The Hunger Games: Never Forget

I'm Not A Liar

I walk into the blank hospital and enter Oliver's white room. I suppress a tight fake smile as he runs his hand through his messy red-blonde hair, "Hi Oliver, do you remember anything?" He sighs and gives me the same answer every day for a week, "No, Sorry... Uh... Will." I bite my lip, everyday I force him to call me 'Will' but now it just sounds so... Forced. "It's fine.", I breathe, "Just say 'Willow' I really don't care.", I lie and he nods, "If you insist." Veronica enters the room smiling as she does, "Ollie!", she cheers with her southern accent and kisses him on the lips.

The biting on my lip increases but I don't say anything, after a week, you learn not to react. "Oh, Willow, Didn't see you there. What are you doing here?", she asks fiddling with her blonde braid on her shoulder and I sigh, "Same as always, checking on Oliver." She smiles and looks him in the eye, "I have to go but I just wanted to say hello, bye y'all!", she exits the room and I silently mock her, Bye Y'all. I roll my eyes and Oliver looks at me, "Would you lie to me?", he asks and it shocks me but I plainly answer, "No." He nods and looks out the window but I dig for an answer, "Why?" He looks me in the eye as I stare into his green ones. He slowly gets the words out, "I don't think I like Veronica." I quickly scoff, "Took you long enough."

He looks down at his shoes and whispers, "I feel like I'm closer to you but, I've treated you so badly." I shake my head, "You couldn't of known." He looks back up and me and nods, "You told me and I didn't believe you." I roll my eyes and smile, "So does this mean you remember our relationship?", I ask hopeful but he shakes his head, "Sorry, no. I now know you wouldn't lie to me but, I still can't revive my feelings, sorry." I sigh and shake my head slightly, "No, no. It's completely okay. Why would I get my hopes up anyway?" I give a fake smile and walk out of the door.
