Heres another chapter for you lovely readers! I have discovered a way to transfer the documents from my Mac to my phone so I'll be able to post more often! I've been on a writing spree so expect to see a few more chapters soon. I hope you all enjoy this short chapter of cuteness!
Lova was staring at Harry intently, trying to figure out how she recognized him, how she knew that she felt safe with him. It was more than just seeing him the photos. She felt like she really knew him. Yet, she couldn't quite place her finger on how she felt that way.
"I'm sorry I yelled earlier." Harry apologized, breaking the silence.
"What?" Lova was too consumed in her thoughts to really comprehend what Harry said.
"I'm sorry that I overwhelmed you. I let my emotions get the better of me. It's just…" Harry trailed off, looking away from Lova.
"It's okay. It's understandable that you felt that way before you knew that I couldn't remember." Lova looked down at her hands as she played with her thumbs. "I'm sorry I put you through all that."
Harry's head snapped up at her words. Quickly, he moved to stand in front of her, placing his hand under her chin so she would look at him. Lova's eyes met his, the emerald green shining brightly making Lova feel at ease.
"Don't apologize. You couldn't control this. I'm just glad that you're safe and alive." Harry moved his hand to her cheek, giving her a half-smile.
Lova sucked in a breath as his hand brushed across her cheek. She knew why she felt like she could trust him. He was the man from her dreams. The one she could never remember fully. The one that would say sweet things to her, make her feel at home, it was him.
"It was you." She whispered.
Harry furrowed his eyebrows in confusion. "What?"
"You were in my dreams. Maybe the dreams are really memories. I could never fully remember you though. There would be times I'd wake up and remember your voice, or when I'd remember pieces of what you looked like. I could never remember your name, no matter how much I tried though." Lova explained, feeling herself start to babble. "I don't understand."
"I don't either." Harry admitted, wishing for nothing more than to take Lova in his arms and never let her go. "I will find out who did this and I will do everything in my power to try and get your memories back. I've missed you."
Lova gave him a small smile, not sure what to say to someone she couldn't remember. "Harry, tell me something?"
"Anything." He breathed out.
"Were we really in love?" Lova asked. "As in, deeply and truly in love?"
Harry nodded. "We were. I had to leave for a while because of the war that was going on. It was because of me that there was a war and a lot of people I cared about died, but I had told you that I would come back for you and I did. I came back and you were safe. When I couldn't find you after though, I was so scared that someone found you and tried to kill you because of how important you were, are, to me. We never found your body though, so we assumed someone took you. I searched for you in every magical place I could think of and captured all the bad guys I could to try and find you. I should've tried harder."
Lova couldn't fight the tears that were in her eyes as she listened to Harry tell her all this. Her heart ached for him and she hated that she couldn't remember this. She wished she could remember their love, it seemed like it was amazing and she wanted to have that again.
Without thinking, Lova wrapped her arms around Harry's neck and pulled his body flush to hers. For a moment, Harry froze, unsure of what she was doing. When he felt her so close, he immediately held on to her with everything he had. He missed her being in his arms, being able to hold her like this.
"I'm sorry." Lova whispered into Harry's ear. "I wish I could remember this. I want so badly to remember all of this but I can't. I'm sorry. I saw all the pictures of us and we seemed so happy. I want to remember it all."
Harry squeezed Lova a little tighter before letting go. "I'm going to do everything I can to make that happen."
Lova nodded and smiled at Harry before a yawn took hold of her.
Harry laughed a little at how big she yawned. "Come on, you need proper rest."
"Thank you." Lova said before making her way to the door.

Harry walked Lova all the way back to her flat which turned out to be only a few blocks from everything magical. Diagon Alley and the Ministry were less than 15 blocks away from where Lova lived and Harry couldn't believe after all this time she was so close.
Looking up at the lavish building, Harry followed her inside the front doors and up the stairs until the came across her door. It was closer to the top of the building being one of the bigger flats that were in the building. Lova stopped in front of her door and starting playing with the keys in her hands, not sure what to do.
"Thank you for walking with me, Harry." Lova muttered quietly. "You didn't have to."
"Yes I did, Lov. I wanted to make sure you were safe." Harry told her.
Lova smiled a little, looking up into Harry's emerald green eyes. "I'm safe, see!"
"I see that." Harry smiled a little as well. "I hope you get some rest and I'll send word for when Kingsley wants to talk to you more."
"Thank you again. For everything." Lova said sincerely, taking Harry's hand in hers.
"Goodnight, Lova." Harry leaned forward and kissed Lova's cheek before turning on his heel to apparate away.
