Author's Notes: I know it's been a while but I'm here down so you can climb back into your chair. Oh and this to Ironpinappleberry I'm breaking the promise I made to you in chapter 3.

Snowfall
Chapter 11
It's Snowing

Val shirved (I don't think that's how you spell that, but you get the point) underneath her quilt. She knew it was only 2:00 in the afternoon but latly all she felt like doing was sleeping and she had been cold alot latly that was why she was covered up with the quilt.

She missed Tyler so much, especially after today. When she had been walking home from Gabby's funreal (don't think I spelled that right either) she had felt Tyler present it was almost like he was right beside her. She wished that he had been there, but she knew that he never would be.

"Val?" Val's mom called from the doorway of the small room that Val shared with her younger sister, Brooke.

"What?" Val asked sitting up a little in her bed. Both of her parents had been supportive and let Val work out her demons.

"It's about Caitie, her dad called just a few minutes ago," Her mom said, gently. This brought Val to a sitting position. Caitie was Val's best friend and had been shot twice the day that Tyler was killed.

"What about her? Is she okay?" Val asked clearly worried. Her mom took Val's hand and Val then knew that Caitie wasn't okay.

"No, she's not," Her mom said and then paused as she tried to find the right words, "She was experencing more pain in her kenee (did I spell that right I never spell that right) so they brought her in for more surgery," Another pause and Val took a deep breath preparing for the worst, "There were compications and afterward she slipped into a coma," Val felt like her world had come down around her ears. She couldn't imangine (did I spell that right) not having Caitie in her life. They had been through everything together.

Val laid back down and pulled the covers over her face in an effort to hide herself from the big bad world, that enjoyed destroying young love and life long friendships.

A/N: So what did you think? Worth the wait? Well, I thought it was pretty good, especailly that last paragraph. I think I'm going to put you guys though another two chapters of torture. Please review or send your flame retardent (I'm afraid of fire) comments to starmindy@yahoo.com. Thanks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
