Chapter 1
Tears of Memories
The loud noise of the hospital could be heard everywhere. JD took the chance and hid in an 'on call room.' He couldn't help and think back on all of the people he had lost. The crazy religious nurse he could never remember the name of. Brian, Cox's best friend. Even his old teacher. All of the patients who died because of stupidity or even a simple mistake.
He wanted to take the time he had to remember how many patients he had become close to and then to lose them a minute later. The time when was mourning his brother in laws death and he ended up losing an older man because he hadn't been able to catch a simple mistake. The time when Lavern got into a car crash and didn't make it. Everybody had reacted in their own ways even though it annoyed Carla.
She wasn't ready to say goodbye until the very end and then Lavern just slipped away...Carla never forgot her. Everytime Lavern's birthday came around she wore a pin on her scrubs that Lavern had given her several years before her death. JD remembered when Carla had told him about the first time she had meet Lavern. She had been the same from when JD had first met her. She believed in Jesus the first day he met her until the very end.
Carla even joked that if Jesus wasn't real Lavern would be real mad. The hospital was never the same after so many people they knew died. The sad part of it was that they were doctors and they could do nothing about it expect learning to say goodbye. JD shifted just enough to turn on the radio. JD settled on the only station he could get clearly.
Of all the things I believe in
I just want to get it over with
tears from behind my eyes
but I do not cry
Counting the days that past me by
I've been searching deep down in my soul
Words that I'm hearing are starting to get old
Looks like I'm starting all over again
The last three years were just pretend and I say
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I love
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
I still get lost in your eyes
And it seems like I can't live a day without you
Closing my eyes till you chase my thoughts away
To a place where I am blinded by the light but it's not right
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
Ohhh yeah
It hurts to want everything & nothing at the same time
I want whats yours and I want whats mine
I want you but I'm not giving in this time
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
Goodbye to you
Goodbye to everything I thought I knew
You were the one I loved
The one thing that I tried to hold on to
We the stars fall and I lie awake
Your my shooting star
JD smiled as he thought about the meaning of the song. So simple. So out there. It was a song that was meant for someone to say goodbye. JD's smile faded as the next song came on.
You took my hand
You showed me how
You promised me you'd be around
Uh huh
That's right
I took your words
And I believed
In everything
You said to me
Yeah huh
That's right
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong
I know better
Cause you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Remember when we were such fools
And so convinced and just too cool
Oh no
No no
I wish I could touch you again
I wish I could still call you friend
I'd give anything
When someone said count your blessings now
'fore they're long gone
I guess I just didn't know how
I was all wrong
They knew better
Still you said forever
And ever
Who knew
Yeah yeah
I'll keep you locked in my head
Until we meet again
Until we
Until we meet again
And I won't forget you my friend
What happened
If someone said three years from now
You'd be long gone
I'd stand up and punch them out
Cause they're all wrong and
That last kiss
I'll cherish
Until we meet again
And time makes
It harder
I wish I could remember
But I keep
Your memory
You visit me in my sleep
My darling
Who knew
My darling
My darling
Who knew
My darling
I miss you
My darling
Who knew
Who knew
JD missed his girlfriend, Kim. She was at home waiting on him. He pulled out his cell phone and pushed speed dial number one.
"Hello," said the tired voice.
"Hi, Kim," JD said. "I'm in the on call room right now. Could you turn the station to 100.1 FM?"
"Sure," Kim said. JD heard her shift and then he heard a song go on in the background. "Why do you want the radio on?"
"So we can be listening to the same thing even though we are apart," JD answered softly. He knew Kim smiled.
"I'll see you when you get back," Kim said. "Good night."
"Goodnight," JD answered and then the phone went dead. JD turned his attention to the radio.
"If you want to request a song call 1-888-9091-0821," the DJ said. JD dialed the number and was shocked when he heard the DJ's voice.
"I'd like to make a request for my girlfriend," JD said.
"Where is she," The DJ asked.
"At home listening to the radio," JD answered.
"Where are you," The DJ asked.
"In the on call room at work," JD answered.
"What song do you want me to play," The DJ asked.
"When you're gone by Avril Lavigne," JD said. "It's one of her favorites."
"Okay good luck with your lady," The DJ said. "Here is 'When you're gone.' "
'I always needed time on my own
I never thought I'd need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I'm alone
And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
Chorus
When you're gone
The pieces of my heart are missing you
When you're gone
The face I came to know is missing too
When you're gone
The words I need to hear to always get me through the day and make it ok
I miss you
I've never felt this way before
Everything that I do reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do
When you walk away I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now
Chorus
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were, yeah
All I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah
The song ended and JD smiled. The door swung open to reveal a nurse.
"Dorian there is a women bleeding pretty badly and we can't get it to stop," the nurse said. JD nodded and rushed after her. It was going to be a long night but at least he had someone waiting on him at home. Someone that he loved.
