"CHAPTER EIGHT"

Z'S POV:

Where am I? What's this place? It is so different. I think there's something wrong here. I used to see zombies, dead people everywhere, abandoned places, garbages that are scattered totally and uncapable on living but this? It's opposite. It is so calm, so soothing, relaxing. I can hear birds chirping, it seems like I'm in paradise with trees stand tall, flowers blooming and wait, is that Niall? Whoa, strange. So I quickly lead my way to him. Another strange feeling, I'm walking upright, I mean my posture now is straighter! What's happening?

"If you guys could pick any job in the world, pretend that everything was totally different, what would you want to do? Niall said. He is not alone. Louis and Harry are in his side.

"Nursing!" Louis replied.

"Yeah?"

"Yeah, Healing people and saving lives and.... I don't know, finding cures?.." Louis

"I like that! I think someday, someone's gonna figure this whole thing and exhume the whole world.." Niall said as he took a bite on his apple..

"Exhume? and.. and what is that mean?? Louis asked quite confuse.

"Uhm, exhume means to, like, revive--"

"It means to dig up, as in digging up a corpse.." Harry cut off Niall.

"Whatever.." Niall

"What the hell are you doing here?" This time it was Harry facing and questioning me. Yeah, what I am doing here by the way?

"Whoa, are you actually dreaming right now?" Harry asked confuse.

"I'm not sure.." Even my voice right now, it's not stuttering.

"You can't dream corpse. Dreaming is for humans." Okay, that hurts.

"Chill out, Haz. He can dream if he wants to.." This time it's Niall. Yeah, so maybe this is really a dream.

"What about you Z? What do you want to be?" Niall said as he stand up and walk towards me.

"I don't know, I don't even know what I am.." I replied truthfully.

"Well, you can be whatever you want. Isn't that what they say?" Maybe? I dont know, who told that? Okay..

"We can, right? You and Me?" I don't know where do I get this confidence right now, telling that infront of him with his bestfriend I guess and his boyfriend? I mean ex-boyfriend..

"Mmm-mmm.." as Niall nods. Does that mean yes?

"It's not gonna happen loverboy. Not after you told her you ate his ex." I tensed up as I look at Niall..

"Hmm. Shrug." Niall said as that perfect smile appears again.

I opened my eyes. And I immediately look at the bed. It was empty. Looks like no one had sleep there. Where is Niall? I searched the whole house, and I found nothing, even the parked car was invisible in my sight where we left that night. I made the biggest mistake ever yet the most right thing to do..

-flashback-

"It was me." I spoke.

"What was you?" Niall spatted.

I placed Harry's wrist watch on the side of the table so he can easily see it. He then took the watch, and I see, more tears of him began to flow on his cheeks.
