Shawn

--------------------
"Salem! What's going on?"
I yelled, I was in the white room again.
I had just passed out on the stage of Madison Square Garden.
"Shawn?"
She questioned, I sighed a little relieved.
I froze seconds later, my eyes had landed on a black dot off in the distance.
"Do you see that?"
I asked, there was a pause before she spoke.
"Ya."
She answered shortly, she actually sounded scared, I had to admit I was too.
"I think we should go to it."
I said out of nowhere, she didn't speak for a few seconds.
"Shawn, I don't know about that."
She whispered, shakily I started slowly for it.
"Maybe if we both go to it... We can find each other."
I stuttered nervously out as the dot grew closer and closer.
"Just start walking, don't worry I'm here."
I told her softly, seconds later I heard her light footsteps.
"It's getting closer."
She told me, I sighed knowing we could possibly be seeing each other within the next few minutes.
"Are you seeing what I'm seeing?"
I asked, there was a pause.
I studied the black dot, it was only a foot away from me, but it was just a dot.
I slowly brought my hand up to it, my finger literally inches away.
"Salem? Do you trust me?"
I questioned, without hesitation she answered.
"Yes."
She practically whispered.
"Touch the dot."
I told her, after a few seconds I pressed my finger onto the black circle, but what happened next was unimaginable.
I spun in circles as if I had just been sucked into a black hole.
Everything was a blur as I whirled through the unknown. My heart raced as I continued to fall through the never ending pit, but then everything went silent.
I was scared to open my eyes, especially knowing for a fact that something was on top of me.
I slowly peered through one of my eyes to see a girls face above me, her own eyes closed as well.
"Salem?"
I questioned, she jolted at my sudden speaking, moments later she opened her eyes.
"Shawn?"
She asked, I nodded not really understanding what was happening.
"I found you."
She whispered, I smiled and helped her get off of me.
After we were both standing on our feet, my eyes wondered around our new surroundings.
We were no longer in a white room, we were in the middle of an empty street, and buildings surrounded us.
"What is this?"
She asked after a moment, I glanced over at her. She was so beautifully perfect from head to toe, and in a way I felt like I had known her forever.
"I have no idea, but we need to find out."
I told her quietly, she nodded in agreement.
