Blackened Snowy Days
Part 1
By Amikou
I sat there staring out the window. I watched as the snow fell to the ground with an ever so delicate touch. I ll be right over I ll be right over. Those words just kept repeating in my head over and over again. This is what my boyfriend Dean had said to me two days again. He only lives ten miles away. It did not take this long to get from his house to mine. I had walked the road many times to his house. He was a caring boyfriend so he would have called me if was not going to come. There was no call, no text, and no email. What was going on with him? Was this his way of breaking up with me? No. It couldn t be he was forward enough to just come out and tell me. I got scared everytime I thought about it.
I was quickly brought out of my trance when my little ankle biter dog Jade hoped on my lap. She kept looking at the snow it was her first so she was a very curious puppy. I grabbed my jacket and put it on over my sweatshirt. This was a good opportunity to see what was up with Dean. I ran out the door yelling to my parents about something. They yellled back something that I couldn t hear. Jade jumped and rolled around in the snow for awhile. I started walking down the road to Deans house. Jade quickly noticed I was there and started chasing after me down the road. Her little legs finally let her catch up with me. It was extremely cold outside. It was starting to snow harder and the headwind was strong and not in my favor either. I was only four miles into the walk.
It only seemed to be getting colder. I put up collar on my jacket to cover my ears. It didnt work so good. I buttoned up my jacket and hid my face in it. I looked down and didn t see Jade. I looked all around me for her. I looked down the street and saw a little white butt waddling downt he street back home. I was now six miles into the walk. I came out of my coat like a turtle when I saw tire tracks going across the road and into a broken guard rail. I ran over and looked down the hillside. Laying at the bottom of the ditch was Dean s dodge ram truck. I let out a huge gasp. The whole top of the car was smashed in as well as the side. I screamed in my head NO NO NO this can t be why no. I try to run down the embankment and end up sliding down. I look in the truck he isn t here does that mean that he is okay. Dean is home relaxing right now. No he would have called me and told me the whole crazy story as if it were a joke. Maybe some one found him and sent him to the hospital. No cause his truck would not be here and also he would have had someone call me.
I start to panic and start digging in the snow it has snowed for the past two days. That was the reason Dean was coming over. He could be buried anywhere in the snow. I dug for alomst half an hour. There was only one place I hadn t dug yet I ran over to it. I went to my knees adn started digging. I hadn t worn gloves so my hands were frozen. I couldn t feel them anymore, but I didn t care. I wanted and needed to find my Dean. I finally reach his black denim jacket. I pull it up and his jacket comes out more and more. I start brushing off his face and every where else. I look down at his face and then I start to get scared. I know what I have to do, but I am afraid what I will hear or won t hear. I sniffle and put my head to his chest to listen for a heartbeat. I let out a little smile. I hear one, but it is very shallow. I quick pull out my cell phone and call 911 and tell them my location. After I hang up my phone I take off my coat and put it over him. I cuddle up next to him and I wait to hear to sirens.
