Note: Sorry I haven't updated in such a long time. There have been some minor complications. PLUS, I apologize for the decrease in the chapter.
Although I would still like some feedback from all of you.
Chapter Six: Complications
She smiled snidely looking at the pale face of the sleeping girl. So sorry Katie dear, she thought, but you took what's mine.
She stepped closer to the heart rate machine and peered at all the dials and buttons; nothing that she understood.
Making sure the room was empty; she pushed the machine slightly, creating a slither of space for her to reach the plug.
She always saw it in the Soap Operas, when the poor defenseless girl had nothing else but to pull the evil girl's plug.
But this girl was neither.
Vanessa considered nothing. If Freddy couldn't love her, then he wouldn't love her either.
Without warning footsteps could be heard from the corridor outside. She jerked the wire and the plug came out.
A loud and eminent beep could be heard.
Sliding under the bed she heard the doctors and nurses come in, flustered and bustling about, trying to see what the problem was with the poor girl.
Then she heard his voice, Freddy's voice, she stiffened and didn't move. She could hear the apparent panic in his voice as he held Katie's hand.
She deserves to die, she thought.
The pressure from the bed was removed and the squeaking of the trolley echoed in the hallway, signaling to her that this was the best time to slip out.
She crawled from under the bed and stood up, dusting any remaining dirt off her clothes.
Stepping to the door, she was stopped when a strong hand grabbed her shoulder.
"What did you do?" Freddy asked spitefully.
Vanessa was caught off guard and stumbled over her words, "Nothing—Katie's—fine—what are—isn't—"
He shook her hard. "What did you do to her?"
"I lost my earrings when I came in here, so I was searching for it under the bed."
She pointed to the gold hoop dangling on her ear, rolling her eyes. "And I came here to see Katie." A sad frown worn upon her face.
"Don't lie to me Vanessa. I trusted you once, but that was a long time ago to me."
Vanessa stared at Freddy hard.
"Don't believe me then," she said finally glaring up at him. It didn't hurt her to stare at him straight into the eye.
She finally figured out, that she had never liked him in the first place. She had done all this to spite Katie. And the more Katie was upset, and drew back into her shell, the happier she was with Freddy because it brought so much joy to her, and suffering for Katie.
And she was glad to bring much more pain and suffering to the two.
Freddy was snapped out of his rage and rushed off to see Katie. He couldn't bear to leave her a minute alone in this state.
Vanessa peered around the frame to make sure he was out of sight. Damn him and his nosy personality, she cursed.
She picked up the plug and slotted it into the hole. She smiled; No one will be the wiser. Without looking back she quickly turned out of the hospital to the streets, disappearing into the massive crowds, to again, never appear near the vicinity.
