Chapter Five: Dirty Job

Bella's POV

Another 40 minutes passed waiting in silence, just watching nurses and doctors walk up & down the corridor, or go in & out of doors.

Lewis began to speak softly, but just loud enough that we could all hear him. "Has anyone called Zane?" There was silence while we looked at each other, hoping someone had done 'the dirty job', before Cleo said "Who is going to tell him? He'll be crushed." There was more silence before Will added "It's gotta be one of us. The police would call her dad, but not him, and I don't think her dad would call Zane either." I was the next to speak saying "I think it should be one of you boys." Cleo agreed with my proposition & there was more silence. "I'll do it" said Will getting his phone out of his pocket. "Thanks" Cleo, Lewis & I all said to him before he nodded, took a deep breath, hit a few buttons on his phone before he put it up to his ear and walked off.

After 2 minutes of the 3 of us sitting in silence, Will walked back into the corridor and we all looked up at him expectantly, but not saying a word, before he said "He'll be here in a few minutes." We nodded, not knowing what to do next, which is really surprising for me and my group of friends. Will sat down next to me like before he made the call, and then silence again filled the corridor.

After 5 minutes Lewis said "Hey, where is Rikki's dad?" I replied, not moving with "He's in Western Australia visiting Rikki's aunty for 2 weeks." This was followed by more silence.

Another 20 minutes of silence elapsed before a brunette haired boy, our age went racing up to the receptionist desk, which we could just see around the corner from our seats. "Rikki Chadwick" he said before Will called out "Zane, we're over here."

As Zane walked over I noticed how bad he looked. His face was damp, his brown eyes were surrounded by red and he was wearing an expression I had never seen on him before, Fear. Zane Bennett feared nothing & nobody; he basically swam in his own confidence and ego, yet here he was, with the emotion written clearly, all over his face.

As he came over to us he asked "Any news?" but just received headshakes and apologetic looks.

Another 4 hours of silence, discomfort & fear went by. We took turns going up and asking for updates or if they knew anything else, and each time we came back with the same negative answer.

Then just as Cleo & I were reading our 6th & 7th magazines, a doctor came out of a room, and was walking straight towards us.

When the doctor walked over to us, we all stood up, out of our seats.

When he got closer, he asked us "Are you here for Rikki Chadwick?" and before anyone else could answer, Zane asked "How is she?" The doctor sighed and began saying "I won't lie to you. She has sustained some very serious injuries from the accident, and she's in a critical condition, but my team and I have done all that we can to help her for the time being, but all we can do now is wait and-" but he was cut off by Zane, who looked so angry& distressed. Then he yelled at the doctor "WHAT DO YOU MEAN ALL WE CAN DO IS WAIT? DO WE JUST SIT AROUND & TWIDDLE OUR THUMBS AND WAIT, WHILE RIKKI IS IN THERE FIGHTING FOR HER LIFE? YOU'RE A FREAKING DOCTOR! DO SOMETHING! IF YOU DON'T I WILL GET HER TRANSFERRED TO A BETTER HOSPITAL AND I WILL TAKE LEGAL ACTION!"

We were trying to calm down Zane who had just said what we had been thinking, just with less anger involved. The doctor then began to speak saying "Young man I understand what you must be going through, but trust me, we have done absolutely everything that we can do to help her and give her the best chances at this stage, we just have to wait to see if she has brain swelling or damage."

I think the five of us paled as the doctor said that. Will then mustered up the courage to say "What other injuries has she got?" We all teared up as the doctor told us "it's not pretty. She has a severely broken arm & wrist, a broken ankle & leg, numerous deep cuts & wounds & five broken ribs."

It was Zane who asked the next question, "Will she be okay?" He looked totally shattered at his girlfriend's health. "At this stage we can't tell, but if she makes it through the night her chances are doubled or even tripled" the doctor said.

The five of us decided to stay the night at the hospital, even if it meant sleeping in the damn uncomfortable chairs, we just needed to be there for Rikki, and each other.
