24 Skyler Swanson

She asks me to kiss her after throwing a pitch while blindfolded, and my heart starts fucking pounding to break free from my cold chest. It has only been a little over a week since her accident; I don’t think it’s possible for her memories to come back this quickly. Her stitches in her forehead haven’t even been taken out yet. I just don’t want to get her hopes up if the kiss doesn’t magically bring everything back. But I can’t resist her. When our lips touch, I feel what I’ve always felt with her. The sun suddenly is shining brighter, the wind softer, and my life fuller. There’s passion and need being exchanged between us until she collapses in my arms.

“B, stay with me. Are you okay? Please fucking say something!” I react to her jelly knees and limp arms. I catch her under her arm and quickly reach to untie her blindfold. Thankfully she’s breathing, but her eyes are closed. “Buzz!”

“Ah, just hold on,” she whimpers loudly, like she’s fighting a demon inside her. I just hope that demon isn’t more effects of brain trauma. The way she’s holding her head tells me it’s exactly that. God, I can’t lose her.

“I can’t ‘hold on’ if you need help,” I argue. I have no idea if I need to get her to a hospital or what is going on with her, but I’m worried as fuck.

“I remember,” she blurts out, but I’m not sure if I hear her correctly. I fumble with my hold on her as my feet stumble beneath me. We’re a hot fucking mess.

Finally I just kneel on the ground and let her sit on my lap, which makes her stop shaking. Looking into her eyes, I see Buzz, my Buzz. I have seen that look so many God damn times, but nothing compares to it in this moment. “You remember what, sweetheart?” I wonder, trying to bite my cheeks from smiling too soon. I want to wait until she tells me before I get too excited and ruin her break-through moment.

“You… and… us,” she stammers with water pooling up in her eyes. For fuck’s sake she’s making me emotional. I have a feeling she doesn’t remember everything - like the shit that happened with Chase - but clearly she remembers enough.

“Buzz, there was no ‘us’ unfortunately,” I confess, still holding onto her so she won’t slip off me. But fuck I wish there was.

Her eyes roll as she smirks playfully. God, I missed that smile - her smile. “Sky, there was always an ‘us’ and there always will be,” she poetically tells me.

After hearing that, all I want to do is kiss her again, but I can’t. Glancing towards the street behind her I notice a pack of guys including Alex, Benny, and Sam approaching us with baseball gloves of their own in their hands. They might as well be wolves; Alex looks like he’s about to tear me to shreds.
