My jaw drops as I see the whole beach under my feet.

We are literally on the edge of a cliff.

We are so high from the ground, I can actually see every single thing from here. I can even see the seaside where we always hang out.

"Oh my-.. This is amazing!" 

I say, feeling extremely excited.

Grayson stands next to me, taking a deep breathe. I watch the stars get brighter under his skin.

Sun is about to go down, but it is still not sunset.

It should have been gone by now, but it is still there. 

Considering Grayson can change the weather, I wonder if he is the one pausing the sky.

"Do you like it?" he asks me, crossing his arms like he is proud. 

I nod, looking back at him.

"This is just beautiful."

I absolutely can see the fireworks exploding in his eyes, the darker it gets, the more Grayson's skin brightens. 

Grayson told me we were in Abu Dhabi, but we are in the most beautiful place we could ever been.

He smiles with his teeth, sighing deeply.

I can see the endless ocean, the beach and the sky, surrounded by beautiful forest. 

"It must be a dream world,"

He says, like he just read my mind again.

"How are we gonna eat dinner like you want?"

He shrugs, sitting on the edge of the cliff, hanging his feet down.

I slightly feel panicked. We are so high from the ground, he can easily fall down by a single mistake.

"Be careful.." 

Oh wait, he is already dead..

"It is okay, come, sit next to me. Let's watch the sunset."

I glance at him, hesitating to go near him.

He told me there is still time for the sunset, and that he wanted have a dinner. 

I feel confused as always, but being with him, in such magical place, brings me back to life every single time.

I slowly sit next to him, hanging my feet down just like him.

It is like I am flying.

I am flying!

I feel him watching me as we both stay quiet for a while. 

Ocean waves, fireflies, nice breeze of the summer.. 

Everything is perfect. 

I dare myself to look at him, making our eyes meet.

Wind blows my hair harshly while blowing him tactfully.

I smile at the way Mother Nature touching him gently again.

"Do you feel alive?" I ask him, holding back my longing and everything I have been hiding for a really long time. 

This time I don't ask it for a clue, I ask it because I want to know.

"Yes"

I nod, not breaking the eye contact.

I don't know what to do besides staring at him in longing. 

I just can't stop missing him and feeling all guilty inside, since I was really mean to him and never accepted him when he was alive.
