Third Person's POV

"you should've left with your friend, you know," a tall girl said as she entered the mansion.

after kenzie left, johnny never left his seat by the window. and this girl was the only one who ever talked to him since he got there.

the girl had short, curly, light brown hair, hazel eyes, and always had a warm smile on her face. she was never seen without her leather jacket and combat boots, even after she died and came up those stairs. rumors said that she had been up there for almost 3 years, and that she was happy now than she was when she was alive on Earth.

johnny turned to the girl, and shook his head.

"no, i made the right choice. i mean, what's the point of staying when there's nothing to stay for?" he said sadly.

the girl didn't say anything. she just took a seat next to johnny by the window.

"hannah? can i ask you a question?" johnny asked softly to the girl next to him. she just smiled and nodded.

"why didn't you leave when you had the chance?" he asked the girl.

"i was young, then. and no one was really in this mansion to speak some sense into me, so i went with what i thought was right," she replied.

"do you ever regret your choice?"

"sometimes, mostly when I'm thinking about my friends and family. but, I'm more happy here."

johnny just nodded in response, not knowing what else to say.

"listen, kid. give life a second chance. don't do what i did, please. you're young and for the little time that I've known you, i know that you have much potential. don't throw your future away because of the obstacles life throws at you," hannah said, standing up from her seat.

"where are you going?" the boy asked.

"places," the girl smiled, making johnny roll his eyes and return the smile.

"wake up, please. for me, and most importantly, for you," hannah hugged the boy, a tear slipping from her eye. johnny nodded, feeling sad about leaving his first real friend.

"I'm gonna miss you so much," he said, hugging her back.

"you'll see me soon, i promise. now go," she laughed, pushing him towards the staircase.

with another quick hug and a small wave, the boy slowly descended from the stairs. soon enough, he was engulfed with darkness, and was shoved into that dark void that he was all too familiar with.

"johnny..please wake up. i-i'm sorry. i shouldn't have treated you poorly. you didn't deserve it, at all," lauren cried like she had been for the past month and a half.

she was left alone in the hospital room with johnny, just staring at his lifeless body.

she was sobbing lowly while she held her brother's hand.

then, all of a sudden, she felt her hand being squeezed, and the heart monitor started beeping again. this time, with a rhythm.

the boy's eyes fluttered open and he sat up, as if he felt no pain whatsoever. he looked around before he was met with the eyes of his sister.

"johnny.. you're alive..".
