Noah:

The guys from my fraternity had organized a party for the end of the semester,  it was going to be a big one and i was happy Valerie was going to come. The boys were sitting on the couch because it was still early and nobody had arrived,  I walked to them and sighed

“Okay,  everyone listen up” I told them once they were all gathered and i bit my lip “so as you might now,  Valerie and I got in a car accident” They all nodded and sighed, they were pretty worried when it happened and they visited me at the hospital too,  sometimes they are assholes but they are my friends.

“Yeah,  man, cut to the chase” Chad says rolling his eyes. He was my closest friend from the fraternity but we haven’t been on good terms since he literally said Valerie was a vegetable.

I glared at him and looked at the others “so,  she is amnesic” They frowned and David spoke up

“Please elaborate,  Noah” He asked and they all agreed,  i sighed again

“So,  after the accident she forgot everything that has happened to her in 5 years. She doesn’t remember any of you,  she didn’t remember me, just don’t make her feel uncomfortable, if you see her, introduce yourselves…”

“Wait,  so she isn’t your girlfriend anymore?” Chad speaks up with a smirk,  i roll my eyes at him

“I didn’t say that” I reply almost immediately,  i haven’t really talk with Valerie about that specifically,  but in my heart, she is still my girlfriend.

“How can she be your girlfriend if she doesn’t remember you?” Chad asked amused raising an eyebrow at me. I rubbed my face with my hands in frustration and looked up to him

“I haven’t talk to her about it,  but she’s coming to the party, so everyone ,  please behave” I plead to them, and give Chad a warning look,  he only chuckles and then leaves to the kitchen.

A couple of hours went by and people started arriving,  in a matter of minutes the house was packed. Tere were people from all majors,  all years, music blasting, alcohol everywhere, weed everywhere.

I was leaning on the wall on the living room looking straight to the door,  hoping Valerie would be here any minute, but other people just keeps walking inside and no signs of Valerie at all.

I go into the kitchen and grab a cup filled with vodka,  there was a big punch for everyone to drink but i prefered the raw vodka since i was having a terrible day. Valerie totally ignored my invitation.

My feet dangle as i am sitting on the counter,  and i see the very familiar brunette and blonde head of Valerie and Chris walking inside. Chris waves at me and Valerie smiles. I smile back and they walk to me.

“Where should we put this?” They say to the dozen of beers they brought. I point to the fridge and Chris nods walking to it.

“I thought you weren't coming” I tell Valerie truthfully and she laughs a little

“Yeah,  it's a funny story,  I lost my Charm bracelet,  do you remember it?” my eyes widens and my heart shatters slowly,  I bite my lip and sigh

“you lost it? How? “ I try to conceal my disappointment,  that little piece of Jewelry was the only thing giving me hope about us. She was always using it and I felt like having that piece of our relationship with her might make her remember us someday.

“I don't know,   I picked my whole outfit based on that bracelet,  and when Chris arrived to pick me up, I couldn't leave the dorm without it” she confessed and my Heart felt a little warmer and less broken.
