Wake Up (TribeTwelve) (KevinXMilo)

     Blackness surrounded, it was the only thing he could see. He could hear voices, the voice that sounded like his own but all messed up, and another voice that sounded like his friends cousin, but the voice was lower and slower. All he could feel was the cold touch of something wrapped around him, he struggled and fought to get free but he couldn't get anywhere, but something happened, a bright white light filled the room and he felt something rush over him. "Wake up."

     Kevin woke up in his room, he sat up in a panic and looked around, he was covered in cold sweat, he was breathing heavily and once he was able to calm himself down he stood up from his bed. He looked around but couldn't really see anything, he walked over to the light switch and turned it on, the light flickered on and he covered his eyes. When he uncovered his eyes he saw what a mess his room was, he looked around and then saw a dead body, he covered his mouth and he felt his heart skip. Kevin dropped to his knees looked over to the side and saw his Ouija with melted candles and a knife, his breath stopped, "No," he whispered to himself, he crawled over to the dead body and rolled it over, he gasped as it laid on its back. He backed up and tears started to roll down his face, "No, it can't be," his past lover laid dead in front of him, covered in stab wounds and cuts, he held his head and started to shake, he stood up and walked over to the Ouija board, he sat down and looked at the knife, he reached over to grab it but stopped, remembering everything that happened. Kevin pulled away and covered his face, he broke down crying, "This has to be a nightmare! I can't be back here! I just can't!" he grabbed his glasses and removed them so he could cover his face completely. After a while he was able to calm himself down, he grabbed his glasses and put them on and took a deep breath, he stood up and looked around, he walked over to his door and opened it, he peeked his head out and looked around, the hall way was dim and quite, he stepped out of his room and walked down the hall way, everything seemed untouched from that night, as if time had been frozen. As Kevin looked down the stairs he sighed, walking down them he passed a picture frame, he looked at it and grabbed it, it was of his best friend Milo and his friend Noah, he smiled slightly and grabbed it off the wall, once he reached the bottom of the stairs he walked passed a big mirror, as he walked passed it he saw something walking like him on the other side of the mirror, he stopped for a second and looked at the mirror. He saw something looking back at him, a shadow with bright white eyes the shape of glasses and a huge white grin, his eyes widened and he backed up and dropped the picture frame, an eye on the shadows forehead then opened and he started to laugh, he covered his ears as the laugh started to ring through the house and he dropped to his knees, "MAKE IT STOP!" he shouted, he closed his eyes and the laughing got louder then it stopped with a loud bang, Kevin looked up and stood up, he looked back into the mirror and the shadow was gone, he squinted confused then there was a loud banging noise coming from the front room, he looked around and saw a pocket knife laying on a desk under the mirror, he grabbed it and opened it, he walked into the front room and looked at the front door, "Kevin! Open up! Where are you?!" a familiar voice called out, Kevin then closed the pocket knife and put it in his pocket. He walked over to the door and opened it, there stood Milo, he looked like he was in a panic, "Milo!" Kevin said, Milo looked down at him, "Oh thank god you're okay!" he said and hugged him tightly, Kevin blushed slightly and smiled he hugged back, "What happened?" he asked, "I need to talk to you about something," Milo said. They both sat down in the dinning room, Milo started to speak in a panic voice, "So, one minute it was dark and cold there were voices and noises but I couldn't see anything, then suddenly, I'm awake in my house," Kevin frowned, "That happened to me too," he said, "Wait really?" Milo asked, Kevin nodded and sighed, "I have no idea what happened or anything but all I know is that we came back to life," he said, Milo held his head and rubbed his face, "I know it's a lot to take in but whatever happened, it's over now," Kevin said, "I'm just glad you're okay," Milo said, Kevin smiled slightly and sighed. After awhile of talking they deiced to go out to eat, they walked out and walked down to a cafe near Kevin's house, once they got in and got their food they sat outside and began to eat, Milo then chuckled and shook his head, Kevin looked at him taking a bite of his sandwich and tilted his head, "This reminds me of when we were teens," he said, Kevin looked down and smiled, "Yeah it does," he said, "Wanna go to the park after this?" Milo asked, "Yeah, sure," Kevin said. When they finished their food they walked to the park, when they got there they sat on the swings and chatted for a bit, they talked about their past and how they used to run around the park playing tag and hide 'n seek, they laughed and joked around a bit, then Milo sighed, "Well it's getting late, we need to go leave," he said, Kevin nodded and stood up, "Hey, mind if I stay with you?" Milo asked, Kevin looked back at him and hesitated, remembering he had a dead body in his room, "I-I don't know, I don't think that's the best idea," he said, "Why not? It could be like old times," Milo said, Kevin frowned and sighed, "I suppose it won't hurt," he said, Milo stood up, "Awesome, lets go," Kevin nodded and they both walked back to his house. When they got there Kevin looked at Milo, "Lets sleep in the front room for the night," he said, "Why?" Milo asked, "Because, my room's a mess," Kevin said, "I'm sure it's not that bad, if anything I could help you clean up," Milo said and began to walk up the stairs, Kevin shook his head and looked at the ground, seeing the picture frame, "Wait! Milo look!" he said, Milo stopped and looked back at Kevin, Kevin held up the picture frame and smiled nervously, "Remember this?" he asked, Milo walked back to him and took the picture frame, he smiled, "Oh yeah! That was when you met Noah again after a really long time," Kevin nodded and ran up the stairs, running to his door, "Hey, wait a minute!" Milo called out and ran up to him, "Why don't you want me in your room?" he asked, "Because it's a mess!" Kevin said and bit his lip slightly, "Why can't I help you clean?" Milo asked, "Because there's no point! Don't worry about it!" Kevin said, Milo squinted and put his hand next to Kevin's head and leaned over him, Kevin pressed against the door, his heart started to race slightly, Milo smirked slightly then grabbed the door handle and opened it, Kevin fell over and Milo walked in, then gasped as he saw the dead body, "What the hell?!" "I tried to stop you!" Kevin said and stood up, "What happened?" Milo looked at him, Kevin frowned and sighed, "I did it," he said, Milo frowned slightly. Kevin sat down on his bed and covered his face, "I tried to prove to her that the paranormal was real, so I pulled out my Ouija board and..." he trailed off and rubbed his face, Milo frowned and walked over to him, he sat next to him and hugged him tightly, Kevin hugged back tightly and sobbed into his shoulder, after Milo calmed Kevin down he pulled away and smiled slightly, "Lets go sleep in the front room, we'll clean this up tomorrow," he said, Kevin looked up to him and smiled slightly, "Lets go build a pillow fort and watch PG 13 movies!" Milo said mimicking a child's voice, Kevin chuckled and nodded, "Okay," he said, Milo smiled at him and Kevin hugged him again, "I missed you Milo," he said, Milo smiled and hugged back, "I missed you too."
