《The Midnight Man》Chapter 10 - Is Cindy really ok?
Advertisement
Madison walked into Cindy's room at almost 8.00 and sat in her bed. Keira walked in and turned off the lights so they could all go to sleep.
"Goodnight." They all said in unison before lying down and falling asleep soon after.
"Madison!" May whisper-shouted while shaking Madison back and forth. "Madison, wake up!" Madison opened her eyes and was surprised when she saw it was dark outside.
"What do you want, May?" Madison groaned, still half asleep.
"I want you to wake up!"
"Urghhhh, but why" She whined pulling the blanket over her head
"It's Cindy. Somethings wrong with her..."
"Urgh!" Madison groaned before sitting up and walking over to Cindy's bedside. "She looks fine, May!"
"No, she doesn't. Turn on the light and see for yourself!"
"Fine." Madison walked sleepily to the light and turned it on. She gasped when she saw Keira sitting up in her bed, looking concerned. "Keira? What are you doing awake?" Madison questioned.
"I'm worried about Cindy,"
"She looks fine, though!"
"Her face is bright red!" Keira bellowed, pointing at Cindy
"Oh," Madison said when she saw Cindy. Her face was bright red and sweat was pouring from her body. "It's fine! You guys are just overreacting! She's probably just having another nightmare! Just go back to sleep! It's too early for this," Madison said, crawling back into bed after turning the light off.
"But what if-"
"Go to sleep, Keira,"
"But, Madison, I-"
"Go to sleep!" Madison exclaimed. Keira sighed.
"Fine, but if Cindy dies, you're to blame!"
"I don't care," Madison said before pulling the blanket over her face and going to sleep.
