When her feet hit the gutter at the lip of chanel handbags outlet the roof, she came to a halt; but her bottom was half off the sloping side edge. She tilted sideways. Craig tightened his grip on her coat and pulled, drawing her toward him and safety—then he slipped again. He let go of her coat, waving his arms to stay upright.
     Sophie screamed and fell off the roof.
     She dropped ten feet and landed in soft new snow behind the trash can.
     Craig leaned over the edge. Little chanel bags outlet light fell in that dark corner, and he could hardly see her. "Are you all right?" he said. There was no reply. Had she been knocked unconscious? "Sophie!"
     "I'm okay," she said miserably.
     The back door opened.
     Quickly, Craig lowered himself to a sitting position.
     A man stepped out. Craig could just see a head of short dark hair. He glanced over the side. The extra light spilling from the open door made Sophie just visible. Her pink louis vuitton damier azur canvas bags anorak disappeared into the snow, but her dark jeans showed. She lay still. He could not see her face.
     A voice from inside called, "Elton! Who's out there?"
     Elton waved a flashlight from side to side, but the beam showed nothing but snowflakes. Craig flattened himself on the roof.
     Elton turned to the right, away from Sophie, and walked a few steps into the storm, shining his flashlight in front of him.
     Craig pressed himself to the roof, louis vuitton damier ebene handbags hoping Elton would not glance up. Then he realized that the loft door was still wide open. If Elton happened to shine his flashlight that way, he could not fail to see it and investigate—which would be disastrous. Moving slowly, Craig crawled up the lean-to roof. As soon as he could reach, he got hold of the lower edge of the door and gently pushed it. It swung slowly through an arc. Craig gave chanel bags outlet it a final shove and released it, then quickly lay down again. The door closed with an audible click.
     Elton turned. Craig lay still. He saw the beam of the flashlight play over the gable end of the house and the loft door.
     The voice came from inside again. "Elton?"
     The flashlight beam moved off. "I can't see nothing," Elton shouted back irritably.
