One Year Ago..
"how dare you, don't even go there, saying how your all Mr perfect well your not Brendan right." Ste says angrily.
"how many times do I have to tell you, I'm not perfect but I have changed I mean I'm out in the open now ain't I and I certainly haven't hit you in ages." Brendan states.
"Brendan just leave me alone right. I can't take this anymore."
"What you talking about Steven." Brendan says in a panicky way.
"I'm saying that if we keep carrying on like this then maybe we shouldn't be together." Brendan starts panicking and says, "don't you dare give up on us Steven don't please I'm sorry we can talk about it."
"aargh I'm going for a walk."
"No Steven please don't leave me we can talk yeah. that's what couples do right, sort things out." Brendan makes his way to the door and stands in front of it blocking Ste from going outside.
"Brendan I'm only going outside you know to get fresh air." Ste says, eyebrows raised questioningly.
"I'll go with you" Brendan rushes.
"No please I wanna be on my own." "but..." Brendan was interrupted by a knock on the door. "room service" the person said on the other side of the door. Ste took that as a quick way to leave, he opened the door, pushing Brendan out the way in the process and running down the hall to the lift.
By the time Brendan started running, Ste had already got into the lift and was pressing the button to go down. When Ste got downstairs Brendan was running like a mad man calling for Ste. "Steven wait, wait please we can sort this out. I love you please just wait." Ste was still so shocked to hear Brendan say that in public and Brendan didn't really care who heard him say that he was too busy trying to get Ste's attention.
"Brendan will you just leave me alone please I'm just taking a walk, you know where you move your legs." Ste carried on walking, Brendan right behind him and after one minute they started arguing again.
Now they are in the middle of the road shouting at each other when Brendan screams, "STEVEN WATCH OUT!" Ste was hit by a fast moving bus and flew into the air with speed and landed on his back. Brendan ran over to Ste and screamed as loud as he could. "Steven? Steven, baby please wake up I'm sorry, I'm sorry I didn't mean to argue with you please just wake up baby."
The hardest thing Brendan had to do was call the ambulance he was sobbing so hard that the ambulance had to tell him to breath, calm down and start again. "My boyfriend h..h..has been h..hit by a b..b..bus... yeah he's still breathing but he's unconscious... please just get here quickly." After talking the ambulance, explaining where he was he cut off the phone and rang the one and only Amy Barnes.
"Amy you need to come to the hospital Ste's hurt really bad please come now." Amy got to the hospital and saw Brendan pacing up and down the corridor.
"Brendan where is he?"
"He's in the operating room, they wont let me see him, I need to see him."
"Ok, it's ok don't cry." Amy says hugging Brendan. Brendan paces some more before sitting down on the little chairs, knees drawn up to his chest so that his feet are on the edge of the chair. he wraps his arms around his drawn up legs and sobs hard into his arms. Amy crowds close to him and puts his arm around him.
"Mr Brady? Mr Brady? Can you hear me." the nurse says.
"Brendan the nurse is here to talk about Ste." Brendan jumps up making Amy and the nurse jump.
"where is he? Is he alive? I need to see him, please let me see my baby." Brendan sobbed.
"Mr Brady calm down he's fine, he has a few injuries. he might have amnesia but we're not 100% sure yet, we just have to wait till he wakes up."
"Please let me see him, I need see him please" Brendan cries.
"Calm down Mr Brady, he's in room 20." As soon as the nurse says room 20 Brendan ran down the corridor in a haste to get to the room. When he got to the room it was as if he went back in time to Ste's wedding day but only now there is no Doug or anyone to tell him to stop and go away. He pulls up a chair and sits right close to Ste's bed so that his knees are touching the railings of the bed. Brendan holds Ste's hand and brings his knuckles to his lips.
Brendan starts crying again and mumbles incoherent words. "Please baby w..w..w..wake up, please... I'm s..s..sorry. I'll never argue with you again I promise just p..pp..pleeeeaaassee... baby wake up." Brendan rests his head on Ste's stomach and sobs hard, repeating the word sorry over and over again like a mantra." Brendan must have fallen asleep because the next thing knows is that Amy is trying to wake him up.
"Brendan? Brendan? Wake up Brendan come on, you need to go to Ireland. Brendan wake up."
Brendan lifts up his head and says, "I aint leaving Steven please don't make me leave him please."
"Brendan you have to go to Ireland. Cheryl needs you."
"No I am not leaving." Brendan states, putting his head back down.
"Brendan you have to, Cheryl is in trouble."
"What kind of trouble?" Brendan looks up at that, fully alarmed.
"the kind of trouble where someone over hears her and Nate speaking about your dad."
Brendan is shocked about what he's hearing, he must be hearing wrong because how does Amy know about Seamus. "what you talking about?"
"I think you know what I'm talking about. you know where it was actually Cheryl that killed your dad not you." Amy says with a raised eyebrow.
"I don't know what your talking about."
"Brendan stop denying it, I know what your dad did to you." Amy says sadly.
Brendan feels like he's going to be sick and he does in the corner of the room. "You don't have to be ashamed Brendan." Amy says comfortingly.
"I've been ashamed my whole life."
"Well you shouldn't have to deal with it alone ok? Now go and help you sister she needs you right now."
After making a heart-breaking choice, Brendan finally decides to go to Ireland. he gives a long sad goodbye to Ste and leaves for Ireland but not before giving Amy a hug and saying thank.
Present Day..
"He was your boyfriend"
"My boyfriend? What I don't understand."
"I don't know how to explain this to you but before your accident he was your boyfriend. he was the one who called me when you got hit by that bus. his sister into some trouble so he had go see her and by the time he came back to England you had already forgotten him and he was so broken by that."
"Oh.. right.. ok erm I..I'm, I'm just gonna go for a walk." Ste says.
"Wait Ste don't go out there. what if Terry comes at you again."
"I don't even know him Amy. The old Ste knew him, I don't know him now so I can handle myself ok?"
"Sure just.. BE CAREFUL!" Amy says to the closed door.
...
Ste's walking along the streets, there's only one place that he wants to go and that's the club. Ste walks into the club and searches the place, he goes up to the bar and asks for a drink.
"Just a coke please."
"Sure coming up."
Brendan's in his office thinking about Steven, about how much he misses him and that he totally panicked back at Amy's house, what was that even about. Brendan decides to go and serve some customers but stops in his tracks when he sees Steven at the bar talking to the barman. The barman looks up at Brendan and then back at Ste and points at Brendan. Ste turns around and gives him a small smile and walks up to him.
"Hey, have you got a minute?" Ste asks.
Yeah sure, come to the office." Brendan answers then walks off into the office and Ste has no choice but to follow him.
"So what can do you for Steven?" Brendan asks.
Ste gets different series of visions of a guy which is Brendan who keeps calling him Steven. He holds his head because it hurts his head a lot.
"Are you ok?" Brendan's right by Ste's side.
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine honestly, it's just my tablets haven't kicked in yet." Ste lies.
Ste walks around the the desk and sits down then puts his legs on the desk.
"So what's up Steven?"
"Don't call me that. I don't like..."
"You don't like it when people call you Steve only Ste. Yeah I know." Brendan interrupts.
"So I never see you that much around here." Ste says.
"Well I am a busy guy... Ste" Brendan says, the name Ste sounding weird on his tongue.
"I know."
Brendan has a mini panic attack cause Ste could be talking about anything, whether it's he knows that he's a busy guy or maybe he knows about him being abusive and manipulative or...
"I know about us." Ste says.
"What you talking about?" Brendan says, walking up to the drinks cabinet to distract himself from looking at Ste.
"What happened the night of the accident and don't try and deny that you weren't there because Amy told me already. I keep seeing me and this guy which is obviously you, arguing in the middle of something and then you screamed and it went black."
Brendan doesn't want to sound weak but he burst out crying.
"I thought I was gonna loose you again. I was so scared, we were arguing and you wanted to go for a walk and I wouldn't leave you alone, I kept pestering you like a love sick school girl and you got so annoyed with me. I wouldn't blame you, the monster I am. Anyway we carried the argument outside and we were in the middle of the road, I tried to get to you as fast as I could but I was too slow and you was hit by a bus and I panicked. I called the ambulance and then after I called Amy and I was so scared. You lost your memory, I didn't want to leave you but my sister was in trouble and I had to leave. By the time I got back to England you had forgotten me. It's all my fault."
"Aww come here you idiot." Ste says, getting up from the seat and standing right in front of Brendan holding his arms out for Brendan to cuddle. Brendan clung onto Ste and sobbed hard into his shoulder.
Ste brought Brendan to the sofa and sat down. Ste pulled up Brendan's head and kissed him, Brendan let out a small sob and kissed him more.
"I love you."
Brendan must of noticed what he said cause the look on Ste's face said so.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to say that sorry." Brendan goes to get up but Ste pulls him back down and kisses him hard on the lips.
"Call me." Ste says, putting Brendan's phone back in his pocket that he secretly took out of his pocket whilst they were kissing.
"Yeah sure." Brendan says happily.
Ste kisses brendan one last time before leaving him in the office and heading home. Brendan is so happy right now nothing can tame him right now. he walks outside the office to serve some customers and he hug the barman Kevin cause he's so happy and Kevin is shocked by this because Brendan has never acted this way towards him.
"Are you ok boss?" Kevin asks.
"Never better hehehe." brendan answers, giggling like a school and punching the air with his fist but he nearly punches someone in the face so he just jumps up and down giggling instead.
"I think he's on something mate." one of the customers say but he just ignores them and carries on serving the customers whilst smiling like a chesire cat.
He finally got the the chance to get Ste back and now he's just gotta get him to fall in love with him again but first he's just gonna start by giving Ste that call.
