Play me a memory
*****
Everything was slowly getting back to normal. Well, as normal as things could get. I had developed a new routine where I would visit Daniel everyday after school for as long as I could before going home to re-watch everything Elliot had given me, hoping it would trigger some sort of memory. It hadn't. But something had changed. I had started getting fuzzy visions. Everything was dark but my mind would spiral for a few seconds before it passed. Things everyone would say were suddenly feeling so familiar. Call it deja vu.
"How we doing on this bright, happy morning?" Jacob asked throwing his arm around my shoulders leading me to my locker.
"Absolutely brilliant, what about yourself?" I replied as I spotted the girls with Elliot. Elliot grinned as he saw me approach, greeting me with a kiss to the forehead, replacing Jacobs arm with his own.
"Any plans for tonight?" Sira asked looking between us.
"Not that I know of" Alyssa shrugged leaning against Jacob. I looked up at them guilty.
"I'm going to see Daniel and then I have an upload scheduled" I sighed. "It just need to be recorded, it shouldn't take long at all." I quickly added.
"That's fine. We'll pop round to yours and then we'll take it from there?" Jacob asked looking at Elliot who gave him a curt nod before we went our separate ways. When lunch rolled around everyone was around settled at our usual table.
"What's wrong?" I asked taking a seat noticing the sudden stop in whispers.
"Nothing" Sira smiled continuing to play with her food. Side eyes were passed between the group before Jacob finally opened his mouth.
"There was once a man named Dave" confusion contoured my face as he finished his sentence.
"Who found a hooker in a cave" Alyssa added staring me. I looked between them as if they were crazy. Maybe I was the crazy one.
"She was ugly as shit" Elliot laughed lowly adding on.
"Missing one tit" Sira finished staring at me. Not just her, the entire table fell silent staring at me. I replayed their words in my head before the words stumbled out of my mouth.
"But think of all the money he saved" Elliot broke out into a grin pulling me closer.
"What the hell was that?" I questioned. "and why on Earth do I know that?". Elliot let out a loud laugh laying a kiss into my hair.
