(Authors note: thank you guys for commenting on the last chapter! I'm so sorry to keep you waiting. Frankly, I didn't think anyone would ever read this :P IT MEANS SO MUCH!!!! Well, anyway.. Please enjoy, "temporarily deceased" <3)

"But I am dead! Am I in the hospital?"

"I don't know, sweetheart." I was walking along and I saw you. What do you remember?" He asks me.

After that, I told everything. Well, pretty much everything. As far as he knows, I was going to chick-fil-a with Kelsey.

I did not tell him about the hot poop eye boy. We should save that for another time..

I stood up and looked down at myself. My once tight, neat braids had flyaway peices everywhere. My dress was ripped and the lace was split. Gladly, mom won't see. Scratches and bruises trailed down my arms and legs but I couldn't feel anything sore or in pain.

My dad had a bandage around his head, with red staining the left side. I really did feel like tearing up right then on the spot in front of my dad, but I didn't. Not because I'm a tough teenager. Because I'm not, I just couldn't cry. Not with anything in me.

"i guess we can't cry in the afterlife. " the voice in my head called.

"You don't even know if this is the afterlife."

"Well, maybe you got cremated five minutes ago." The voice said.

"I DID NOT DIE." I shouted.

My dad looked alarmed and slightly frightened, but at the moment I didn't care what he thought. That's a lie. Of course i did.

"I need to go for a walk."

He was hesitant before he answered. "Alright. Please don't be long."

"Okay."

I spun around and picked up my bag. Towers of books surrounded me and I knew, every book in the world must be here.

Well it's settled then. I did die and I did go to heaven.

I could get used to this. I really could.

{~}

But then it just got a little better. A boy stood there on a love seat, endured by the book he was reading. Stacks and stacks of novels stood tall around him and he had his finger on the page sliding gracefully, but slowly.

I walk towards him with silent steps. He doesn't seem to notice me when I sit cross ledge on the hard wood floor.

"Say something." The voice called.

"No." I said, out loud.

Kill me now. Oh wait, never mind, Kelsey already took care of that.

His finger takes an ice stop and he looks up at me. He has dusty blonde hair and cute, jet black nerd glasses. He looks surprised. Freckles were splattered all over his face and he has a scruffy grey sweater. His book closed and slipped to the floor right by my knee. He's looking at me like I'm a monster.

Well sorry, I couldn't brush my hair while I was in a drowning Car. I couldn't of been that bad.

"Hi." I managed to slip out. "I'm Kiese."

He didn't say a word.

GREAT.

Authors note: thanks for reading guys. Hope you enjoy :) and any ideas on what to name him?? I'll be having a new chapter in soon and a name for the comments will soon belong to this lil' nerd man.:P
