Chapter 25 - Out Of It!

There was talk of everyone doing something to burn off their energy so some will be going to see a movie, some go cycling and others going to the hotel gym. Fifi wasn't sure what she wanted to as she was feeling exhausted, struggling to stay awake even if she did want to hang out. Maddie decided to go with Harry and whoever he was budding up with. As soon as Fifi and Maddie saw some of th tourist landmarks, they were excited about being in London! They see Big Ben, Buckingham Palace and The Big Eye. The bus made it through all th traffic to where their hotel is and no one could wait to get to their rooms, to relax before going out. 
Hoping to rejuvenate herself, Fifi goes to have a shower and Maddie nips over to Harry's room for a moment before coming to get ready to go back out. As usual Fifi gather her toiletries ready and then steps into the shower.nmeanwhuke Maddie is with Harry and Nick, they arrange to meets up in around an hours time to go down to the hotels gym. She makes her way back to her room whom she shared with Fifi, happy as Larry.
Letting hersef into the room, she hears the shower running and goes to start getting some fresh clothes out ready to put on after she's freshened up. She calls out to Fifi but gets no reply, so she grabs her things for the bathroom and places them on the floor. Them she knocks but still no answer which is unlike Fifi to not answer back so she lets herself in and is shocked when she sees her crumpled up in the shower cubicle. She runs over to open the glass door and quickly fathoms how to turn the shower off. Then she pulls a towel of its rail to cover Fifi the best she can, and goes to get her phone. She dials Harry and asks him to come as quick as he can. While she's waiting for him to come, she tries to wake Fifi up but with no luck. Harry finally comes and after asking what's happened; carries her over to the bed, Maddie covers her with the bed blanket. They try to bring her back round. Eventually, she comes to and starts to panic at what's going on...

"Huh, why am I here? I.. I was in the shower..."

"You passed out, I came back and four you slumped in there. I phoned Harry to help. Are you okay?"

"Yeah, it must have just got too hot but yeah I'm fine."

"You were out of it Fifi, poor Maddie was worried sick because she couldn't get anything out of you."

"Thank you, I'll be alright. Think I'll just go straight to bed rather than going out, the long flight has took it out of me. Thank you for helping her, Harry."

"It's okay. I'll stay here and keep you company, if you'd like me to?"

"Oh no, you take Maddie to wherever you's are going. I'll just be asleep anyway."

Maddie sits there looking at Harry, torn at what to do but realises that she has a struggle on her hands if she stays in so reluctantly agrees to go out as planned.

"Anything we can get for you while we're out?"

Fifi lays there silent thinking and only has one request...

"Just one thing though, please don't tell anybody about me passing out. I don't want anyone worrying. Especially Nick or Alex.... I don't want pity or fussing over nothing."

"Okay Fifi. Phone us if you need anything."

"Thank you. Have fun?!!"

They all say goodbye and the couple leave. Fifi manages to get herself into her nightwear and climbs into bed, then she falls asleep. Maddie and Harry meet Nick in the gym. While the two guys busy themselves with their training, she goes onto the treadmill near where they are. They spend the next hour doing various exercises and then they shower off, before going to get a bite to eat in the hotel deli. There, they chat and have a laugh. When Nick goes to the toilet, Maddie tells Harry about all the times Fifi has been unwell lately and expresses her worry. He tries to reassure her but encouraged her to get Fifi seen by a doctor at some point. Seeing Nick coming back, they change the subject hoping he doesn't twig. He does actually ask about her but they just come up with the excuse that she's talking on the phone to back home. Thankfully he buys it but they both feel bad for lying. Not long after, the trio part ways and each go to their rooms. When Maddie gets back to hers, she checks on Fifi before getting ready for bed.
