Okay, I think this is going to be the last chapter.

Hilary's eyes fluttered open. A pain something like a stake being driven through her head erupted from the back of her head. She closed her eyes in pain. After a few seconds, she opened her eyes again. A boy with blue hair sat at the end of the bed, fast asleep. A girl with pink hair sat sitting in the chair next to her in the same condition. Hilary looked all around her. Where was she? The girl with the pink hair awoke abruptly and seeing Hilary was awake, shook the blue-haired boy awake.

"Hil!" Tyson exclaimed as he hugged her. She sat there, stiff.

"Do I…know you?" She questioned. He froze, and then pulled away.

"Hilary? It's me," He said softly. She focused on him more and shook her head.

"T-Tyson?" She questioned. He smiled and breathed a sigh of relief. Her eyes fell on the pink-haired girl. "Mariah? Where am I?" She questioned. Her hand went to her forehead and felt the bandage there. "What happened?" Mariah and Tyson shared a look.

"You're in the hospital," She said softly. "Do you remember? Two days ago…" Hilary closed her eyes and tried to think hard. The pain got worse and she groaned. Tears squeezed out of her shut eyes. It hurt so much! There were muffled voices like yelling and someone was shaking her.

Mariah and Tyson saw Hilary close her eyes and try to recall what happened. Immediately, she started to cry and shook her head. "Hilary. Hilary stop trying to remember!" Mariah said. She 

shook her shoulders. "Hilary!" Tyson ran out of the room to fetch the nurse. The nurse came in, saw what was going on and returned with a doctor. The doctor rushed over.

"Miss Tachibana," He said loudly. "Hilary!" She opened her eyes and looked at him. "What happened?" He asked.

"She tried to remember what happened a few days ago. At first, when she saw us she didn't recognize us." Tyson answered. The doctor seemed to be thinking something.

"Holly," He said to the nurse. "Could you stay with Miss Tachibana while I talk to her friends?" The nurse nodded and took a nearby chair.

The two followed the doctor outside the room. "She remembers you now?" He questioned when they reached the hall.

"Yeah."

"Hmm…" He began to think again. "My guess is that the blow from whatever hit her and her mind are working together to block out such a traumatizing event," He said.

"So you mean…Hilary won't remember Alex…at all?" Mariah asked.

"Only time will tell," He said. "But until then I suggest you don't bring up the subject. They nodded.

"I'll go tell the others," Mariah said as she jogged to the waiting room.

"Can I see her again?" Tyson questioned. The doctor nodded. Tyson waked back into the room and the nurse left.



"Hey Hil," Tyson said softly.

"Hey," She responded from the bed. He sat on the bed. "Tyson, what exactly happened?" She asked quietly. Tyson sighed.

"Well…you were…" She watched expectantly. "In a car crash," He finished. "You and Kai."

"Oh…" Hilary said. "Is Kai okay?"

"He's fine," Tyson said softly.

"Hey," A groggy voice said from the door. They both looked to see Kai standing there.

"Hey," Hilary said, smiling at him. Tyson stood up.

"Kai, I need to talk to you," He said sternly. Kai nodded and they went outside. Tyson quickly explained what the doctor said and what he said to her. Kai nodded.

"She doesn't remember anything about him?" He questioned. Tyson shook his head. Kai seemed to be thinking. "She's finally free," He said finally. "Could you go talk to her brother?: Kai asked. Tyson nodded and ran off. Kai walked into the room. Hilary was sitting on the bed, staring out the window.

"Hey," She said with a soft smile when Kai sat down next to her.

"Hey," He responded. "How're you feeling?" Her hand moved up to the bandage.

"Better," She said quietly.

"Tyson told you what happened?" He questioned. She nodded silently.



"So when I get out where are you gonna take me?" She said with a sheepish smile. He grinned and sat next to her.

"Wherever you want," He responded. She smiled and they shared a quick kiss.

"Aww. You guys are so cute," A voice said from the door. They turned and Mariah smiled at them. A small crowd had gathered behind her. They filed in and Mariah sat on the bed next to her. Tala walked up to Kai.

"Mariah told us what happened," He whispered. "She doesn't remember anything?"

"Not about him," Kai said in a hushed tone. "She's free to live her life without the guilt." He looked at Hilary and the two shared a warm smile.
