Chapter Twenty-Six of 'The Boy In The Basement':

"How did you like the book?" Harry had asked me. Tears were running down my face, and were not able to be stopped. All those thoughts were running through my head. How could John Green just kill of Augustus like that? Yes, I know it's because of the cancer, and it's reality, but, it's just heartbreaking.

And poor Hazel Grace. They were so cute together. I would have shipped them. Hell, I do ship them! Gus should just come back to like in the form of a ghost, just like Harry. Wait a minute. What if Harry and I were like Hazel Grace and Augustus Waters? But minus the living part, and cancer part.

"It's so good, but it's so, so sad." I whispered. Birds began chirping as they sat on the branches of the tree. The cool summer breeze gently ran over me, making my hair wave slightly. The smell of fresh cut grass invaded my nostrils. Dad was mowing. Since he had today off, and had nothing better to do.

I heard Harry chuckle as he closed The Fault In Our Stars. They need to change the book name to "The Pain In Our Hearts".

"Why are you laughing at me?" I looked at him and wiped my face. Harry's head was turned to the side as he put the book on the book case. I could see his smile clear as day, and it made my heart flutter. Once Harry turned his head, I automatically locked eyes with his green ones.

I still can't get over how beautiful he is when he isn't all transparent and gray. He's like an angel. And no matter how many times he denies it, he will always be a angel in my eyes. I also can't get over how he is slowly coming back to life.

"You are so cute." Harry grinned. I rolled my eyes and shook my head. "Yeah, no." I said. Harry frowned, and looked at me. "You know, if you keep rolling your eyes they are going to end up falling out." he said.

"Oh my gosh! Harry, that is disgusting!" I slapped his arm playfully while smiling. Harry laughed and threw his head back. I smiled as I observed him. He finally got out of that outfit I first saw him in. He was wearing a sleeveless white shirt, and basketball shorts. He was also wearing a gray beanie. I don't know how, because it's hot out.

Once Harry stopped laughing, he put on a serious face. My heart skipped a beat, and I gulped. Harry store at me for awhile before he crawled over to me. The beatings in my chest could be heard a mile away. Harry, why do you do this to me?

Harry smiled, pulling me on his lap so that I was straddling him. I began to blush horribly, and I tried to hide it by lowering my head. But, Harry's long fingers wrapped under my chin and made me lift my head up so that I was looking into his green orbs.

"Don't do that, you are cute when you blush." he whispered. A smile found it's way to my lips, and I had no intentions to stop it. I leaned in and kissed Harry's nose. He laughed and scrunched his nose up.

"You are adorable when you do that." I pointed out with a laugh. Harry wrapped his arms around my waist and smiled up at me. "No, you are. Even if you don't do what I just did, you are adorable."

I smiled and brought one of my hands up to his chest. My hand was pressed against his heart. I was waiting for that familiar heart beat. Three seconds later, there was a pounding feeling felt. I smiled. Five seconds later, it happened again. His heart beats every five seconds.

"You enjoy that." I don't know if he was asking, or saying. Instead of asking which, I just smiled and nodded. I moved my hand down and continued to watch him. Then a question popped into my head, and I already know it won't leave until I get a answer. "Harry?"

"Yes, Alice?" I licked my lips and looked at him, my smile slowly fading away. "When you turn human again, if you do, will you still be able to like, get in to peoples heads?"

I know it's a stupid question, but I couldn't help but ask him. I was very curious to know. Harry didn't look at me, but he looked past me, out the tree house window. I sighed and hung my head low. I know it was stupid, and now he won't answer.

"We aren't sure." he said. It surprised me, what he said. My head lifted up and I looked at him with a confused face. "Who is 'we'?" I questioned. Harry turned his head slightly so he was looking at me again.

"They're called Warriors. They are the ones who help people cross my the human world, and into the dead world. Either good, or bad. I talked to them about what was going on with you and me slowly turning to human,"

I watched him as he spoke slowly. His voice was music to my ears, and I don't want him to stop talking. But, I know that I need to listen to what he is saying. I need to know what these "Warriors" said to him.

"It's never happened." he said. "What do you mean?" I asked. "They've seen it happen, but the spirit or ghost has never been able to fully transform to human again. They always end up dying, and are never seen again. They are gone. Forever."

Now I don't want him to turn. Now I don't want to help him get to his human self again. He will end up going away forever.

I watched him, not being able to say anything. Harry sighed as he watched me. "I know what you are thinking, Ally," he said. I looked down at my hands, as if they became very interesting. "but they said it's only happened twice. There is still hope that I can make it through. There's a possibility that I'll be able to be with you."

I continued to look down as he spoke. "I want to do it. Because, I know you will be there for me. You give me hope. You help me with things you don't even know about. You are my savior. And, if I know that you are here, helping me fight, I will be able to accomplish turning over to the human side."

That's when I looked up, and kissed him with force, making us fall down.
