Brian’s POV

Sam and I were dressed and ready to go, I looked at her a final time and had to say, damn she was gorgeous, she wore a tight fitting blue jeans and a nice dark red top showing of some skin on her back and a little cleavage which gave me ideas for later.

“What are you looking at?” She asked and I grinned, “At my beautiful company” I replied with a smirk, holding my arm out for her to hook into.
“Thank you.” She grinned and walked close to me.

“Are you excited to go to Johnny’s bar… must be a weird feeling knowing to go somewhere you have been before, right? Or at least that you remember you have been there before in this case.” Sam corrected and I nodded, it was indeed a weird feeling but also really exciting.
Would I know something? Would some of it trigger more memories?

A knock sounded on our door and we went both towards it, knowing it was Matt to pick us up.
“Hey, perfect you guys are ready.” Matt smiled and his eyes wandered from me to Sam and he nodded his head at her “You look amazing, Sam.” I narrowed my eyes on him, was he always this polite, this son of a bitch?! I didn’t like it!
“Thank you.” Sam smiled back and we followed him towards his car, Selena was sitting in the passenger seat waiting.

Matt drove us for about 15 minutes until he parked into a big parking lot. I looked around and hoped to find something that I would recognize, but nothing. I would have never known that Johnny’s was here.

“Look the others are here already, I knew it.” Matt said and pointed to a black car standing next to his.
“Whose is that?” I asked and he smiled “Zacky’s he got it new couple of weeks ago. BMW, you had one of those, too.” Matt said and I walked closer to the car looking inside, leather seat, all black and silver… nice… really… but like mine?
I had no idea… would I like that? BMW? Well… why not?!

“I bet they are already drinking the third beer or something these fuckers, never can wait for the rest.” Matt said laying his arm around Selena’s shoulders and I did the same with Sam, following behind them.

When I saw the sign of Johnny’s bar I stopped and stared at it for a couple of minutes “This is it… yes, from my memory.” I nodded and a smile came over my face.
I closed my eyes thinking how it looked inside, would I know any of it?

“A pool table… beside the bar… there was a small side room where… we wrote songs?” I peeked my eyes open and met Matt’s stunned face.

“Right, we wrote songs there, while getting drunk… with our fake ID’s… Johnny the owner knew us after a while and didn’t give a fuck… he liked our music and playing around, so he let us… to the point where Johnny puked all over the pool table, which really wasn’t funny anymore.” Matt chuckled and I remembered that scene, now that he said it…

“I know it… I remember” I said excitedly and now Matt, Sam and Selena crowded around me looking as excited as I felt.
“You remember us?” Matt asked again and my face fell… no… I didn’t… just this scene, it was a birthday party, it got out of hand, Johnny drank Long Island Icetea, we told him to stop, but he always said he could handle it, he could handle it… after a while he went completely white… and then puked all over the table… and we were thrown out.

“No, I remember what happened that evening and I knew Johnny and we were there… but I don’t know anything else, not any other scene with us involved.” I said a little defeated and Sam shook her head “Babe, that’s awesome… maybe more is coming! Let’s get inside, maybe that will help you. Don’t look so upset, that’s more then you got during the last days, don’t give up yet.” She placed a small kiss on my lips and got me back with that.
“Right… you are right. That’s the first scene at all that I could remember from my old life that is a beginning!” I said finally and Matt brought us into the Bar.

About an hour later we were seated in our “rehearsal room” all having a beer in hand and the guys were talking about exactly that birthday scene I remembered and while they were talking more memories came back to me, but only from that evening and only slight details, like what I drank or what presents were exchanged, so pretty much, nothing important.

“Yo Haner” Jimmy stood beside me and I nodded at him “Hey.” I looked around if Sam was near, but she stood at the side talking to Matt and Selena.
“I thought about tomorrow, we will pick you about around 9, that okay?” Jimmy asked and I nodded.
“Sure, why not…” I met Sam’s eyes and the realization struck me, it felt so normal to tell him yes, we could go, let’s have a man talk, or whatever he wanted to do with me and set up the date I planned, but I couldn’t!

I couldn’t leave Sam’s side, it never bothered me before, not really, but right now it did and more then I could have imagined. I couldn’t even plan something for her or prepare anything, because I had to take her along!
This situation sucked ass! And I hated it, I hated that this happened to me, and when I finally wanted to take action in this fucked up situation I couldn’t, cause this stupid curse was ruining it another way!

“Dude, calm down, if 9 is too early we can get you at 10, but don’t freaking crush the glass in your hand” Jimmy said and I frowned, what was he talking about?!
“I can’t leave with you tomorrow.” I said between clenched teeth and Jimmy frowned “Why is that?”
“Fuck, I can’t leave Sam’s side… not for more than a couple of feet. I don’t know the exact distance, but in her home it was like from her bedroom to the front door then it stopped, well or… from her front door to the other side of the street but then at some point it stopped, I can’t leave her… I can’t come with you and help you set this up” I sighed and Jimmy chuckled.

“Dude, no problem… You don’t have to set anything up. I got everything under control. I had other plans for the morning... If that’s the case that you can’t leave her side for that far… well fuck… then we gotta make a game plan on how my idea can be still executed, because if we wanna do this right, and with right I mean the Jimmy-way, we have to get my idea executed. Let me think… okay, we don’t want her to know… but she has to come along… wait a second.” Jimmy vanished from my side and walked over to Matt, he whispered something in his ear, they both nodded and Jimmy came back.

“Got it settled, don’t worry.” Jimmy said and pointed to my beer “Another one?” He asked and I nodded, what is it with this guy… he was such a freak… but in a good way… I guessed.

“Man, I miss you.” Jimmy said quietly and I frowned, what? Did I just miss something?
“What do you mean?” I asked and Jimmy sighed.
“I mean you, the old you… the one that remembers me… its really frustrating, you know? I can see how you eye me and know that I’m different than the most, I get that look often… but you know what, that’s the same look you gave me when we first met and got into a fight.” Jimmy said and shoved me suddenly away from him and I stumbled, what the hell was wrong with this guy?!

“What the fuck is wrong with you?” I asked and shoved him back, too. “That’s what you said, exactly” Jimmy said and suddenly a headache started in my brain, it was so painful that I head to put my hands to my head to try and shut it out.

“Fucking hell… what is…” I groaned and Jimmy stood suddenly beside me “Brian? You alright?” He asked concerned and I felt like something wanted to break free in my mind, but it was blocked… it couldn’t and that was hurting like a bitch.

“I don’t… I don’t fucking know!” Jimmy brought me to a chair and I leaned my head in my hands and then finally felt a small hand on my cheek and I tried to open my eyes knowing it was Sam.

“Breath, babe… let it go… it’s okay.” I tried to follow her instruction but it was hard, the pain only slowly went away… but after a while it was gone.

“Should we go?” Sam asked and I shook my head “No… I don’t know… but something tells me that was important… I can’t describe it… it’s weird.” I said and Sam nodded, I didn’t know if I made any sense right now… but I saw Jimmy still staring at me and I bet he knew what I was talking about!
