Riker's POV: 

~3 days later~

I walked inside Sofia's room to see her sitting up on her bed, staring at her hands.

I paused by the door, "Sofia?" She looked at me in surprise and confusion. I ran over to her and hugged her tightly. "I missed you so much." 

"Who the hell are you?!" she yelled, pushing me off of her. 

"What? Sof, it's me." "I'm sorry but I don't know anyone named 'me'." 

"Do you seriously not know me?" I asked, going to hold her hands. She began to scream again, "Help! Help!" 

"Sofia calm down, it's only me." 

The doctor ran inside the room, "What's going on?" "I was sitting here and I don't even know why I'm here and he comes inside and starts hugging me and touching me." 

"Why is she acting like she doesn't remember me?" I look at the doctor. 

His eyes were wide and he looked at Sofia then at me. "Sofia, do you remember anything or anyone?"

"Ross. He's my boyfriend. Where is he?" she spoke. 

My heart broke. "Ross isn't your boyfriend. I am. You broke up with Ross like 3 months ago." "What are you talking about? Where's Ross? I need to speak to him." 

"He's in California." I told her softly. "Where am I?" "In Colorado." "I'm home? I don't understand." 

"Riker, come outside with me." the doctor told me. As we were outside he spoke, "Sofia has traumatic amnesia. She's unable to remember anybody else besides..well Ross." 

"Could she regain her memories?" "Within a couple of days she should be able to have her memories but right now we have to get Ross down here." 

I sighed and ran my hand through my hair before calling my brother. 

"Hel-" 

"Sofia woke and she wants you so get down here now." I hang up and walk out the hospital. I sit on the steps outside and break down. 

I've really lost her now. And worst yet she remembers Ross but not me. I don't get it. 

"Hey, um. Are you okay?" I looked up to see a girl with cherry blonde hair. I shake my head, "I'm fine." 

She sat next to me, "You're at the front of a hospital crying. Did someone die?" 

"It would probably be better if they did." I mumbled. "I didn't quite catch that." I shake my head again.

How could I say that? I'm happy she's alive but if she doesn't remember me what's the point? I stayed here for a month by her side and she doesn't even remember me? I mean I guess I deserve that for everything I've put her through but I can't take this pain. 

It's eating me alive and the fact that she wants Ross and not me. Kills me even more that I wish I was on my death bed. 

The girl rubbed my back, "I'm Lea." I gave a small smile, "Riker." 

"You wanna talk about it? Wait what's wrong with me? I'm a total stranger and here I am comforting a total stranger. I'm sorry." she was about to leave but I held unto her hand. 

"I'm not some kind of rapist and you seem nice, would you mind staying a while longer?" I ask. 

She looked baffled but sat back beside me. I now realised that she said I was a total stranger. "You've never heard of me before?" I looked at her. 

She slowly shook her head, "Should I know you?" 

"I guess not. I'm in a band called R5, my brother is Ross Lynch, you might know him more than me." 

She nodded, "I've heard the name Ross Lynch before. Wasn't he on Austin and Ally and Teen Beach Movie?" 

I nodded, "That's the one. My brother." More famous than I am and gets all the girls, including Sofia. 

"That's cool, now that I think about it I've seen the name Riker before." she paused to think. 

I stared off into the distance and she yelled, startling me,"You were on Glee!" I chuckled, "Yeah, I was. Wasn't anything big though. It was a really small role." 

"Doesn't matter." 

I smiled, "Thanks." "Yay! Now you're not thinking of whatever made you cry. Oh no, I just mentioned it so now you're gonna be sad again and I just ruined the whole thing. I'm such a hot mes-" 

"Lea." I stopped her and she stared at me. "I'm fine, you've made me feel better. Honest." 

She then smiled and her blue grey eyes glistened. She's really pretty. "Thanks." she blushed. "Thanks for?" I looked at her in confusion. 

"Calling me pretty." she laughed. "That was out loud?" I look at my hands in embarrassment. 

"You're quite pretty too. Wait no not pretty I mean handsome. You're not a girl I can't say you're pretty. Handsome was what I meant. Handsome is a word you use on guys." 

I laughed, "Do you always tend to babble?" 

She blushed, "Yeah. Pretty much. You see it's something that's been a problem for me since I was a little girl and I've tried not to babble and here I am..doing it again." 

I shrug, "It's cute." 

"Are you flirting with me? I'm surprised a guy like you doesn't have a girlfriend." 

I frown, "Um, I do, she's inside." She gave a small smile, "Can I meet her?" I shook my head, "That wouldn't be a good idea. She doesn't even remember me anyway and to meet a perfect stranger might just confuse her more." 

"Wait. Doesn't remember you? Is she the one you were crying over? She has amnesia or something?" 

I broke down again, "She got in a car accident because of me and went in a coma and she just woke up and she has traumatic amnesia and she can't even remember me but she remembers my brother and the time she was with him and I guess I deserve this for how I've treated her but I'm in so much pain." 

Lea hugged me as I cried into her shoulder. 

"Ssh. What do you mean it was your fault?" I cried harder, "I was being a jerk to her and she ran away from me and got hit by a car." 

"Oh my gosh. Don't cry Riker. It's not your fault. Ssh. Amnesia isn't a permanent thing anyway, she'll remember you in a few days." 

 I shook my head, "It wouldn't matter, she hates me anyway. When she remembers me she's gonna remember what I put her through and that's it for us." 

"That's so sad." Lea sniffled, "Don't worry. Lets go get some frozen yogurt and calm you down okay?"

Jess' POV: 

"What did he say?" I looked at Ross anxiously. 

"Sofia woke up and she's asking to see me." "What?" "My thoughts exactly." "What else did he say?" He shrugged, "He didn't say much, he hung up quickly without giving me a chance to speak." 

"Well Sof is asking for you so let's go to Colorado now." I felt excited as I ran upstairs to pack. 

"Jess, you can't go." Ross told me. "Why?" "You have exams anyway and Sofia asked for me." he sighed. 

"She's my best friend and I'm not gonna stay here when she's awake. I've been waiting almost a whole month to hear that she's okay. I'm gonna see her." 

"You can't and I won't let you jeopardize your education and Sofia wouldn't want you to either. Stay here, finish your exams and then come or we'll be coming back here. You'll see her." 

I stare at him for a while before letting out a sigh, "Fine. Call me when you get there and tell me what's going on." 

He nodded, "I'm gonna see if I could get a ticket, I'll leave now." 

I gave him a tight hug, "Thank you, for everything." He hugged back just as tight, "Anything for you."

I felt relieved. She's okay. I feel like I could really breathe now. I looked at the picture of Sofia and I. 

"This isn't over yet."
