In a Heartbeat
Chapter six
"What Happens When the Fairy Tale Ends?"

"Thank you." Tyler smiled flakily while the visitor returned a smile just a fake and completely insincere.
Val giggled in the chair next to him. "I think that was the worst one yet."
"No, James Cadwell was the worst. Remember what he said? Don't worry Tyler I'll take you're place on the team." Tyler smiled back.
"Or Tom Wallaces asking you if I was free to date other guys now."
The smile faded into the dark world it had come from. "Maybe you should."
Val rolled her blue eyes. 'How many times do I have to tell you I don't want too."
"The prom is coming up and I obviously can't take you . You should have someone to go with."
"I'm not going without you. And that's final."
"But-"
She reached over and placed a kiss on his lips. "That's final."

It was hard working at the station now. He blamed himself for Tyler's accident, Jamie and Val blamed themselves too.
And also it was different being in charge. What if something went wrong again? What if someone was killed this time? Also Tyler's replacement was, to put it lightly, hard to deal with. Especially considering who it was. The Goth Queen herself- Caitlin Roth. Socking wasn't it? She had insisted signing up for the squad , the very next day after it happened. Supposedly Caitie said she wanted to do something for Tyler. The boy she despised and wondered what Jamie and Val saw in him. Hank shook in his head, the girl was full of surprises.
* * *
"Close you're eyes it's a surprise." Caitie Roth whispered cheerfully sounding much like her blond- haired friend.
"Another one? Caitie if you tell me that you've decided to become a cheerleader I'm going to kill you." Jamie joked.
"Damn, you guessed it." her enthusiasm dropping.
"What!"
"Just kidding." she grinned and uncovered his eyes. "Here."
Underneath the school bleacher Caitie had created a candle light dinner. "Like it?"
"You never ceased -"
A loud wine of his beeper went off. "We gotta go." he said as Caitie's beeper joined in unison .
"Damn it. I'll never get used to those things."
He laughed, "Come on."
* * *
"I'm not going home?" Tyler replied angrily.
"Well honey, you're father, William, and I think that the rehab center would be better for you. Where people are more acceptable to take care of you."
Tyler winced. Oh yeah, people had to take care of him now. How could he forget? Amongst the pain, pills, at seventeen years old he couldn't even go to the bathroom himself.
It didn't matter anyway, he had a plan. Two days ago he had begun hoarding his pain pills. Tyler knew he was being a coward, but he didn't care. The guilt, hurt, and his parents was just to much. Besides everyone would be happier when he was gone. They could go back to their lives. He was going it for them really.
Really….

So what do you think? An ok chapter?? Look for a sequel to Men Plan, God Laughs
