My eyes flutter open. I sat up looking around to see that I'm at a familiar place. Long grass, clear sky. Puffy clouds, all sun. I looked down at my clothes to see I was wearing all white.
I cursed under my breath.
How did I let myself die again?.
I lost everyone, everything. I cave just come back into my friends or family life. They all think I'm dead and now I have to start all over again.
I have to move out of the country. Make new friends. Somehow get some money so I could survive.
A tear fell from my eye.
This wasn't new to me. This is probably my fifth time dying.
I died from different reasons. Mostly because I am a clumsy girl that has bad luck.
The last thing I remember doing is jumping off of a cliff with my brother. I guess I drowned or I hit my head but I know it was painful.
I sniff standing up and walking down the familiar trail. Down the trail was a small beach. The water was extremely clear and clean surprisingly.
I walked up the water and stopped looking down at my bare feet. The cold water touched my foot making me Hiss a little, but I didn't move. I fell to my knees.
"Are you sure you want to go back Michelle?" I heard a feminine voice behind me. I turned around to see a girl with grey hair and blue eyes. Freckles all over her face she seemed to be in her early 90s.
She was always here whenever I came back. I never got her name because I was always in a rush to leave.
"Yes I'm sure"
"Where would you go?" She asks? I shrug "wherever my feet takes me"
"Good luck" she smiles "thank you"
She watches me as I stood back up walking further into the water, until the water was above my chest.
"Here goes nothing" I went further in the water closing my eyes and holding my breath as my head went beneath the water.

My eyes widen and sat up coughing up water. My hair is wet. And I was wearing the same bathing suit that I died in. "Hey are you ok?" I felt a hand on my shoulder making me flinch. I looked at the girl with brown skin and Y/c/e. "Where am I?" I asked looking around to see that I'm on a beach.
"Wait am I still in Miami!" I stood up quickly the girl furrows her eyebrows. "I'm sorry what?...we're in Jamaica" my eyes widen.
As I looked at the blue water. I frowned looking at my feet that is covered in sand. "You're not from here are you?" She asks.
"Uh yeah you can say that" I scratch the back of my neck. "Where's your parents?"
"Somewhere far far away from here" I frowned "do you want to come home with me?"
"You're just going let a complete stranger come into your house?" I chuckle she shrugs "you seem trustworthy so follow me I'll get you some clothes"
We walked along the sand getting further and further away from the beach. "What's your name?" I ask
"Y/n" she says blankly tying her curly hair into a ponytail. "Well my name is Lauren"
She looks at me and smile.
After a 10 minutes walk we made it to a house. We walked in "I stay here by myself so don't worry about introducing yourself" she chuckles kicking off her flip flops.
I followed her upstairs she went to a closet down the hall and handed me a towel and a rag. She opens a door to a room "this will be your room...my room is right across from you" I nod "thank you"
"Yeah no problem and the bathroom is right next to yours"
"I'll have your clothes on your bed I just have to find some..until then go take a shower"
I nod going into the bathroom.
I guess I didn't have to worry about making friends or moving away after all. Let's hope I can survive these life changes......
