Joey's POV

"Joey! Lets get going already!"

Arabella's voice cut through the silence and pulled me by the arm, tugging me into the house which loomed infront of me. I observed the whole front of the house and smiled to myself. I ran after Arabella, into the new house, giggling and what not. 

I entered a large furnished room, probably the lounge room. It had a chimney and a homely feel to it. My friend, Zephyr was already lying across the couch and puffing dramatically into the air.

I raised my eyebrow and scoffed at the sight.

"Zephyr?" I questioned.

She grunted at me and turned around. I looked around and saw she left a box next to her, I looked in and the lightest things we brought were in there. I automatically groaned.

"Zephyr! Lets go unpack the moving truck!" i exclaimed

"I already did!" She argued back.

"You think we brought just a box filled with Kalum's knickknacks?"

"Maybe?"

I had enough, so i used the element of surprise. I jumped onto Zephyr with a grunt and soon earning a grunt back from her. Zephyr got up after another laborious 5 minutes of giggling, grunting and squeals from 'my attack'. We went back to to the truck, hand in hand and smiling.

Arabella, Zephyr, Kalum, Darcy and myself were standing proudly infront of the new house and laughed at all the crazy shit we've done the past few years together. I looked over the frontward and noticed the neighbours looking at us over the fence. They soon caught my glimpse and hid from my eyesight. I lifted my eyebrows in confusion and immediately nudged Kalum's shoulder.

"Hey Kalum?" I whispered and looked over to him.

"Yeah mate?" He replied while making eye contact.

"I think the neighbours are spying on us.."

"We shouldn't worry about that now! Were gonna celebrate the moment right now and ignore everything that could possibly break this moment!"

"What?"

"Don't worry bout' it!"

"Ok" I exclaimed.

I took my friends hands and walked towards the door with happiness and glee drawn on our faces.

I sat in my new bedroom and could not stop grinning at the thought of living in a house with my best friends. It was around 2:00 am, and I'm pretty guilty of binge watching on my laptop. I closed my laptop, put it on my dresser and laid down onto my bed quietly with a small smile draped across my face. 

I closed my eyes and snuggled into my covers with a satisfied feeling.

I jolted my eyes open and see a glowing speck of white in the mirror and immediately became concerned.

"Hello?" I whispered out

The speck faded away and my mind was racing and i was starting to think of my funeral plans. I huffed loudly and blamed the lack of sleep these past few days.

My eyes felt droopy and i soon fell under a slumber.

dream

I was in a dark room with no one in sight, or any light source anywhere. I looked up to see my mirror, with the same white glowing speck, growing. It started to form into a ghost like figure, details were engraving into what used to be the speck. The ghost figure approached me with a subtle smile and eyes sparkling like crystals. Its hand reached towards my arm, and i was, frozen
