"Cheryl...Cheryl can you hear me darlin.... please wake up"

Simon was gently trying to wake cheryl up as she has fainted in his arms earlier.He had to carry her away from the mad audiance that saw her almost clappsing to the floor had it not been simons arms around her litterletly holding her up. He decided to put her in the judges room on the settee while everyone around him was just frentically running around not knowing what to do.

Her husband decided to go to her dressing room while she lay uncounious in another room.He couldn't bare the dirty looks he was being given.

"Alright guys i think we should just call an ambulance, she's not responding" Simon said after a few more attempts, but got nothing. He looked over to Dannii and saw her bloodshot eyes that were still briming with tears as she was fearing for her best friend. He waved Louis over to come to him.

"Louis i..." He was about to tell louis something but felt a gentle squeeze on his hand making him turn to his left.

"Cheryl, Can you you hear me ?"

"mmh.. Si where am i?" She asked with her eyes still closed.Her response making everyone stop and watch quitely.

"Oh sweetheart, we're in the judges room you fainted earlier..."he was saying but got cut off

"Oh.you don't have to tell me Si, I remember what happened." she replied emotionless

"Here hun, drink some water and we"ll let you relax for a while before you start to stand up again,ok?"

"Yeah Si, that fine" she replied emotionless again.

While she was drinking water oblivious to people just staring, Simon noticed & motioned for everyone to get out.

"Thank you "

"For what, cheryl?" Simon asked cluelessly

"For.just.everything basically Si, thank you for carrying me out of the arena when I fainted, thank you for always being there,thank you for making sure I'm always alright..just basically thank you for being you."

"Oh sweetie, you don't need to say thank you, that's what best friends are for right?"

"Yeah I geuss so it just thank...

"Cheryl!"

"Ok,ok! I'll stop haha"

"Come here" he motioned with his arm for a hug and she fell right into them feeling like all the weight in her shoulders where gone in an instant one she was in his arms.

"Seriously Si I'm just so grateful for a person like you in mi life"

"My life" simon corrected her

"Oi, why do you always have to bloody ruin a moment! huh?"

"And stop taking the mic outta mi accent Si"

"Haha sorry, it just got deep and you know I hate when that happens so I was just simply lightning the mood haha" he replied back humorously.

It was silence for a few mins but it wasn't a bad one it was one of those silences where you're comfortable in and don't have to say a word.

"Where is he?" Cheryl finally asked the question Simon was dreading. He knowing cheryl was gonna ask that question at some time but he was just hoping it was much later.

"In your dressing room, he didn't like the vibe and looks people were giving him " simon answered truthfully knowing she'd want an explanation as to why he wasn't here with her.

Cheryl scoffed at that answer.

"He didn't like the looks people were giving him so went to hide in MY dressing room while I lay unconscious in another Room!" She practically yelled in simon face as they were still in their little embrace.

"Whoa, Chez calm down before you turn me deaf, listen Hun if you go run down these halls yelling; people will start to think you lost it okay, deal with the problems you have behind closed doors nobody needs to know anything alright..

if you want to go see ashley and deal with stuff go right ahead because I think the next couple of auditions might be canceled as we need to back up the security so it'll take a while." He supportively gave her some advice on how to handle the situation.

she noded, agreeing with him and gave him one last squeeze before finnaly leting go and trying to stand up and go face on her problems.

"here let me help you stand up" simon said as he watched her literetly struggle to stand up.He grabbed her left hand hand with his right and put his left arm around her waist pulling her up off the couch.

"Thanks Si" she sighned in that cliche manner when your about to take on a huge problem.

"No problem sweetie" he answered back.

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

they both walk out the door and everyone just turns to look at them both. Dannii rushes over & nearly topples cheryl over but since simon was behind her he lucky caught her.

"haha danni im alright babe, im not gonna go anywhere" Cheryl laughs as she's squeezed to death by her best friend.

"Oh but chez, i was so worried about you babe" she says still hugging cheryl

"alright come here,im fine see no damage done, and plus I had Si catch me; ain't he a hero " she reassured Dannii adding a little sarcasm towards the end..

"Haha yeah he definitely Tries to be one"...saying the 'for you ' in her head."

"Alright tell Louis I'm fine but I have to go to my..uhm.. dressing room at the moment..to..uhm " Cheryl was rambling but Dannii cut her off.

"Yeah babe, I get what you mean,good luck "

Dannii understood her and just hoped it wouldn't cost cheryl anymore pain to her already broken heart but knowing the reality of it, it would probably cause more damage than good and break her Evan more than she already is...

Although cheryl manages to smile a lot, her eyes just don't have that sparkle anymore...shes masking her feelings as a front so everybody thinks she's completely back to normal but the closet of all could see she isn't the same anymore..
