Chapter 6

Kylie's Pov

My eyes open slowly and the first thing I see is white. Blurry white. I can hear muffled voices and I try to blink several times to clear my eyes but it's of no use so I just relax. I can feel a bed underneath me, even with the blurry white, I know it's not my room. Where am i?. I remember the first time I opened my eyes to black, I was in a coffin. Am I in heaven now.

"How can you say nothing is wrong with her, people don't just faint like that" I hear a male voice that sounds so familiar. It doesn't take me a minute to tell its Daniel, I know I just met him but I can recall his voice anywhere.

"From the tests we ran on her, nothing seems to be wrong with her, physically" I hear another male voice that I've never heard before and from the word test, I know am in the hospital.

"Did she complain of any form of anything before, maybe mentally or emotionally? He asks further

What

"Are you kidding me! I don't know, I don't even know her that much" Daniel exclaims and I almost roll my eyes but I can't.

"Oh" there's a pause "I thought she was your girlfriend" Daniel scoffed almost immediately. Jerk. I want to scoff too but I can't, I want to also look at them and know what they're talking about. I manage to turn my head sideways and I see Lizzy sitting on a chair with her tablet. Oh that tablet.

"I'll just run more test on her but that will be when she wakes up because I need to ask some questions" I'm awake, why can't they see me.

"Fine, we'll wait then" his tone is bored and I can tell he doesn't even want to be here right now. Well atleast he was nice enough to bring me here. I hear footsteps and Daniel walks to Lizzy.

"You should call Mom, she needs to know that Kylie isn't well" Lizzy says and I want to stop her. I don't want her to bother her mom, she's already stressed enough over work.

"Don't call her" I say the same time Daniel says "Lizzy" and they both turn to me. Well thank God they finally noticed me.

"I'm fine" I close my eyes and open them, it's no longer blurry. I can see the bright white lights shinning from the ceiling. Next step, I get up. I got up easier than I thought.

"I'll go call the doctor" Daniel says and walks out. I watch him till he disappears, I don't know why.

"You scared me kylie" I turn back to lizzy, "I thought you were dying" I start laughing. Dying is a huge word.

"Nop" I poke her nose "am not dying yet" she smiles brightly. Just then, the doctor walks in.

"Kylie" I nod "how are you feeling now" he asks holding a big long file in his arm.

"Am fine, Really am better" I say and he nods.

"So, what happened?" I stay quiet for a while, I stare at Daniel and Lizzy before speaking.

"I was trying to remember something and my head started hurting" I watch all their expression, Daniel's brows furrow together in confusion, for the doctor, well, not so surprised. Lizzy was just normal, am guessing she might not understand anything we're saying.

"How badly did it hurt"

"So bad"

"Have you been finding it hard to remember things?" I look at Daniel again, I don't really know why I'm looking at him, maybe because I didn't want anyone to know about the struggle of my memory.

"Yes, I can't remember much" I look down at my hands that am fiddling with, I feel it's a habit for me now, I find myself doing it when am anxious or nervous.

"Did you have any accident or head injuries?

"No" but I woke up one day and found myself buried 6 feet under the ground probably because I was dead or something, of course I can't tell him that.

"We'll have to do an x-ray on you to figure this out, a nurse will come get you ready" he says and walks away. The thought of doing an x-ray is really scary. I can't hide the fear in my eyes. I just hope it's not something serious.

"You'll be fine" I feel a hand on my shoulder and I almost jerk away. Daniel sits close to me on the bed.

"I have a friend that did it once, trust me you won't feel a thing" his words oddly comforts me and I nod.

"You don't need to be a scady cat" I look up to see a smirk forming on his face and I so want to slap it off. He's not hiding the fact that he's mocking me.

"Thanks" I roll my eyes and look away.

"Hey" he says suddenly and I face him, he looks over at Lizzy then back at me, "nevermind" he gets up shoving his hand into his pocket. What did he want to say, now am so curious.

The nurse comes in and takes me with her, I change into a hospital gown and finish the x-ray quicker than I thought. The doctor told me to come back after a week for the results after telling me not to stress my brain on anything I can't remember. Well he indirectly threatened me that if I stress my brain, I could do worse than just faint.

When we got home, I tell both Lizzy and Daniel to not mention what happened to me to Kate. As much as I need to tell her, I don't want to bother her with my problems. I go about in making dinner since it's already 6 in the evening. We had dinner together when Kate arrived then afterwards head to our various rooms, except me, Because I had to put Lizzy to sleep and it took a while because damn, she talks alot. Such an agile kid.

After she slept, I go to my room, locking it behind me. Take my clothes off, and head straight to the bathroom. I let the shower run down from my hair to my toe, calming and soothing my nerves. For the second time since I came to life, I wash my hair. My hair situation was getting too far and I didn't want that. When am done with my shower, I put on a purple pajamas and dry my hair. It didn't Dy completely so I take my comb and combed it a little before sliding into bed not caring anymore.

I find myself doing my usual thing, staring at the ceiling and lost in my own world of thoughts. I wish I can remember even a little about myself, how my high school life was, graduation, prom, did I have a boyfriend? The boyfriend thought lingers on my mind longer than expected. What if I had a boyfriend and he thought I died, and he's probably missing me right now but has to move on and get another girlfriend. I scoffed. Stupid thought.

But what about my parents, friends, siblings, that's if I even had siblings. I want to remember but I can't disobey the doctor. I turn sideways ready to sleep, if I stay awake, I'll just keep thinking. Just then I hear a knock on my door. I sit up and stare at the door for a split second. Lizzy is asleep. Could it be Kate. I got up quickly and open the door, my body freezing at the same time.

Daniel is standing by my doorstep, wearing just a singlet and shorts, this time I can't help it, I look down at his muscled chest, not so muscled but still a manly chest. My eyes trail back up to his face and for the first time I notice his eyes are blue. I don't know what came over me but I keep staring into them. I love blue eyes and I have this strong feeling that I've looked into someone's eyes like this, but I don't wanna stress my brain. Am too consumed by him to realise that he was also staring at me up and down.

"Can I come in?" He finally speaks

"Yea" wait "No" he jerks a little by my outburst, "why are you here"  I narrow my eyes up at him.

"Just wanted to" he trails off "can I at least come in first" he says sofly and I nod, stepping aside to let him walk in. I close the door and turn back to find him sitting on my bed already. Great, Make yourself comfortable.

I walk over to him and sit opposite him waiting for him to proceed. I try to act uninterested but am more interested than ever.

"Well I just wanted to say sorry for the way I acted the other day, for yelling at you like that" he shifts uncomfortably on my bed and I can feel he's struggling to say it "I was just keeping my guard up"

"Why"

"It's just...that's a long story for another century"

"Well century is really a long time" I smile and I can definitely see a smirk coming up.

"Am sorry okay, I'm not usually that mean" he looks at me, holding our gaze

"You sure? Because thats not the first time" I say referring to the bitch thing.

"well, you were trying to get killed and I'd have been the victim, the guy who killed an innocent good looking girl walking down the streets" he makes quotation marks with his fingers. A wide grin appears on my face, not because of his speech but because he called me good looking.

"Still.."

"Fine, sorry for that too" he finally says and I've never been happier. Now I don't have to keep enemies that live within, such a relief.

"So we cool now?" He wiggles his brows and I find it funny. I laugh lightly

"Yea, we're cool" I say with a not too big grin on my face.

"Okay" he smiles at me, his eyes never leaving mine for a second. Suddenly he backs away and drop his eyes to the bed, like he just came back his senses. "I'll see you tomorrow then" he is hesitant so I say it back

"Obviously, I'll see you tomorrow" I smile.

He gets up and walks to the door, me following behind. "Goodnight"

"Goodnight" with that he left and I close my door, locking it and taking a deep breath.

That was a good start..
