A/N: Okidity Dokity! I left you people who are nice enough to read my fic where Val and Tyler say good-bye forever and go to college to start their new lives.

EIGHT YEARS LATER

Val walked into her favorite patient's hospital room. Kenny Logan was 12 year old and had a heart transplant last week. Kenny was the sweetest guy in the world. But once in a while he would get sly or cunning.

"So how's my favorite patient doing?" Val asked.

"Bored as hell," he answered grumpily.

"Watch your language, Mr. Logan," she said.

"Sorry Dr. Lanier."

"Ugh, Kenny, you know I hate being called that." It made Val feel so old. She was only 26 years old.

"So what's on the agenda today, Dr. Val?"

"Well, I'm finally getting rid of you," she said. Kenny was in shock.

"What!?!" 

"No worry, I'll be back when I have time. Plus, I have to stop by for the occasional check-up." Kenny was relieved. Dr. Val was the only doctor who was "cool" enough to talk to. " I'm going to hand you to some other doctor. I haven't checked his file yet, but he's going to stop by today." Kenny watched Val write stuff on his charts.

"So," Val sat down on a nearby chair, "How is your girlfriend doing?"

Kenny laughed. "Dr. Val, I don't think your supposed to ask me questions like that."

"Oh come on, I'll tell you my love life if you tell me yours."

Kenny gave in. "Her name is Alison."

Twenty-six-year old Tyler Connell walked through the halls of his new office. He had been transferred from New York to work on a specialized patient. He was a pediatrician. It was his first day on the job at the UCLA hospital, and he was lost.

"Excuse me, Gladys, where can I find room 704?" he asked a nearby nurse.

"Lost again Dr. Connell?" she asked. "That's the fifth time this morning." He laughed and she led him to the room. He paused at the doorway and saw his male patient talking to one of the female doctors. They were apparently having a comical conservation.

"Ok, so I lean in to kiss her," the teen boy said, "and…" Kenny's gaze shifted to Tyler at the door.

"What's wrong Kenny?" the woman in the chair asked confused. She looked at the direction Kenny was gazing at.

Tyler, embarrassed, said, " I'm very sorry to interrupt your conversation. You looked like you were having such fun, I didn't want to ruin."

Val looked at the man. He seemed oddly familiar. His blue eyes. His sandy brown hair. He looked like a guy from her past. The guy she left behind at the Kingsport airport before she went off to college. No, It couldn't be him, she thought.

"Hi, you must be Kenny's new pediatrician. I'm his cardiologist, Valerie Lanier."

Tyler stared at the girl he thought he had gotten over. He tried to forget her blonde hair, blue eyes, and that smile that made you feel all good inside. In college, Tyler had a hard time letting go of her, until he met Gwen, his future wife.

"Val?" he asked shocked.

"Yeah, that's what everyone calls me." She was nervous. How did he know that name, she thought. He's only known me for a minute.

"It's me, Tyler, Tyler Connell."
