Here's the first chapter.

The wind was blowing lightly while it rained. Lilly was leaving the beach, and Jackson's shift at Rico's had just finished.

"Hey Lilly," he said.

"Hi" she replied quietly.

"So what are you doing here alone in the rain" laughed Jackson.

Lilly just looked down.

"You alright?" Jackson asked.

She nodded.

"Come on Lilly, lets take you home, you're soaking." He offered.

"No its ok, I'll walk". She mumbled, still looking down.

"Its freezing out here, I can't just leave you to walk home in all this rain. Come on, I'm driving by that way anyway". Jackson said, opening the car door.

Lilly hesitated for a moment, before going into the car. Her face was pale and serious.

"You sure you're alright?" Jackson asked her again, while driving.

Once again, she nodded.

"Ok", said Jackson, but he knew she wasn't telling the truth.

When they reached Lilly's house she climbed out. "Thanks", she said.

That evening, it was still raining outside. Jackson had just arrived at the beach for another shift at Rico's.

"Come on Rico, this is pointless! Why is this place still open in this weather? The beach is empty, nobody's going to buy anything today!" Jackson complained.

"I don't care! Even if there was 5 feet of snow on the ground this place would be open. You can't do business if the business is closed! So stop your complaining and get back to work!" Rico ordered.

Jackson sighed and stared across the beach. It was hard to see past the rain, but he could just about see a small figure staring at the sea, on the other side of the beach. He wasn't certain, but he was almost sure who that small figure was.

An hour passed, and the figure was still there.

By the time Jackson's shift ended and Rico had gone home, night had fallen, and it was still raining. Jackson made his way across the empty beach towards the figure.

"Lilly!" he laughed. "What are you doing?!"

There was no reply.

He walked a bit closer, until he could see her.

"Lilly, its night, why are you standing out here on the beach?"

There was still no reply. Jackson walked a little closer until he could see her clearly.

He came over and hugged her, and he noticed she was crying.

Jackson took off his coat and wrapped it around her shivering body, and silently led her into his car.

They sat there in silence for a moment, tears silently streaming down Lilly's face.

"Lilly", Jackson said. "I've never seen you like this, you're always so cheery and happy".

Once again, there was no reply.

Lilly was still shaking.

"What's happened, Lilly?" Jackson asked

She just shook her head, crying again.

Jackson hated seeing his little sisters best friend like this.

Lilly opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out.

"Its alright Lilly. What happened?"

"O-Ol-Oliver's in a c-c-coma" she stuttered.

Please review. Should I update?
