Iris POV

                      Where did she go? it's not like max to hide or run away in the middle of something like this. I decide to head back to the jail and hear someone sobbing

I: maxxie?-

                    I see her hiding in the corner of one of the cells. Sobbing, shaking, her knees up to her chest

I: babe, what's wrong?

                    She's hyperventilating. I kneel down in front of her and move her hair away from her face 

Max: t-there's too much g-going on at o-once i can't deal with all this 

I: max, you don't have to... i'm here, everyone's helping, it's not all on you-

Max: n-no i mean i just can't deal w-with it

I: ...a

Max: i k-know i'm not doing much but it's still really s-stressful and i just want everything to go back to the w-way it was before. I try helping but i-it's never enough i-

                                I put her forehead to mine 

I: hey, it's okay  

Max: i j-just w-wanna help everyone but i-it's not enough and people still think i can't-

I: maxxie... it's not that we think you can't, we KNOW you can... but we all really care about you, we don't want you to burn yourself out... you're stressed, it's perfectly normal
