Kayla was doing a concert for a charity event so people were able to see it in person and online.

"Okay guys so this is the last song and it's a new song. It's the first time I'm ever singing it and I hope you guys enjoy it. It's called Amnesia" Kayla spoke to the crowd. Her guitarist Luke started plucking the strings on his guitar.

"I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted

I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted

And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine

Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?

When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?

Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?

If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all

I remember the day you told me you were leaving

I remember the make-up running down your face

And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them

Like every single wish we ever made

I wish that I could wake up with amnesia

And forget about the stupid little things

Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you

And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all

The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone

I'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel alone

And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around

It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on

It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long

It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?

If what we had was real, how could you be fine?

'Cause I'm not fine at all

I remember the day you told me you were leaving

I remember the make-up running down your face

And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them

Like every single wish we ever made

I wish that I could wake up with amnesia

And forget about the stupid little things

Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you

And the memories I never can escape

If today I woke up with you right beside me

Like all of this was just some twisted dream

I'd hold you closer than I ever did before

And you'd never slip away

And you'd never hear me say

I remember the day you told me you were leaving

I remember the make-up running down your face

And the dreams you left behind you didn't need them

Like every single wish we ever made

I wish that I could wake up with amnesia

And forget about the stupid little things

Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you

And the memories I never can escape

'Cause I'm not fine at all

No, I'm really not fine at all

Tell me this is just a dream

'Cause I'm really not fine at all" when she sang the last note she realized she had years running down her face. She knew the camera that was broadcasting live most likely zoomed in on her. "Thank you guys" she told the crowd them walked off stage.

Little did she know that the person she wrote the song about was watching at home.

When Lauren heard about Kayla's online concert she instantly grabbed her laptop and purchased her online ticket to watch at home.

The day of the concert Lauren logged on to the website a few minuets before it started waiting patiently for the concert to start. It was an acoustic show which was always Lauren's favorite to watch.

When Kayla came out a small smile formed on Lauren's lips.

When the show was almost over Kayla announced a new song called Amnesia. Lauren was a bit excited to hear it.

Lauren noticed how much passion and emotion Kayla had put into it. Then Lauren noticed something.

"I remember the day you told me you were leaving" Kayla sang the words to the chords and Lauren knew it was about the day she left her.

Lauren felt her heart break when she noticed Kayla had tears rolling down her face.

"If today I woke up with you right beside me

Like all of this was just some twisted dream

I'd hold you closer than I ever did before

And you'd never slip away

And you'd never hear me say"

The camera zoomed in on Kayla when she sang the bridge. There were tears, and hurt in her eyes which made Lauren not only feel bad but her shed a lot more tears then she was.

When the show was over Lauren closed her laptop and whipped her tears away with the back of her hand. When she did so she missed the way Kayla would whip her years away for her.

"Lauren you okay?" Xavier asked peeking his head into Lauren's bedroom door.

"Yea...just saw Tfios again. It's nothing I'm fine" she lied. The boy nodded and closed the door.

Lauren walked over to her desk opening on of the side drawers pulling out the bullet necklace Kayla had given her before she went on her first tour.

She played with the bullet with her fingers and remembering all the times they shared together.
