Jack:
"I can take over. You should get some rest, Finn. You've been watching over her for hours." My best friend kept staring at Solar, but sighed deeply, running a hand down his face. The moonlight fell onto the bed where she was laying, making her look pale. Alarm shot through me. Was she getting worse and that was the real reason for her paler skin? "Maybe you're right Jack. I'm just...trying to figure things out." He pushed the chair away from her bedside, standing to face me. His eyes were tired, but he offered me a smile. He tried to walk past me, dismissing his own words as best he could. "Finn, we've known each other too long. What's going on with you?" He looked back at me and opened his mouth to say something, but just then Solar shifted in her sleep, making our eyes snap back to her sleeping figure. Finn sighed again, his brown eyes fixed on her as he spoke. "I'm not sure, but you're right we've known each other too long. I'll let you know when I have something figured out, ok?" No that's not ok. I offered him a smile, hiding the fact that I was worried about him. "Alright. Get some rest." He nodded, looked back at Solar for a minute, then gently closed the door behind him. I let out a sigh of relief and sat down in the chair Finn had been sitting in not long before. When did I start having so much tension around Finn? I looked at Solar's sleeping figure. It had to be when she got here. I remembered how her face had felt when I felt her head after our skulls collided. Her smile had made warmth spread through my body. I longed to feel her soft skin again. No you'll wake her. I wasn't that selfish, but it turned out I didn't have to be. Suddenly, Solar gasped like she was coming up from air after drowning. She shot up in bed, looking wildly around. I quickly grabbed her shoulders to steady her. "Easy Solar. It's alright. You're safe." She looked at me, shock and surprise on her face. Her green eyes seemed to slowly focus on me. "Jack?" Her voice is soft and almost musical. I nodded, before realizing I was still holding her shoulders. Quickly, I released her. "S-sorry." I looked down at my hands for a while, before I saw her tiny one take one of mine. I looked up into her eyes, seeing her smile. "It's ok Jack. I'm glad you're here. H-how long was I-I out for?" Thankful to give her some good news I sighed in relief. "Only a few hours. It's the middle of the night now." Solar laughed. "I can see that Jack." Slowly, she let go of my hand and swung her feet over the bed to stand up. Quickly I scrambled up to help steady her, but she waved me off. She gingerly walked to the window. "The moon is beautiful tonight." I stepped up behind her to see the full moon shining brightly. "Yes it is." She sighed, but it was a sad sound. Solar didn't turn around, but asked a question that made even my blood freeze. "Is it normal for Guardians to not remember who they were before?" Before I could answer she continued, "I keep having these strange dreams that seem so real. They scare me Jack. All I know is I'm Solar, a guardian. That's who I woke up as, but I keep having these strange feelings like I know people even though I don't. Is any of this normal?" I sigh too and she finally turns to look at me. "When I first woke up I didn't know anything either, but besides you, me, and Finn, no it's not normal. The rest of them all remembered who they were even when they first woke. I had to get my baby teeth back to remember." She gave me a quizzical look which made me laugh. "Long story. But the point is you're not alone. Finn doesn't remember who he was either." Her eyes grow wide. "He doesn't?" I shake my head. Solar turns to look back out at the Moon. "Jack...who am I?" "I don't know. No one knows Solar, but at least you're having memories. I'd say trust them. If you feel wrong about someone, follow it. Your feelings and memories from your past life might just save you in this one." She nodded before suddenly turning around and hurling herself at me. Her arms wrapped around me and I stood there shocked for a second. "Thank you Jack. For trying to make this better." I gently out my arms around her. "I'm always here Solar. I'll always be here."
