Do you remember me?
One Shot
(I do not own the Rocky Horror Picture Show)
I looked at the Image that slowly arose out of the glass tank. I knew the boy underneath the wrappings had half of Eddie's brain. I wasn't supposed to know. Magenta told me hoping it would make me feel better.
I held my breath as Frankie pulled the covering off his face. He looked nothing like Eddie of course that's how Frankie wanted it. No one was supposed to be able to make the connection. I watched the boy get raised above the crowd. "Will he remember?' that's all I could think. He looked at me once. Then he turned away. When Eddie came out of the freezer Rocky looked at him. I saw it and Frankie saw it. Rocky knew who Eddie was.
When Frankie got rid of us and told me to show the brats Brad and Janet to their rooms, I had to swallow this feeling. I changed into my pajamas and then I got an idea. I knew that Frankie would want to go and play with Brad and Janet so I waited. He called Magenta and Riff Raff to watch Rocky. I begged Magenta to let me have a few minutes with Eddie. I slowly entered the room. Rocky was not yet asleep. He looked at me. I sat slowly at the edge of the bed. My heart was racing a million miles an hour.
I took a slow deep breath, "Do you remember me?"
Rocky stared at me.
"Do you remember me?" I paused "Eddie?"
He started shaking his head I felt tears build up in my eyes. I turned and ran from the room.
I ran now the hall. My tears were choking me. I turned into my room and threw myself on my bed. It was at that moment that I knew I would never have my Eddie back.
