Connie is falling and she's falling hard. The weight of what feels like the world rests on her shoulders. She's free yes, but her problems are just beginning.

Her heals click only the path, her head held high and her hair blowing slightly in the wind. An expression of carelessness is firmly upon her face. She can't show anyone that she's broken, it's just not the way Connie Beauchamp works.

The ED is stunned into silence as their clinical lead enters. Whispers fill the otherwise still air. But no one is loud enough so that connie hears. Not one of them is quite that mindless. She walks effortlessly into her office.

Her shoulders relax, it feels like arriving home, but this time it's different. There's a sense of sorrow to the room. This was the place everything went wrong, the place that nearly ended her career.

Someone still needed to pay but who. Who would have been so angry with her to do such a thing. Connie wasn't blind she knew that her and Rita didn't see eye to eye but would she really sink that low. That question was still somewhat unanswerable.

She sat down. Tears formed but she blinked them away.

"Stay strong Connie. You have to stay strong."

She'd lost everything. Grace, the staffs respect and nearly her job. She needed to remain focused things needed fixing and she was going to fix them. But first she needed to fix herself.

All morning the same question had been playing on her mind.

'Did Rita set her up?'

There was only one way to find out. She stood up and closed the door as she left her office. Enquiring eyes met hers. She brushed them off. People had already formed their opinion of her and that was something she'd have to live with.

"Nurse Freeman. Can I have a word in my office."

Rita felt a sudden rush of panic. Had Connie worked out it was her? She didn't know and in all fairness she didn't really want to find out.

"Of course Mrs Beauchamp."

Rita followed Connie back to her office.

"Shut the door."

Rita shut the door and sat opposite Connie.

"If my suspicions serve me well I'm sure you already know why you are here."

"Umm not really."

"Now look, I need the truth. I don't have time for pathetic lies I've had just bullshit these last few weeks."

"Look Connie I'm so so sorry, it all got out of hand. I never meant for you to get locked up."

"So it was you. You made assumption and yet again I suffered."

"Connie it was never meant to happen. I'm sorry. I know I've ruined everything and you have every right the hate me and wish me dead, I totally understand."

"Rita. Right now I have no idea how to feel. I'm hurt really hurt. I thought in that lift we over came a barrier but I was wrong."

"I'm sorry, I had already rang by then. Connie please."

"Get out, just go."

Rita got up quickly, being on the wrong side of Connie was never in anyone's best interests.

The door closed behind Rita. Connie let the tears of pent up anger and sorrow seep from her eyes. All these months she'd been fighting her feelings for the blonde nurse and now it was too late she had created a monster.

This was all her fault and Rita had been doing what she thought was right. Maybe just maybe things could still be fixed.

Please review. There'll be more soon xx
