Forgotten

[Amu's pov]

I leaned against the railing and looked out at the breathtaking view of Paris. Ikuto stood right behind me his hands on the railing on either side of me. I smiled and leaned back against him letting his body warm me. He leaned down his lips brushing softly against my neck, and his arms encircling my body holding me close. I shuddered as I felt his hair tickle the back of my neck.

"So in the four years that you've lived in Paris you've never been to the Eifel tower?" he asked. His lips still pressed against my neck. I turned around and wrapped my arms around his neck.

"I'm guessing that you haven't" he said holding me tighter. I laid my head on his shoulder taking in everything about him. His warmth, his scent, the feel of his arms holding me, his body pressed against mine, his lips lightly brushing against mine, then again more passionately like every kiss is our first and last, hungrily, wanting more than just kisses. It felt as though our bodies were melting together. Like our souls were one. I never wanted this moment to end.

"Ikuto lets go home, please. Akira and Akiko are staying at Tadase's house tonight Hikaru is at his friend's house. It will be just us." I said standing on tip toes to whisper in his ear. Even on my tip toes he still had to lean down. He smirked and ran his hands through my hair gently brushing it out of my face.

"You're quite forward tonight Amu-koi" he said his voice like velvet. I blushed and looked away my arms crossed. He laughed and stepped away from me entwining our fingers together. He led me back towards the elevator never releasing my hand.

"I really did miss you Ikuto" I said quietly resting my head on his chest as the elevator doors closed.

"I missed you too Amu" he kissed the top of my head. He placed his free hand on my cheek and gently ran his fingers over my lips. I kissed his finger tips and ran my hand down his chest.

"I don't want to be away from you anymore. I shouldn't have ever left you. I should have stayed with you. We could have figured things out. Everything would have been fine. But I was selfish stupid. I…"

"You were only worried about the kids. That's alright. You did the right thing Amu. If you hadn't left I would have never left Easter the twins would have no freedom. It was painful for both of us but you were able to be strong." He said leading me towards his car. I looked up at him surprised.

"No I wasn't strong I was weak. I ran away. Instead of facing my problems I chose to hide from them." I said placing my hand on his chest. He smiled and opened the passenger door for me. I smiled and got in.

"Amu you're the strongest person I know" he said before starting the car and heading for the house.

[Normal pov]

The red car sped down the road swerving between the lanes. The driver ignored the stop signs and red lights. It ran three other cars off the road. People yelled at the driver trying to get him to slow down. He was completely drunk and didn't care for anything or anyone in his way. He slammed his foot on the gas pedal speeding up even more. His car sped through another stop light and into another car. The sound of metal colliding with metal filled the air along with the screech of tires. The red car sped away and into a telephone pole. The blue sports car that had been hit sat in the middle of the intersection. The driver's side was completely totaled. Inside the driver didn't move red blood mixed in with his blue hair. Next to him the passenger sat, unmoving, blood ran down her cheeks mixed with tears. Her pink hair had spots of blood as well.

"I….Ikuto!!!!!!!!!!!" she screamed suddenly grasping the arm of the unconscious driver.

[A few hours later]

"So what's going on is he going to be ok? Please tell me he's going to be ok?" Amu said when the doctor walked into the waiting room. He sighed and looked down at his clip bored.

"He has a few severe injuries that have mostly been taken care of. The main problem is that his head was hit pretty hard but we won't know if anything is wrong until he wakes up." the doctor admitted. Amu looked down at Akiko who was sitting on her lap. Both she and Akira had fallen asleep.

"So he's going to live?" she asked quietly. The doctor nodded and tapped his fingers on his clip board nervously.

"Ah doctor can I talk to you for a moment" Hikaru said standing up. The doctor nodded and the two of them walked over to the other side of the room.

"What is it?" the doctor asked still tapping on his clip board.

"You said his head was hit is there any brain damage?"

"Like I told your mom we won't know exactly what's wrong until he wakes up"

"What part of his brain was damaged?"

"His temporal lobe" the doctor said looking down at Hikaru. Hikaru swallowed deep in thought.

"The temporal lobe controls the memories… Are you saying he might have lost his memories?"

"We won't know anything till he wakes up… if she wants she can go in and see him. Just try not to wake him up." with that the doctor walked away. Hikaru went over to Amu and told her what the doctor had told him, omitting the memory part of course.

"Thanks Hikaru. Tadase will be here soon to take you and the twin's home. I'll stay here tonight. I wanna be around when Ikuto wakes up" Amu said handing Akiko to Hikaru and standing up.

"Alright I'll take them home… make sure you get some sleep" Amu nodded then walked back to the room Ikuto was in.

[Amu's pov]

I sat in a cheap plastic chair next to Ikuto's bed. I had never thought that Ikuto could look so fragile. His arm was in a cast and most of his chest was covered in bandages. He had many different tubes and monitors attacked to his arm and his head was wrapped in a bandage. His face was covered in bruises. He seemed to shudder every time he breathed. I reached forward and placed my hand carefully on his uninjured hand.

"Ikuto please be ok. Please wake up soon" I cried holding his hand a bit tighter. He seemed to respond a bit. His hand tightened around mine. I smiled and kissed his cheek. I lay with my head on the bed still holding his hand. Hopefully he would wake up in the morning and things would go back to normal. We could go home and everything would be right.

[The next morning Ikuto's pov]

I opened his eyes slowly, trying to get used to the light. Pain shot through my body when I moved. What had happened to me? Where am I? I tried to sit up once more but the pain was too much. I looked at my arm and saw that there was a bunch of wires attached to it. When was I hurt? I sat up just a bit, moving slowly so it wouldn't hurt as much. That's when I noticed her. Her head was resting on one of her arms. Her other hand held mine. I could see tearstains on her face and she looked restless. I carefully released her hand. A ring on her finger snagged on one of my bandages. She opened her eyes a bit and looked up at me. She smiled when she saw I was awake. She sat up and looked at me, her eyes filling with tears.

"Ikuto your awake" she said quietly, she gently placed her hand on my cheek as tears ran down her face.

[Amu's pov]

I felt Ikuto's hand pull away from mine and forced myself awake. When I opened my eyes I saw I was looking into midnight blue eyes. Ikuto's awake, was the only thing I could think of. I sat up and looked at him knowing that any minute I would start to cry. I was so happy. He was ok. Soon we could go home and things would go back to normal. Everything would be right.

"Ikuto your awake" I said. Carefully I reached up and place my hand on his cheek. To make sure I wasn't dreaming. He just stared at me. He was looking at me closely like it was the first time he had ever met me. I remembered that look. That was the way he looked at me back in high school when all he wanted was to mess with me. That look brought up bad memories. I shook my head to clear it of those thoughts.

"The doctor's said you're going to be ok. So we can go home soon. I'll call Hikaru and he can bring the kids over in a bit… that is if you're feeling well enough to see them" I said trying to ignore the memories. He seemed confused.

"Twins?" he said his face showed his confusion. I blinked a few times trying to think of an explanation for how he was acting.

"Yeah the twins, Akiko and Akira, Baka, forget about your kids already" I said jokingly folding my hands on my lap. He stared at me even more confused.

"I don't have kids" he said as though it was obvious. I laughed nervously.

"Come on Ikuto cut it out. Of course you have kids. Sure you haven't spent much time with them but you wouldn't forget our kids" I said trying to hide my panic.

"Our kids? I don't think I have kids… and anyway who are you?"
