Kenny's POV

I wake up the next day in my bed and look over at the clock. 9:56 a.m.
I get up with my cloths already on and jump out of bed. I feel... Different somehow...

I shrug it off and go outside, starting my walk to Kyle's house. He usually wakes up around 10:00.

I can't really explain it but my soul feels... Lighter... I feel like a new person. Like a REALLY new person. Something about today is just getting to my head. I guess.

I arrive at Kyle's house and ring the doorbell. I hear big footsteps and the door opens. "Hello Kelen", his dad greets me.
"Kenny", I correct him. He never gets my name right.
"Oh right, silly me. I think Kyle's upstairs", he points up. I walk inside and head to his room.

I open his bedroom door and see him on his computer playing Happy Wheels or some shit. "Hey babe", I greet him with a kiss of the cheek. He quickly turns his head and looks at me.

"Oh hey Ken", he greets back. He looks nervous to see me. "How ya feeling?", he asks. I look at him and he looks really stressed.

"I think I should be asking you that question", I respond laughing a tad. I look over and see a broken mirror. "What happened to your mirror?", I ask, walking over to it.

"I got mad, but I'm fine now", he smiles. I sigh and sit down on the bed. "I'm bored", I complain laying down. He giggles and takes a seat next to me. He gives me a hug and a jump a bit, not expecting that. I hear sobs and freak out a bit. "Can you please tell me what's wrong Ky?", I ask as he leans up and kisses my lips.
I push him off of me, something I don't usually do, and look at his teary eyes. I wipe the tears with my thumb and hand him the tissues on the desk.

"I love you so much", he cries out. Shit, this is kinda wierd. I put my arm around him and he lays his head on my shoulder. "Let's go walk around town", he suggests, calming down. I agree and we grab our stuff and leave the house.

"So what happened while I was in hell?", I ask as we start walking down the street.

"Well, you don't have to go to hell anymore", he mumbles.

"What do you mean?", I ask, lost at what's going on with him. "I'm sure as hell not going to heaven", I sigh.

"You're not gonna die anymore Kenny. It's okay", he pats my shoulder.

"Ky, I don't wanna talk about this right now. I hate when you say dumb shit to make me happy", I tell him. He sighs and I notice him walking funny. "You shouldn't have kicked your mirror retard", I spat at him. He glares at me.

We see Starks Pond and walk over to one of the benches. I put my arm around his waist and we look at the water. I hear a loud gasp come from Kyle's mouth and he falls off the bench and on to the grassy ground. I look over and see a man with a gun, running away. I look at Kyle and see a bullet shot into his head. "He k-killed Kyle... That bastard..", I say as tears escape my eyes.

"Kenny.. it hurts..", he coughs out.
"My you're gonna be okay!", I yell at him. "Don't close your eyes babe!", I shout at the top of my lungs.
"It's okay Ken... I accepted the deal", he says, drifting off to a long rest. I look over to the man and see him running in the ditch nearby.

I drop Kyle on the ground and run over to him. It takes a while but I ketch up to him and grab his shirt collar. "You fucking son of a bitch!", I yell, punching him and taking the gun from his hands. I point it at his head and he begs for mercy. "Sorry pal, I don't take that shit from your kind", I announce as I pull the trigger. He falls to the ground and I kick his lifeless body. "Fucking asshole", I say running back to the pond.

What deal?

Kyle POV

I open my eyes at a light and find myself in clouds above the ground. The fuck? I feel my back and notice small wings coming from behind my body. Is this heaven?

I see gates open and walk inside, greeted by groups of angels flying around the blue skies. What do you know, it is heaven. I look around and notice a certain man with black wings on his back. I walk over to him and tap his shoulders. "What?", He scoffs as he turns his head to looks at me. "What's up with your wings?", I ask. He laughs a bit.

"Your new aren't you?", He questions. I nod yes and he smirks. "I don't belong here and from what I can see, you don't either", he laughs. I look a mirror nearby and notice a red halo above my head. My eyes widen in shock. Why is it red?

"The fuck?", I say out loud.
"The only person I have ever seen with a red halo is that blonde kid with the orange coat", he says examining it.
"Kenny?", I question.
"Ya, you know him?", he asks.
I nod yes and he comes closer to my face and looks into my eyes.

"Kyle", he says flatly. How does he know my name? He laughs and walks away. This is wierd... What would Kenny do?
