This is my second story, it started out as a one-shot but grow into more as I wrote. I hope you enjoy it, would love to hear your reviews.

Chapter 1

I run through the doors of the hospital as quickly as I can. My heart is beating so hard in my chest that I can feel is pound in my ears, almost blocking out the sounds around me. I don't think I have ever been so afraid in my life, I didn't think it was possible for me to be so scared. But here I am, on the verge of tears and terrified that the two people that mean the most to me in my life were going to die.

"It can't happen, NO, I won't be lifted all alone!" my thoughts scream these words inside my head as I race to the reception desk in the middle of the hospital lobe.

I get to the desk and there is no one behind it at the moment. "Hello, can anyone help me here?" I practically shout as I beat my hands against the counter. That's when a large nurse with skin as dark as Andre's come up to me from behind the counter and speaks in a very board voice. "How can I help you miss?" She says almost as if she is barley awake on her feet.

"I'm looking for Beck Oliver and Cat Valentine, they were brought in here due to a car crash they were in" I say the words and my stomach wants to jump out of my mouth. Just saying the words are almost too painful to express.

"Just one moment dear, let me look them up. Who might you be if I may ask?" she asks as she looks down at her computer and types on the keys. "My name is Jade West, can you tell me if my friends are okay?" I say almost pleading for the answer.

"Sorry, I can't give that information out to you. Right now I can only give information to blood relatives as well as I can only let a blood relative see either of them" she says this so clinically that I instantly want to rage and scream at her for being so insensitive.

"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING? ARE YOU TELLING ME I CAN'T EVEN SEE THEM?" I scream at the top of my lungs, not caring how many people stop and stare at me for yelling at the nurse.

I'm about to keep yelling at the nurse when I hear a voice come from somewhere behind me. "Jade, over here" I look around and I see Cat's older brother, the one she is always telling weird stories about. He's about 22 right now and besides from the fact that he looks a little on the slow side, you wouldn't be able to guess that hes kind of messed up in the head.

I quickly walk over to him to ask if he knows anything about Beck or Cat. "All they told me is that Cat was behind the wheel of the car when it slammed into the lamp post" he says theses words looking very upset just thinking about it. "All I know right now Jade is that their looking after her right now" Cat's brother says as his emotions begin to get the better of him as his voice becomes weak and shaky.

"Okay, where are your parents?" I ask wondering where they could be. "Both my mom and dad are at my aunts house in Seattle right now, I called them and they said they will be back soon" He says as the shaking in his voice only get worse.

I can understand why he's like this. The idea of Cat hurt and all alone makes even me want to break down, but I can't do that right now since it won't help me or them. I look up at Cat's older brother and give a soft smile and place my hand on his forearm. "How about you head to the washroom to calm down for a minute and take you medicine, you know Cat wouldn't want you not taking your pills" I say trying to comfort the mentally fragile 22 year old.

"Will you come and get me if you learn anything about Cat?" He asks almost like a child would and I just nod yes, promising him I would. He turns to go but stops and turns back to me "Oh, um... Beck's mom is in the waiting room, she might know something about Beck" He says before turning and walking away.

I speed walk to the waiting room to see if Beck's mom is still there, she is and she looks as worried as I feel. When she sees me walk in she instantly runs over and takes me into a tight hug. I believe its her way of trying to comfort me, but I have a feeling she also needs a hug right now to so I don't try to fight it. I just go with it and hug her back, no matter how unusual it feels for me to hug someone other then Beck or Cat.

"Oh thank you for coming Jade, it means so much that your here" Beck's mom says as she pulls away from the hug and holds me by my upper arms to look at me through tear filled eyes.

"It's not a problem Holly, I would want to be here for them" I say calling Beck's mom by her first name like I've always done.

She smiles weakly and returns to her seat, I sit next to her as she takes hold of my hand. Once again I don't fight it, apart of me also drawing some comfort from the contact. After giving her a few moments of silence I have to ask the question that's burning in my mind. "So have you hear anything about Beck yet?"

She sighs and shakes her head no. "Nothing yet, they are still in the emergency room. The doctors said until they complete their examinations on them they won't know anything for sure" Holly looks like every word breaks her heart just little bit more. What she says only goes to frustrate me more. "God why do doctor's take so long doing their damn jobs" I think to myself, making sure not to say it out loud so I don't upset Beck's mom anymore then she already is.

I look around the waiting room and that's when I notice I don't see any of our other friend's. "Why aren't they here? They should be here waiting like I am now" I think as I become very annoyed at my so called friends.

I look to Holly and ask in a soft voice. "Have any of my other friend shown up yet?" I ask tentatively.

Holly shakes her head no again. "No dear, you were the only one I could get a hold of, I don't know where your and Beck's friends are" She says in a worried tone of voice.

"Okay, well I'm going to try calling them, see if I can get a hold of any of them and get them here" I say to Holly and she just smiles weakly at me.

I walk out of the waiting room and down the hall towards the closest exit, since I can't use my cell inside the hospital. As I am about to walk out of the doors, I see in the corner of my eye that Cat's brother is staring at a vending machine like he's mesmerized by whats inside of it. I decide its best to leave him where he is, if something catches his attention so completely its better not to ask why.

I get a few feet from the hospital and just take a few breaths, I need to breath for a minute since its starting to feel like I haven't in awhile. This day has started out so normal, how the hell did it get to this? It was actually looking like it was going to be a pretty good day from the start of things.

Cat was going to go get her drivers licence today. But she was worried that she wasn't a good enough driver to pass the test so Beck, being the nice guy he is, offered to let her get some practice driving his truck. Cat had been excited for days to get her licence and was thrilled that Beck was going to let her drive his truck. The excitement coming off of Cat was contagious and everyone decided that after Cat took her test we were going to have a party at Tori's place to celebrate.

I woke up earlier then normal today because I remembered what day it was and decided that I was going to go get Cat a gift for passing her drivers test. Its not known to everyone but I've known Cat longer the anyone else, maker her the closest friend I have. I do try to put up fronts to keep my tough chick image but Cat was always able to see around them and knows how I am truly feeling inside.

If I was really angry Cat would always come to me without fear to try and calm me down or find out why I'm mad. She knew I could never hurt her, no matter how mad I was. If I was ever sad she knew it and would be there for me trying to cheer me up or comfort me. She was always really good at making my sad moments not so sad. Cat would also know when I'm in a really good mood to and those were the times she looked forward to the most because she wanted to share them with me, making my good times better.

I also have a way of just knowing how Cat is really feeling to. She may look like she has simple, child-like, emotions. But under the happy and weird exterior the Cat puts up for her own amusement, there is a girl that is sincere with more emotional depths then I have ever seen in any other person in my whole life. I love the fun loving weird side of Cat, but her deep inner self is who I feel she truly is. That's the Cat I see when I look at her. Cat is one of a kind and knowing that a damn car crash might be taking her away breaks me in ways I never would have thought possible.

I try calling Tori or Andre. Since those two became exclusive six months back, its unlikely you would find one without the other. I call both there cells and neither of them answer. Best guess, their either working on a song together, meaning they can't hear their phones. Or their having sex, which means that they really can't hear their cell phones. All I can do is leave a voice mail message about whats going on and hope they get it soon.

Grunting in annoyance, I try Robbie next. Apart of me wonders why I even have that boys number, but I don't question it right now. I dial his number and wait for an answer, but I get nothing again. I leave another voice mail message. Doing my best not to think about what Robbie and his puppet might be doing that they can't answer his phone.

"Dammit, what great friend I have" I say out of anger over the situation. I head back inside and walk towards the waiting room again. This time I start thinking about Beck and wondering if hes okay.

Me and Beck are no longer officially dating, but in reality we have just decided to take a much more casual view on our relationship. Around the same time Andre and Tori got together, both Beck and I were feeling a little trapped by our relationship. So we decided that to make both of us happy we would be allowed to date and see other people if we liked, while at the same time still doing stuff together. We would often be found going to movies, hanging out or even fooling around if the urge hit us. Although I agree we're not really boyfriend and girlfriend anymore, we still feel very strongly for each other and are much happier this way. Much less fighting and jealousy, way more honest conversations with some kissing and fun stuff thrown into the mix. I guess if you were to classify mine and Beck's relationship, it would be friends with benefit.

When I was shopping for a gift for Cat, I got the call from Beck's mom telling me that Beck and Cat were in a car accident. She said through tears what hospital they were at and that I need to get there soon. After I hung up the phone I ran out of the build-a-bear, thinking of making a teddy bear for Cat as a gift, and got to the hospital as quickly as I could without breaking down myself. Beck is one of my closest friends, almost as close as Cat, and if I were to lose either of them I don't think I could survive it. How could a person survive loosing a peace of their heart once its been ripped from them so suddenly.

I keep walking towards the waiting room and that's when I hear Holly scream, my heart drops through the floor and my mind comes up with the worst possibilities. I run as fast as I can toward Holly and that's where I see her jumping excitedly, while clapping her hands. She literally jumps onto the doctor in front of her and gives him the tightest hug the man has likely ever gotten. I let the breath I have been holding out and run over quickly to see what the excitement is all about.

Holly turns and sees me standing there, a looks of pure joy is the best way to describe the look on her face at the moment. "Oh Jade, great news dear. Beck is going to be just fine, hes awake and everything. The doctor says he will be able to go home in a few days at the most. Isn't that great dear?" She says all this in a voice that's almost too high pitch to hear.

I take in a breath and the knot in the centre of my chest loosens with the news of Beck begin okay. "Yes, hell yes that great news" I say honestly happy that my friend, and sometimes lover, is going to be fine. But then a thought occurs to me and I know I need to hear the answer.

"What about Cat?" I ask turning to the doctor. "Is she okay?" I see the satisfied look the doctor had turn to one of grim seriousness. When I see the look my heart begins to pound harder again. I step towards the doctor and ask again if she is going to be okay.

The doctor looks between me and Holly, uncertainty appearing in his eyes. "I'm not sure if I can tell you this. Your not her family and unless Miss Valentin's brother gives the go ahead I can't really speak of her condition just yet" the doctor says these words and it shoots fear into the very core of my heart.

"What do you mean you can't speak of her condition? Is she okay? Come on, I've been friends with her forever" I say pleading with the doctor.

"I'm sorry miss there are rules in place for these things. But listen, I already told Miss Valentin's brother about her condition and he is with her right now. Once he is done visiting with her I will ask if its okay to tell you more about her situation and if he agrees I will let you know whats going on" He says in voice that is trying to sound comforting.

Normally such an answer would just piss Jade off, but hearing that Cat's brother was able to visit Cat in her room let Jade know that Cat was alive and for now that was good enough not to yell at the doctor.

"In the mean time" the doctor continues to speak. "you can both go visit Mr. Oliver, he is well enough to have visitors. I promise to keep you updated if anything changes with Miss Valentin" the doctor says before walking away. I just smirk at the doctor for calling Beck Mr. Oliver.
