Then, without a second thought, he joined her in the water, slashing at his own wrist. As the blood mixed with the water, Grayson's vision blurred. In his final moments, he saw me—there, standing at the edge of the bathtub. His face lit up with a wild, desperate joy as he tried to stagger toward me, calling my name. "Honey," he cried, his voice full of longing. I stared at him, my eyes cold and distant, a disgust so sharp it cut through everything. "I'm not your honey," I said. "Not in this life, not in the next, not in any life to come. Not ever."

Hard. I move closer before I even realize I’m doing it, steps slow, like she’s a wild creature that might bolt if I breathe too loud. She keeps singing. “…you don’t have to stand alone in the dark anymore, I know your ghosts, I know you’re more, I know the world never told you you could be loved…” I swallow. Once. Twice.

Great, just great, an early funeral rain too, how much better could this night get? He anchored my movements by taking slow, steady steps, I took the exact steps he took, what if I step on something and this turns out to be a remake of "The Mummy"? I tottered quietly. Anything could ignite his will to snap my neck and I still wanted that movie before death beckoned. I wasn't this terrified when I accepted his help, why was my brain making a mess of my thoughts? Get it together, Dawn.

I tilted my head slightly and gave him a wink. Nico shook his head. I could hear the faint sound of the caller breathing through the speaker. He had apparently been waiting patiently while Nico and I discussed whether or not he was completely insane. I leaned closer to the phone. “You still there?” There was a short pause. “Hello, Ghost?” I raised my eyebrows. Nico immediately looked at me. I could practically see the amusement forming in his expression. “Yes. I’m here.” “I wasn’t sure if the call had dropped.” He sounded confused for a brief minute. Maybe a little disappointed as well.

Seth's expression turned grim, but he instructed the hotel staff to clean up. The celebration party continued as planned. However, the guest of honor showed no enthusiasm at all. Ethan delivered his speech mechanically, chatted with the guests, and wore a stiff smile that never reached his eyes. Later, someone suggested playing truth or dare, with the loser required to kiss someone of the opposite sex. To no surprise, Ethan lost. Perhaps he hadn't been paying attention at all. Mark told Ethan to pick someone to kiss. He even gave Victoria a shove toward Ethan. "Choose Victoria. You two look perfect together!"

The last person I swore I’d never speak to again. But desperate hearts do desperate things. I tapped the name. It rang once. Twice. Then, her voice came through. “Well, well. This is a surprise.” I swallowed, my throat burning. “I need you.” A pause. Then amusement coated her tone. “Of course you do. And what exactly does my favorite little ghost want this time?” “I want need a favor” I said. Silence. Then a low chuckle came through the line, slow and sharp like a blade being unsheathed. “You’re bold tonight, Gina. But why should I do anything for you?”

I waited for the next few seconds for Ethan to say something since he felt he had all it takes to meddle in my business but he just stood there, staring at me like he had seen some ghost or something. “I guess you can’t find your tongue huh?” I asked and turned to head inside when Ethan spoke up, stopping me in my tracks again, “I’m sorry, I never meant to bring back memories, bad memories I guess,” Ethan said, I guess it's his way of apologizing. I don’t know how to react to his so-called apology. I was lost between accepting it or putting him in his place since it has become so difficult for him to stay out of my business. However, within three seconds, I made a mental note to get done wit

she says smiling and Manuel held her hand and kisses the back of her palm. “ I love you so much and I still want to spoil you more “ he says. After a while they finish eating and they were ushered into the yatch private cinema, both of them sat while they were served pop corn and she lays her head on Manuels chest as the film began and her mind wasn’t in the movie again, her mind was so far away asking so many questions inside of her, questions she needs answer to and soon she slept off, she didn't sleep of because she doesn't like movies but because her mind isn’t in the movie anymore.

She lunged at me, her face a sickly pale green, her eye sockets empty black pits. I stood my ground. "He's not coming back," I said softly. "You can be at peace now." The ghost froze. Her shoulders trembled, and she let out a faint whimper, as if a great weight had been lifted. The black mist around her dissipated. Her form turned faint, then transparent, until she dissolved into a wisp of light that drifted toward the rose bushes. Lorenzo's eyes lit up. "Damn, where'd you learn that trick?"
