Chapter 27:
After being interviewed by a Detective, Tiffany was startled to see Vera strolling towards her. With a warming smile Vera asked "Tiffany, how are you"
"Detective, I'm fine thanks. You know things are getting better" replied Tiffany as she held Nancy
"Good, we believe we're going to catch Charles, he's killed over 15 people in a matter of days" explained Vera before she suggested "I think he wants to be caught"
"Oh, well...I'm moving on now, I'm just in the hospital because there was a terrible fire" responded Tiffany in the awkward situation
"I'm just visiting a friend" Vera said before she added "I've got to go, but I'll keep you updated on the case"
"Thanks" smiled Tiffany before she waved Vera goodbye. Turning around, Tiffany strolled around the hospital to calm the annoying Nancy, the baby was nauseating and irritating. The cries echoed throughout the hospital before Tiffany stormed into the bathroom, sat the young child on a seat and snapped "fucking shut up". The baby silenced and stared at Tiffany in fear, tears gathered in her eyes before Tiffany grabbed the baby roughly and laughed "lets see if mummy and daddy are dead".
Nervously walking into Draco's room, she found he was awake and seemed quite well. "Nancy" he shrieked with happiness when he noticed Tiffany carrying the young child. "Oh it's daddy" Tiffany laughed as she thought That bastard didn't die. Handing Nancy over to Draco, he smiled happily as he hugged his precious daughter then asked "how is Elizabeth". Tiffany stared at him with a puzzled look before she replied uncaringly "I'm going to check on her in a minute, but I think she's pretty bad...she looked pretty wounded". Draco glanced at Nancy and smiled then looked back at Tiffany and muttered "send her my love".
Resting her hand on Draco's leg, she smiled and replied "I will" then she asked "when are you allowed out, and what's up with you". Draco frowned with sadness as he looked at his legs, then explained "they're broke, the doctors are hopeful they'll heal by themselves. But I'm expected to be in a wheelchair for a while, as long as am okay for Nancy though I don't care, and I should be out by tomorrow".
"How are you going to look after Nancy though" spat Tiffany
"I will take care of her, so will Elizabeth" stammered Draco
"How are you gonna' do this, Elizabeth might not even be well enough... Neither of you are going to be able to care for her, or care for yourselves" claimed Tiffany. Draco thought about it then reassured Tiffany "I'll be fine, I'll find away", he then thought about it again, the reality was that Tiffany was telling the truth. How could he care for his family, with two broken legs. Stopping Tiffany before she left the room, he asked "Tiffany, if me and Elizabeth aren't well enough, will you stay with us for a while... Just till we get healthy enough to be a proper family again". Tiffany looked back at Draco and Nancy, then she smiled "Off course I will". Tiffany left the room, then as she walked down the hallway, she thought I'm gonna' kill these bastards before she cackled evily.
When she entered the emergency ward, she walked calmly down the manic hallway as nurses and doctors rushed past her. Finding Elizabeth's room, Tiffany was frustrated, angry and highly dissapointed to find her alive. Nurse Velmae Lou was standing beside her bed, "Who are you" Velmae asked
"I'm Tiffany" replied Tiffany as she continued to walk towards Elizabeth
"I'm sorry, only family is allowed here" sternly stated Velmae
"Am her sister" lied Tiffany before she gently grabbed Elizabeth's hand
"Oh okay" stuttered Valmae as Tiffany shoved past and sat beside Elizabeth's bed. "Is she going to die" coldly asked Tiffany as she glared at Elizabeth
"No, she's got a steady heartbeat, though she has suffered severe burns on her legs and arms, a stab wound to the shoulder, and severe blood loss. That resulted in her becoming comatous" explained Valmae
"Oh, so... She may not wake up" replied Tiffany as she tried to hide her sly smirk
"That's a chance, but she's most likely to" reassured Valmae
"Well she may not" Tiffany roared, before she jumped from her seat and stormed angrily back to Draco's room. Outside Draco's room, she took several deep breaths as she tried to calm her anger, she couldn't make become suspicious. Bursting into the room, she exclaimed "she's in a coma" then as she fell into the chair beside Draco's bed, she cried "she may not wake up, they didn't say nothing about the baby". A tear rolled down Draco's face, before he hugged Nancy tightly and began to cry into her shoulder. Tiffany sat beside the father and daughter, she grasped hold of Draco's hand and rubbed it gently before she whispered in a caring manner "It'll be okay".
Tiffany walked out of the room to shockingly find Nicole standing there, "Tiffany" she gasped as she rushed over with her arms open wide. Wrapping her arms around Tiffany, she whispered lovingly into her ear "am so happy to see you"
"Aren't you mad" nervously stuttered Tiffany as tears began to gather in her eyes
"Obviously not" whimpered Nicole before she explained "Me and dad don't mind, we know how much you've been through...we understand". Tiffany rushed her fingers through her sisters hair as tears fell down her face "oh god, I've missed you so much".
"How'd you know I was here" questioned Tiffany as she walked with Nicole down to the cafe
"My friend called me, she said she saw you...at first I couldn't believe it, but I knew I had to come. I've been wanting to see you for such a long time" sobbed Nicole
"I've missed you too" cried Tiffany before they once again lovingly hugged eachother. Without Chucky to talk to, Tiffany had been craving for someone to talk to, now she hoped she could talk to Nicole. Stopping at the cafe, they went inside and sat down at a table near the window. After ordering herself and her sister a cup of tea each, Nicole asked with a confused face "So why are you here anyway"
"There was a fire at Elizabeth's...I've been staying with her you see" explained Tiffany before she stated "Elizabeth's in a coma, Draco's okay but his legs are broken and Nancy she's fine thankfully...but most of the house is destroyed". Nicole sat gazing out the window for several seconds, before she asked kindly "would you like to come home"
"My home's a crime scene" mumbled Tiffany before she answered "I'd love to come back, live with you and dad, it'll be good"
"Okay then, well that's settled, you lot are coming home with me" cheerfully replied the delighted Nicole. Tiffany and Nicole walked into Draco's room, he was still crying, but he was trying to hide his tears from Nancy who was crawling around the bed. "Draco" calmly said Tiffany before she explained "since we can't go back in the house, we're gonna' move in with Nicole okay...so I'll take Nancy tonight"
"Are you sure it's okay" asked Draco
"It's fine" smiled Nicole
"Okay" replied Draco before he waved at Nancy as she was picked up by Tiffany, then he shouted lovingly "goodbye my Nancy, I'll see you tomorrow"
"Bye Daddy" Nancy sniffled as she was carried away by the mean Tiffany. Parking outside the her fathers home, memories came flying back at her, happy ones, sad ones, funny ones. All of them hit her at once as she climbed out of the car, smiling at the beautiful manor she whimpered to herself "am home". She was riddled with nerves, she was confused about the kind of reception her father would give her. She tried to calm her nerves by reminding herself that everyone believes that she's just another victim, I was a victim, a hostage...nothing more she told herself in her head. "You ready" laughed Nicole as she passed Nancy to her sister, then opened the front door.
Stepping in it felt as if Tiffany was flying back in time, it seemed as if she was stepping into her old self. The nerdy, unattractive girl who craved beauty and adventure, she didn't want to go back to her former self. Wiping away a small tear that had gathered in her eye, she clutched Nancy as she walked into the livingroom. She was expecting to see her mother sitting there, as she usually would asking were she had been. But she wasn't. Kenneth her father was not there either, she expected him to be sitting there relaxing beside her mother, a cuban cigar in his mouth and the newspaper in his hands. But he wasn't.
It seemed as if it had been hundreds of years since she had been in this house, a house she once considered to be not just her home but her prison. "Darling" echoed throughout the house, Tiffany turned around and saw her father standing there. A glowing smile was wiped across his face as he ran towards her "I've missed you so much" he assured her, before he hugged his daughter and pecked her on the cheek.
"I've missed you to daddy" mumbled Tiffany, before Nicole walked over to her father and explained "There was a fire at Tiffany's friends, so I suggested she could stay here, along with her friends when they get outta' hospital"
"Sure, sure" smiled Kenneth before he hugged Tiffany once again and announced "aslong as I have my two daughters with me, I'm happy". After reuniting with her father, Tiffany took Nancy up to her old bedroom "you can sleep in my room" Tiffany told Nancy before she laid her onto her bed then tucked her in. After leaving Nancy, Tiffany fell onto the floor, her hands hiding her face she cried uncontrollably as memories came flooding back once again. The memories weren't of Chucky, they were of her mother and her family. She had once cherished her family, she thought they were precious, her parents had always doted on there 'princess' and spoiled her. She could remember her families visits to the beach, she could feel the sand between her feet, she could smell the ocean and hear the laughter and chatter of her family. I loved them, and all I've done is cause them shit, yeah they made me angry, but they didn't deserve what I did she thought before Nicole found her crying.
"What's wrong" Nicole asked
"I've just missed you all, I've just missed mother" wailed Tiffany as Nicole cuddled her. That night Tiffany crawled into bed with her sister, just as she had done when she was younger after a horrid nightmare, now it seemed as if she was living in a nightmare.
Waking up the next day, Tiffany instantly remembered the videos and the photograph album. I've gotta' get them, they could land me in jail she thought worryingly before she raced down the stairs. Grabbing her sisters coat, she slipped in on before she snatched her fathers car keys from the table. Running out, she jumped in her fathers car and drove frantically to Elizabeth's house. Parking outside, she jumped out and ran into the house. Nearly all of the furniture had been burnt, everything was a soot black, and piles of ashes were scattered around the rooms. Running into her room, she shrieked with frustration as she found her clothes had been scorched, thankfully though she saved her diary, the videos and the photograph album.
When she returned to the manor, she went into the backgarden and dug a small hole. In the small hole she buried the videos and the photograph album, she decided she'd keep the diary as it'd be a fun hobby and keep her busy. Finally now she could forget about the video's and the album, now she could finally stop worrying. She now had to get a room ready for Draco, he was being discharged the next day so she needed to change one of the spare rooms into a bedroom for him and Nancy. She had big plans for Draco while Elizabeth was out the way.
