'I CAN'T LOSE YOU AGAIN'

Please read the Authors note, it's very important.

Finn unlocked the door letting Mathilda in, but as soon as he walked in he remembered

Millie

He rushed to the bedroom and saw a terrifying sight. Laying on the dresser was some dried heroine, a lighter and a spoon. But Millie was no where to be seen.

"Mathilda! Call 911!"

Finn said running out of the bedroom, he saw the worry on his daughters face. He mouthed 'please' but she still didn't understand what was going on.

"Millie, I don't know where she is, just call and tell them to come over with an ambulance"

Mathilda obliged, dialing 911 as fast as she could as Finn began to search through every room in the house until he reached the last room, the bathroom, which was locked. As scared as Finn was of what he would find behind that door, he knew had to break it down.

With a running start Finn threw his entire body against the door, breaking the door knob and its lock, bursting the door open as he fell onto the bathroom floor. Regaining his balance as he stood up he saw, god he didn't even want to acknowledge what he was seeing. Seeing this was a million times worse than when he heard that he wouldn't be able to see her for five years. He was frozen in place for a few seconds before he left out a loud scream rushing to get Millie out of the tub. Before picking her up her looked her all over, she was extremely pale, her mouth was slightly agape but she was barely even breathing. Panicking Finn grabbed a flashlight and lifted one of her delicate eyelids and flashed the light into her pupils, still reactive, thank god.

Picking her up he heard something drop, looking down in the tub her saw a needle still halfway filled with heroine, that was the source, it was all his fault, he shouldn't have left her alone. Tears fell from his eyes as he carried her bridal style out of the bathroom and into the kitchen, Mathilda froze in place and stopped talking to the operator abruptly when she saw Finn carrying a pale and sick looking Millie.

The operator asked if everything was alright and she said to get there as soon as possible and that they'd be waiting outside, hanging up the phone even though the operator told her not to do so.

On the way down in the elevator Finn mentally cursed him for picking on apartment on the fourth floor. Apartment 4D

"Dad, what's gonna happen to mom?"

Mathilda asked, tears brimming her eyes.

"I don't know sweetie"

He started, sympathy filled his voice, he shouldn't be putting Mathilda through this.

"But she'll be okay right?"

Finn couldn't respond

"Dad! Promise that mom will be okay!"

She shouted, and it was one of the few times Finn took his eyes of the potentially dying girl he loved so much and looked at his daughter sternly

"I can't promise that, Mathilda, I'm sorry"

His voice cracking with every word he said he looked back to Millie,
