Septiishu's Little Girl

My Darling

Signe's POV
I had just finish putting Tig to bed. I tucked her in and gave her a kiss on her head and left the room, making sure to close the door quietly. I tip toe down the hallway and into mine and Sean's room. Sean was already in bed, scrolling on his phone. I get undressed and searched in Sean's draw for one of his shirts. I decide on which one I wanted and put it on. I turned off the light and shut the door and got in beside Sean. He smiles when he sees me and places his phone on his nightstand and pulls me to his chest and kisses my head.

"Goodnight baby. I love you." He says before wrapping the blankets around us and wrapping his arm around my waist and closing his eyes.
I smile and kiss his nose.

"Goodnight. I love you too." I say and closed my eyes and soon drifting off to sleep.

~"Sean?! Sean? Where are you?!" I shout whilst running down the stairs into the dark hallway. I was surrounded by darkness, unable to see anything. I slowly walk down the hall. My bare feet shaking slightly from the draft that was making its way out from the kitchen. I gently push the door open to reveal a silhouette of a person lying on the floor. My breath hitches as I walk closer to it. At the exact moment, the moon came out from behind a cloud and light came through the bare window, lighting up the silhouette.
I gasp.
"Se-Sean..." I say shakily.
He didn't move. He lay there motionless. I kneel down and touch his skin. He was stone cold. His face was pale as a ghost. I knew something wasn't right. I shook him gently.
"Sean...wake up, please." I begged.
I knew he was dead but I did everything I could to wake him up. But I couldn't. It looked like he had been dead for hours. Tears fall down my cheeks, hitting the wooden floor beneath me. I stood up and backed away from the body. My back hit the wall behind me. I cry more. My soul mate was dead...
My mind then went to Tig. Where was she? Is she alright? I ran out the room and raced upstairs to Tig's door. My hand shakily made its way to the door handle. I twisted the door knob and opened the door. I peered in and looked around. I then looked at her bed. I saw her lying there. I made my way over and noticed that her blanket had been draped over her body. I reached my hand to the top of the blanket and unrevealed Tig who looked like she was peacefully sleeping. But I knew that she wasn't. She was pale, just like Sean was. Her lips were blue. Her skin cold to the touch.
I broke down. Knowing she was gone. I sat on her bed and lift her small lifeless body into my arms and held her to my chest, not wanting to let her go.
"Baby girl...who did this to you? Who hurt you?" I said, knowing she couldn't answer me.
I didn't want to believe that she was gone. I couldn't handle her and Sean both dead. I lay her down on her back and performed CPR. Pushing on her chest and doing mouth to mouth. But I got no response. It was too late.
I picked her up and sobbed into her brown curly hair.
"Wake up...wake up for momma. Please...don't leave me. Don't go to Daddy" I cried.
I held her for what seemed like hours but was only a few minutes.
I then heard movement. I stayed silent and listened. I heard footsteps walking down the hall. My back was facing the door so I couldn't tell who or what it was. I stayed silent and held Tig's body to mine. I wouldn't let what ever this thing was hurt her again. I know she was already dead, but I would take any pain to keep her safe in my arms.
It was silent for a while so I pushed the noise to the back of my mind, thinking it was just my imagination.

I then hear deep breathing...

It was behind me...

"SIGNE! Baby girl, wake up!" I hear a voice shout.
My eyes shoot open to reveal Sean who had fright in his eyes. I sat up and looked around.
"Baby girl, are you ok?" Sean asked me.
I didn't respond. I didn't know how to. Instead, I reached my hands up and touched his face. I felt his warm skin beneath my fingers. I smile and little and ran my fingers through his soft hair. He smiles, knowing I was ok. I then rushed out of our bed and ran out the room and straight into Tig's room. She was sleeping away, holding Woolly close to her.
"Tig?" I whispered.
She slowly opens her eyes and looks at me.
I coaxed her up into my arms, not giving her time to adjust what was happening. Instead, she yawns and snuggles up to my chest. I guess she was use to being woke up like this since she tags along with me and Sean for tours and visiting family. I tear up and hold her close. Sean comes in confused on why I left so quickly. He sits beside me and uses his finger to lift up my chin to look at him.
"What happened? Did you have a nightmare?" He asks.
I nodded. He sighs and pulls me to his chest gently, not wanting to wake Tig.
"Baby, this is the 4th night you've woken up like this. Are they that bad?" He asks, looking at me.
I nodded again.
"I know I've asked you this question before and you always refused to answer, but...what was it about?" He asked.
I take a deep breath and looked into his bright blue eyes that I always fall in love with.
"I always wake up to find you and Tig dead..." I whispered.
"Oh baby." He says and hugs me. "That will never happen to us."
I breathe in his scent and smile slightly.
"In the morning, I'm taking you to the doctors to see if they can do anything about this. You're lacking on sleep because of this and it isn't good for you, especially with the tour coming up. I need you up and ready for this. Not only is this tour gonna be a handful, it's gonna be a handful trying to keep Tig entertained throughout it." He says.
I sigh.
"Are you sure you don't want her to stay at Felix and Marzia's? She'll enjoy it there and not have to worry about big crowds." I say.
"I know, but I want her to experience this with us. She is growing up with two YouTubers. You never know, she might want to know what it's like and it might prepare her for her future." He says.
I smile.
"Do you think she'll become a YouTuber?" I asked.
He nods.
"Definitely. Imagine her having her own channel. I already know the perfect name. 'Tig and Woolly's Incredible Adventures'. " he says.
I chuckle and smile at the thought of Tig being a teenager and having millions of subscribers and selling her own merch.
As soon as I calmed down, we went back to bed. I brought Tig with us, not wanting to sleep by herself. I place in her the middle of us and Sean kisses her head. Tig managed to carry on sleeping, not interested in mine and Sean's conversation. We talked to her about her own channel and how we're gonna protect her and love her until we die.
