OUIJA BOARD

Chapter 10: Feeling Grumpy

I watched as Abduxuel disappeared into thin air. I sighed and stared at Joey for a moment,"I hope you will be okay...goodnight." I mumbled. I turned around and started towards the sliding door. I opened the sliding door and took a quick glance at the pool, everything was so still. I felt a shiver go down my spine and I went in the mansion and closed the sliding door quickly. I was met by a confused James,"Everything okay Milady?" He asked sweetly. I didn't want to deal with boys right now. Especially in a time like this. "I'm fine," I said walking away but stopped for a moment,"And don't call me Milady anymore...it's stupid." I said sternly. He blinked and opened his mouth to say something, but before he could I had already left. I walked down the hallway and opened the door greeted with a sad "Hi" from Bob and Philip. I half heartedly waved and threw myself on the bed. I knew Katy was looking at me from the other side of the room, her stares burn into the back of my head. I but my lip and took a quick glance at her, then I turned back to facing the wall. I heard Katy sighed,"Ok..G'night, turn off the lights Philip." She looked at me for a moment and then turned around and closed her eyes. I ignored the stares my friends were giving me and forced myself to sleep by shutting my eyes tightly. "Goodnight." Philip said trying to sound like he said it to everyone, but I could tell it was meant for me since he must have felt worried for me. Well, I'm just going to focus on getting my rest for now, but not to be mean, I mumbled quietly,"Goodnight." I could tell Philip heard since he shifted around in his bed. I woke up and stretched my arms out. It was very early, exactly 6:00 A.M and the sun was coming up for sure, I went out without a care of changing clothes. I tip-toed my way out and slowly opened the sliding door. I closed it behind me and was greeted with a nice fresh breeze. That's a bit weird, it's starting to get cold. I rubbed my arms for warmth and walked around the pool. I jumped a bit since I forgot Joey was still in the pool. He looked the same, but there was something different on his face. I went in for a closer look and crouched while squinting my eyes. I could tell that Joey was not happy, he was still unblinking so it meant he had gotten no rest since yesterday. His eyes were all puffy and red, he also had bags and they looked darker than his usual skin color. I also noticed his lips were chapped from how dry they were. I felt the same fresh breeze come around, but this time it was a bit more forceful. He might be here. I turned to the exact spot that he appeared yesterday. Yes he was appearing from there since there was that same red glow, but lighter. He popped up and walked towards me while fixing his bow-tie. He grinned like a Cheshire Cat and played around with the buttons of his black vest,"Are you ready?" I nodded and got up. "So how are we supposed to get him outta that pool?" Abduxuel rubbed his chin and took off the black and white fedora he was wearing,"It might be complicated." He simply answered looking down at you. I felt a lump in my throat and stared at Joey. How can't this plan be possibly complicated?
