Sirens (Cheryl fanfic)

Chapter 50

Max's P.O.V.

I'm in the corner of the room curled up sat on the floor as I can hear mam's cries downstairs. I can't sleep knowing my family is a mess and it was all because of me. I caused all this and God knows how much I wanted to go downstairs to fix the mess I made but mum said to stay here.

Sometimes I wish mam never went to the orphanage 6 months ago. Maybe then she wouldn't of met me. Then she will be living a completely normal life. Maybe I'd die and she'll never get hurt cause she doesn't know me. Or sometimes I wish I died sooner then I wouldn't be seeing her in this state which is my weakness.

I think my time is near cause I haven't had an attack for a while and I think when the next one comes I might not going to make it and I can already feel its just round the corner.

I don't know what exact date will I die. I keep asking myself How will I know if its already the time? But aI can't seem to figure out the answers.

I rest my head on my knees as my eyes fall heavy. I wrapped my arms around my legs and let sleep take over.

Katy's P.O.V.

Its already seven in the morning and I haven't slept a wink. Cheryl kept me up all night. We stayed up until one in the morning cause she won't stop crying then she started to have nightmares so I stayed up all night looking out for her. Honestly, I'm very very tired. My head hurts so much cause of jetlag and lack of sleep. I haven't checked Max yet if she slept well last night.

"Mmmm" I look to my side and saw Cheryl stirring in her sleep. Then her puffy eyes slowly flickered open landing on me so I gave her a small smile which she returned with a sad smile.

I slide down to her level and got on my side looking at her. As I stare into her chocolate eyes, all I can see is pure sadness. She's broken, so this is why Max doesn't want her to know cause she'll turn into this.

"You feeling alright?" I whispered as I tucked the pieces of hair covering her face and tucked it behind her ear. She looks down before shaking her head and I feel tears coming on again. So I moved closer and take her in my arms. We stayed in that position for minutes enjoying each others company in a comfortable silence. Its a good thing I'm here now. Cause my girls need me. I glance up the clock to see that its already eight. How time flies by so quickly.

"Baby, We need to check up on Max." I said to Cheryl and she lets out a sniff as she sat up straight. She'll definitely getting a cold.

"Go make breakfast, I'll check on her." Cheryl whispered. As she sat in the middle of the bed fiddling with her fingers. I nodded and got out of the bed. I touched her cheek making her look up to me and at the same time, I leaned forward and give her a soft kiss.

"Goodmorning." I whispered as I pull away.

"Morning" She smile.

"I'll meet you two downstairs." She nodded and I planted a kiss on her forehead before pulling away completely and made my way out of the room.

Cheryl's P.O.V.

The events last night are still raw to me.I can't get it off my head. I see reality the moment I saw what's written on that paper and notebook. And the thought that Max will be gone anytime is breaking my heart. I only spent 6 months with her and I'm still looking forward to spend more time with her.

I took a deep breath before getting off the bed and walked out of the room closing the door behind me. I slowly made my way to Maxene's door. I composed myself cause I know the tears will start as soon as I see her.

I knocked softly on her door before turning the knob opening it. I slowly step inside to see an empty bed making my eyes widen and I start to panick but a figure stop me in my tracks and some kind of relief washes over us.
