narrator

~~~~~dream~~~~~

"yeah,i can't believe we have a test today in calc."
a faint voice said.

Aaliyah furrowed her eyebrows,rubbing her head as she sat up.

she looked around at her surroundings,realizing that she was in

a classroom?

she stood up,realizing the the classroom was empty before walking to the door and opening it.

the hallways were full of students that were talking at lockers and coming in and out of rooms.

aaliyah sighed in relief,realizing that her dream this time wouldn't be nearly as bad as the last one.

Aaliyah looked around the hallway before seeing a familiar face,realizing who it was.

she rushed out of the room,running in the direction of the familiar figure.
"travis!"

aaliyah ran up to the teenager,leaning in to hug him before her arms closed around him.

travis smiled as he talked to his friends.
"yeah,i'll see you guys at lunch."

travis closed his locker as he backed away from it,walking in the direction of his next class.

aaliyah followed him close by,snapping her fingers in his face.
"travis? can you hear me? am i dead-"

"yes aaliyah,i can hear you."
he said exhausted.

he looked her way as he ventured through the crowd of people.
"don't worry,i'm the only one that can hear and see you."

aaliyah furrowed her eyebrows as she rushed around the students,trying to keep up with him.

"where am i or what am i?"

he stopped in the hallway looking at her.
"you're in the after life,the other side."
he told her.

she looked around trying to touch different items and peoples,allowing her hands to fall through.

"but how did i get here?"
she asked.

he looked at her,smiling mischievously.
"i put you there,we switched places."

"i was in the after life,but i traded spots with you.

now you know what it feels like."
he smirked.

"it's your fault that i died,and i'm not gonna be buried six under my for the next 500 years,so now you're gonna go through the same thing i did."
she smirked.

"have fun."
