I seriously do not believe that.' Evangeline said while smirking. Lily thought she was trying to get a rise out of her. And Evangeline was. She thought it was funny and cute how her friend got triggered so fast. But Lily wasn't going to give Evangeline that satisfaction, cause I mean duh Lily is a stubborn little shit.

'Well...believe what you want.' Lily said while softening her face and smiling a small smile. And turned, continuing the trek to the nearest town.

'Yeah...well I will believe what I want cause-cause it's a free country!' Evangeline said in frustration but also satisfaction. She was thinking about how no wonder this girl was her best friend. Two stubborn people go together extremely well. They just fit together like a puzzle piece.

Evangeline finally caught up to Lily. She had to jog a bit because Lily has long ass legs.

They finally reached the town and saw the stores all around them. They saw clothing stores and coffee shops. Pretty much all stores you could even imagine in a small little town. They were looking inside all the windows of the stores both trying to see if any item would jog any of their memories. None, unfortunately, did. They have been looking around the stores for what seemed like hours. They were also getting weird looks from people. Which didn't make them feel very secure about themselves. But they also didn't understand why people were looking at them like they were homeless.

But then they walked past a very clean and clear window that showed them their appearance and they understood.

Evangeline had mid back length blonde hair that was also a pretty tinge of natural red. But it was kind of knotted and frizzy at the bottom. She had these pretty green eyes with a brown ring. Freckles cascaded all over her body. Her face, arms, everything covered in freckles. Well at least she thought she could see freckles through the layer of dirt that covered pretty much every inch of her skin. She had these blue jeans on and they had an extreme rip from the thigh to the lower leg and a red shirt that was falling off of her shoulder because of an impending rip. Evangeline also realized how her body was shaped. She loved it. She had these big hips and skinny waist. She felt confident in herself. Maybe a side affect of not remembering anything about being a insecure teenager in a society driven world.

Lily has shoulder length curly dirty blonde hair with an orange tint. It was DEFINITELY frizzy and knotted. But she honestly didn't care. She liked the look of her big hair. It made her smile a little. She had these big brown eyes with a hint of orange honey colour seen in the sun. She was tan and had long legs. She was wearing jeans as well but they were black. They had a rip right under the butt and also rips in the knee but she wasn't sure if they were there before. She also had a blue shirt that was stretched in the collar of the shirt causing it to droop pretty low on her body. Lily has nice size hips as well but her butt was the thing that she really noticed. 'Uh wow big' she thought to herself. But she wasn't very comfortable with how she looked. But she shoved that thought deep in her head because she saw Evangeline smiling at her body in the window. So Lily decided she was going to fake her happiness for the moment.

'Wow Lily...we are hot as hell. Like at least I think we are. I mean I know we are getting some weird looks but...wow.' Evangeline started while doing a circle and moving her hands up and down her body. It made Lily smile to see her friend happy. So she didn't want to ruin the mood.

'Yeah I know. Haha all the girls better watch out before we steal their men.' Lily said while chuckling.

'Oh yeah FOR SURE! They better hude their men inside a cabinet to keep them from our alluring looks.' Evangeline said while now facing Lily. Lily nodded her head in a smile.

The girls continued walking down the path of this town. Evangeline was looking down at the map that we picked up from one of the stores. And Lily was looking down at her feet as in a way to not feel as tall, in a way to blend into the crowd. But as both of these girls weren't paying attention to anything they were doing. Neither was the blond haired beauty coming torwards them.

'Uff!' All three of the girls stated when they ran into each other. The blond stranger fell backwards onto the concrete and Evangeline fell back on the concrete and lily fell into the rocks.

'Oh my god I'm-so-are you okay?' The blond stood up and went to help us up.

Once we stood up and brushed ourselves off. Evangeline said, 'yeah duh.'

Lily elbowed Evangeline softly and said, 'sorry. Um yes we are ok. Um I'm so sorry we were not paying attention.'

'Oh well neither was I. I was in my own world.' The blond smiled. She starts to collect her bags from the ground and the girls bend down to help her.

'Actually uh we aren't ok.' Lily says. Evangeline looks at Lily like 'shut the fuck up' but she lets lily continue. 'We Uh about like 2 hours ago, we woke up on a park bench or maybe it was a bus bench. I-I don't know but um we don't remember anything except each other.'

The blond looks at us puzzled and says, 'um what do you mean? Like forgot like as in bad hangover?'

'No blondie we mean we literally woke up with no memories and no recollection as to what happened.' Evangeline said.

'Oh. Um well do you guys know you're names? Or anything?'

'Yes. I'm Lily and this is Evangeline.' She said pointing to herself and Evangeline respectively.

'Oh nice to meet you girls. Uh I'm Jessica. If you want you can come back to my apartment since you have no place to go. I don't know why but I truly believe that you guys are telling the truth and aren't some type of serial killers.' She said while chuckling.

'Well maybe we are serial killers Jess.' Evangeline said while laughing causing me to look at her with a

Disgusted look and Jess looked at her a little taken a back.

'Woah guys I'm fucking kidding. Sorry too soon.'

Lily furrowed her eyebrows and said, 'Uh Yeah way too soon.'

But then Jess said, 'Well I thought it was hilarious.' Jess then started walking to her car. The girls followed. She understood their humour. Evangeline thought this was gonna be the start of an amazing friendship and Lily thought the same.
