General Point of View-
Adam awoke to the sound of music. He slowly opened his eyes, to see Fiona getting dressed, while dancing around his room. It was to an upbeat pop song that was very catchy. He tried to contain his laughter, but when she started, what it looked like convulsing, he couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Fiona turned around to see Adam hiding his face in his pillow laughing, and she immediately turned red. She instantly froze in the middle of his room.
When Adam looked up, he contained himself long enough to spit out a single sentence.
"Oh please, don't stop on my account!" He said, before bursting out laughing again.
"I didn't mean for you to see that!" Fiona said, before covering her face with her hands.
Adam looked up once again to see Fiona was truly embarrassed.
"Hey," Adam said, before scooting to the edge of the bed, close enough to reach her hand. "You don't have to get embarrassed in front of me." Adam said, reaching out for her hand.
"I know that. It was just a surprise. That dance was meant for no human eyes to see." Fiona said, removing her hands from her face.
"And just to let you know, you're the last person on the planet who I'd get embarrassed in front of. I've never met anyone like you. I always feel so comfortable when I'm around you. I can laugh, cry, dance, and say whatever I need to say around you. You make me feel loved, and unique. And no matter what, I know that you'll always love me for who I am, and not who everyone else sees me as. You can see who I really am. You can believe my eyes, and not my mouth, because you can see the truth in my eyes. I don't have to be "Fiona Coyne" when I'm with you. I can just be, "Fiona"."
Fiona finished, and realized that Adam was wide eyed.
"Oh. Sorry. I kind of forgot you had amnesia." Fiona said, taking a seat next to Adam.
"No. I like this. I like finding out how much we were in love and how important we were in each other's lives. It literally kills me to not be able to remember it. But with you, telling me how you feel as if I knew what you were talking about, it helps, a lot more than you think." Adam said, looking into her deep gray eyes.
Fiona let out a laugh, before looking at him with a serious face.
"But I swear, if you tell anyone about that dance, you're dead amnesia boy." Fiona said, standing up. "Now get dressed. We have a whole day planned." Fiona said, before exiting Adams' room.
Adam stood up, and walked over to his dresser. He opened up a drawer, and looked inside. He was just about to pull an article of clothing out, when his door opened.
"And by the way, I got your clothes ready for you. They're on your chair." Fiona said, popping her head into the room. "You know, just incase you forgot your sense of style."
Adam looked over to the chair, and held up the clothes. They consisted of a white v-neck with a red and black flannel shirt, and a pair of blue jeans. Adam quickly got changed, and walked over to his mirror. He looked at himself, and buttoned the three bottom buttons, before walking out of his room with a pair of shoes in hand. He walked downstairs to hear a conversation going on between his mother and his girlfriend.
"I'd like to apologize, Mrs. Torres. I didn't mean to stay over last night. We we're just talking, and I guess we dozed off. It won't happen again." Fiona said, with genuine sorrow.
"It's fine Fiona. I just expect you two to be careful. I know it must be hard, but I honestly think Adam has a better chance of remembering everything if he's with you. You two spent the most time together, so it would only make sense for you two to keep spending time together." Audra finished, and noticed her son was standing at the entrance of the kitchen.
"Well Good Morning son! How did you sleep?" Audra asked, focusing all of her attention to her son.
"I slept fine. I remembered something." Adam said nonchalantly, taking a seat next to Fiona.
Audra's eyes looked as if the y were going to burst out of the skull. "What!" She practically yelled. "Well what was it!"
Adam let out a small laugh at his mother's reaction, before answering, "It was the first time I met Fiona."
Audra died down a little when her son answered. Of course, she was happy that her son remembered something, but seriously? Couldn't it have been something a little more important? She covered up these emotions with a smile.
"Well I'm happy for you dear." She answered, before fixing her hair. "So, what do you to have planned for today?"
"Well," Fiona answered, "I was going to show him around town, and places he liked going. Nothing to fancy."
"Great idea. Shall I pack sandwiches?" Audra asked, holding up sandwich Baggies.
"You know what, I think we'll just eat out." Fiona answered before giving Adam a "What-The-Heck-Is-Wrong-With-Your-Family" look.
"Oh." Audra said, placing the sandwich bag into the drawer. "Well. Call me if you need anything." She said, before walking out of the kitchen.
Fiona looked over to Adam, who was messing with the buttons on his shirt.
"Ready?" She asks, holding out her hand.
"Absolutely." Adam answered, taking her hand, and made their way through the front door.
"So? How do you like your burger?" Fiona asked, placing down her fork.
"Goodness gracious." Adam answered. "Why does food have to be so good?"
He wiped off his mouth with a smile of satisfaction, before placing it on the table. He took a drink of his water, and sat back against the chair.
"So did I come here a lot?" Adam asked, looking around at the unfamiliar faces.
"Yeah, I guess so. We ate her almost everyday after school." Fiona answered, nodding her head.
They were eating at the Dot, which was very well known to all of the Degrassi students.
Fiona never wanted to come here again, but Adam saw it while they were walking. She had to admit, their food was amazing, but because of what happened here with Adam and Holly J, she resented the place.
"So," Adam said, breaking her train of thoughts, "Where to next?"
"I want to show you a place." Fiona said, "Come with me."
They walked for what it felt like hours, but to them, it didn't matter. They talked about what they usually did when they went out. And who they usually hung out with. Fiona was planning on meeting up with Eli and Clare later on in the day, but right now, she wanted to show Adam a place where only the two of them knew about.
They walked down a path of rocks for a good half hour, before coming across a fountain with a bench in front of it. The fountain has flowers all around it, of every different size and color. The fountain was in the middle of a pond, but it was definitely the main point. Fiona took Adam to the bench, and they sat down.
"It's beautiful." Adam said, looking at Fiona. "How did you find out about this place?"
"This is where we used to come together," Was all Fiona managed to say.
They looked out at the pond for a while, before one of them spoke.
"You were never happy with yourself, Adam." Fiona said, looking down at her hands. "You never thought you were good enough for anything. And because of that, you'd hurt yourself." Fiona said, reaching over to Adams arm. She pulled it closer to herself, and rolled up the sleeve. Adam looked down to see faded burn marks, and a very distinct scar. His eyes widened at the sight on his arm. He looked at Fiona with confusion.
"You would hurt yourself to cope with the pain. Those little ones," She said, pointing to the burn marks, "Those are burn marks. You did that to yourself before you ever met me. We've talked about it a few times, but I never really understood why you went as far as to hurt yourself. And that one," She said, rubbing her fingers over the razor scar," That one was from a razor. You cut yourself after someone else hurt you. You couldn't handle what they said, and found an easier way out."
Fiona sniffled. She was on the verge of tears. Adam could tell this was an emotional subject for her.
"Some people never get the chance to say goodbye, Adam. And when I heard you did that to yourself, I didn't think I was going to be able to. Before you did that, I thought everything would be fine. That, if anything were to happen with us, we'd get through it. I just couldn't imagine a world without you in it. By the time I found out you were in the hospital for your arm, I didn't have what it took to talk to you in person I told myself that you wouldn't want to hear it, and that no matter what I said wouldn't have changed anything. And I believed myself. But after seeing that you were okay, I knew I was wrong. And I was right. You listened. I realized that it doesn't matter how it happened, or even why, what matters is it did happen. So, after you got better, I brought you here. I told you this could be the one place where you could get away, and be whoever you wanted to be. We came here more and more, and slowly, but surely, you started getting better. I thought if I brought you here today, you might remember what really matters. Not us meeting for the first time, but something that could help you." Fiona finished, looking up at Adam.
"You matter, Fiona. You're the first thing I remembered, so don't you think that there's a reason? Apparently my brain wants me to remember you. Apparently, you are the most important thing right now." Adam said.
Adams face faltered from a smile to a more serious face, his eyes going back and forth from both of hers. She smiled as she looked at his lips. They both started to slowly move in closer to each other, before their lips touched.
To his mother, he only thing that mattered was to remember the important things.
To Drew, it was landing a spot on the first string for sports.
For Omar, it was finding out how to speed up the process.
But for Adam, the only thing that mattered was this, right now. He couldn't think of anything he'd rather remember than his memories with the girl who stole his heart.
