Miranda was lucky she had even made it to the bed.  She had been so upset with herself she didn’t even think that she needed help getting dressed and back to bed.  It had to have been a dose of adrenaline that did it for her, or that she had plenty of furniture to lean on.<br/><br/>Miranda was lost in her tears and didn’t feel Brettly climb into bed with her.  In fact she was not aware of him until he pulled her into his arms.  She had so many tears built up inside that she just let loose holding onto Brettly until she was finally cried out.  “I should have known that being naked with me after all this time would have excited you, it’s just not fair to you and I am sorry for that.<br/><br/>They laid there in companionable silence until he started talking to her she started to wipe off her eyes as she listened.  He was right of course, but she couldn’t help blame herself it was hard not to.  “I should have just obeyed you in the very beginning and not work this job.”  Even then she was not sure exactly what has happened to her, but she knew it was because of her job.  “I think I am going quit my job.”  Miranda said which would probably surprise Brettly because she had loved her job so much.<br/><br/>Miranda had finally calmed down and just snuggled in with Brettly and finally fell asleep.  Miranda knew that Brettly would probably get up and leave her to do what he needed to do and that was ok with her because she at least had him for a few minutes.<br/><br/>Over the next few days Brettly was very attentive to her needs and she was really trying hard to use her walker, even though Brettly wanted to carry her every where.  She did allow him to carry her down the stairs because she was a little nervous about walking down the stairs.  He had made her a light lunch and served it too her in the library so she could read.  She had wanted to stay in the bed and he told her she was not loosing herself in the bed.  He would not let her do that to herself.  Everyday she seemed to remember a few things, but today had been a off day and she had actually forgotten about Brettly when she woke up.  But he had been very patient with her and helped her get through it once again.  She asked him for a journal so she could keep track of things she had learned that she had forgotten.<br/><br/>()()()()()())()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()()<br/><br/>Gracie had been on top of everything that had been going on with Miranda.  Even though Miranda had not wanted anything to do with her over the last couple of years, she had at least been kept up to date from Marcie, Miranda’s mother.  Of course she had seen Miranda at Charity functions and like the proper lady Miranda was raised to be she had always been polite to her.<br/><br/>Gracie had been making appearances at Brettly’s office to check in with him and had also shown up at the hospital.  She of course had a heart, but then Miranda didn’t deserve Brettly anyway.   Gracie had always been a little jealous Miranda and thought she should have been the one deserving of everything that Miranda had and that was why she enjoyed using Miranda for so long.  Brettly got wind of the game that Gracie was playing and tried for years to get Miranda to un-friend her.  He even went as far as using his attraction for Gracie to show Miranda what Gracie was doing.  Of course he denies his own attraction.<br/><br/>When Gracie got wind of the fact that Miranda had finally been located and that she had lost her memory she knew this would be the perfect opportunity for her to sneak in and take Brettly away from Miranda.  She would make her think that Brettly had never loved her and that he was just with her right now because he felt sorry for her.  She was finally going to get what she wanted, and that was Brettly.  Of course it was all in her mind that Brettly even liked her, but she seems to think he had been flirting with her for years.<br/><br/>Miranda had been home for a few days so she decided she would go over to their house to check up on her.  She put on a sexy low cut red dress and 3 inch heels making herself look wonderful.   She bought a bouquet of her favorite flowers and drove over to her house and knocked on the door.  She was surprised when Alfred never came to the door.  So she rang the bell and knocked again.
