Beyoncé's POV
I woke up in the middle of the night, hearing slight muttering and it took me a moment to work out I was in Jasmine's room. I looked down at her as she wrapped herself around me, she was dripping with sweat, but when I felt her forehead she didn't have a temperature. I sat up, prying her arms off looking at my phone for the time seeing it was 1:30 in the morning. I yawned and sighed slightly, as I rubbed Jasmine's back and she continued to mutter in her sleep.

"Sh, you're okay." I whispered as flailed around slightly.

"Mo-mom. It hurts." She whined. My heart dropped, as she called out Mom. Did she mean me? Or was she dreaming?

"Come on baby, go to sleep." I whispered.

"It hurts mom. Please make it stop." She cried out in her sleep. Do I try to wake her up? Or just let her sleep it off. There's nothing like seeing your child in pain or sick. It always pained me even more whenever Blue was sick or had fallen over in the park and scraped her leg.

"I'm here Jas. You're okay." I said as she began to stir awake.

"M-mom." She squealed as she stretched.

"Shh." I hushed her, as I brushed the flyaways peeking out from her head wrap with my hand.

"Bey!" She breathed out, shooting up and wrapping her arms back around me, as my heart sunk again. Bey. "It's hurts Bey. It hurts."

"What hurts?" I asked, putting any emotion I had towards the name behind me.

"Everywhere."

"Are you lying?" I asked, picking her chin up with my fingers so she was looking me in the eye.

"No! I- Bey!" She stuttered, her eyes tearing up.

"I don't know what you want me to do? I can't give you anything." I said, full of sympathy, as I unraveled her arms from around my neck, feeling her body heat which only made me feel hot too.

"I'm cold Bey." She said, shivering, trying to cuddle up to me.

"Jasmine, you're sweating."

"It hurts, my stomach hurts!" She said and I felt her heartbeat quicken.

"I know, I know." I whispered, concern and sympathy radiating through my voice. "This is just withdrawals. It'll pass."

"I don't- like it." She stuttered, dry heaving a bit in between.

"You gonna be sick?" I asked, going straight into mom mode, as I sat Jas up and rubbed her back.

"No. My stomach and head just hurts." She replied, but the colour in her face said different, as she went a bit grey.

"You sure?" I double checked and she nodded. "Lie down and go to sleep" I told her yawning. She lay back down and closed her eyes, and after a few moments, when I knew she was asleep, I took a sip of the water next to me before falling back asleep. 6 hours until we had to be up.

I was awoken again a couple of hours later, hearing Jas murmur in her sleep. I tried to block it out and fall back asleep, but something in my gut told me something was wrong. I pulled myself up, and carefully turned her over to face me, taking a look at her tear stained face, as the bed shook and she cried in her sleep.

"Hey, hey, Jas. Wake up baby." I said softly, stroking her cheek.

"It hurts mommy." She cried. Here we go again.

"I know, but you gotta wake up baby girl. Mommy's here." I told her, my voice cracking ever so slightly. It hurt calling myself that to her, knowing that when she wakes up I'll be back to Bey again. But still, I know it'll take time. Baby girl is really suffering through this.
