so they knew who she was, didnt they? why didnt she remember?
    "Tracy," a nurse whispered "Ahh good you are awake, would you like something to eat or drink?"  "Just water please." Tracy croaked back, she felt the tears welling up in the back of her eyes, she knew that there was something important that she had to remember, but right now it hurt to think. 
    The nurse came back with some cold water for Mary.  "Try to relax hun," she said "The doctor will be back in the morning and will talk to you further, but for now all we know is you have amnesia, whether it will be short term or long term is something that we will have to look into."
    "Amnesia?" Mary paused, "Does anyone know who I am?" she asked the nurse with hopefulness. 
    "Yes, that handsome man who was here earlier, his name is Sam, the nurses call him Sexy Sam," She giggled "Sorry, oh he says you where dating. Martha at the hotel you where staying at confirms he knows you. I think the doctor may release you to Sams care in a few days. As long as you stay local enough to be monitored."
    "Sam?" she repeated, thinking to herself,  I remember him from earlier, dark brown eyes, dark hair, freckles.. He was kinda cute! Hmmm dont think I could do much worse.
    "Try to rest Tracy and things will seem better in the morning." The nurse said easing her back onto the pillows and bringing the blanket back up over her and tucking her in like a child. Mary slowly relaxed and drifted of back to sleep.
    Chapter Six
    After what felt like a long week, Dr Moore allowed Sam to take Mary home, it appeared the amnesia was going to be long term, and her memory might never come back. Sam had been fantastic Mary thought, always visiting her, bringing presents, fruit and magazines. He confessed they where going to have their first date together the day that the accident had happened, although Sam didnt admit that it was him who had hit her with his car.
    The day she was to leave the hospital Sam arrived to pick her up and the nurse brought her a wheelchair which Mary laughed at and waved away "I dont need that, I may have no memory but I can still walk, and walking out of here is what I intend to do!" she exclaimed.
    Sam helped her into his car and silently they drove to his place. Mary had nowhere else to go so accepted the offer to stay at his until she was better or for as long as she wanted.  As they pulled up outside the stone cottage Mary couldnt help but be impressed it was a beautiful home. He took her inside where he had a lunch prepared for her. Scones and Jam.
    Showing her to her room he couldnt help but put his arms around her. "I have waited so long to do this Tracy," he put his head against hers "I missed you so much while you where in the hospital." Then he lifted his head looked into her eyes and brought his lips down to hers and gently kissed her, pulling her closer to him. Mary pulled back, then looked at him and kissed him back, for some reason his kisses made her melt. Even though she didnt know him or at least didnt remember she knew she felt good with his lips on hers. Her knees went weak and she pulled back once again, Sam groaned. "Too much too soon Sam" she said as she left the room and headed back to the cosy kitchen with its farmhouse style table and chairs. "Anyways I am hungry Sam so anything else will have to wait" she chuckled and winked at him from across the room.  Sam smiled and joined her at the table. "Do you like your room ok Tracy?" he asked.
    "Sure its ok, Sam," she replied  "but am thinking I may end up sharing yours if you keep kissing me like that!" laughing at the expression on his face Mary picked up another scone and began adding butter and jam to it.
    After they finished eating Sam cleared away the dishes. "Let me help Sam" Mary asked "After all you have done for me."
    "No no Tracy, you go and relax, the livingroom is through there," he said pushing her out of the kitchen "We have sattelite t.v so you go choose something to watch and chill for
