Hey, people. This is my first IAH fic and only my third fic ever. Please reply good or bad. Sorry I'm writing this in semi-script form but I don't feel like messing with the quotation marks and such.

BTW, I am a Texan so I'm sorry if I use the word "ya'll" every once in a while.

Chapter 1
EMS station.

Hank, Val, and Tyler walked into the station talking and laughing. As they were putting on their uniforms Alex walked into the room.

Alex: Guys, I hate to do this to ya' but Jamie's not going to come in today. He called and said he's not feeling well so he can't make it.

Tyler (joking): Sure, he's not feeling well. More like he's feeling lazy.

Alex (looking a little frustrated): That boy better be sick. If he is lying to me again he is in big trouble.

Hank: Jamie is telling the truth. He hasn't been feeling well for a couple of days. He looked like crap today. He told me that after he got out of detention he was going to talk to Catie then go home and sleep for days.

Val (concerned): I hope he's not coming down with something.

Hank: I think he's just getting the flu. The symptoms point to it.

Brooke walked into the room struggling under a huge stack of papers.

Brooke: Hey, guess what ya'll get to do.

Tyler: Let me guess, paperwork?

Brooke: Bingo, and for your prize you get to start on these.

Brooke handed him a large stack of papers. Tyler groaned.

Tyler (under his breath): Lucky Jamie

Hank was laughing at the expression on Tyler's face when Brooke walked over to him and dropped an even bigger stack in his arms.

Brooke: Here's your part, Hank.

Needless to say, Hank laughter stopped abruptly.

....................................................................................................................................................

Tyler (rubbing his hands): This kind of torture has to be illegal somewhere.

The EMT's had being working on paperwork for the last hour and there was hardly a dent in their stacks. So when the alarm sounded they were extremely happy to leave the work behind.

As he pulled out of the station Tyler asked Hank the stats on the call.

Hank (looking at the report): 16-year-old male, passed out, reasons not know. Location...Kingsport High

Tyler: OK let's go

A pretty brunette ran towards the EMT's as they traversed the football field.

Val (puzzled): Catie, what are you doing here?

Tears flowed down Catie's cheeks. She was obviously hysterical.

Catie: Oh, God, Val. It's Jamie. Hurry, you have to help him.
