Shane's POV
Go back to her one day
These are the words have been tattooed on my left arm since we came here. I don't remember anything about what had happened before we came here. All I know is that we have been here since I was sixteen and I was supposed to go back to that place when I turned eighteen. I was supposed to go back for someone, but I don't know who. My mom might remember. She says she remembers something. Maybe it was where we were before we came here. I am going to ask her tomorrow, not now, she just looks so peaceful. I can't wake her up.
Claire's POV
I'll come back for you
I remember the day Shane asked if he could tattoo my arm with a message. When he told my why, I said yes, my mom even agreed to it, even though I was only fourteen and he was sixteen, we knew what love was, and everybody knew we had it together. He told me that this tattoo will be a reminder that every day he is gone he will be back for me some day, the day he turned eighteen. I couldn't wait until then, only a couple more months, and then I remembered that when you leave Morganville, you lose your memories, even though he had the tattoo that meant that he was supposed to come home to me, he might not remember why, or even who I am. But god, I hope he does because I miss him so bad.

THE NEXT DAY:
The first thing I planned to do today was ask my mom where we were before we moved here and who this 'her' might be that was so special that they got t be tattooed on my arm forever.
I found my mom in the little kitchen at our apartment. Her and Alyssa were talking and making breakfast, just like every morning since Dad died. Different things every day, never understood how they can talk about different things at the same time, but hey, they're girls, no will ever know why.
"Mom, can I ask you a question?"
"Sure Shane anything you like."
"Well, umm… do you remember before when you said you remembered."
"Yeah, of course I remember."
"Well I was wondering if it had anything to do with where we lived before here and who this stupid girl I have tattooed on my arm is."
"Yes honey, it was about all of those things, your father and everything why he died who we were before and who that 'stupid' girl tattooed on your arm is. It's a good story, but for another time. Just let me know when you want to know and I will tell you promise," she stuck out her pinkie like elementary school kids I wrapped my pinkie around hers. Pinkie Promise
Later that day I decided to ask my mom about our past.
"Mom, I think I want to know, about the past now."
"Okay Shane. Just one question first, do you remember the vampires"
"Excuse me, what? The only vampires I remember are from those stupid vampire books Lyssa read when she was fifteen"
"Okay then, do remember where we lived before?"
"Texas."
"Right we did live in Texas, but in a vampire town, your father, he killed a vampire once, out of self defense, but the council didn't see it that way and decided to kill him, life for a life basically."
"Okay, still not sure I believe you 100%, got any pictures or anything."
"No, sorry, all those memories get destroyed when you leave the borders, you know that. Or knew I guess. That's why you tattooed the reminder to you arm and the same to the girl, her name was Claire, and she was fourteen when we left. You loved her more than anything in the world."
"Wait, so you're saying that I had a girlfriend before we moved, and I loved her more than anything, but she was only fourteen?"
"Yes that's exactly what I am saying, you did love her, anyone could see that, and I can tell you still do, by the way your eyes lit up when I mentioned her name. You knew that when you went back to the town, you would slowly remember that was your plan. Go back to her when you where eighteen and you told her that you would kiss her when you remembered her, so she would know, you still love her."
"Okay, I know my eighteenth birthday I need to leave now, I'm sorry but I have to go find her," I said tripping over everything as I ran out of the room, back to my room to pack everything up.
I went back to the living room because I did forget to get my mom's permission.
"Sorry, about before, but can I g back please mom, I have to find her I just do."
"Of course you can honey, I'll give you a map with the town actually on it." My mom said handing me a map.
"Thanks, love you, bye. Be back when I can." I said running out of the house, I didn't care how I got there or how long it would take. I just knew I had to get there.
