Hey there guys! I know I've been MIA for a while, but here I am with a brand new idea. Here are some background details:

Ages:

Max, Fang, Iggy, Aaron: 18

Nudge:16

Gazzy:14

Angel:12

Max and Fang ARE together...sorta. It'll make more sense once you read the story.

Disclaimer: I own Aaron...and that's about it! The rest is all JP

I couldn't see anything. Just flashes.

A boy...

with olive skin,

black hair,

and eyes so dark, they were almost black.

A...banner.

It read: HAPPY 18th BIRTHDAY MAX.

So many people around me.

I was happy, so happy. I can't imagine being happier.

The boy smiling

A ring.

Tears falling from my own eyes.

The boy holding me.

We're alone.

"Yes," I sob, "Yes, Yes"

I can't say no to him...

ever...he's my soulmate

I feel his lips on mine.

The happiness is overwhelming me.

It's too much, I think...but its not.

I'll never have enough of him.

Our hands wander, itching to touch each other.

His skin on mine...nothing in between us but our love.

It was beautiful...like nothing I've ever dreamed of.

We lay on the bed together, my body cocooned in his.

"I love you." He whispers into my ear.

I am content. I whisper the words back wondering how I could put something so...wonderful into three little words.

But I did, and that's all that matters.

We sleep.

My body is ripped away from his.

I let out a shout.

"Max!"

It's the boy.

They're holding him not letting him come to me.

A cloth is put over my mouth.

"No!" I try to shout.

But my vision blurs and the last thing I see is the boy, crying.

"Don't cry," I want to whisper,"I'll never leave you."

But the words don't come out.

The world tilts and I feel my head hit the floor before everything goes dark.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I jolt up out of my bed, soaked in tears and sweat.

The dream. What happened?

I searched my brain for any recollection.

Nothing.

I had the same dream. Again. And I still couldn't remember what happened.

I stretch and rub the sleep out of my eyes, finally looking at the alarm clock: 8:05

Crap.

I quickly took a shower and got dressed in my signature tank top and jeans before heading downstairs for breakfast, all by 8:15.

Yeah, I'm that good.

I shoved the hot oatmeal into my mouth, grabbed my backpack and ran to the school by 8:25.

I went to my locker and opened it up, pushing and pulling things until I finally had what I needed.

"Excuse me?"

I turned to the left and met an pair of weirdly familiar dark eyes.

"Uhh...Yes?"

mentally smacks herself on the forehead. Way to go, Max!

He looked at eyes sweeping over my face, as if taking it all in.

They were sad as if he'd lost something, something important.

He was taller than me by about 4 or 5 inches. His wispy black hair was slightly long, falling to the nape of his neck and curling at the sides.

He wasn't hot..no way... He was drop-dead gorgeous...

No! bad, Max! You shouldn't be thinking thoughts like that. It doesn't matter if they're true or not...

"Hellooo," said the guy, waving his arm in front of my face.

I shook my head, snapping myself out of the little world.

"Can you help me find my class? I'm new here."

I nodded, still unable to form a coherent sentence.

He pulled out his schedule and showed it to me.

Nicholas Ride

Locker Number 456

Schedule:

English Room A5

Gym Gym 2

Science Room D13

Study Hall Room C20

World History B7

Math E16

The girlie part of me squeals with delight. But the other side, the logical one, wasn't so happy.

Fantastic. Fan-effin'-tastic. He is in all of my classes. How is that possible?

I plaster a smile on my face.

"I'm actually heading that way myself. You can walk with me if you want. I'm Max by the way."

He smiles back at me,"Nick."

My eyes scan over his face one more time, lingering on his soft lips.

They just looked soo...kissable.

Ugh. Max. STOP IT. don't forget, you have a boyfriend.

And as soon as I thought it, I felt a pair of arms wrap around my waist from behind.

Aaron put his head on my shoulder, his breath hot against my cheek.

"Good morning," he whispered.

I smiled, for real this time and turned my head to meet his lips.

Before I knew it, my back was against the lockers, my fingers in his hair.

He was kissing me hard, his hands tightly gripping my hips.

"Ahem," Nick cleared his throat and I pulled away quickly, blushing.

He was watching Aaron with narrowed eyes.

"Sorry," I said, still embarrassed, "This is Aaron, my...boyfriend."

But he was so much more than that. He was perfect. So sweet and kind.

"Yeah, I can tell," he said gruffly.

Aaron smiled at him. A genuine Aaron smile,"Hey"

Nick gave him a tight smile back.

Gah. This is way to much tension for me. "Why don't we go to class now?"

Aaron put his arm around my waist and together the three of us walked to class.

And I felt Nick's gaze staring through the back of my head the whole way.

The was officially the beginning of the best and worst day of my life.

So...what do you think? Love it? Hate it? Love to hate it? Hate to love it?

So hopefully you guys understand that Max has lost her memory.

But how?

Why?

R&R to find out!
