~Vanoss POV~

I felt something cold touch my neck so I fluttered my eyes open and was greeted by Mini. I smiled  weakly and closed my eyes again and began to drift off to sleep.

"Vanoss you have to wake up," said a muffled voice. I groaned and opened my eyes again and felt my body being lifted up. I sighed and my eyes fluttered close again.

"Vanoss Jonathon's here," said a calm male voice. I shot up and opened my eyes.

"John," I asked with a raspy voice. I scanned the room and saw a nervous Mini and a few guys hovered over me. Then reality hit me hard Johnathon is gone and was only said to wake me up. Tears welled up and fell back down on my back.

"I'm sorry Vanoss," Mini said breaking the silence.

"It's fine he's gone and I have to accept this," I stated emotionless.

"Vanoss," he hiccupped and tears fell down his face.

"Don't cry Mini," I cooed.

"Why you're suffering and you always put on a smile. How," he yelled. I shrugged and looked up at the plain metal ceiling with a couple lights swaying back and forth.

"Sir once this elevator opens walk the opposite direction we do," commanded one of the taller guys.

"But h-," Mini whined before being cut off by a gruff voice.

"There isn't much room on the ambulance."

"Okay I understand....." Mini said with a look of defeat.

"Good," said the gruff voice. Finally the doors squeaked open and they carried me out of the elevator.

"Goodbye Vanoss," Mini yelled before disappearing into a sea of people. I tried to wave but my arm wouldn't move and he wouldn't see me wave anyways. I sighed and slowly drifted into sleep no matter the pain that was shooting in my legs. First there was nothing then finally I dreamt something.

I was in a hospital and not laying on the plain white bed. I looked around bit all I saw was a white sheet hung up and around a bed.

"Help someone help me please," cried out a voice behind the sheet. I jumped up and ripped down and I fell to my knees. There in a bed with a ton of machine attached to him was Johnathon.

"No this isn't real. He's fine safe and happy," I cried out. Then the room began to spin and slowly the hospital room tore away. Grass grew up through the tile floor and huge stones rows by rows poked through the ground. I looked at the new area I was in now. All around me was headstones going on for miles and a few feet from me was a dying tree.

I saw a shadowy figure sitting under the tree. "Excuse me but can I ask why and where I am," I asked cautiously. The figure outstretched his arm and pointed to red granite headstone next to it. I approached the headstone it was desolate of letters and on the right corner a rose carving decorated it. I looked back up to ask more questions but the shadow figure had disappeared.

I looked back over at the headstone and saw words appearing.

             HERE LIES                JOHNATHAN DENIS
6769 - 6788
A loving son

I screamed and the world became bright. I shut my eyes from the blinding light and opened them to a brighter light. I blinked a few times adjusting to the bright light. I saw that I was in plain white room, flowers all colors dotted the room in hopes of making it less dull, machinery next to me beeped in a rhythmic pattern, Mini was fast asleep in a chair sleeping, and that I was in bed laying down. I tried to sit up but the pain stopped me and a yelp escaped my lips.

Mini woke and looked over at me with sleepy eyes suddenly h8d eyes opened wide and his mouth hung open.

"You know it's not nice to stare," I said with raspy voice that could make anyone cringe.

"H-how couldn't I you almost died," he stuttered.

"Well I'm here now," I rasped.

"You need to stop talking until you get some water," Mini said as he stood up and stretched. I nodded and watched him leave  leaving the room. I laid down and twiddled my thumbs and waited for Mini to come back.

Ten minutes had gone by and no Mini. I was frustrated and worried what if something happened. Creak I stopped my thoughts and had a mini celebration in my head. As heavy footsteps entered the room my heart sank. This wasn't Mini or anyone I know. I slowly started to pick up my breathing and heart rate. Rhythmic sound of the machine was replaced with a hurried beat.

"Evan calm down," said a gentle male voice. I sucked in my breathe and began to calm down.
"Good now I'm going to come in there," said the male voice. I immediately saw walk was short Lui with heavy boots and was wearing a dull military outfit. Following him was a doctor in a lab coat smiling.

"Hello Vanoss I'm Chilled your doctor," Chilled chirped.

"Water," I said with urgency.

"Oh of course hold on let me go grab a water bottle," Chilled said before skipping out the door.

"Lui why are you wearing that," I asked. He just looked down and mumbled  something.

"Lui," I whined.

"We all got drafted except for Mini. Me and Dathi are leaving tomorrow," he screamed. My mouth hung open and a million thoughts ran through my head. Why now and why us thought kept on leaving but always came running back.

"Vanoss as soon as you leave the hospital Tyler and you will be leaving too," he said. I gasped and heard the door swing open.

"Got you a water bottle," chirped Chilled. He handed it to me and backed away. I opened it and chugged the water.

"Slow down there speedy," he said. I stopped drinking and set the bottle.

"Thanks Chilled," I said.

"No problem buddy," he said with a huge smile. He walked over to the bed and picked up a clipboard.

"So I'm going to ask a few questions. Okay?" I nodded and smiled.

"How are you feeling?"

"Just sore." He nodded and jotted it down.

"Is your head or any limbs in any sort of pain?"

"Nope I'm ready to walk."

"Alright now final question are you Vanoss."

"Of course."

"Good now I'll be right back and you can go. Oh and Louis would like to have a few words," he said dully before leaving.

"It's Lui not Louis," yelled Lui. I snickered and he glared at me.

"Yeah Dathi likes a Lui not a Louis," I said before I falling into a laughing fit.

"H-he likes me."

"Well you have to find out yourself," I said with a smirk.

"But you obviously have the answer so tell me," he squeaked.

"But your stuck with for awhile right?"

"Yes."

"Then ask him."

"But what if he doesn't like me?"

"Lui."

"Hm?"

"Do it and trust me on this okay?"

"Okay," he said energetically and hugged me.

"Am I going to interrupt anything," Chilled said with a large grin.

"Oh no no," I said quickly.

"Well your all set to go just talk to a nurse called Ze before you go," he said before leaving.

"Well I'm going to go bye Vanoss," Lui said.

"Okay bye," I said saying goodbye to my friend for probably the last time.

"Best of luck on the field too," he said before walking to the door.

"You too Lui you too," I said as sadness washed over. Why did I go? I shouldn't have listened to her. I miss his beautiful face. I miss his soft addictive lips. I miss him.

"Vanoss?" I turned around and saw guy shorter than Chilled standing in the doorway. 

"Y-yes," I stuttered.

"May I ask why you're crying," asked the male. I wiped my tears and shrugged my shoulders.

"Oh I forgot to introduce myself I'm Seananners but call me Adam."
