Zayn's P.O.V:

"Who are you?" The girl lying on the hospital bed, asks. I look at her in shock and tighten my grip on her hand.

"Are you okay?" I ask her but she removes her hand from mine, scooting away from me. I notice her actions and look at her in confusion.

"I don't know you. Who are you? Why am I here? Where is my family?" She swarms me up with questions and I take a step back from her, my heart breaking into pieces. What I'm thinking can't be true.

"Do you remember what happened to you?" I ask her but she shakes her head, with tears in her eyes. She looks completely confused and terrified. I look at the doctor and he steps forward.

"Do you remember anything before coming here?" The doctor asks her, as a tear escapes from her eyes.

"I confronted my best friend and boyfriend. They cheated on me, then my best friend slapped me and then.. then, I don't remember anything." She says, slightly sniffling. My heart feels as if it stopped beating. I look at her in shock and then back at the doctor.

"What the hell is she saying? What is wrong with her?!" I yell at the doctor, when I notice her getting terrified. She stares at me with a scared look.

"Mr. Malik, please calm down." The doctor says but I storm off the room, shutting the door behind me really hard. As soon as I come out of her hospital room, I break into tears.

"Mr. Malik, can I talk to you for a while?" The doctor asks me and I nod, wiping away my tears. He takes me to a room and shows me some CT scans of her.

"Look, she is going to be fine. It's normal, she was saved from dying. She has lost her memory. It can happen. She'll get her memory back, but you have to wait." He informs me and my heart drops in the stomach. I stare at him in shock, without even blinking.

"For how long do I have to wait?" I ask him after a while.

"It can take days, weeks, months or maybe years." He says, with an appologetical look and my mouth wide opens, before breaking into tears again.

"Did you inform her family?" He asks me but I shake my head. He tells me to inform her parents and I nod. I don't know what I will tell them. That their daughter lost her memory and just woke up from coma? I walk back to her room and stare at her from the door way. She is lying on the bed with tears continously flowing from her eyes. Tears escape my eyes as well when I see her in this condition.

Five hours ago:

"I love you. I love you, Melanie Samantha Philips. I'm in fucking love with you!" I cry in front of her. She takes a step back from me in shock. Her mouth opens to say something, but no words come out. I fall on my knees in front of her, lowering my head. She starts crying again and keeps taking steps back.

"I...I.." she tries to speak but fails. She is standing far away from me now. Suddenly ear piercing honks and shrieking of tires can be heard and I slightly tilt up my head to see her but she turns around and the next thing I know is I hear her scream. My eyes widen and I stare at her body which flungs forward and lands on the floor, hit by a Range Rover. Everything seems as if it stops for a while. My mind stops working when I see the horror in front of me. I quickly get up and run towards her. She lies in the little pond of blood, with her eyes closed and hardly breathing. I bend down to her level and take her body in my arms.

"Mel, look at me. Open your eyes, open your eyes please. Please, Mel, please." I cry, touching her cheeks to wake her up. Her eyes slightly peel open and a tear falls from them as she lies helplessly in my arms.

"Z-Zayn, I.. I am sorry, I..I-" before she can complete her sentence, her head falls in my arms. I cry, while hugging her body.

"I love you, please wake up." I cry and press my lips on hers. Soon a young boy steps out of the car and rushes towards us.

"Oh shit! I'm so sorry, I..I..I didn't mean to hit her. I'm sorr-"

"FUCKING SHUT UP AND HELP ME! I need to get her to the hospital!" I yell at him and he vigorously nods, running towards his car and opens the back door. I carry her bridal style and get in his car's back seats. I don't even know who this person is, but all I care about is her and I need to save her.

"Start the fucking car!" I yell at him and he nods getting terrified. He quickly starts driving and I lower my head to look at her beautiful figure which is now covered in blood, lying in my arms. I can't lose her. She's my everything.

-----

I search for my phone in my pockets when I realize that I don't have a phone right now. I curse under my breathe and walk to the reception, asking if they could let me call. I quickly make a call to Mum, since I don't remember Melanie's parents' number.

"Mum, there's an emergency. Melanie is in the hospital, can you please inform her parents?" I say on the verge of crying. She starts panicking, making me panick as well and I hung up the call because I don't want to start crying again. I seat myself on one of the seats in the hospital lobby, waiting for her family to come.

Looks like fate doesn't want us to be happy. If I hadn't confessed my love for her then she wouldn't have gotten hit by a car.

After a while, I hear loads of noises when I lift up my head from my hands to see my family as well as Melanie's mother along with Louis, standing in front of me.

"Where is she? What happened to her?" Melanie's mother, panicks with a worried and scared look on her face.

"She..she got hit by a car." I inform her as a tear escapes my eyes. Her mother gasps and disbalances, when Louis quickly steps forward and helps her sit on one of the seats. I quickly leave the hospital and run outside, with tears in my eyes. I try to find cigarrette in my pockets but find none. Getting irritated, I kick the trash can in front of me and rub my face.

"Is she going to be alright, Zayn?" I hear my sister's voice from behind. I sigh and lower my head, when I feel her hand on my shoulder. She comes and stands in front of me, lifting my head up.

"What is wrong?" Waliyha asks me, with tears in her eyes which are threatening to fall any minute.

"She..she doesn't remember me, Wal. She doesn't remember anything." I break down, wrapping my arms around her. She tries to calm me and pulls away with a confused look on her face.

"What do you mean?" She asks, narrowing her eye brows.

"She doesn't fucking know who I am!" We hear Louis yell from behind us. We turn around and see a very hurt and furious Louis.

"She doesn't remember me, she doesn't remember us. She doesn't remember anything!" He yells which makes Waliyha more confused.

"What are you both talking about?!" She raises her voice at us getting frustrated.

"She lost her memory, Waliyha. She doesn't know who we are!" I yell and she gasps, taking a step back from me in shock.

I watch her as tears begin to fall from her eyes and she breaks into sobs. She is her best friend, of course she'll be hurt if her best friend has no memory of them together. I step forward and engulf her in my arms, while Louis sits on the bench behind us, with his head in his hands.

"How long will it take for her memory to come back? If she doesn't remember you both, then she might not remember me as well. I want my best friend back, Zayn. I want her back." She cries in my arms and I kiss the top of her head.

"I want her back too, Wal. Everything will be alright, she can't just forget us. We'll help her, yeah?" I say and rest my head on top of hers, as she nods against my chest.

I want her back. I want my Nerdy back at any cost.
