Thanks for the reviews guys. You made my weekend. Here's another chapter with a new character you might know.
Disclaimer: Still own nothing :-(
The next morning Rose woke up and almost had to run to make it on time for her afternoon lunch
with Jon. When she got to the restaurant she saw Jon sitting in the corner almost falling asleep.
"Wake up sleepy head," she whispered to him. His head slipped from his hand and his head banged
the table. He sat up and looked around. "Don't worry. I didn't get much sleep either," she said. "I
don't know why but I think they may be something in my past I don't remember," he said. Rose
nodded but didn't add anything, as it was how she felt as well. Both of their nights had been filled
with memories of the past that they weren't very sure about. They ate a light meal and left to go have
their daily walk around the park. That night, they both had dreams again. The next morning, at work,
Jon got a call on the phone. "Hello, this is London Hospital. Please hold." someone said. A few
seconds later someone came on. "Jon Peters, this is Dr. Livingston, we have a new patient whom
like yourself has no memory of any past events. He has been here for a few months and we were
wondering if you'd like to take him in for the time being as he tries to rebuild his life." Jon took off his
glasses and rubbed his eyes. He could help this man, but somehow he knew him to be like himself.
He built a new life and maybe he could help him as well. "Alright, I'll do it," he said. "Good, his
name's Seth Beggert, or at least that seems to be the name he wants to give himself. Strange that all
he remembered was initials like yourself. Anyway, I'll send him by later this evening," the doctor said
and hung up. Jon put the phone down as well and went to go to work. At 1 o'clock, he met up with
Rose at the deli for their usual lunch. "I have something important to tell you," he said. They went
over to a table in the corner and, after a moment, spilled his guts to her. How he just woke up one
day a few years ago with no memory. How Jon Peters wasn't even his real name, but the J and P
were his. And how there was some guy coming to live with him with symptoms very much like her
own. Rose listened to all of this, not saying a word. "So, I guess this makes me a huge liar then," he
said getting up to leave her. On the contrary though she grabbed his arm and held on tightly. "On the
contrary, I was, am, in a very similar situation as yourself. I woke up as well in a hospital with
absolutely no memory of anything around the same time as yourself," she said strongly. Jon looked at
her and sat down again. "Now, what was this man's name again," she asked interested. "Seth
Beggert," he said. "Well I'll be there with you and together maybe we can all remember who we
were," she said. Jon nodded resolutely and it was settled. He went back to work but couldn't really
concentrate. That night Rose met him in the apartment and they waited. At half past seven, the
doorbell rang. Rose nodded to Jon and he opened the door. Standing there was a man who had
shoulder-length black hair and pale eyes. He had a small bag with him and nothing else. "Are you
Jon," he asked. He nodded and Seth let out a long breath he was holding and laughed a little. "I was
worried, wasn't sure if I was right or not. Name's Seth by the way," he said extending his hand. "I'm
Jon, as you know, and this is my girlfriend Rose," he said introducing her. "Please, the pleasure is all
mine," Seth said, kissing her hand. "Excuse me but I'm taken," she said taking Jon's hand. "Ah, I see,
well I'm sorry if you feel I'm intruding," Seth said. "Not at all, we can probably help and so forth,"
Jon said. And thus a new friendship began that day, one that even time could not stop from beginning
again.
