Maggie Cries Novels & Stories

The room was filled with heavy silence as the family tried to process the overwhelming emotions of the moment. The scene was complete chaos, and I could feel the horror creeping up on me as I watched Maggie rush towards the body. Her face was filled with panic and despair. She went near it and shouted, "Ollie!!! Get up!! No, this can't happen!! Please see me!! It's me, Maggie." Her voice shook with fear and desperation as she cried out to her friend. I tried to intervene and drag her away from the body, but Maggie refused to move. She was inconsolable, and the overwhelming grief she felt was palpable.

*Axel* Maggie’s screaming rips through my silent defenses, and I’m compelled to fling myself to her side. I have to blink furiously to clear my eyes of the nightmare I am clearly witnessing, only to find that it’s all very real. Liam watches in horror as Maggie thrashes around, gurgling out sobs of pain. I try to touch her, but her movements make grabbing a hold of her near impossible.

I try to let go of Maggie's hand but her grip only tightens. I look over to Emma and see that she is also trying to break free of Maggie's death grip. And just as soon as her blood curdling scream begins, the sound of silence erupts like a volcano as Maggie's body goes crumbling to the ground. Unconscious.

I saw how she acted towards her “She doesn't look okay. As a matter of fact, she looks like she's going to die any moment from now” Maggie responded “Fred! Look at me '' At this point, I was sweating profusely. Just the thought of losing my mate was enough to give me a panic attack

Hasn’t this just been a wonderful day. With a herculean effort, Maggie managed to keep her expression blank as she picked her way down the porch stairs. Once out the door and on the way to her SUV, however, her resolve broke and tears began to roll down her face. She covered her mouth with one hand forcing back the sob that wanted to escape. She wouldn’t give Dani the satisfaction of knowing how much she had hurt her. Better she just thought she was angry.

Alyssa came over with a platter of fruit, not letting Rosie help out. Maggie sat stiffly on the couch, not daring to touch a single thing or move. It was as if she'd been bound by a strong rope. "Do you want any juice? Coffee? Tea? I can get you some," Jasper said gently with a calm expression. Maggie glanced at Alyssa, then at Jasper, before bursting into tears. The tears streamed down her cheeks, falling on her tightly clasped hands in her lap. "Don't cry, Ms. M-Maggie." Panicked, Xavier quickly gave Maggie several tissues.

Her cheeks puffed, and her eyes watered. “Don’t you dare,” Ashley warned. But it was too late. Maggie burst into laughter, doubling over. “I’m sorry! I tried—but that ending? I couldn’t help it!” she giggled. “Is it funny to you?” Ashley asked, scowling. “A little,” Maggie said between laughs. Ashley rolled her eyes and waited for her to calm down. “Okay. Okay, I’m done,” Maggie finally said, wiping tears from her eyes. “You sure?” Ashley asked.

I wasn’t sure what to feel as I obliged her. Wincing softly at the stitch in my side where my surgery scar was knitting. And moving slowly to take the seat Luna Natalie had left. “Hey.” My own voice sounded foreign as I chuckled. “Well… this is awkward.” Maggie’s lips formed the ghost of a smile and we both chuckled. I sobered up, while she still laughed softly. Raspy little sounds that thickened as she burst into sobs. I froze. “I’m sorry.” Maggie’s voice pierced the silence. “I’m so sorry.” She sobbed shaking. “For all of it. For our childhood. For the bullying— For the- the blood drive. For- “

"Stay away from me." Mrs. Maggie could feel her heart being torn in half, her heart starting to bleed. This is just a dream, right? Why does Hodja treat her the same as Vivian? Sadness welled up inside her, threatening to overpower, flooding through her body but to shed tears now would mean she was dead to them, she would never let this happen. "I have no choice. Vivian didn't tell me..." Mrs. Maggie fell silent. Hodja's eyes, if possible, widened even more, and he became serious.

I only hope that in the next life, I won't let him down. I closed my eyes in agony, forcing back the tears that threatened to fall. Only then did I understand why Maggie had arrived at the end of her life with so much regret. Scotty was the one thing she'd never gotten over, the greatest unresolved regret of her life. "Okay, Maggie," I said hoarsely. "I agree." The moment the words left my mouth, a satisfied smile appeared on her face. The hand that had been gripping my wrist slowly loosened and fell away.
