The Bound Fedora

Chapter 22: Perpetual Affliction

Sidney drove to a few places in the area she hadn't been to yet checking out a small strip mall a few miles away. The whole way there and back she felt Freddy's eyes on her, but he never joined her. It was really starting to get to her not having him there. She didn't have anyone to talk to anymore, even the few times she directed her thoughts at him he never responded. While she was looking through the stores she had to stop herself a few times from talking to herself out loud. Staring at the picture of her brother she started to realize just how much she hated being alone, and she didn't want to get used to it either.

Dammit Freddy I know you can hear me. Stop avoiding me. You can't keep this up forever! She waited a few moments and still no reply. Fine. When I sleep tonight I'm not just going to sit around and be bored out of my fucking mind again. I'm coming to you whether you want me to or not. You can't stop me. The desperate girl warned hoping that'd get him to at least say something back, but still nothing.

"You know what fine then!" She screamed out and punched the headboard as hard as she could, bruising her knuckles. There's no way he could avoid feeling her pain and it pissed her off even more as an hour went by and still nothing even with the bruises forming on her hand.

Freddy sat rubbing his bruised hand as he watched her in silence. He'd like to see her try and take advantage of him in his own world. There was no way she could get to him if he didn't want her to. "She can't get to me." He assured himself as he continued to watch her.

As much as he didn't want to be near her he still ended up watching her all day. It's not like he had much to do with himself. He stopped listening in on her thoughts and watched her in silence for a few hours and after seeing her sit in front of her computer with an evil smile on her face he decided to listen in on her thoughts again instantly regretting it.

Sidney decided to visit a few of the sites she used to read fanfiction on when she was younger finding some really good smutty ones to read. Once she found one she thought would work best she directed her thoughts at Freddy the whole time she read it imagining in her head doing all the different things it described as if she were doing them with him. The demon tried to block her out but it was no use. Suddenly her thoughts became images in his head causing him to become painfully hard.

"Ooh that clever little bitch." He growled attempting to block her from sending her thoughts to him with no luck. She kept it up for half an hour before getting frustrated, still having no response from him. Freddy did his best to ignore her, he even stopped watching her for a while and sharpened his blades at his workbench. It did nothing to distract him, but he never once responded to her mental torture she was trying to put him though.

Sidney took a shower to calm herself down before going to get dinner. It was really starting to piss her off with her how much she was trying to get his attention and still getting no response. Not only that but she was also getting annoyed with herself wishing she didn't crave his attention in the first place. She knew he'd want to avoid her once the link was weakened but she didn't think he'd completely ignore her like he had been for almost a week now. Maybe after everything he'd put her through she was finally actually crazy, maybe the link really was responsible for him ever wanting her in the first place and now it was gone. Sitting on her bed she thought on it some more, the more she thought about it the more it pissed her off and she ended up punching the headboard again making her wince in pain and she did it again and again until they bled.

"Dammit Freddy just say something! You can't avoid me forever!!!" She yelled and buried her face into the pillows screaming until she ran out of breath.

Freddy watched her as she laid there in bed staring angrily off into nothing.

"What the fuck have I done?" He sighed as he pulled her to sleep. She didn't even know she wasn't awake and still laid there in her hotel bed staring at the ceiling. He wanted to just go to her but waited until she got to her feet. Before she could take a step he appeared right in front of her and grabbed her hard by the shoulders and slammed her into the wall as he healed her hands.
