I Remember

Chapter 9 : Not Fully Back

Nate opened his eyes, he found someone rubbing his hand. She had long brown hair, and pretty eyes. She smiled at the sight of him, and quickly got up.

Nate felt so weak, he tried to move his body, but he barely could. His body was numb, and it hurted a lot. He tried to remember what happened, but he couldn't.

She opened the door, "He's awake!" she squeeled. A doctor and nursed walked in, they told Miley that she needed to leave for a while. She nodded, and waited outside.

Mrs. Grey & Mr. Russo were hugging, they were so happy he was awake. They just wanted to talk to their son, they've missed him so much.

A few minutes passed by, and the doctor and nurse left the room. "He's okay right doctor?" Mrs. Grey asked, the doctor smiled. "He's better than we thought." he admitted.

"At first, he couldn't remember the accident, but it soon got to him. The thing is though, his body hasn't moved in a while, so he'll need some exercise therapy, to get him moving again. And, he'll still be weak on someparts of his body."

"Thank you doctor, thank you so much." Mr. Grey said, pulling out his hand. The Doctor shook it, "It's nothing, it's our job anyways." he said with a grin.

"Could we go and talk to him?" Mrs. Grey asked, the doctor nodded his head, and they walked in. Nate smiled at the sight of his parents, and they both kissed him on the forehead. "Were glad that your back Nate." Mrs. Grey said, rubbing his hand.

Alex's P.O.V.

As soon as we got out of the hospital, I ran out of the car and into the hospital. Someone even yelled at me to slow down, but I ignored them.

When I got to the outside of his room, I was a little alarmed to see Miley. "Hey Miley." I said, she just nodded at me. "Who's in there?" I asked, as she leaned against the wall.

"Shane and Jason." she said, I heard some footsteps behind me and saw Justin, Max and Mitchie. "Mitch, your here?" I said, she smiled. "Yeah. As soon as I found out, I asked my parents for a ride." she stated.

I smiled, and hugged Mitchie. "I'm so happy." she told her, "We all are." she said. I pulled away, and the door opened. Shane and Jason smiled at me, already knowing that I was next.

I hugged them, then opened the door. My heart was racing, I walked through, and closed the door quietly as I could. I immediatly saw Nate, he looked puzzled.

I didn't say anything, I walked up to him and grinned. Tears started to come from my eyes, and I wiped them away. "I'm so happy that your back, you don't know how worried I was." I finally admitted.

I carressed his cheek, but was given a surprise when he pushed my hand away. "N-Nate?" I stuttered, surprised and a little hurt. Maybe, it only hurt when someone touched him.

But the words that came out of his mouth, only made me more speechless. "Who are you?" he asked, I took a step away from Nate, remembering the horrible nightmare. No, not another nightmare.

"Your kidding... right?" I said, very slowly. Nate wouldn't play a cruel joke on me, especially one like this. He wasn't the type to, I thought.

"No." he said, he seemed so sincere. "Am I suppose to know you?" he asked, I could feel my heart tearing apart at the words. "Of course, I..." my voice faded.

This just has to be a nightmare, it has to! I quickly walked away from him, and opened the door. I couldn't help but let the tears fall from my eyes, "Alex, what's wrong?" Shane asked, as soon as he saw me.

"Shane. Nate doesn't remember me." I said, he looked at me, with bewildered eyes. He walked into the room with me, "Nate, you don't remember Alex?" he asked.

Nate shook his head, "I really don't. Is she our new friend?" he asked, I bit my lip. The word friend hurt even more, because we were much more than that.

"We need to get a doctor." Shane said, he pulled me out of the room. I wiped away the tears, I didn't want to say anything anymore. Was it really possible that Nate could just forget me, just like that.

"He really doesn't remember you?" Mitchie asked, she looked sad. I nodded my head, and I felt her wrap her arms around me. I just cried, Please, please be a horrible nightmare. I repeated in my mind, once again.

Elloo again, like I said... the next couple of chapters will be really depressing, especially for Alex. But don't worry, it'll get better, I'm hoping (:
