I do not own the summerland cast or the characters that are in the story.
Sorry it took me so long to update, losts of things happened, I found some nice quizzes and i got hung on then, and something sad happened, which really bumbed me out, and i cried, i am not a crying type person. Then i got really hyper and couldn't write, but i think that is from the lack of sleep i have been having. staying up until 2 am and falling asleep at i think 3 and than waking up early doesn't do well for the brain. Yesterday i was so hyper i was scary my friend. Stupid pink leprechauns, and green Penguins. nevermind. I would like to thank the following.
photochick129- thank you for reading and i came up with the the kids name through searching for one for a different story, I don't remember the site, but i do remember that the name Canan means Beloved in turkish and i liked that, because in the other story it was sad and i made that character die...SHHH...i haven't posted that part for people yet in the story. They don't even know she is a character in it.
Lauren- sorry I didn't update sooner, as i said somethings came up and i really wasn't in the mood to write the story at that point but here is the next chapter for you.
amateur-writer- thanks for reading it I love that i have people reading it. I am glad that you like the way i write, thanks again.
me- i don't know who you are or it you will know it is you, but thank you for the comments. Thanks
Erin- thanks for reading, i kind of have that in here, but it is slightly different.
melodie568- thank you so much for reading this story. I am glad you like it.
theshyone- I am very happy that you like the story, but you would have probably liked to have this sooner sorry, but here it is.
PB Punk- thank you for reading my stories, i do appreciate it. I am also very glad that you love it.
x3Tinkerbell07- thank you for the review, you have the exact opposite reaction to the character in this story then a different person for a different story. I am glad that you like it.
dolphinchick2568- i am sorry i didn't make the last one long enough for you, but i hope that this one is. please don't be mad at me and make your angry face again. Thank you for reading and reviewing. Also thanks for telling me I spelt Nikki wrong, i wasn't sure who they spelled it in the show, i didn't have internet on the computer i was writing it on, so i couldn't look it up. I just did it off of how one of my friends spells her name, thanks.
Thanks to all of you who have read and reviewed, or not reviewed. I am going to try to finish this quiz before i have to go bad to school , which is Sept. 1. I hope to have it finished than, and maybe i will come up with another one, or maybe i should finish the ones that i have started all ready. If there are any mistakes, in spelling, or grammer, i am sorry, i am not the best speller in the world, I most likely will replace chapters with spelling mistakes in them, at a different time, but i am going to be looking for bog mistakes this time so you guys can have your story sooner. Thanks again to everybody that is reading the story. The person thanks are for the people who reviewed the last chapter of the story i would do it ever chapter but i am trying to hurry in most of the posting. Well i have to go to my flute lesson soon, so i have to stop rambling, and let you read the story.
Awakening (sp?)
Bradin returned to the hospital the next day. Jay brought him. Canan and the rest of the group were still had Ava's house and they were going to be coming that afternoon.
The doctors came out and talk to them.
"I have good news." The doctor said
"That would be?" Bradin asked
"Cat should be able to keep her legs. We still don't know if she will be able to walk again, since her vertebra was damaged and was pressing into her spinal cord. We are hoping that the spinal cord will heal. We tried to get some reflexes but we didn't get any. But that could be temporary. One of you can go in there, but only one at a time." The doctor said
"You go." Jay said
"Thanks." Bradin said.
The doctor led him towards Cat's room. She had been taking out of recovery and was now in her own room. The doctor left Bradin in the room and he slowly walked over to the bed.
Bradin looked down at Cat and saw how badly she was hurt. Her right leg was in a cast and her left leg was strapped to the bed, to keep in one place, if she could move it. Her face was covered in scratches and bruises, as were her arms. She looked so peaceful lying there.
"Oh, Cat." Bradin said as he took the seat next to her bed. "I am so sorry, it's my fault you are in this mess. If it weren't for me you wouldn't have gone into the coral...You would have watched where you were and not even gotten close to the coral...I never meant to hurt you." Bradin said as he grabbed her hand and squeezed it. "Sarah surprised me, that's all. I didn't know she was going to do that. I didn't know what was happening until it was to late. It meant nothing. Nothing at all."
A nurse came in and wrote Cat's vitals on a paper.
"Can I get you anything?" The nurse asked once she was done writing.
"No thanks." Bradin said as he looked up.
"Okay." The nurse said as she walked out and shut the door.
"I don't know what to say." Bradin said "I love you and I want you to be happy, and be okay. I would understand if you hate me, Jay told me you saw Sarah and me kiss. But I never meant it to happen. I cannot lose you. Not now. Canan cannot lose you. I know they said that you have a good chance, but they also said that you might not wake up. I need you to watch up. I cannot do this by myself. I don't think I can raise Canan by myself either. You need to wake up. You need to fight. If you don't want me anymore, I get it. But we have been through so much." Bradin said as he began to have flash backs to when they were younger.
Flashback
A preschool class is sitting in a classroom. The teacher is at the front of the room, school started a few days earlier. The door to the classroom opens and in walks a little girl with a blue dress on. She walks over to the teacher and hand her a piece of paper. The teacher reads it and then smiles. The teacher then turns to the rest of the class.
"Well everybody, we have a new student. She moved her not that long ago, but she had to start school a little, but she is here now. Everybody...This is Catheren."
"Hi, Catheren." The class says in unison.
"Why don't you tell about yourself Catheren." The teacher prompts.
"You can call me Cat that's what my dad called me. I have a little brother about a year old now. Ummm...." Cat said
"You can tell us about yourself a little later, if you would like." The teacher said feeling that Cat was uncomfortable.
Cat nodded her head.
"Why don't you sit next to Bradin?" The teacher said "Bradin could you raise your hand so Cat can see where you are?" she said again.
We see a small Bradin sitting at one of the tables with three other people there. Cat walks over to the table.
"Hi I'm Bradin." A small boy that resembles the older one we have come to know and love says.
"Cat." Cat says as she sits down.
"I am Heater." The girl that was sitting at the table before says
"Hi." Cat says.
The teacher comes over and she gives Cat some papers, which is the project they are working on now.
"Bradin can tell you what we are doing." The teacher says
"Okay." Cat says.
"This is a project about out families. We are supposed to but our parents on this one..." Bradin said pointing to a circle shaped cut out. "...On this one, we have to draw ourselves, doing something we like to do..." he said pointing to a rectangle shaped cut out. (there are more shapes but I don't want to get into them right now.)
The after lunch they were supposed to show off their creations. They went table to table, the kids would stand up and explain what was going on in their drawings.
Now it was Cat's turn, she was the last person to go in the class.
"This is my mom, and my brother, they are on the porch watching me leave for school today. This is of me drawing something I want draw; I want to be an astronaut when I grow up so I drew a picture of me in space when I get older. This one is of my cat Stu. She's a white fluffy cat that is very cuddly." Cat said (their were once more, more, but I don't want to get into them because I cannot think of other things they made you talk about in preschool, since it's been about thirteen years.)
"That was very nice." The teacher said. "Does anybody have any questions for Cat?" She asked like she had with all of the other students.
"I do, where's your daddy in the picture?" A girl named Sarah ; ) asked
"He died, a year ago two days ago. That's why I wasn't here, I was at his grave site." Cat said as she sat back down."
The class was silent.
"I'm sorry about that." Bradin whispered.
"Don't worry about." Cat said as she looked down at her project.
"You're a good drawer. Your drawings are a lot better then mine." Bradin said looking back and forth between his and hers.
"Yours a fine." Cat said as she looked at his. "I like them." She said
"Thank." Bradin said, "Hey tomorrow do you want to sit with me at lunch?"
"Sure." Cat said
End Flashback
"Even then we were friends even though we barely knew each other. I only got a little better at the drawings; you were always better at them than me. Even though you did try to teach me once." Bradin said
Flashback
An eight-year-old Bradin is sitting at a table. Cat is sitting next to him.
"Make shorter strokes." Cat said
"If I go any shorter I want be able to see the line." Bradin said frustrated.
"Okay, watch then." Cat said as she picked up a pencil and looked at the picture Bradin had been trying to draw. "Usually, when you are starting out you want to make short strokes, to make it easier for the person to see what they are trying to accomplish. When you draw a round thing you want to make most of the circle, if you don't like the way it came out then you can fix what you did wrong, but don't erase the circle completely, or you might make the same circle." Cat said as she drew a circle. (I really wish I knew what I am talking about, but I cannot, I can barely draw, though my friend says she likes my drawing of something, better then hers, and she is a really good drawer. Though I had shaded mine and she didn't, what ever. I am not a expert in drawing so I am not going to really pretend to, so let skip what she says to him to make him try to understand what to do.)
Two hours later.
"I still don't get it." Bradin said as he threw is pencil on the table and pushed away from the table.
Just as his mom came in
"Hey, guys, dinners ready." She said.
"Okay, mom." Bradin said
End of Flashback
"Then there was the time we thought we could fly and you broke your leg for the first time."
Flashback
"I don't think people can Fly." Says a ten year old Cat.
"Of course we can. Superman can and he is a man." Bradin says
"Yes, but he also can run really fast." Cat said, "Not to mention he is from a different planet." Cat said
"I don't believe you, are you chickening out on me?" Bradin asked
"Of course not, I am just saying I don't think people can fly." Cat said
"I think we can." Bradin said
"But wait, why don't we do this on the ground, superman can get into the air when he is on the ground, he never had to jump off of a roof." Cat said
"I tried it on the ground and I couldn't do it, so who goes first?" Bradin asked
"I guess I will go." Cat said as she took a deep breath and then ran towards the edge The Westerly house roof.
Bradin watched as she glided for like a second and then started to fall to the ground. He heard her hit the ground, and he ran towards the edge and looked down, she was on her back her leg stuck in a bush and the other one was bent at the wrong angel. He climbed down and ran to find his mother who came out after calling an ambulance. Cat was rushed to the hospital, and about six hours later she was released to Mrs. Westerly since Cat's mom was way with her new husband, with Ian and Jared. (Ian and Jared are Cat's brothers)
End of Flashback
"You broke your leg then and that was the first broken bone you even had, but it wasn't your last." Bradin said remembering when Cat broke her arm.
Flashback.
It is some Saturday and Cat and Bradin as about eleven or twelve, they are at the YMCA's Saturday thing,(Like a camp but it is only on Saturdays and also during the school year. They were playing a game called ship, (a game where when the instructor, or captain in the game, would call out, boat turns and you would run to where ever it was that they called, like the port side or the stern.) We where running to the right and Cat was sliding on the waxed floor of the gym. Her arm hit the wall, and it didn't bend.
Bradin was right next to her, but not on the ground. He watched as Cat got up and told the instructors her arm hurt, they gave her ice and she sat out the rest of the day.
End of Flashback
"That was the year that Jared died." Bradin said. I was with you at the funeral.
Flashback
Bradin and Cat are sitting in the waiting room as her mom and her new husband paced back and forth. A doctor walked into the room. And talked to Cat's parents and then her mom was on the ground crying.
A week later, they were standing in a graveyard in front of an open grave. A priest was standing next to the grave talking but Bradin didn't remember what he was saying. The coffin was lowered into the ground and they said their good byes.
End of Flashback
"He have lost so much in the years we have known each other, but I know we have also done some great things together. I don't want to lose you, you don't have to love me, but I love you and that will never change, but is you don't love me then at least I hope we can be friends again. I don't want to lose you completely." Bradin said as he still held Cat's hand. She was still asleep, but he didn't want to leave. He sat at her bedside reminding her of all of the fun they had together.
Bradin started to fall asleep. He was still holding Cat's hand. He was about to let go when he felt something grab hold of his hand; he looked at his hand and saw that Cat's was still there, and it was closed around it, not just sitting there.
"Cat?" Bradin asked
A small moan came to his ears. He looked at her head and watched as it went from one side to the other. Then the eyes opened but shut quickly. They slowly started to open and Cat looked right into Bradin's eyes.
"Cat?" Bradin said again.
"Bradin." Cat said hoarsely
"Hey it's me." Bradin said
"What happened?" Cat asked
"You had an accident." Bradin said. "I'll be right back, I am going to get the doctor."
A minute later Bradin walked in with the doctor right behind him.
"Well it's good to see you awake, Catheren. I am Dr. Murray. Do you remember what happened?" The doctor asked
"I was surfing and I fell." Cat said
"Do you know how you feel?" Dr. Murray asked
"Somebody got in front of me. I couldn't turn in time so I bailed off the board, and I went under, the waves kept coming, I couldn't get up. I kept being slammed in the coral"
"What's the last thing you remember?" Dr. Murray asked
"Someone coming around the coral, and grabbing hold of me." Cat said
"Do you know who it was?" Dr. Murray asked
"I don't know." Cat said
"It's okay. I want to know if you can feel this." The doctor asked
Cat felt something touch her leg and it hurt when it touched her.
"Yeah." Cat said
"That's a good thing. You wont be able to walk very well for a while, and you might need to have a lesson again in how to walk. But other than that, you should be fine." Dr. Murray said. "I am going to go and when I get back I would like to know if you can out wait on your leg." The doctor said as he left.
"Bradin?' Cat said
"Yeah, it's me." Bradin said, "I can go it you would like." Bradin said
"No, stay, I think we should talk." Cat said
"Okay, what about?" Bradin asked
"Us." Cat said.
They talked for the next hour.
