Hey guys, thanks to all my brill reviewers and sorry it took so long…(I went on my hols and wrote a one-shot and this chapter over again…also chapter 5 again too…hope it's ok).
Chapter 4
Nervous soul for a cured heart
When they got to the hospital, Freddy, Zack, Summer and Katie's mum had to wait outside the room while Katie got treated. They all decided together that Katie's mum should go in on her own first.
Katie's Pov
The door swung forwards and I could hear my mum's high-heeled shoes echoing across the clean shiny floor. A few seconds later the curtain pulled back and there she stood. She has dark hair like me but has green eyes instead. Her hair is pulled back tightly into a slightly messy bun…after a days work no wonder it's a bit messy…she is a bit of a stress head and a worrier. She looked me up and down gave a great sigh and then said,
"Oh, Katie."
"Pretty bad hey?" I replied, I could finally talk, with a little pain but not much, and no way as much as earlier. Her eyes began to water as she slid onto the bed and put her arm around me. Then she gave another big sigh and said after a moments pause.
"Katie, who…who did this to you?" "I mean, Freddy said something about two girls and the History classroom, but he was in such a state, well, it was hard to understand."
I looked up at her, she looked down at me…our eyes held contact but only for a moment, I looked away first. I opened my mouth to try to explain…but I didn't know where to start. I looked at her again but decided to say something this time.
"I'll, I'll tell you later mum, please?" I pleaded.
"Ok honey."
She clambered off the bed and turned around to face me.
"Mum?"
"Yes love?"
"Can you send Freddy in?"
"Of course honey." She kissed the top of my head and then left the room.
End Katie's PovKatie's mum came out of the ward and walked towards Freddy, Zack and Summer.
"How is she?" Summer asked hastily.
"She's fine, but she wants to see Freddy." She gestured towards him.
"Oh, right." Freddy replied looking very nervous at the thought. Truth be told he was nervous as hell. Zack gave him a thumbs up as Freddy walked towards the ward entrance. He pushed the door open and walked through it swung shut behind him leaving the air quite empty from noise. He walked towards Katie's cubicle, and hesitated before pulling back the curtain. Katie looked up as he walked a little further in and pulled the curtain closed again.
"Hey…" Katie said watching Freddy curiously.
"Hey." He replied walking even further into the cubicle so as to stand by the side of her bed. Instead he decided to sit on it near to her.
Katie waited for silence until she spoke.
"Freddy, I…" She began "Well, I, it's just, well, well, thanks, for…you know."
"It's ok Katie, glad I got there when I did hey?" He replied deep in thought.
"Yeah." She let out a small laugh; to her it sounded a very nervous laugh.
"Erm, I need to, er, I guess, I, I need to tell you…something." She said stuttering and going slightly pink.
"Er, I need to tell you, something…too." He said, incredibly nervous by this point.
"Ok, well, you first this time." She said relieved.
"Er, oh god, erm…ok, here goes…I, I well, I," He closed his eyes, sighed, and keeping them shut said, "I, really like you, Katie…more than, more than a friend…" He was so afraid to open his eyes, there was total silence and this is what scared him, he opened one eye, then opened both as soon as he saw the expression on Katie's face. She was grinning broadly from ear to ear.
"Freddy, I like you more than a friend too…" He gave her a huge grin and then jumped off the bed. He walked towards her, his heart thumping. He lent in close to her. She lent in closer, so close that they touched lips. After a while they both pulled apart, they stared at each other. He brushed her shoulder as they both lent in again. This time they only pulled away when they heard a small cough from behind. Freddys head whipped round and Katie looked past him.
"Well if you guys are at it, what d'ya say Sum?" Zack gave all three of them a small smirk.
"Zackery!" Summer said in a pretend annoyed tone.
Freddy smiled at Katie and then got off the bed. He walked over to Zack and Summer walked towards Katie.
"Been busy then?" Summer asked giggling.
"Shut up!" Katie replied playfully punching her best friends arm.
"Well I think you make a great couple, I knew all along that you two would get together eventually." Summer said smiling.
"Thanks, I'm just so happy now." Katie replied grinning widely.
Meanwhile
"Wow, way to go man!" Zack said slapping Freddy on the back.
"Thanks, I can't believe she feels the same way though."
"Hey, listen man, me an' Sum' were the same way to begin with. We couldn't believe it when we both had to do the same truth question at Alicia's birthday, and both liked each other. But, since everyone knew that we liked each other barr us, I guess it was obvious that you guys would get us together." Zack said remembering the memory clearly.
"Yeah I guess so." Freddy replied.
"An' everyone knew that you and Katie liked each other too, but we didn't really need to interfere there."
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Freddy said happily.
"Man, I'm always right."
"Shut up man."
End of chapter. Please review: I think maybe this chapter was a bit clishaed (urgh I can't spell that word!). Anyway tell me what you think. xxx
