Day 56

I couldn't believe Leo remembered the virus. After I dropped my cup, we stared at each other for what felt like hours, while everyone around us started talking all at once. Technically it was probably just a few seconds, but time slows down when I look at him lately.

Leo looked upset, really upset.

"Jemma, can I talk to you in private?"

The rest of the team dispersed and left us alone.

"What would make you jump off this plane?" he said very sternly.

I didn't know what to say.

"To your death!" he shouted now, face going red.

I took a deep breath before I spoke, "Leo, do you remember everything about the virus?"

"Everything. Down to the detail."

"Then you know that I would have killed everyone on this plane if we didn't come up with a solution."

"Jemma, you knocked me out! And were going to jump without me even getting a chance to change your mind!"

"I couldn't let you die Leo!" I shouted.

He was quiet for a long time.

"Well I can't bare the thought of you dying. I would never forgive myself."

His argument sounds an awful lot like the one we had in the pod.

"If you die, I die." he said. "I may not be able to remember all the memories that are locked away in this brain of mine, but I know we're connected Jemma. What you do, I do. We go together."

He looked down at my hand and grabbed it with his. I wonder if he could feel my pulse racing in it. I squeezed his hand and he smiled.

"Wait a sec," he said, pausing, "I remember someone saving you….a guy. I can't remember his name. Who is he?"

Day 57

There's no way I could tell Leo about Ward. No way. I can barely come to terms with the fact that Ward is a traitor, and that he would do this to us. Traitorous asshole. Leo is like this because of him. If I ever get my hands on Ward, he'll wish May had killed him. I've always been the forgiving type, but Leo may never be the same, and it's all Ward's fault.

If Leo remembers any more of Ward, I'm not sure how I'm going to break it to him. He felt so betrayed. We ALL feel betrayed.

Day 58

I heard Leo cry out in his sleep last night. When I knocked on his door, he woke up and told me he had a nightmare about me falling into the sky. He said he could hear himself screaming over and over again, and see me being sucked out of the plane. Little does he know, I have nightmares every night of him, unconscious, still in the hospital bed.

Day 59

Leo's been having little breakthroughs every day. Nothing major, but remembering little tidbits of our Academy days, or parties we used to go to. He told me sometimes peoples faces would be blurred out in his memories, but mine was always crystal clear, and right next to him.

That made me happy.

Day 60

Leo was looking at the night night, or should I say ICERs today. He didn't remember designing them, or me helping, so he looked at them with awe, saying that our mixture of engineering and bio/chem is "bloody genius".

Yes, yes it is.

Day 61

Leo insisted he make breakfast for me today. I'm not sure where that came from, but he wouldn't take no for an answer.

He made me pancakes, with chocolate and blueberries. He said he had the idea to mix the two while making them, and thought I'd like it.

He made my favourite pancakes.

Day 62

After Leo and I went through our old Academy yearbook, Leo reached forward and engulfed me in a huge hug.

"You're really special to me, aren't you?"

I nodded against his shoulder, with watering eyes.

"I can feel it."

Day 63

Something odd happened today.

Leo and I were in the lab, chatting casually, when all of a sudden, he leaned forward, and gave me a peck on the cheek, then quickly ran out of the lab, red cheeks and all.

My that boy is sure getting brave with his amnesia.

Day 64

There was no change with Leo today, except for the fact that he's becoming flirtier than usual. Well….flirty for us, because let's face it, neither of us are very good in that department. He seems to be paying extra attention to me lately. And today he was so close to me, and glanced down at my lips, that I thought he was going to kiss me. I want him to kiss me.

But at the same time I don't.

I feel like that would be like lying to him in some way, because right now he doesn't have the full story of us, of what happened the past few months, in the pod. Right now he has the spark notes edition, the express version of us. And I want him to have every little bit of information before we can step over that line.

More than anything, I want his lips against mine. But I'll hold off on my desire until he can fully come back to me. Then we'll step over that line together.

Day 65

Skye had the brilliant idea of playing drinking games today.

The "adults" as she called them, were out, so she pulled out a bottle of Rum from an undisclosed location, and thought it would be fun to play "never have I ever." It was actually, pretty unfair to Leo, who has amnesia, and can't remember half the stuff he's done anyways! But really, I can answer most of the questions for him. I've been next to him for eight years now.

Since Leo has been out of the hospital for a while now, it's technically fine for him to drink. He should just drink within limits.

We do a few back and forth, with Skye mostly drinking. Sounds like she's had a much more exciting life than us.

I really wish she hadn't said the next question. "Never have I ever made-out with my best friend"

The answer was no, for both of us, but Leo, who looked at me to answer most questions for him, looked at me with interest, and desire, eyes wide. I slowly shook my head no, and I saw…sadness?

Is he starting to remember his feelings?

Day 66

After everyone else had went to bed, I was sitting in the living room alone, casually reading a book on amnesia. Leo came in and sat next to me. When I put my book down and turned towards him, all of a sudden his lips were on mine, and his hands were on either side of my face. Before I knew what I was doing, I threw my arms around his neck and pulled him close. It was sweet, exactly how I imagined our first kiss would be.

First kiss. Wait.

When I broke away for air, I gave my brain a minute to catch up to the current situation. Leo looked at me with such intensity, that I felt myself crumble beneath his gaze.

He leaned forward to kiss me again, and I pulled back slightly. He looked confused, but most of all, he looked hurt.

"Jemma, do you not want this?" he asked as he pulled away from me.

"I do!" I said, my hand shooting forward to caress his cheek. "I do-I just-feel like I'm cheating on you in some weird way. With yourself."

I paused.

"I don't expect you to understand. But-can this just wait till you remember more? Remember more about me? About us?"

He looked even more confused, but as my thumb stroked his cheek and he closed his eyes in feeling, he nodded his head.

"Can I at least hold your hand?"

I smiled.
