I squeezed my
eyes shut, willing the images and the pain away.
I think Carter was talking to me,
but I couldn’t hear the words.
Then I felt like I was
floating.
More people kissing-
wait…no, it was the same couple in each image, just at
different times.
The boy looked like
Carter…it was Carter.
I let the images stay.
But then I wanted to cry, and it
wasn’t because of the pain in my head.
He was kissing
someone.
Why was this happening? What was
I seeing?
But then I caught a glimpse of
the girl- it was me.
I wasn’t floating anymore,
but…different images of them-
or us- kissing and holding hands
and staring into each other’s eyes continued to flash
through my mind.
Suddenly it was over.
I opened my eyes and Carter
was leaning over me as he put a wet cloth on my
forehead.
I was on the floor, but not in
the same room as before.
It looked like a
bathroom.
“Where am I?” I asked
Carter as I sat up.
“Oh my God, Brielle
you’re alright! I was so scared. I thought…”
He didn’t finish.
“You thought what?” I
asked wearily.
“Forget what I thought, are
you okay?” He asked, concern thick in his voice.
I paused for a second…and
then I realized what had just happened.
Carter read my
expression.
“What…what is
it?” He asked anxiously.
I was kneeling on the floor near
him, he was so concerned about me, because…I’m
pretty sure he…I’m pretty sure Carter loves
me.
And I remember.
I remember loving him
back.
I slowly looked up at Carter, my
eyes probably glowing.
And I felt the smile spread
across my face- “Carter,” I started, “I
remembered something.”
He looked into my eyes to make
sure I was serious.
“Wh-what did you
remember?” He pushed cautiously.
I felt like I was going to cry-
tears of joy, of course- when I said,
“I remembered…well I
remembered that I love you, Carter.”
He took a minute to process what
I had just said.
And then he threw his arms open
and I had to keep myself from jumping into them too
quickly.
When I was in his arms, he hugged
me tightly.
“Brielle,” He said in
between kisses, “I’ve missed
you.”
