There is no pain. That’s how you know something is wrong.

There is only stillness—heavy and distant, like the world has stepped away from you. Your body doesn’t answer when you try to move. Your chest doesn’t rise.Youre in complete darkness.Everything feels… suspended.

Then you hear him.

“No. No—no, no, no…”

Reed.

His voice is close, fractured in a way you’ve never heard before. You feel arms around you, strong but shaking, holding you against his chest as if he can keep you here by force alone.

“Stay with me,” he whispers. “Please,Sue Please.”

You realize.

You’re dead.

Reed cradles your face in his hands, thumbs brushing your cheeks like he’s trying to convince himself you’re real. His forehead rests against yours. His breath is uneven, breaking apart with every word.Then,he places one final kiss to your mouth.You cant feel it.You dont even know.You cant hear anymore..its only faint murmers.

Then…you feel a sudden heaviness ontop your chest.Its Franklin.Your boy…And hes special.

*You suddenly feel the feeling in your fingers come back-and then-Youre awake.Gasping for air but awake.
