Chapter Eleven: Over You- Miranda Lambert

Kate's Point of View (Flashback)

"The weather man said it's gonna snow." My dad said when I told him I was going to go for a walk.

"I'm used to the cold." I said harshly.

It's mid-Febuary, I'm terrified, it shouldn't be this scaring with out her. Whenever I play one of her old records, I hear her singing along.

I finally reach where I'm headed; Johanna Beckett's grave, my mom.

Kate's Point of View (Non-flashback)

"Kate." Rick sighed, his breath coming out in little puffy clouds.

"Hmm?"

"I know you wanted to come by yoourself, so why did you bring me?"

"I wanted you to see where my mom's buried, that's why I asked you to come with me."

He nods, "You think Talia is behaving for Ryan and Esposito?"

"Probelly not." I laugh.

"Yeah, she's so much like you."

"Excuse me?"

"She doesn't know how to listen when people tell her something."

We reach my mom's headstone before I can respond, "Here she is." I whisper.

"Kate?" Rick asks, "Are you okay? You just seem..."

"I'm fine, I'm just going to put the flowers on her grave, then we can leave."

"Are you sure you don't want to-"

"No," I say, lying the flowers on the freshly fallen snow, "Love you, mom." I close my eyes and whisper, then open them again and turn to Rick, "We can go now, thank you for viseting her with me this year."

He nods sollemly. I know it hurts him to see me hurt.


Just wanted to say: Rick's, Kate's, and Alexis's ages are different from the show. Rick is between 34-36, Kate is between 26-28, and Alexis is supposed to be 14-15! Okay, please review!
