Ghost Adventures is nothing to do with me, I'm a fan - that's all:)
After a long absence... Very long... I am back! Writing this time, and sticking to it.
This is a short chapter, just so I can get back to it a bit easier.

Just like I had expected, I was having a nightmare. This one was completely different, I was on the Alcatraz island. I knew that I had never been there before, but what was weird was the fact that I would be there in a few days' time. In my vision, I saw the rough waters battering the clay. "Jump!" A voice taunted. Whoa, creepy. No one was there, just me by myself. The waters were the only thing I could focus on, everything else seemed like a blur. "Jump!" The same voice taunted. The next thing I knew, the water got closer and I was in the air. Waking up with a gasp, I put my hands on my head. "Not jumping." I whispered.

"What in the world was that?" A male voice wondered. Zak, thank God. He must have had a feeling I was dreaming, otherwise he wouldn't have woken up. "Kira?" He checked.

Lifting my head up, all I could see was pitch black and an outline of a human head. "Just had a bad dream, on Alcatraz." I answered. Moving my hands, I needed to stop being such a coward. Breathing out, I hoped to get over this problem I had. "Considering I have not been there yet, strange." I pointed out.

Zak sighed, his tongue clicking against his mouth. "Just a tad bit strange." He agreed. He put his hand on my shoulder, trying to comfort me. "Did you want to discuss?" Zak wondered.

"Not really." I replied. How could I? It was bad enough seeing it in my dreams, but having to explain it was different. "I'm fine now Zak, I hope." I insisted. Taking in a couple of breaths, I hoped that I would calm down.

"You said not jumping, what did you mean?" Zak questioned. He did hear me, great! I did not mean for anyone to hear me, but that did occur. "Kira, you need to tell me." He pleaded.

I took my time with the answer, because I didn't know if Zak would believe me. Eventually, I gave in and sighed in defeat. "Someone said jump, and I could only imagine that I fell into the waters." I explained. That was it, nothing else. I felt an arm go around me, my head had landed on the chest of Zak Bagans. How was I meant to react? I didn't expect this.

"Don't worry, no one would make you jump." Zak assured me. He kissed the top of my head, again I didn't ask him to do that. We were close, and neither one of us were backing down in a hurry. "You have everything to live for." He added.

I knew that, I had my brother, my dog, my niece and my nephew. But also, I was doing the one thing I always dreamt about. Nodding my head, I had a small smile. "Yes, I do have a lot to live for." I confirmed. I didn't want to be a defeatist, that wasn't who I am. Pulling back my head, I didn't feel as anxious. "Thank you, Zak, I don't know what else to say." I said.

"You're welcome." Zak responded. I could sense that he was relieved, he managed to prize out my nightmare. "Let's try again, with the sleeping thing." He suggested. His arm did not budge, and he had proceeded to pull me back down on the mattress.

There was no intention of me budging, and I wasn't going to argue. My hand accidently brushed his, causing me to panic a bit. "Sorry." I mumbled.

"For what?" Zak quizzed. He touched my hand, indicating that he knew what I did. "You have nothing to be sorry for Kira. Honestly." Zak promised. His thumb began stroking my skin, the touch was incredible. "I'm right here, and I am not going anywhere." He added.

Hopefully, the dream wouldn't return. Counting on positivity, I found myself almost falling asleep against Zak's arm. Not clever, I needed to make sure I was comfortable. I had only met the guy a few hours ago, and it came to me that we were sharing the same bed. He did promise nothing would happen, but something did happen. It was time for me to do one thing, and I was probably going to be stupid. Facing the outline of Zak, I used my finger to search for his lips. Once I did find them, I planted one kiss there. Freezing in horror, I did feel guilty straight away. "No?" I asked.

Zak didn't respond at first, and I believed I had scared him. Did he smile? Or did he get angry? This was on my mind, I wanted to know the answer. "Yes." Zak stated. That did not make much sense to me, was he OK with that? "And when I say yes, I mean you are OK to carry on if that is what you choose." He reasoned.

Breathing a sigh of relief, my temporary moment of feeling like an idiot was over. "Fair enough, I thought I was stupid." I responded. There was my answer, I did kind of expect that one. Now I could sleep a bit easier, but the nightmare could always return. I did scare me, but I was determined to get through it. "And yes, I think we can try that sleeping thing all over again." I stated.

It was hard to tell if Zak was disappointed, since it was pitch black. "OK, at least I know I can handle you waking up." He commented. Indeed, he did know that part. We were still holding hands, this wasn't weird anymore. "Sleep well, Kira." Zak whispered.

At last, the conversation ended. Smiling to myself, I closed my eyes to succumb to whatever would come my way. "And you, Zak Bagans." I replied. Patiently, I waited for my body to shut down. No matter what would happen next, I knew that Zak Bagans would be there to comfort me. This nightmare was not going to beat me, I was going to fight it back.

The next chapter will include Nick and Aaron.
