Eli stared screaming almost immediately after we put her down. Michael sat with her but it still happened. After Michael had gotten her back to sleep he came down stairs.

"She had her eyes open but she was thrashing and screaming and crying. I don't know what this is and I've never seen it in her before, Luke's gonna be crushed when he finds out." Michael sighed, I touched his shoulder gently.

"I'll take her to the doctors, would that be okay? Maybe they can do something."

"No they won't. If she has was Luke has she'll be considered insane. The only way Luke was cured was...you and your hide away home. Being so far away from everything meant that you were thinking about yourself and concentrating on getting better." Michael seemed so tense.

"I'll help her, I promise." I muttered, resting my hand on his shoulder. He simply sighed, giving me a small content smile.

"You should probably be getting to sleep, thanks for everything though." Michael said, I just nodded and went upstairs to where my daughter was sat on my bed.

"Mom why is Eliora getting scared?" I picked up Caleigh and sat her on my lap.

"We don't know honey. But we're gonna get her help." Caleigh smiled up at me and then removed herself from my lap before walking into her own room.

I crawled under my covers thinking about what I could do? I didn't have any idea. All I could think about was what Michael had said. Was living that far away such a big impact and how could I have helped him?

I had woken up around 6 and failing to get back to sleep I went down stairs.

I made myself a coffee before sitting on the kitchen island. I sipped the coffee as I thought about what to do with Eli. She needed help and fast. I couldn't let her deteriorate in front of her fathers, who'd come so far in their lives.

"Star?"  I turned around to face Michael, suit and all. He had a frown on his face as he watched me.

"What's up?" He asked, I took a deep breath.

"Just worried about Eli." I said softly.

"Please don't be, we'll sort it out?" His words didn't convince me nor himself.

He left after a brief goodbye and I was left to my own thoughts. My mind suddenly thought of Calum, as much as I'd hate to say it, I missed him.

He made me feel so beautiful and special but now he loved someone else and I'd never been so hurt in my entire life.

I'd never fallen in love before but I was positive that Calum was the guy I still loved.

By the time my brain had stopped torturing me, Luke was dressed and ready to leave.

"Hey Star, you okay love?" He questioned.

"I just miss Calum, but I'll get over it." He gave me a weak smile, brief hug and a meaningful kiss on the head.

"I'm sure there's something left."

And with that he left.
