Summary: Amy gets into an accident and falls into a coma. What happens when she eventually wakes up to a world in which she is a stranger to? How does she adjust when everyone around her has grown up and possibly moved on?
AN: Although not my first fanfiction story, this is my first Secret Life one. I got the idea from watching a movie the other day. Hope you like it…
Also thanks to my awesome friend and beta Jazzy…
Prologue
"Hey Ben, I can't really talk right now, I'm late picking up John from Pre-K." Amy manages to say as she runs to her car. Once there, she digs out her keys, unlocks the car, and jumps in. With her phone tucked between her ear and shoulder, Amy pulls out of the university parking lot.
Rolling her eyes, Amy gives an exasperated sigh at whatever Ben is saying. "Actually Ben," she interrupts, "I don't think I'll be able to make it tonight." For a few seconds she listens to his ranting as she honks her horn in frustrating at the slow moving van in front of her. "It's nothing like that," she interrupts again, "it's just that with Ricky being out of town, you know how John gets…whatever Ben, I got to go," Amy sighs, hanging up the phone and tossing it into the passenger seat where it falls to the floor.
Seconds later she hears the phone ringing. Cursing silently, she leans over, reaching for the phone while trying to keep her eyes on the road.
More than a little preoccupied she doesn't notice the oncoming vehicle. But she does hear it -- blaring sound of a car horn, quickly followed by the eerie sound of screeching tires.
Looking towards the sound, Amy could only stare as the huge truck made a beeline towards her.
Eyes wide and body frozen in place, she watches as it collides with her small car. As her head whips back against her car seat, an image of her 4-year-old son flashes before her eyes before slowly fading as everything turns black…
AN: Sorry it's so short, but it's only the beginning and there's more to come very soon. I hope you liked it. Please review to let me know what you think. Chapter 1 should be up as soon as my beta finishes going over it :)
