I've been under water for so long how am I alive? I see Devin, wait that's not him, well yes but it's his body. Now we can bury it. But who's next to him.

I move the black hair to see the face, only it's my face. Am I dead. All I remember is pain then blackness. I hold my arm to my face, it was transparent. Yup, I'm dead. Can I go up or am I trapped. Devin isn't so I must not be. Where is Devin?

It took awhile but I finnaly get to the surface. Much to my relief I walk ashore.

"Devin."

"Yes sweetie." I turn around to see him.

I run to him, this time I didn't go through. I could finnaly be with him.

Tears soak my shoulder, "this is all my fault, I should've never let you come here."

"It's not your fault, now we can be together."

"What about Matt? He's going to be devastated."

I guess I didn't think of that. "I'll still be with him, just not alive."

"What if he doesn't respond well, what if everyone doesn't respond well?"

"Whatever happens happens, things will work out. Now come here."

We kiss for the first time in over a year, it felt so good to have him in my arms again.

"Now to go back and tell everyone."

Matt was still sleeping next to Mike when we got back. I kiss his cheek only to have my face go in. That's wierd. He whines and cuddles closer to Mike. Oh yeah I'm fucking freezing now.

Soon he woke up, he stares at me, confused.

"R-Ricky are y-you a ghost?"

I nod. He bursts out sobbing, I try to wrap my arms around him but they only go through making him cold.

"Matt it's ok I'm not going anywhere."

"No it's not, it's not the same." He sniffles, "I love you."

"I love you to. It'll be ok, I promise."

"Holy shit." Chris starred in shock.

Angelo starts crying.

"Guys it's gonna be ok, except now I'm dead." Devin pulls me to him. I was upset to.

"It'll be ok, just need time to adjust." Mike was trying to be positive.

"You're right." I let out a sigh of relief when Matt said that.

He goes to grab my hand but pulls back because of the cold.

"Can you come with me?" He whispers.

I follow him to the guest room, he wrapped a bunch of blankets around himself. I get the message and lay next to him.

"It'll be ok." He says before drifting off.
