It was Supposed to be Us

Twelve

POV-Luke

I woke up to Reggie sleeping in my arms. I kissed his forehead and waited for him to wake up. This sounds creepy, but I loved watching him sleep. He always looked so peaceful and content. And I could stare at him all day.

"Stop staring at me," Reggie spoke.

"I wasn't staring at you," I defended myself. "I was admiring you."

Reggie opened his eyes, and even though they were clouded with sleep, I could still see the beautiful mix of blues and greens. I love his gorgeous peacock colored eyes. Just looking into his eyes I could see ocean blue, emerald green, and mixes of the two. And as he woke up a little more, the colors became more clear. I loved his face so much. Specifially his eyes, but his lips were always warm and soft. And his nose fit his thin face pefectly. And his eye brows were just the right amount of thick and thin. And his eye lashes were just a little bit feminine, but it suited him perfectly. And don't get me started on the rest of his body. I swear, I fall in love with this boy everytime I look at him.

"You're still staring," Reggie pointed out.

"Well I'm sorry there's a beautiful man in my bed," I smiled at him.

"Where?" he asked. "All I see is an ape."

"Wooowwwwww. Love you too."

"He-he. I'm sorry, baby. I love you."

"I know. Who wouldn't love me."

"Cocky."

Reggie got up and fell to the floor. Of course I laughed, but when I leaned over the side of the bed and saw nothing but the carpet, I freaked.

"Jesus fuck, Reggie!"

I ran out of the room and raced as fast as I could down stairs, were I found Reggie half inside the counter in the kitchen. I grabbed his hand and picked him up. "What the hell, Reginald?"

"I forgot how to stand apparntly," was all he said.

"Clearly!" I cupped his face in my hands and examinied him. "Are you ok?"

"I'm fine," he smiled. "I'm a ghost. What am I going to do? Die? I barely felt a thing."

I flicked his ear.

"Ow!"

"Are you lying?"

"You flicked me!"

"You felt it."

"I can't pass through you! I can pass through objects!"

"I'm sorry, baby."

I kissed his nose and he smiled at me. "I like it when you do that." I ran my fingers through his hair and he leaned his head on my hand.

And then out of the blue he just gave me a hug. One he's never done before. He held me as tight as possible and burried his head into my shoulder. After only a few seconds I felt my shirt start to get wet with his tears. I rocked him back and fourth, trying to calm him down, but based on his breathing and the wetness of my shirt, he wasn't calming down, but instead getting worse.

"Baby," I whispered to him. "Don't cry. It's going to be okay. I don't know what's wrong but I promise it'll be better. Okay?"

"Luke, we're dead," he cried. "No one gets to hear our music anymore. I don't get to marry you. We don't get kids. We broke everyone. Even the Mercer's were broken over not only Alex's death, but ours too. And my brother. I broke him. And your parents. And Mrs. Harvey and April. Luke we broke our best friends. We broke everything and we can't fix it, Luke. We can't fix it."

"Shh, it's okay, Reggie. Everything's going to be okay. I promise. You're right, we can't fix all of them, but they will all be okay. They'll all be ok. Just like we're going to be okay. It's ok, my love, shh."

I rubbed circles on his back as he continued to cry. Just then, T.K came walking down the stairs. Reggie pushed off of me and wiped the tears from his eyes and sniffled. I reminded him that T.K couldn't see him, but he said it was just awkward and that he wanted to go lay in bed and be alone for awhile. I gave him a kiss before he went upstairs, and told him to teleport to me if he needed anything.

Shortly after Reggie went upstairs, Carlos came down and he and his boyfriend started making breakfast. I appeared on the counter just to scare them because it was fun. I succeeded. Got scolded for it, but succeeded. We had a short conversatin before they finished their breakfasts and went to work.

I went upstairs to check on Reggie, and found him fast asleep. I gave him a kiss on the cheek and then decided to go for a walk since he wanted to be alone.

I met up with Alex and talked to him about everything we've missed since Willie's house yesterday. He said that after he took care of his parents, he went back to Willie's, but Willie was already asleep. So he slept with him, and in the morning he and Willie had a long talk about their relationship. They decided that Alex can't get mad or upset if Willie decideds he wants to be with someone else in his lifetime. Alex was the one to say this, but Willie insisted they'd make their alive/dead relationship work somehow. But until they figure out how exactly a ghost is going to date a living a person, Alex will just stay at Willie's.

I told him about the cops suspicions and everything we learned from Athena and Carlos. And how we're staying with Carlos and his boyfriend. I also told him about Reggie falling through the floor, and then having a mental breakdown. Which made Alex concerned for his mental health. We agreed that if I think something is genuinely wrong, than I should tell Alex immediately and the three of us will figure it out together. Like we always do.

After that, Alex wanted to go with Willie to God knows where. So I said goodbye to him and kept walking. I ended up passing Julie Molina's house and for some reason, I wanted to ask her if she was involved at all. Like, if getting with me was all part of some big plan. When we all died, we all knew exactly what happened. It was like a little letter, but a memory. We could all see Bobby poison the strawberry sause. Then we saw him put it on the cheesecake. So we knew how we died. We just didn't know the plan.

I really wanted to ask her what she knew, so I walked into her house and went upstairs.
