These were the only comments I saw when I posted the Anti and Dark chapter XD (I screenshoted this a few day's ago)

Might show my face next chapter! :)

Seán's pov:
I observed from a far. There were so many of them. I had forgotten what it was like to be one too. It's been that long...

"Hey". A kiss on my cheek was planted.

"Oh hey". I replyed but kept my focus.

"Something up"?

"Just thinking". I sighed.

"What's wrong? You can tell me". Mark gave an encouraging smile.

"I wanna be real again. I know I can't reverse time but having your heart pumping, blood flowing through you, and the feel of warm skin was wonderful. I felt like I had this sort of purpose in life. I had goals and dreams but now...".

"I get the same way sometimes too Jack. I get it. It's different but, everyone dies at one point. ALL of these people souls will soon leave their mortal state and decide if they want to cross the bridge or not. We choose not".

"I couldn't. I wasn't ready"!

"I know me neither. I had to stay with you. If i'm with you, i'm alright".

"Yeah. I am too".

"Jack"?Mark placed his hand on my shoulder. "How about we take a little stroll"?

"Sure".

The local park was empty and closed for the night. We went through the gates and begun talking.

Mark's pov:
"What's wrong"?

Jack stared at tiny golden flower that sat alone by the stump of a chopped down tree.

"I remember when I lived with me siblings. We'd explore the wilderness. Nature was something I could touch and discover".

The next minute he was tearing up.

"But now, I can't even touch a single flower". His fingers reached out but went through.

He cried but wiped his tears with his sleeves. "Sean...". I rubbed his back. He started sobbing. I pulled him into my arm's not letting go.

We said nothing. Maybe that's what's best for right now.

"How about a little midnight fly"?

Jack nodded. I wrapped an arm around him and levitated. He followed and we were above the tree's.

I could see he was tired. He and I didn't sleep earlier. For us daytime is nighttime. Just like vampires.

I let him lay on my chest as I floated in the air. I stared at the stars and would occasionally look back at Jack.

He really hated being like this. I did too but it hit him hard. I did miss things too. I missed family, friend's, favorite foods, restaurants, places, YouTube...

Tears were floating up and disappearing. They were coming from my eye's. I missed everything about life. But held back as much as I could.

Arm's coiled around my neck with a squeeze. "I love you. Please don't cry". Jack whispered out.

"Let's head back".

"No wait, just a little longer. If you don't mind...".

"I don't". I came back up a little.

So many light's illuminated the busy city. From here they were gorgeous. There was still people and vehicles passing through.

"We should had crossed". Jack blurted out.

"Jack. This was your decision".

"Then why didn't you cross"! Jack started getting pissed.

"Because I wanted to be with you".

He stayed slient for a moment.

"And I regret that decision. I wanted to stay down here because I couldn't leave everything behind. I would never see earth again but your soul has to be fresh from the body to cross ARGH why must I be a fuck'n idiot"?!

I made Jack look right at me.

"Seán. Your not idiotic. We're together. And that's what counts".

Jack stayed silent. He peeked up smiling a little and kissed my lips.

"I love you". Jack hugged me.

"Love you too".

Jack sat up. I sat as if on a chair with him in my lap. He had his arm's still around me. He pulled me down and flew back to ground.

"I should had given this to you earlier but here". I opened my hand and there floated a transparent flower.

"Cry knew how to make it so when I saw it your stupid face came to mind".

Jack stared in awe. His finger felt it's smooth delicate petal. His smile grew and he took it.

"I love it. Thank you".

"Anything for my goober".
