I (Cindy) was born in Derry, Ireland. I loved going every summer, but instantly I had to forget everything about it. I could never go back. I had lived there competing in a lot of competitions, one in particular I had taken third place and another kid took first. His name was Damian McGinty. Our parents became good friends and we hung out almost everyday. The worst day of my life came when I was 11 years old, it was summer and I can almost remember it play by play. My dad called us down and said we were moving. I thought it was only a little ways, like to Dublin. My dad didn't mean that, he meant America. Colorado, to be exact. Telling Damian, my best friend of now five years, was so hard for me to do. We exchanged everything! His phone number, address, email everything. I gave him my new address, phone number, basically any way we could stay in touch. The day I moved was the hardest. I cried and he hugged me and said we'd keep in touch. At least that’s what we thought...
Here’s more still in Cindy's Point of view I had lived there for 5 months now. I had gone to school and met new friends. One told me her dad was a music producer. I was smart. I had always wanted to be a singer. It was on mine and Damian's bucket list. she told me the only way I could do it was to forget everything about my past. I slowly forgot everything. Slowly but surely me and Damian stopped talking. We grew apart and we finally broke apart, and I permanently forgot my old best friend and everything about Ireland.

Cindy’s POV- 7 years later
"Oh my gosh that concert was amazing" I whispered to my best friend Laura, she was the one I resorted to after Kylie (the one with the producer dad) died. We had gone to this group's concert for almost 4 yrs straight. They were called Celtic Thunder. They were a group of five men who I loved but most of al,l I loved one by the name of Damian McGinty. He looked so familiar, yet I couldn't remember from where. We went to meet and greets and he said how I looked like someone he used to know but he didn't even know if she was still alive. He handed me his number and said they were having a break from tour and maybe we could go somewhere fun. I gladly took it and let him leave. On the ride home I ran through my brain trying to think who he was. I couldn't think of anyone! When we got home, Laura jumped out, thanked everyone, and ran home. I walked inside dazed. I climbed into bed and that’s when I started getting texts.

Damian’s POV
She looked so familiar. Where did I see her from? I immediately gave her my number and she gave me hers. I don't know what I was thinking, but I did. "Oh! Someone has a girlfriend“ Paul walked by singing. I punched him in the arm "Ouch! What was that for?" He asked. We headed on the bus. Sharon congratulated us and Paul had to ruin the moment. "Sharon, Damian has a girlfriend!" I punched his arm harder than I did last time. I got really bored so I decided to text her. We texted back and fourth all night. I asked her if tomorrow she wanted to go around and give me a tour. She replied yes. Looked like a date for McGinty! We texted more until stupid me fell asleep. I couldn't wait till tomorrow.

Cindy’s POV- Cakey helped me think of this update. Thanks Cakey.
I woke up late in the morning. Almost 11:00am, and threw on my fav jean shorts and stripped sleeveless shirt. It was about 60 degrees today but supposed to reach 70. I put my hair in braids and a little make up but not much. I wrote my mom a note that I was going out to town and I had my cell. I walked out the garage and walked down the street. I found the hotel easily. It was the one hotel my grandparents always stayed at. When I got there Damian was in the lobby. He was wearing shorts and a t-shirt. He looked so perfect compared to me. We decided to go get ice cream, so we walked and talked… "What made you want to be a singer?" I asked. "My friend and I from a long time ago had that on our bucket list. We loved to sing and be together." He looked kind of sad so I dropped it. But the thought was racing in my mind. I had a friend that I made that promise with! I thought for a minute that it was him. But could it really be?

I had to think long and hard about this. MEmories started flying back at me like rushing bullets. I got overwhelmed and started crying. Damian wrapped me in his arms and we sat on the sand for a while quietly. He asked me gently if I wanted to get everything off my chest. I started slowly "Yes, I did live in Ireland about 7 years ago. When I moved here i had to leave one of the greatest friends I had ever made. When I moved here me and him talked less and less. When I moved here I also made a new friend but after about after 2 years she died."
I started crying again. "you dont have to go on if it makes you too upset" he said gently But i trusted him and kept going. "I forgot everything about Ireland because it made me think about bad memories from there out. When I first saw you sing, you reminded me of that old friend. My friend and I made the same bucket list promise before i left." I started thinking how he could be that boy but it was highly doubtful. All the sudden he took his arms off me and stood up. "CINDY! I'm him im that boy!" "what" i asked "Its me Damian can't you see? I remember, your favorite color is pink, your deadly afraid of spiders, you love singing, you won 3rd place at the same compitition i did, your moms name is Lisa, want me to keep going?" I stood up and started crying. He started apologizing and got a sad look on his face. "I didnt mean to make you cry again." he said "Damian these are happy tears after we stopped sending things to eachother that 2nd year i thought wed never speak again." "Im sorry you know kinda joined a group and got popular." I laughed so hard my stomach started hurting. He pulled me into a hug and we stood there for a long time. I could tell he didnt want to ever loose me again and neither did i

Damians POV
I was so happy to finally be able to see her again. When we were 7 I had the biggest crush on. O who am I kidding I still have the biggest crush on her. I couldn't forget her for all those years in between. After all what guy after 7 years still remembers a girls fav color, what she is afraid of ect? She spoke up "So um......." I laughed and grabbed her hand. We started walking towards the hotel. We passed the hotel and started walking to her house. It was getting dark. Her mum was standing in the kitchen chopping up things to make Irish stew. I could still taste her mums stew in my mouth it was a famous recipe that my mum and cindys shared before they moved but when her family moved my mum stopped making it.
Cindys POV: "Hi Cynthia" ever since we moved here from Ireland gradually my mum started calling me by my real name. I hated my real name and wanted to be called Cindy because it didnt sound so strict but mum had to call me Cynthia... "Hi Mum" "How was your day?" I pulled Damian over. She looked at him like something was bothering her. "Mum do you remember the McGinty's?" "Well ummm no not really..." "Mum singing, from Ireland, we were best friends." It was like all the sudden then a light bulb clicked. "O my gosh!!!" She glanced at him "Damian you've grown up so much I hardly recognized you." "Hello Mrs.T!" My mum was going crazy and Damian was being a very kind gentleman. "Hows your mother? Your brother and sister? Conor? You?" "Im doing great, The whole fam is just doing amazing, I'm living Cindy and my dream of being singers." "Thats so good We've been sad since you and cindy lost contact." I glared at my mum for saying that she made him feel all bad again. She instaintly changed the subject. "Well Damian would you like to stay for dinner?" He was such a gentleman. "Well I hate to be a intruder." "NO NOT AT ALL" she said "ok then Thank you." "dinner will be ready in a hour." I said ok and Damian and i ran up to my room

cindys pov
I loved my family but ever since we moved here from Ireland all of them lost their accents i was the on member who could lose it for my life. I thought while we were walking up the stairs i was starting to have a crush on Damian
Damos pov
When we finally got up to her room there were posters of me on the walls. I laughed and she turned red. "Its not everyday you have a friend who happens to be famous come into your room." she said I laughed even harder. We talked for a long time and laughed at eachother. It was like the old times i missed. after the time was up her mum yelled up. I raced her down and she pushed me and won. Her mum made the Irish stew just how i remembered it. this was too good i thought it was a dream. I remembered how when she moved it was like she had packed my heart too and now i just got it back.
Cindys pov When we got down everyone was sitting the second Damian ran around the corner my brother jumped up and ran and jumped on Damian s back. Damian laughed . "So you missed me?" he asked "ya" I laughed knowing my brother was only 7 when we moved and he remembered him. I then introduced Damian to the newest member of my family my other bro who was only four. Damian knew my sis but she was 21 now and lived with her boyfriend. After Dinner we ate the best apple pie my mum made and I helped clear dishes. Damian went with my bro to play footy outside.
Damians pov
I thought this night couldnt get any better apparently i was wrong. When I went inside Cindy took me back to her room. She told me the best news yet. She was going back to visit her gma that she hadnt seen in 7 yrs in only two weeks. I was going back in two weeks. The even better news was she was staying the whole summer. I couldnt help but lean in and kiss her. She didnt even pull back one inch.

Damos pov Sharon couldnt pick a better time to call. we kissed for 2 seconds and my phone rang. Cindy pulled away and i answered it. Cindy sat there while Sharon was asking me where i had been and where i was now. I told her i met up with a old friend and she calmed down. She told me 12:00 tops to be back at the hotel. i dont know why we were on a "break" and didnt have to do anything but i answered nicely and said ok. since it was only9:00 we decided to go on a walk. Cindy talked first. "so im out of the blue being shipped to my gmas house when i havent been there in 7 yrs?" "ya isnt it exciting?" "Whatd you set up with my mother?" "what do you mean?" i acted like i didnt know "Damian I havent been there in 7 years! Now all the sudden my mum wants me to go back?" I snickered

"your grandma called my mum with the idea.i didnt fully remember what you looked like the only thing i knew what you looked like was the yearly pic you sent to your gma. thats why i didnt know it was you i was talking to at meet and greets and hung out with today till earlier."

Damians POV Before we knew it, the time was 11:59. We got up and she started walking with me to the hotel. I was assuming she didn't want to leave because she walked into the hotel with me. I offered " If the rest of the group is up would you like to meet them?" she was quiet for a couple of seconds then stuttered out "Of course" We went up the elevator to rooms 1355, 1356, 1357, and 1358. Cindy questioned me "Can i ask why you guys are on the top floor?" I laughed and answered "Paul insisted on being on the 13th floor, he said he was worried about the hurricanes." "Um he does know theres no hurricanes in Colorado right?" "Ya we know..." I busted out laughing. We both laughed together and i grabbed my key to room 1355 out of my pocket. Paul was the first one to the door. They were all in there great... " OOOO Damian who's this girl?" She reached out her hand "Im Cindy nice to meet you" She sounded so sweet Keith walked in "SO where'd Damian pick you up?" " Keith we've known each other since.... a long time ago" he acted surprised" O i didnt know you could keep a friend that long." Keith busted up laughing and Cindy and i stood there while he went insane. Ryan was the next one in but he was polite. "Why Hello" "hi" Then George came in giving her a famous hug. We all stood around when there was a knock on the door, It was Sharon. We all greeted her. She walked over to Cindy . "hello." "Hi im Cindy" "I'm Sharon i hope the guys were being on their best behavior for you." Cindy laughed and after her so did everyone else.

Damians pov I tried to stay with Cindy as long as I could but Ryan asked her if she wanted to go meet Zara. The other 3 guys went to go watch a football game on the tele. That left me and Sharon on the couch. "Is this the girl your mum set you up with?" "yes" "How do you know her if she lives here" I told Sharon the whole run down of the story. When Cindy and Ryan returned they also brought Zara with. Ryan and Zara walked in hand in hand. They had been dating for about a month now. Cindy walked over to the couch with me and sat down and laid her head on my shoulder. I assumed she was getting tired it was about 1 am anyways. She instantly fell asleep. I didn't remember her mum telling her a certain time to be home so I just let her sleep. Sharon got up saying she was tired. Ryan and Zara came and sat next to us. Ryan whispered a snickering " How can I o how can I tell them this is not a puppy love....." "Ryan if Cindy wasn't asleep on my shoulder i would get up and punch you so hard." I laughed. Keith came back out and being his strange self laid down on the ground.
30 min later
Ryan and Zara fell asleep . Keith was still laying on the floor counting all the dots on the ceiling. It was really funny considering after about 20 dots he would mess up and have to restart. Cindy flinched a little and then woke up. "what time is it?" "1:34 sweetie." Keith Screamed at me "OH MY GOSH YOU MADE ME MESS UP AGAIN DAMIAN!!!" Cindy laughed her cute little laugh and i burst out laughing. Keith didnt think it was funny though her kicked me. Cindy got up and said she better call her mom. I said ok and she went in the other room.

Cindys POV I couldn't believe that I fell asleep. I walked in the other room and dialed the all to familiar phone number. My mum was a writer and would stay up till 2:30 writing. The phone rang three times and then my mum picked up "hello" "Hi mom it's Cin" "Hi, Where are you" "I'm at Damian's hotel, I'm so sorry mum I fell asleep." "O honey don't be sorry, As long as you guys arent in trouble it's alright." "were fine mum when do you want me home" this is the part where I was glad I had left the room so Damian couldn't hear. " Honey don't worry you stay as long as your welcomed, it's your first boyfriend." I think my mom was going crazy or was on drugs or something but thats what she said.... I said bye and we hung up. I walked in the other room. Keith was snoring on the floor and Damian was silently laughing. I walked in and told him my mum was fine if i just stayed the night. He said ok. We talked for a little bit but soon fell asleep again.

Damians POV
Cindy walked in from calling her mom and laid on my lap. The night went by quickly, When I woke up it was 10:00 am. I decided to let Cindy sleep but Paul aparently thought differently. He came in the room and shouted "CINDY WAKE UP!!!!!" she woke up and we decided to go out to breakfast. We went to a place name I-hop (just for you jess). When we left I walked Cindy home. The door was locked so she opened the garage door.

Cindys POV we walked in the house and it was really quiet. I ran around turning on lights. When i got to my room i screamed. Damian came running. On my bed was sitting my best friend Mallory who i had not seen for 2 years because she left out of state for college. "MALLORY!" "Hi Cindy, how are you?" "I'm good but why are you here, not that i dont want you here..." "Your mom told me you were going to Ireland for the summer and if i wanted to see you i better come visit now so i got on todays plane and headed up. Who's this?" she said gesturing towards Damian. "This is Damian." Damian shook her hand like a gentleman and then spoke "Why don't I come back later and get you girls for dinner. Let you two hang out." "ok" we both answered. Damian quickly hugged me and kissed me. Every time we kissed it got more magical. He left. "How have you been Mal? What have you been up to. tell me everything nothing left out." "I've been up to missing you so much and worrying bout you. But I finally got a boyfriend. His name is Kyle. He's coming out tomorrow so you can meet him plus he's never been here so ya." "o my gosh that's awesome im so happy for you" "ya but aparently im not the only one, You and Damian you guys an item?" "Ya we kinda are." I couldn't believe i was getting to say that after all the years i had known him. "Wanna go get some ice cream? I brought my car i parked across the street so you wouldn't know." "sure that sounds good." We went out to Mallory's car. She was walking slowly. I ran to the car. I was crossing the street as I saw it coming...
Damian's POV
I was setting up for the preformence we had before we left this place for Ireland. I was doing my sound check as my phone rang. "Hello?" "Mr. Damian McGinty?" I responded "This is he." "I'm from the Parker Adventist Hospital, I have a young lady here that said i needed to call you we have a Cindy in here that was just sent in to the ER do you know her?" "Yes mam" "Cindy was hit by a car and is Unconscious we are talking a look at her and trying to help her now but Mallory was asking you to come down." "Ok can you tell her ill be there in 10 min." "ok sir drive safely." "will do" I hung up the phone and started to head towards the door. But the lads couldnt wait to ask what happened. "Who was that?" asked Ryan "The hospital i have to leave Cindys hurt will you tell Sharon?" "ok" I ran out the door and drove the fastest i think i ever have. I got there and parked then ran in the hospital. Mallory saw me and ran up. "what happened" "I dont know i gave Cindy my keys and she walked ahead of me she walked out to cross the street and then i heard car tires screeching and saw Cindy compleatly still I started crying and called 911." She was crying i hugged her and told her it was gonna be ok. She told me the rest of the story. The driver was arrested, they think he was driving under the influence. "Can i see her?" "Ya she's in room 2 in the ICU" "Is she that bad?" All Mallory could do was shake her head yes. and then she said "Shes in bandages and casts and they have a tube for her to breathe and ivs." "Will you be ok if i go to see her?" "Ill be fine. Her mom and dad are on their way and so is Laura" "OK ill be back." I walked down what seemed to be a long hallway I opened the door to her room and stopped cold i couldnt believe what i saw.
