||Seven||

Jenna, Zack, and myself have been walking for 2 days. We survived long enough without consuming food. I don't know why. I guess Tyler is protecting us through his spirit.

Tyler's death is still haunting me. Even though I avenged him, I just can't help but feel haunted by the tragedy. He was killed right in front of me. And it's something I'm probably never going to get over.

Jenna was able to recover from her injuries. I hated that Jay had his way with her in a horrific fashion. It's not right for him to be wandering around breathing. I will kill Jay. He too killed Tyler. I know it.

Zack was still in a very bad state. He wanted to kill his brother. I could see it in his eyes how much he wanted it. Losing his brother was his braking point. He was probably going to snap. I don't know when, but he will.

As we walked, Jenna stood next to me.

"Where are we going?" She asked.

"I don't know." I replied. "I guess back to the golden fields. It's the only way to get away from Jay."

"We're not cowards!" Zack shouted as he ran next to us. "We have to fight Jay. I don't care if I die trying!"

"Zack don't say that." Jenna said. "We already lost Tyler, we can't lose you. You remind me of him."

Zack's face turned back to his normal color as Jenna told him those words. He fell back down to the ground. Jenna comforted him.

"I know, I know." She said. "We'll figure this out, I promise."

I watched them huddling together. It made me think about Tyler. How I used to huddle him when he was sad. A few tears came down my cheeks.

Later at night, we spent the night underneath a few trees. When I closed me eyes, I was dreaming, I was remembering.

Tyler went over and got out his tape recorder from the tree house. He showed it to me.

"Wow." I said.

"I used to record myself singing all the time. And since it's our second month anniversary, I think it's time to show you."

Tyler have the tape recorder to Jenna. She plugged it into his keyboard. Beautiful piano music started playing. It was Tyler's voice.

Tyler looked at me.

"Wanna dance?" He asked.

I smiled.

"Yes."

Tyler and I danced as the piano played with Tyler's beautiful voice in the background. I could picture him singing to me.

I don't know
Where I am supposed to go
So I might just
Take my pride and go
Some people, they know, know everything
But I know that they don't know my heart

Cause I, oh yeah, I believe in love
And I hope I can show you what I mean
And I don't believe love's for me, oh
So won't you come around and prove me wrong

Tyler and I danced like no one ever danced before. Jenna watched us with her head leaned against the tree trunk. She probably was just listening to the beautiful song.

Tyler wrapped his arms around me. I could hear his breathing in my arms. I closed my eyes and rubbed his head.

Won't walk the world
Any different
And my path won't change until you
Make a wall and make fall
And break me down

I don't know, no, I don't know
If I wrote this song in vain
Vain, in vain, vain

Oh, yeah
And I, oh, yeah I
Believe in love
And I hope I can show you what I mean
And I don't believe love's for me
So won't you come around and prove me wrong

Tyler hugged me tighter and spun me around.

Prove me wrong, yeah

Tyler whispered the final words to the song into my ear.

You don't know me
And I don't know you
Tell me, what should I
Do?
Oh

So won't you come around and prove me wrong

I woke up, repeating the last words over and over.

So won't you come around and prove me wrong

My face was wet with tears. The only thing I could see in hand was my wedding finger.

Jenna woke up immediately when she heard what happened.

"I remember Josh." She said. "That's my favorite song by the way."

"Mine too." I replied.

I laid back down. I wanted to go back to sleep. But I was afraid that I would dream about Tyler again. So I stayed awake. I remembered I had insomnia.

"I don't care if I don't sleep for days." I thought. "I will not suffer another nightmare again."

However, god proved me wrong. I ended up going back to sleep.
