So that was that. Fred worked her magick, used her scientific gadgets and put the lost memories back in my head. At first it was kinda fuzzy, then it was like a damn bursting and flooding my mind with everything I'd lost. It was overwhelming. It was headache inducing. I refrained from grabbing my head as the pain continued to mount. Was this a part

There was a bit of raised voices coming from the kitchen. I glanced over but didn't feel like joining all the anger. I had too much of people yelling at me before I came here, didn't really want to walk into it when it had nothing to do with me. I went back to staring at the empty fireplace. I wondered if we should actually look for some wood. I was thinking about it for a while when I heard the door close behind me. I leaned over the arm of the chair to see that Kennedy had left the kitchen too. She must have needed some air

I sat there, holding my head, just trying to center myself. To make some sense of all this jumbled mess that Fred had just shoved back into my head. I could hear the waves crashing far off in the distance and it was soothing. Being outside, in the quiet, without all the stress and frustration and being away from 2 versions of your girlfriend from your own dimension? Priceless.

Willow.

I sighed again. Okay, I wasn't supposed to be thinking about her. I was supposed to be focusing on these memories that my headache seemed to be blocking still. But, it's hard not to think about Willow. Not only is she my girlfriend in the other world, but 2 versions of her here. One previously in a bikini and now one wearing tight leather. You'd be distracted too.

Anyway.

So, I started rubbing my temples, in attempt to ease some of this pressure. My eyes closed tight, I didn't see anyone walk up, but I heard the footsteps and felt them sit beside me.

"You okay? I mean.. well no.. but is there something I can do?"Marissa

She looked up at me and I could see her searching for some sort of answer, then she blinked. I didn't know what was happening, but I was worried. My brow furrowed as her eyes darted. They were erratic like she was at a club trying to avoid the strobes. My heart was racing, I wanted to reach out to her. To kiss her. I didn't even know what she was going through, but I wanted to help her. I wanted her to feel that no matter what it was, no matter what she was feeling or not feeling that I was going to be okay.

Her expression changed, her brow furrowed and I could see the pain in her eyes. She just kept looking at me, I didn't want to look away. I couldn't drop her gaze. If this was going to be the last time I looked at her, I didn't want it to end.

"I'm...sorry Marissa."

The look on my face softened. It was still full of concern, but it was different.

"I'm sorry."She shook her stare off of me and turned towards the beach. She curled up into a ball on the steps beside me. Her head lay atop her knees and I knew she was being brave. I

She put her arm around me and I flinched. I didn't mean to, but I felt vulnerable right now.

And lost. So completely lost. Which technically I was. On this island. Never going home.

I didn't want her seeing me like this.

Or anybody for that matter.

"Kennedy, don't be sorry. If anything I should be sorry. I made this so important. I just want you to be okay. No matter what Kennedy, I want you to be happy. Right now, I am worried, but I know you are strong. I know you are going to be okay. It is just hard. That demon isn't making any of this easy. Not for any of us. I mean you saw that other Fred right?"I sighed, lifting my head up, staring out across the island
