Justin's POV { 🛑⛔️ remember to vote please⛔️🛑}

"Y-you should check to see what it is." Camila looks at me with wide eyes, whispering to me.

"Why me? You should go first princess." I tease her leaning on the wall as we were looking down the basement.

"It's your house, Jay so please go check to see what it is." She points at the basement with pleading eyes.

"No thanks, I'm not going down there." As I was about to walk away we hear another scream come from downstairs.

"Oh my gosh, oh my gosh-" "would you quit it? Shesh fine, I'll go to see what it is." I roll my eyes holding the handle.

"What are you waiting for?" She crosses her arms waiting for my move. I scoffed as I walked down the stairs slowly. "Wait, wait I'll come with something could happen to you down there." I smiled at her seeing her slowly following me down the stairs.

When we made it there, I looked around, quickly seeing Camila light up her phone.

"What are you doing? The gho- I mean they could see us." She gave me a confused look turning off the light on her phone.

"What are you- OH MY GOODNESS! THERE IS A BODY ON THE GROUND!" I hear her yelling loudly making me quickly look her way seeing the light of her phone on a body.

She slides on the ground screaming and crying. I walk up to the body looking close to it.

"W-what the hell are you doing?!" She waves her hands towards me.

"Chill I wanna see if it's dead."

"Are you serious right now? Don't you see the disgusting bugs coming out of her mouth?" I look towards the body seeing she's right. It's dead and it's probably been here for awhile. I suddenly felt sick to my stomach.

Who did this to her?

Why was she even here?

"Ugh, I need to get of here." I said as I felt something burn in my throat and coming up.

"Aren't you gonna do anything about the body?" She tugs my pants looking at me with a worried face.

"Gross I'm not touching that." I walk away from it holding the wall for balance.

"W-who did this to her?" She asks looking at me.

"What are you looking at me for?" I bring my lips into my mouth, waving my hands trying to block the flies around us.

"Did you-" "don't even fucking continue. I'm not a killer." I whisper looking at her with serious eyes. She nodded standing up but then looking towards my right then started screaming again. I look towards my right seeing someone standing there.

I scream and hide behind Camila holding her as a shield. "Please kill her not me!"I hold her feeling her shaking as well. Then suddenly the lights go on seeing Zayn standing there smiling.

"Zayn?" She squeaks out pulling away from me with a big push making me fall on the ground.

"Babe, I miss you." He ignored Camila walking towards me giving me a hand to stand up. I take his hand standing up fixing myself. He pulls me into a hug, hugging me like the world is ending.

"You okay?" I ask kissing his head. He nodded, sniffling.

"Um, guys sorry to interrupt but the body?" Camila whines pointing at it.

"Ugh, she's so annoying." Zayn whines into my chest bringing his hands up towards her, he quickly opens his fingers making Camila drop on the ground. "Now that's better." He smiles pecking my lips.

"What did you do to her?"

"Nothing, just made her pass out." He shrugs like it's nothing.

"Zayn did you do this?" I ask pointing at the body with my head. He looks at me confused then looking behind.

"I don't know. I don't remember her from here." He licks his lips then looking at me. "It smells in here, can we go already?" He waves his hand in front of his nose.

"Sweetness, we need to talk and when I say talk I mean right now." I grab his arm pulling him up the stairs.

"Ouch, ouch slow down." He whines as we make it up to our room. I close the door locking it. "Oh are we gonna have sex?" He winks going to take his shirt off but I glare at him making him stop right away, I decided to leave the door open if Camila asks for help.

"Today outside did you know know those people? And why all of a sudden did you start crying? What happened out there?" He tenses up at every question I ask him but he rolls his eyes looking at his nails. "Are you even listening to me?" I snap my fingers in front of his face.

"You're still talking?" He pinches my cheek.

"Zayn I'm serious, answer me," I sigh sitting down beside him.

"I told you before I don't know who they were."

"And the crying?" I asked.

"I guess that's a ghost thing I got emotional all of a sudden."

"Bullshit you told me yourself you can't feel anything." When I said that to him he quickly pinned me against the bed.

"You seriously think I like being this way? I can't sleep, eat or feel anything. Fuck I just want my life back. I died cause of what? A step that was broken? How sad is that? And now my soul is forever stuck in this house and I can't do shit about it. And you saying these things won't make it any better." He releases me, disappearing.

I cough for a second looking around me seeing him not here anymore. "Zayn, I know you're here. Let's just talk about this okay? I'm sorry I know this is hard but you can't push me away." He suddenly reappears crossing his arms madly but then I see his jeans keep being pulled by someone he keeps ignoring it looking behind me at the wall like he was thinking of something.

"Who's doing that?" I point towards his jeans.

"No one." I reach my hand towards his jeans trying to feel it but then something really familiar feels through me like I've known it for a very long time. I quickly back up my hand looking up at him.

"I can't take this anymore." I went to pass by him but he holds me in place.

"Justin, baby you're gonna hate me forever but-" suddenly a voice cuts him off.

"Zayn? You're alive?" Zayn looks at me swallowing hard, I look to see my dad standing there shocked as ever.

"Dad." I whisper pulling Zayn close to me.
