CHAPTER 5 | DEAD BODY

LORENZO'S POV

Her eyes went wide in shock when she understood my suggestion, I mean I am just joking but she's obviously thinking that I am serious. "You are kidding right?" She asked but I shook my head. Honestly, I am dying to laugh but her shocked face is really cute and I just want to see it a little longer.

"You can't be serious Enzo, you want me to kill someone else because I want to stay alive?"

"Hahahaha." I laughed while clutching my stomach, I couldn't keep up with my facade anymore, I mean even if I was serious, she doesn't even look like someone that's capable of killing a cookcroach. "You needed to have seen your face, that was pretty funny." She let out a sigh of relief and I couldn't help but laugh even more.

"Can you be serious, it's not funny."

"It was actually very funny but jokes aside, you need to possess a dead body but we are not killing anyone. We just have to find a dead body that you can possess." The fact that I am even willing to partake in this is even strange but I actually want to help her plus I really want to know why I am the only person that can see and hear her.

"That's so gross." She's right about that, I get the creeps from just thinking about it but it's like an experiment to me, I want to know if everything I have read is even true or possible.

"Well it's either that or you keep floating around and appearing in places you are not invited to." I mean she ruined a perfect moment and now with all the ghost and dead body talk, I doubt I can get my dick up even if I see a free vagina. The thought that she can actually possess a dead body is really gross.

"Fine I will do it." That's exactly what I expected her to say because it's not like she has other alternatives. "How do I go about it?"

"It's late right now and I think it's the best time to go out and see if there is any dead body to possess, it's honestly weird having this conversation with you but that's what we should do." I suggested because I won't be a part of going around and looking for a dead body during the day, that can be risky especially for me because she is a ghost and no one can even see her, so it has to be at night.

"Okay let's go."

We made our way out of the house and we started walking on the street and it feels so weird that no one can actually see her, some people even walked right through her. "It's crazy." I pointed out when a thought crossed my mind.

"What's crazy?"

"What if you are not really here and it's all in my head?" I mean people might not be seeing her because she's not here at all and not because she's a ghost, right?

"Don't be ridiculous Enzo, I am here. I am a ghost, you saw me disappearing and levitating."

"Yeah I saw all of that but what if it's all in my head?" I asked worriedly just as I saw a bunch of people gathering in a distance. "What's happening there?" I asked before she could say anything else.

"I don't know, let's check." We crossed over to the other side and as we got closer, I realized that it was an accident. It's a lady in her early forties I think and a driver, the driver is still alive but the lady looks dead, I guess this is our chance. "I think this is our chance, go over there and possess her before the ambulance gets here." I suggested.

"Ummm, okay. I will try." She walked right through the crowd and no one noticed her, she stopped and looked at the womans face before looking at my direction.

I nodded for her to go ahead while I was anxiously waiting to see what will happen... I sneakered while watching her act crazy but I ended up looking crazy. I few people looked at my direction and gave me a weird look.

I mean who laughs at an accident scene but if they could see the way she was jumping up and down on the dead woman, they will definitely be laughing right now.

She stepped away from the woman and then she ran towards the woman and nothing happened and then she laid down on the woman and she made sure to stay in the say exact position as the woman but nothing happened and I sneakered again. "Sorry." I said when they looked at me again and I stepped back from the crowd.

"It's not working, I don't know what to do?" She lamented and I finally had the opportunity to let out all the laughs I have been holding in.

"Will you stop laughing and help me out here." She whined and it made me laugh even more.

"I'm am very sorry but you were really funny out there." It's the cutest and funniest thing I have seen in recent time. "Maybe that's not the right body, let's go to the hospital where we will have more options." I suggested because the ambulance has already arrived and there is nothing we can do here anymore.

"Okay." We walked over to the private hospital at the end of the street and I really hope she will get it right this time because I don't know what else to do after this.

We walked in but I am confused about what area of the hospital to go. "Please call the the morgue to come and pick up the lady in ward 12, she died a few hours ago." A nurse spoke to a male attendant and I think I know exactly where to go.

"Come with me." I said to Echo as I pretended like I was visiting a guest and I walked into the ward section.

I kept checking the number on the doors as we walked down the hallway till I stopped in front of a door that has ward 0012 on it. I looked around the hallway to see if anyone is watching before I opened the door and stepped in.

"Damn." I said as I opened the face of the lady on the bed. I mean she doesn't look bad and she's young just like Echo but before today, I have never seen a dead body and I doubt that I will be able to get over the amount of weird things that I have seen and experienced since I met Echo.

"The floor is yours."

"Ummm, what should I do? Should I run in or lay on her?" She asked while staring at the body with watery eyes. "Oh I know, I will just jump in." I wanted to laugh but I know this is not the time, so I held it in.

She moved back a little and then she ran forward and jumped on the lady's bed with a cute fierce scream. "Here I gooooo..."
