TW: memory loss
George's cat died

---------------------------------------------------------
George's pov
I groaned and slowly lifted my head up. I could not see anything but I was not panicking. I was more confused.

"Hello? Is there anybody there?" I whispered.

I heard steady breathing coming from behind me so I assumed the person was sleeping and I didn't want to awaken them.

I tried to move but I had wires connected up to me. When I tried to tug on them to take them off me, but a loud noise rang in my ears so I stopped to cover them.

"He is awake. He is awake!" Someone shouted.

The person behind me shuffled and started talking to me.

"Georgie. Your awake. How are you doing?" they asked.

"Em. I don't know who 'Georgie' is but I am OK. Who are you and where am I? " I asked.

I heard soft sobs coming from behind me.

" Your name is George NotFound and I am your boyfriend Clay. You are in the hospital with blindness and memory loss. Please Georgie. Please try and remember. "He cried.

" I'm sorry. I can't remember you. Where is my mum? "I asked.

" I'm right here George. I am right here. " another voice replied.

" Georgie. Who else do you remember?" Clay asked.

" Em. Dad and Georgia. That's all the people I remember. "I replied honestly.

" Georgie. Your farther left 3 years ago. You won't see him again. "mum said.

" Why?" i asked.

" He hurt you and me. Your better now Georgie. " she responded.

" Oh. Okay. Where is Georgia and Luca?" I asked her.

" Well Georgia is at home and Luca sadly died a year ago. I'm sorry hunny. "

" What? No she can't be gone. She can't. I need her." I cried.

" Georgie. Don't worry. I can get you a new cat if you want." Clay replied.

I just gripped onto Clays T-shirt and cuddled into him. I eventually fell to sleep cuddling into my boyfriends chest.

Clays pov
Once George had fallen asleep again, I was annoyed at myself. Why did I say I was George's boyfriend? It was what I wanted but I should not have used his loss of memory against him. What I didn't know was I said this out loud.

"it's what you want Clay. Your obviously nervous when it comes to love and now you don't have to say it. You know he loves you and he has told Georgia a lot."Georges mum said to me.

" It feels wrong though. I feel like I am using his memory loss to my advantage. "I responded.

" Your not. Trust me. You love him and I know you will take good care of him. I heard the doctors say that there is an operation they can do to get his vision back if he agrees to it. We will have to wait 2 months thought just incase his vision is only temporary. "she replied.

" Thats good. He won't be able to go to school though so I will stay of school and see him every day. "I replied.

"You can stay at our house. You can stay in George's room or the spare room. It is up to you." George's mum responded.

"Only if I am welcome. Thank you so much Ms NotFound."

" You are always welcome Clay. Just as long as your parents are aware."

"I will let them know. I will also tell Karl what happened because he went home before all this drama" I told her.

"Well. I'm going to get some food. Would you like some?" she asked me.

"Yes please. Anything will do."

She nodded and left the room. I decided to ring my mother first and let her know where I have been for a few days. I have ignored all her messages and calls because I was too busy looking for and after George.

Clays Mums POV

I have been worried sick about Clay. He had not been home in days and I was starting to panic. He ignored my calls and messages. Even Drista had tried to contact him but he declined every call.

I was not sleeping and worrying about where he could be and why he had not been at home or online. Not even SapNap knows where Clay is.

All of a sudden, I got a call. I assumed that work was on my tail since I didn't come in. I was too busy to go into work whilst looking for Clay.

"Hello?" I answered, not even looking at the caller ID.

"Hey mum. It's me. I am sorry I have not been at home recently. I have a good explanation." He started.

"What the hell clay?! You leave for God knows how long and now you appear with a 'Good explanation'?" I was angry now.

"My boyfriend George ran away, is now blind and has lost memory of literally everything! You expect me to put coming home above my boyfriends health?!" Clay asked madly.

"Well, you could have asked me but I am not mad. I respect that you want to care for your Boyfriend. Since when was he your boyfriend?" I was curious.

"Just... Just before he... He lost his memory." he almost cried.

"Oh honey. You. Can stay with him as much as you want as long as that is ok with George's mum. I tried to reassure him. I don't think it was working though.

" Thank you mum. I've... I've gotta go tell George's best friend what happened. Goodbye. "He hung up.

I put my head in my hands and started crying. Why does all this happen to my baby boy? He never did anything wrong so why does he get punished like this?

Karl's POV

" Hey Clay. How are you? "I happily sang.

"Not good Karl. Not at all good" He cried.

"Oh my. What's wrong? Did I do something wrong? Are you hurt? What's going on?" I spilled out questions.

"Karl. Please breathe. Georgie is in hospital. He is blind and has memory loss. He can't... Can't remember any of us. He remembered his father, mother, sister and cat but nobody else."

"How? What? When? Where? Why?" I asked.

"He just randomly became blind and fell causing a concussion and memory loss. It was just after you left the other day and he banged his head at the hospital. He... We just became boyfriends when he... He fell and forgot."

"Oh my. Can I come and see him? Please?" I was also crying.

"The doctors said we have to wait for him to be discharged first. I'm so sorry Karl." he apologised.

"Okay. Bye."I hung up.

I ran over to my bed, grabbed a pillow and screamed into it. How could my best friend go through so much pain?

Without George, I was truly alone.
