Max's POV

--------------------------------------

I was awoken (once again) in the middle of the night. This time, there was no one bursting into my tent, this time, there were sobs. Someone was sobbing- right outside my tent.

I could hear David trying to control the sobbing, he was saying, "Shh, it'll be okay. It's going to hurt for a while, but it's going to be okay. I promise."

Huh, kinda sounded dirty to me.

The crying girl choked out, "D-David, I-I don't w-wanna go i-into foster c-care. I-I can't. T-They'll.... Oh god, David...." There was more sobbing. "H-How am I-I going to tell Max?" The girl asked. 

That's when I got up, I was now involved in the situation. I opened the curtain to my tent, to see David hugging a sobbing Y/n. My heart broke, I ran up to her immediately. 'She is crying. Y/n shouldn't cry. Y/n should have it good, she's a good person- she said so herself! She doesn't deserve to cry.' I thought to myself.

"David?" I asked with concern.

David looked up to me, his eyes were red, he was obviously crying too. 'David, the happiest man on the face of the Earth, was crying.' I thought.

David sighed, and the pitter patter of rain started, "Max, let's go to my cabin, we'll talk there." He commanded.

Jesus Christ, David was scary when he wants to be, he's just not acting like himself, and it's really strange- kind of freaky. But that's not the issue we should be worrying about right now, Y/n is.

David lifted up Y/n, whom had gone siglent as soon as I arrived. That's a bad sign. As we walked back, the rain fell harder and harder. I wanted to hug Y/n, I wanted to tell her that everything would be okay.... but I don't even know what the problem is, how do I console her if I don't know what the problem is? I can't.

David opened up the door to his cabin, and placed Y/n on his bed. She sat there silently, with her hands in her lap. David sat next to her and protectively put his arm around her shoulder, as I sat across from them on David's desk chair. I couldn't help but think, 'David would make one hell of a father.'

David sighed deeply, and started talking, "We got a phone call tonight, at about 12:30. It was the police department. They told us that both of Y/n's parents had died in a car accident. Her father was drunk driving, and slammed into a tree when rounding a corner, her mother was in the passenger seat. They both died on impact." He explained.

I was taken back. What do you day to that? What do you say when you just find out both of your girlfriends' parents died? I have never been in this situation before. Y/n had good parents, so this was something I could not relate to. My parents gave up on me when I was four, they never cared for me once, since.

"Oh, Y/n." My voice cracked. Why does the world beat up good people? Why are the best people taken advantage of, and abused? Why would the universe allow this to happen? Thoughts flew through my head, bit David continued talking, and to understand completely I had to listen.

"The officer stated that Y/n has three days to find a legal guardian before she is put into foster care. Y/n has no relatives that have reached out to adopt her..." His voice trailed off, as tears visibly ran down Y/n's cheeks.

I couldn't stand to see her like this, I ran up to her, and hugged her- not caring if David was watching or not. "M-Max..." She choked out. My heart shattered as I heard her whisper my name. Y/n's voice is usually full of excitement and playfulness, now it's empty, with nothing left but pain, sorrow, and grief. She shouldn't sound like that... this shouldn't have happened to her, it should have happened to me.

She cried into my shoulder, and I asked, "David, can we stay the night here?" Patting the bed. David nodded, and pulled out a sleeping bad from under his bed. He took one last sad glance at Y/n and I and layed down, closing his eyes.

Y/n layed down on her side, facing the wall. I spooned her with my arms and felt her shaking body. I pulled up the blankets, covering her in warmth. Y/n took a shaky breath and I whispered, "It'll be okay, Y/n... Just go to sleep, okay babe?" 

Y/n nodded slightly and closed her eyes, soon she fell asleep.

I was still awake, holding Y/n in my arms, contemplating the situation.

'What if I never see Y/n again? What if she is abused in foster care? What if she ends up homeless? Who is going to take care of her? Will she still be herself?' I crossed off the last one in my list of questions, no, Y/n wouldn't be herself. Of course she would be different, she no longer has her parents.

More thoughts race through my brain, 'What will happen to her? Will she start doing drugs? What if she starts cutting? Jesus Christ.... I hope she is going to be okay.... I want my Y/n back... She is the only good thing in my life, the only light.... She said I made her happy, I need to do that again. I need to help Y/n.' 

All I want is for her to be happy. Whether or not that sounds creepy, I don't care. She deserves to be happy, she deserves to be herself.

Now it's up to David and I....I never thought I would say that.
