'Hi guys, I'm back with a new fic. Read and review. Thanks. Don't know if it'll be a short story or a long one. Depends though. And I think it was well written.'
Life Goes On
Summary:The INAHB crew loses a patient and takes it hard. Will they understand that life will go on? Told through Catie's eyes though.
I walked into the station I hadn't been in here since yesterday. I was stopping by to pick up
my forgotten math book. Something was wrong though. The silence. That was what was
wrong, it was silent. Not filled with any happy laughter. All of a sudden it felt cold, and the
silence was not helping. I spotted Tyler in a corner reading a book, or at least I think he was
trying to. I looked around and saw that Val, was in the bottom bunk, and Jamie was in the top
one.
"Hey guys"I said trying to figure out what was wrong.
They looked at me. Their eyes were filled with grief and sadness. What had happened that I
didn't know about. I walked over to the bunks and sat down at the bottom of Val's. "Whats
wrong?"I asked. Her eyes were filled with tears. Then they errupted casacading down her
face. I went to her and held her. I didn't like to see my best friends cry. I never had. I held her
head until she stopped sobbing and was ready to tell me what was wrong. Her head fell back
against the pillow. "Are you gonna tell me now?"I asked in a tenderly soft voice.
She took a deep breath. "Today there was an accident." I nodded waiting for her to tell more
of the tragedy. "There was a little girl, she was about five. Her entire body went through the
windshield. We tried to help but the little girl died on the scene. We did everything to revive
her, and the worst part was it was on us. Not some other team, but ours."
I nodded understandingly. In her eye i could see everything,. I could see pain, heartbrake,
love, betrayle, and innocence. My friend was feeling guilty for something that she had no
power over.
"Val," I said. She gave me her full attention. "Remember when my cat died in second grade
and you came ver and we cried together for hours?"
She nodded yes. "Catie that different though."
"I know but when we burried her, we were still crying and mom said it would be okay. I
thought it would never be okay. But then she told us, just because someone or something dies
doesn't mean you have to forget. Life will go on, but the memories can stay." I smiled and
took her hand in mine. She smiled for the fist time since i had walked in.
"Thanks Cate"she reached over and hugged me.
"Welcome. Thats what best friends are for." I hugged her tighter hoping we would always be
friends. Knowing in my heart that we always would be.
