My hands were shaking as I stepped into the dark room.
"Hello?" I whisper almost inaudibly.
Gaining more confidence I ask the blackness if anybody is there.
"No." The voice says. For once in my life I was speechless. The voice sounded small and broken and I couldn't understand why but the voice sounded like home. I didn't know how to respond and every time I would go to say something I'd bite my tongue to keep from saying it.
"I'm nobody, so how can I be here?" The voice speaks again and I swear it flowed through me into my soul and swam gently inside. Goosebumps rose on my skin as I heard her soft breathing.
"You're obviously somebody. You can talk. Unless you're a ghost," I reply with a slight chuckle. It came out as more of a strained and nervous laugh as my voice cracked on 'talk'.
"No, but I might as well be."

My name is Wyatt Leo Fall. I'm an average guy. I'm cocky, I play sports, I'm not known very well, I've kissed girls, I've fantasized about Megan Fox, but most of all
I fell in love with a girl just like every other motherfucking guy in the world.
I was normal. She was far from it.
