ch.2 forget what happened

January 21 2019
Zach's Pov
my eyes shoot open and i look over quickly to see Madison sleeping peacefully beside me. i let out a huge sigh of relief and pull her closer to me. i thought yesterday was just a dream.

minutes go by and i feel her move a little. i look over and she rubs her eyes tiredly then buries her face in my chest.

"good morning" i smile softly

she mumbles something against my chest and wraps her arms around me.

"i want to sleep" she mumbles as she moves her head to the side

"it's like 1pm Madison" i softly say

she closes her eyes and groans.

"i wanna sleep forever" she tiredly says she cuddles into the blanket.

"come on princess you need to go eat" i tell her

she doesn't answer and tries to fall asleep but i take the blanket off the bed and sit up.

"madison we're not going threw this again" i say

"stop" she mumbles and hugs a pillow

i go to say something else but cameron walks into the room.

"you guys are finally awake" he laughs a little

"ya she just woke up and wants to sleep again" i say

"the doctor said you need to eat by 1:30 at the latest to take your medicine mads" Cameron says as he walks over to the bed.

"i don't care" she says then turns around

"get up and eat. now" he sternly says

she sits up and says something in Arabic. he crosses his arms over his chest at what she said and one thing leads to another and they're almost yelling at each other in Arabic.

"Zach get out so i can knock some fucking sense into my sister" Cameron almost yells at me

my eyes go wide and i back out of the room and close the door.

"what's happening" Jack asks me

"she didn't want to eat and take her medicine and now they're yelling at each other" i say

"why does she do this to herself" he mumbles

They're yelling gets louder and i can hear the cries madison's letting out and the pain in Cameron's voice as they say each word.

Jack and i sit on the floor in the hall, waiting for madison to finally come around and take the medicine and eat. the other boys look up worriedly but i tell them to leave.

"YOU MAKE ME WISH I ACTUALLY DID DIE CAMERON" we hear Madison yell, finally in english

jack and i look at each other wide eyed and everything goes silent.

"Madison, you don't mean that" cameron softly says "i just want you to eat and take your medicine. please" he continues

they finally walk out and Madison doesn't even acknowledge our presence and walks downstairs.

"i'm sorry about that" cameron says then quickly follows her downstairs

Madison's pov
the day goes by and my whole family comes by and all my friends. it's just a busy day and i want to sleep.

"so what are you going to do about school" Johnny asks me

"i'm going back on monday" i answer

"you need time to rest mads" Annie says with a worried tone in her voice

"don't rush yourself" Corbyn adds

"i want everything to go back to normal. school and work are continuing where i left off" i say

"madison take a little break" william says as he sits beside me

"if i take anymore then i won't graduate" i tell him

"what" Zach asks confused

"the principle said, i've missed enough classes already for me not to graduate but he said it's fine, as long as i don't take anymore" i explain

"i'm sure he'll understand what happened.." Hayden starts but i cut him off

"i just want to go back to how it was ok" i quietly say

the room falls into a silence. the silence is nice and calm, something i feel like i need. soon enough, my thoughts disturb the calming silence. i keep thinking back on what happened the past couple weeks and it makes me so angry and sad, like i want to explode. i feel my heart beat out of my chest and i want to pull my hair out and bang my head against a wall in hopes of forgetting.

a rush of anger goes threw my both and my hand forms a tight fist. i get up and immediately everyone's eyes are on me but i pretend i don't recognize their eyes staring into me, and sit beside zach on the other couch. it's almost like the warmth of his body calms me down. i lay my head on his chest, listening to his heart beat in my ear.

"everything ok now" zach softly says as he lightly rubs my back.

"take things a little slow for now, don't rush into anything" corbyn smiles softly

"if you ever need anything, we're all here for you" Johnny adds

"thank you guys" i softly say

we fall into another silence but this time it's nice and calm and nothing's interrupting it. i close my eyes and smile, knowing i'm surrounded by everyone i love.

"how about we forget about this for now and i can do your hair and makeup for fun" Annie suggests

"ya and we can go buy your favourite food" Corbyn says

"oh my god we should buy mario cart and have a tournament" Johnny smiles

"maybe it's best if we leave her alone" William says, because i had no reaction to what they're saying.

"babe if you want to sleep it's fine" zach quietly tells me

I should just move on with my life, i can't let this make me sad forever.

"ya'll better be prepared cuz i'll beat you all" i say as i stand up.

"oh my god so we should go to target!" Corbyn excitedly says as he stands up

"woo let's go!" Johnny smiles

"let's go do your hair" Annie says as she stand up

time skip
All the boys, my brother, Annie and I all played mario cart until pretty late. They really got my mind off of everything and i'm so happy. it feels nice being surrounded by people you love.

William, Annie and Johnny went home and everyone here fell asleep except for Zach and I.

"i came here thinking it was for your funeral. you have no idea how horrible i felt" Zach quietly says as he shuts the door to my room

"you won't loose me that easily" i smile

"i hope i never do" he softly says "just take it easy" he says as he sits beside me

"don't worry zach" i say as i give him a peck on his lips

we get in bed and i cuddle up beside him, letting out a huge sigh of relief that i feel i've been holding for a while. i'm home, im safe, my family and friends are safe. that's all that matters.

a.n: pLOt tWIsT she actually died and this is heaven!
