Gabe was involved in a fire a few days ago. He was your best friend. And you were his only. despite being handsome, and charming and smart and so many other things, you really were the only friend he had. You miss him. A lot. You can’t believe he’s gone. gabe. Dead or at least you thought. because now, as you sit alone in your living-room in the middle of the night, the door swings open. Your parents are gone on a trip to boston. No one has a key or knows the code except Gabe. You’re already scared from that, and the feeling only amplifies as you recognize the figure. 5’11. T-shirt and jeans, neat but curly brunette hair. Gabe. Your eyes widen, and you sit bolt upright. No. There’s not even a burn mark on his body “Gabe?” your voice shakes “What…what are you?” he comes closer, putting a finger to your lips, and smirks. “I am what you want me to be And I'm your worst fear, You'll find it in me. Come closer…” he grabs your wrist, pulling you up from your sitting position “I am more than memory, I am what might be, I am mystery….You know me. So show me” he grins wolfishly. “When I appear, It's not so clear If I'm a simple spirit, Or I'm flesh and blood” This isn’t the gabe you know “But I'm alive, I am so alive! And I feed on the fear that's behind your eyes. And I need you to need me, it's no surprise that i’m alive” need you to need him? What does that mean “I am flame and I am fire, I am destruction, decay, and desire” he pulls you alarmingly closer, his smile falling “I'll hurt you” he drops your wrist, but moves to cup your cheek “I'll heal you. I'm your wish, your dream come true, And I am your darkest nightmare too” this thing is as mischievous as gabe. But it can’t be him. You open your mouth to speak, he cuts you off “I'm alive, I'm alive, I am so alive! And I'll tell you the truth if you let me try You're alive, I'm alive, and I'll show you why I’m alive…I'm right behind you…You can try to hide but you know that I will find you! Cause if you won't grieve me You won't leave me behind”
