------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My name is Zack, I was 19 when I died.
This is how it happened. I was at a party and I walked in on my boyfriend sleeping with a different guy so I ran out and kept running. Eventually I started getting tired, so I sat on the swing and started thinking about how much he hurt me. I loved him so much it made me crying.
It was a good thing it was around 12 pm or one of my friends would have seen me crying. That's what I was thinking at the time anyways. I couldn't stop crying it hurt too much, but then I heard laughing from behind a tree. I shot up off the swing then five big guys walking out from behind the tree.
“Look at the cry baby,” one of them laughed.
Which made the rest laugh.
I wiped the tears away from my eyes and pulled myself together. “Get lost,” I said.
But they didn't. They all walked up to me and made a circle around me. I started to get scared, but I couldn't move.
“So what's wrong with the baby?” One of them asked.
"Nothing," I snapped at them.
But all they did was laugh then they started shoving me around while they kept laughing. The guys must have been drunk. I could smell it on their breath, but then I fell the ground. One of them pulled me back up to my feet. I wanted to cry, but I had to stop myself because they wanted me to cry. I could see one of the guys with a beer bottle, then I heard a smash. The guy broke the bottom off of it . I started freaking out. I tried to run, but the guys just kept pushing me back.
“Let me go,” I kept shouting at them.
But they just kept laughing. I tried to push past them again, but they pushed back. Only this time I couldn't stop, I started falling. I felt was something going into my back and then a sharp pain. I fell to my knees. I could taste blood in my mouth, then I fell flat on the ground. I couldn't breath and the guys were freaking out.
“Shit! Dude, what did you do? We were going to cut him not kill him!” One shouted.
“Shit! We still have time. Let’s just call someone!” Another one shouted.
“We can't! We'll all be put in jail for this!” Another reasoned.
“F**k it. Let’s just go,” the first one said.
Then I heard them running away. That's when the tears started running down my cheeks. I looked up at the sky to see the moon. It was bright and very beautiful then everything went black. When I woke up, I was still in the park. I got up to my feet, then I looked down. There was no blood on the ground. I put my hand on my back where the bottle went in, but there was nothing. I looked up in the sky and the sun was up. I looked around, there was police tape on the entrance to the park. I walked to it. I was about to walk out of the park, but instead I walked into something and it hurt. It was like a glass wall. I couldn't see anything, but I could feel it
“What?” I asked confused.
I ran to the other side of the park to the other entrance, but the same thing happened. So I tried climbing the wall, but I couldn't. I was trapped inside the park. I could see people walking past the park, so I started hitting the glass and shouting.
"Help me," I shouted, helplessly, over and over again.
But they kept walking. I did this for a long time, but nothing happened, so I sat under a tree and cried. When I looked up, I saw a lot of flowers lying on the ground. I didn't see them before. I slowly got up and walked to them. There was a small card lying with them. I opened the card and I looked inside. It had my name. I was so shocked.
"No!" I shouted in disbelief.
I shot up to my feet and started kicking the flowers, but it didn't do anything.
“I am not dead!” I kept shouting over and over again.
Then I stopped when I saw a policeman removing the tape. I ran to him .
“Hello,” I said.
I was standing right in front of him, but nothing. He just kept removing the tape, then he left. I tried walking out the park after him, but of course, I couldn't.
“So, it is true,” I said defeated.
Then I walked over to the swing and sat down in it.
“If I am dead, then why am I still in the park?” I asked myself.
Days passed and no one came into the park. I just sat there on the swing bored as hell until one day a boy about my age came in. I've seen him before, but I couldn't think where. I watched him as he sat on the swing next to me he had a sketch book and a pencil in his hands. He opened his sketch book, so I looked over his shoulder at his sketch book. He was looking for a blank page, I think. He was really good at drawing. He kept going through it, but then stopped and at a drawing of me, it was in a classroom I was smiling then it hit me.
“Sky” I said out loud.
Sky , was a boy in my class he always sat in the back of the classroom, he never spoke to anyone not even the teacher. I never paid much attention to him. I did think he was cute, but that was it. I didn't know anything about him. I snapped out of my thoughts, when I heard Sky crying. He was looking at the drawing of me.
Did he like me? I wondered to myself.
I stood up from the swing, which made it move, Sky quickly looked at it . He seemed a bit scared .
“Hello?” He said.
That was the first time I ever heard his voice, it was like music to my ears. I slowly walked in front of him. I put my hand on his cheek and he must have felt my hand, because he jumped a little bit, but then relaxed. He reached up and put his hand on mine, then a small smile came to his face. His smile was so beautiful it made me smile, then I moved my hand.
“Sky,” someone shouted. It was a woman.
He stood up closing his sketch book, then walked to the end of the park. I followed him to the entrance then stopped. He stepped out of the park and then stopped and looked back at the swing set, then walked away, so I went back to the swing set. Weeks passed and Sky came back every day and sat on the swing next to me, he would bring something every day his sketch book, music, books and even word searches. I loved spending time with him. I found out a lot of stuff about him that I didn't know before, when I was alive. The whole time I was with him, I couldn't stop thinking, I wish I know him when I was alive. And every time he left, I wished I could go with him .
Two weeks later me and Sky were sitting in the park listening to My Chemical Romance the CD ended, then Sky was shouted for again. We got up together and we walked to the entrance. He walked out and I put my hand out to touch his back like I always did, but this time instead of the glass stopping me it didn’t, so I slowly walked out of the park. It made me smile and I followed Sky to his house. He closed the door behind him. I put my hand out it and it went right through the door, so I slowly walked into Sky’s house. I followed him up the stairs to his room. He was changing his clothes into his night clothes and when I saw him with no top on, I quickly turned around and looked at the door. I knew he couldn't see me, but there was no way I was going to be a perv ghost. The lights went out, so I turned around to see Sky get into his bed. I walked over to him and climbed in with him. He shivered a little, so I put my arm around him which made him shiver again, but he still smiled.
“Zack?” he asked.
I kissed his cheek, he turned around and smiled. We both cuddled until we fell asleep. I stayed with Sky in his house and I went everywhere he went. I went to school, shopping, clubs, walks and even to the park. I would always touch his back or his cheek to let him know that I was there. He was always smiling when he knew I was with him. I spent a lot of time with him and I eventually fell in love with him, big time. And I couldn't stop thinking I wished I'd talked to him when I was alive.
I watched over Sky all his life. I watched him get boyfriends, but that would always make me sad to see him with someone else. He would always talk to me, which made me smile, but one day Sky had just broke up with his boyfriend. He went running up the stairs to his bedroom and I followed after him. When I got there he was lying on his bed crying. I sat with him and cuddled him.
Then he started talking, “Zack, I know you can see me and you’re always with me. And I am so glad you are and I want you to know that I love you. I always have and always will.” He cried.
I kissed him on the cheek.
“I love you too, Sky ,” I said, but of course he couldn't hear me.
Years went on, and I watched, Sky , He get old, but I stayed 19. I always slept beside Sky . Even when he got marred. And even though he was married, I knew he loved me more than the other guy because he would always smile when I laid down with him.
Sky lived until he was 96, then he passed away in his sleep. I was dragged back to the park. I was lying on the ground, when I got up to my feet. I heard the swing moving and turned around to see Sky swinging. He was 19 again. He stopped the swing and jumped off and ran over to me. I gave him a huge hug.
“I knew it was you, Zack.” He smiled.
“I am so sorry it took me so long to notice you, Sky,” I said about to cry.
We pulled away.
“It's okay, Zack.” He smiled again.
“I love you, Sky,” I said.
“I love you too, Zack,” he replied.
I finally kissed him on the lips. I could feel the love in the kiss when we pulled away.
“I wish I had gotten to be with you when we were alive,” I said.
“We can be with each other now.” He smiled and I smiled too.
“Will you be mine forever?” I asked him.
“Yes.” He smiled.
We kissed again and then ran over to the swings, where we played. And we did we spend forever together. We didn't need to be alive to be together or even be in love .
