WHEN IT ALL

FALLS DOWN

I'LL BE FINE

-

"noah schnapp! we've been expecting you!" 

noah's eyes widened, as he looked over to jack who was smiling at him. "go on!" he whispered, motioning noah to the big man with the scruffy beard. he slowly approached the man with a nervous grin. 

"ah, you're nervous. that's alright! everyone is when they first get here. let me introduce myself. my name is david harbour. i'm the original angel and you're dead." he said so nonchalantly, noah thought he heard david wrong. "i-i'm sorry what? did you say i'm dead?" noah asked with a shocked look on his face. 

"that's right." 

"h-how did i die??" he asked, his face now changing to a look of worry. david's smile faded only a little bit, "i'm afraid i can't share that information with you, noah." he said softly to the boy. his face turned to a look of anger and confusion. 

"so you're telling me i can't know how my own life ended?!" noah said, his voice raising a little bit. before he could yell at david, jack put a comforting hand on his shoulder which stopped him from yelling. noah let out an annoyed sigh, but he didn't say anything else.

"i assure you son, you don't want to know. it's for your own good." he said in a sympathetic voice. noah didn't respond, he just kept his eyes locked on the floor, his shoes seeming much more interesting at the moment. "jack will show you around, and we'll talk later, alright?" david said, noah nodding in response, walking out of the room with jack.

he only had one thought running through his mind.

how did i die?

a pang of light shone onto millie's face, waking her up. 

she tried to stretch her arms out, but she couldn't. she something hard beneath her head. she looked down, seeing a chest- finn's chest. millie felt an arm around her waist, and her legs intertwined with his. she smiled to herself, snuggling closer to him. 

a sharp inhale came from the curly haired boy, making millie turn her head so she was looking up at him. she felt his arm tighten around her waist, being pulled closer. their eyes finally met, a smile forming on finn's lips as he saw the petite girl looking up at him. "good morning mills." he said, his voice raspy from just waking up. 

"mm morning wolfhard." millie responded, smiling and kissing his cheek. there was a loud knock at the door, startling millie. an aggravated sadie barged in, going wide-eyed once she say millie and finn. "sorry! i thought you two would be up by now." sadie said as she quickly ran out. "SADIE SINK COME BACK HERE NOW!" millie yelled, hearing a chuckle from finn. 

she ripped the blankets off from herself and chased after the red head, yelling during the process. "you're so dead sink! so dead!" millie said, making gaten giggle and grace smack him for moving, almost making her spill the cereal on her lap. "that's your fault for taking my cereal." he said in a playful tone. grace stuck her tongue out at the blue eyed boy. 

after another five or six minutes of sadie and millie chasing each other, millie gave up and took a seat on the couch next to caleb who was talking to iris. "hey, weren't you two just arguing??" millie asked, out of breath. "sure, but we're not immature." iris said, giving millie a smile and a little wink, then turning back to caleb. finn finally came out of his room, going to the kitchen and grabbing a bottle of water and a bagel out of the fridge. 

he then walked over to the toaster, putting the bagel in and going to the fridge again because he had realized that he forgot to grab the cream cheese. once he finally got everything he needed, finn set the toaster to 340 degrees, and went to sit down next to millie who was watching him. "well hello, stranger." finn said as he unscrewed the cap from his water bottle and took a swig. '

millie smiled, leaning her head on his chest. "guys, i'm bored of this movie. what do should we do today??" grace complained, walking over to the sink and pouring the leftover milk out from gaten's cereal bowl, rinsing it, and then putting it into the dish washer. iris sighed, "we could always go and mess around in the ally ways." she said, getting up and going to her room to get cans of spray paints. 

"that's a great idea!" sadie said with a smile, the others agreeing. 

"let's do it."

noah was having a hard time. 

he was confused and sad. he was also frustrated and angry at the same time. the poor boy wanted to know how his life was taken from him, and why it was him that had suddenly died. had he done something wrong? did he upset someone? a million thoughts flew through the small boy's head as he sat on the edge of the bed. "knock knock." an unfamiliar voice said, making noah shoot his head up to the door. a tall girl wearing a loose white t-shirt, black shorts, and an anklet with an angel on it was standing in the doorway. "hi. i'm malina." the tall girl with bangs and brown eyes said to noah, walking over and taking a seat next to him. 

"h-hi. i'm noah." he said nervously. malina gave him a big smile, which made noah feel warm and fuzzy inside. "d-do you know how i died?" he asked, making malina's face turn from happy to confused. "of course not! the only angel who knows how we've died is david harbour. he's the original angel, the one who built this wonderful place. we're not allowed to know how we died. it's very dangerous." she explained, noah nodding his head showing he understood. "can you show me around?" he asked. 

malina's face immediately lit up, "yes! that's actually what i came here to do. come on, follow me." she said, standing up and happily skipping out the door. noah followed, genuinely wanting to know his way around his new home. he didn't let it show, but he was very excited. 

he jogged to catch up to malina, she laughed watching him run, he looked silly. 

"you're funny, noah. i think we'll be good friends!" malina said with a look of optimism in her eyes.

-

"noah! stop oh my gosh!!!" malina said, throwing her head back in laughter. 

it had been a few hours since malina and noah had met, and they'd clicked right away. malina had showed noah around and introduced him to a few of her own friends. noah was very excited to finally meet some new friends. they all seemed to enjoy his sense of humor, which made noah feel better. 

he was dancing for his new friends, making them hysterically laugh and fall on the floor. "dude, you're cracking me up!" adrien, one of his new friends said as he sat back on the couch, next to loren. "thanks, i try." he said, starting a whole new dance. 

"guys! i'm gonna crash, yell if you need anything." malina said before walking to her room and closing the door. "night mali." loren called, looking back to noah who had taken a seat. "no! keep dancing." she said with a small chuckle. "i will tomorrow. i'm kind of tired too. i'll see you guys in the morning." noah said walking off to his bedroom as well. "night kiddo." adrien called. 

noah closed the door behind him, finally feeling happy with how his after life was turning out. he couldn't wait to wake up in the morning and explore heaven even more. 

he was genuinely happy and nothing could change that.

or could it?
