Disclaimer: I don't own anything.
Jack did not die. The ambulance arrived just in time and he was rushed to the Erinsborough hospital emergency room. However, he was in a coma and had been like that for several weeks already, and the whole time, Nina was there by his side, begging him to wake up. Since the incident, Nina's feelings for Jack were out in the open, not that she told anyone, but by the way she was holding him on the street and how she would stay in his room for days on end without eating or sleeping, everyone had guessed. No matter how much Lyn or Trixie pleaded with her, she refused to leave his side, not wanting to miss the moment he would wake up.
Jack slowly opened his eyes and the room gradually became clear. He had a huge headache and felt like the entire building was rocking. Before he could process anything, he heard a scream at the corner of the room and found a blonde girl running towards him with tears in her eyes. "Jack! You're awake! Oh my god, I was so worried!" she started rambling on. Jack looked at this stranger with a look of confusion. Who is she? Do I know her? What is she doing here? A thousand questions raced through his head. "I'm sorry, but do I know you? Who are you?" he asked, attempting to get some answers to the questions in his mind. "What are you talking about? It's me, Nina! You probably don't recognize me as I haven't had a shower for several days…" she replied with a smile on her face. Jack continued to stare back confused, "I still don't know who you are sorry. Where's my girlfriend Lori?" he asked. Nina took a step back in horror and called for the doctor, who began several tests on Jack. Nina sat in the corner the entire time, staring into space with a blank expression on her face. Fifteen minutes later, the doctor turned to Nina and said, "Jack seems to be recovery quite well. His blood pressure is normal, and so is his heartbeat. However, due to the impact on his skull, and the huge loss of blood, he seems to be suffering from amnesia. He doesn't remember anything that happened in the past year. However, with enough encouragement and support from his loved ones, there is a high chance that he will regain his memory," he finished with a smile and left the room. Nina was in shock. He doesn't even remember her.
Jack was allowed to return home after a few days, and everyone was fussing over him and spending all their time with him. Everyone that is, except for Nina, who wanted to stay out of it all. It hurt her too much to be near him when he can't even remember her. Considering how Jack could not remember Nina and she was never around anymore, Lori decided to ignore the fact that Nina was in love with him and tried in all of her power to prevent Jack from regaining his memory of her and forced Taj not to reveal who she is to Jack. She wanted to continue her life and relationship with Jack the way it was before Nina was in the picture. She had a feeling deep in the pit of her stomach that Nina's feelings for Jack were not completely unrequited. The rest of the Scully family did not tell Jack about Nina, as she is currently out of his life, so there was no point breaking up the relationship between Jack and Lori
Nina's parents found her an agent, who signed her up to weekly gigs at Lou's Pub, where she was currently receiving a lot of interest and popularity. The work was quite hard and tiring, but she was thankful for this distraction from her constant thoughts of Jack. She had passed Jack many times in the corridors at school, but never spoke to him, even if he was the one who started the conversation. Jack still wondered who is girl was. She was a complete stranger to him, though she was the one there by his side in the hospital room when he woke up. Though he asked many times, no one in his family told him who she was exactly, and she was refusing to talk to him. He was depressed. He wanted desperately to regain his memory so he can find out who this Nina is, but no one is willing to help him. Noticing his depression, Taj invited him to the pub for a round of drinks on Saturday night, to distract him from his troubles. Unknown to either of them, it was the night Nina was performing.
Please Review! Thanks!
