Alex awoke to find himself back in Elena's quarters though he was no longer seated in a chair and was instead laying on the bed with a wet towel over his head.
Blinking a few times, he tried to make sense of what was happening but found himself alone in the room.
He massaged his temples as he recalled his conversation with Nyx.
It had been aggravating, to say the least, but it helped to let him know that he had made the right choice in not allowing his entire life to be controlled by Them.
Unfortunately, he paid a steep price to learn this as he closed his eyes, realizing that Nyx had indeed kept to Their word about erasing his memories.
His memories of high school from the first day to the last were gone, with nary a sign that they ever once existed.
All he knew now was that he had gone to high school and graduated at some point.
