I wallow in my bed, slamming my fist into the alarm clock. I turn my body to the side, lifting my bed cover off of my bare chest, and standing up. I slightly stretch my arms, but just barely ; no need to work out seeing as I'm never leaving my room again. I walked into my bathroom, running a hand through my hair, admiring the small cuts I made last night, seeping into my skin. I pushed my surprisingly golden hair out of my face, revealing my similarly golden eyes. I swear, they're getting brighter every day.

I threw on an old ModSun hoodie, though it was 90 degrees, and walked back into my bedroom, only to jump by the sound of my phone alarm going off. I picked up my phone, reading that it was a text from Dan. I slid a finger across my phone, unlocking it, reading the message.

Dan 😸;  hey! a few of us r going to the beach! u wanna come?

I replied back:

Jordan 🌿 ;  no thanks. i feel sick. plus we're nerds, we're suppose 2 be pale ;)

Dan 😸 ;  cmon man! we're tryin somethin different for next year! pleeeease?

Jordan 🌿 ; OKAY FINE ILL COME!

Dan 😸 ; works every time :) ill pick u up in 30 k? wear swim trunks and bring ur own towel

Jordan 🌿 ; fine. goodbye.

Dan 😸 ;  😄✌🏼️

I threw my phone on my bed, muttering profanities under my breath about how he was able to persuade me to come. I sighed, and since there was no turning back, I opened my closet, rummaging for my old swim trunks. After a long search, I eventually found them, and kicked off my sweats, bringing the blue floral patterned trunks up to my waist.

I bickered for a moment, but decided to leave my hoodie on ; I didn't need anyone seeing my cuts.. Especially Dan, as I promised him I'd stop. But it's not like he knows what it's like for someone to leave his life so suddenly. Someone who impacted his life so much. Someone who might've only been here for a week, but then has to just GO TO HIS DIMENSION! But he just- he.. Will helped me, so much.

I was brought out of my thoughts when a doorbell rung. I shook my head, quickly grabbing a beach towel and getting the memories out of my head. I ran downstairs, opening the door, revealing Dan and Liam. However, Liam was wearing a swimming tube around his neck.
Alley:oh god Liam lolzor

"C'mon, Jordan! The beach his waiting!" he screeched before turning around, walking back to what seemed like a van, fitting multiple people inside.

"Well?" Dan asked, reaching his hand out to me, "you coming or what?"

I smiled small. "Yeah, sure." I took his hand and we walked to the van, and I saw Dylan behind the wheel, Zack, and Liam's girlfriend, Corrine.

"Where's Graser?" I asked, sitting down. Graser was the other Zach, but calling him "Graser", his last name, was easier.

"His cat got sick or something," Zack explained, and I nodded. I heard the van start up, and we drove off to the beach.

Though I couldn't help but think I forgot something..

I screamed loudly as I kept falling, into what looked like a black, endless drop. Crazy thoughts ran through my head: I'm never going to see sunlight again! I can never pull a prank with Isaac again! I could never- see.. Jordan, again... I cried silently at that last thought, small teardrops trickling down my face. And.. Who in the actual heck is the Golden Heart? These thoughts ended when I looked down, seeing a ray of light shine from - what I assumed - the bottom of this endless drop.

My eyes widened as I reached the bottom, falling into the ray of light. This is how I die... I shut my eyes tightly, and screeched a little louder as I fell to the ground, hitting it with a large Thump!. I faintly opened my eyes, squinting as I could see sunlight, feeling it burn into my skin. I jumped at the feeling, and turned around, falling off.. a bed? I mentally scratched my head, wondering why I landed on a bed. That's when I realized where I was..

I was in Jordan's room?

The Shadow King, for some odd reason, sent me to the Light Dimension. That idiot, probably thought I'd burn the second I got here.. I stood up, leaning back against the wall, with my hands still cuffed. My attention wasn't focused on my hands, though ; what surprised me was that Jordan's room was a mess. Clothes were thrown everywhere, and I even noticed multiple red stains on his bed's sheets. But he wouldn't cut.. Right?

I shook my head, letting the thought leave my head ; I just needed a way out of these handcuffs. I roamed around his room, before stumbling into his washroom. I walked in, but backed up at the sight I saw.

Dried-up blood on the mirror, and a blade on the sink.. I listed in my head. No..

I picked up the blade, realizing it was a sharp one. I picked it up gently, carefully cutting the handcuffs off of my wrists. Who knew they made blades this sharp? This dimension is zany.. Once they were completely off, I rubbed my wrists, thankful to be free to use my hands. Suddenly, a sound rang throughout the bathroom. I bowed my head, seeing a phone. Jordan must've left it.

I'm not one to be nosy, but I picked it up, seeing he has a few messages. All from someone called "Graser". I decided to read through them.

Graser 🤖 ;  bayaniDOOOOOOOOOD

Graser 🤖 ;  tell dan i'm sorry i couldn't come 2 the beach. shadow's at it again 😼

Graser 🤖 ;  txt me when u get there!! 😸

Hmm, Shadow. Funny name. So Jordan's at the beach, I thought. I thought for a moment whether I should go and find him. But then I realized it was a big risk. The Shadow King sent me here to, well, die, so exposure to the Sun is a big risk. But then again, Jordan is going to wonder how and why I'm sitting in his house, using his WiFi. I decided against it, and I'd go to the beach to find him. I just have to over clothe myself so I'm not exposed, or hide in a shady spot. Two options, one me.

Let's see how this goes, I tell myself, closing my eyes, feeling a familiar dark aesthetic rush through me. My red particles swirled around me as I felt myself being lifted off the ground, disappearing off to (hopefully) a shady area within the millisecond.

But that same thought of this 'Golden Heart' person ran through my mind on the way.

Have a good day speedsters
