Ghosted - a JATP fan fiction

Unsaid Emily Part 1

Luke's POV

The guys and I sat in the studio. It was past midnight and none of us had said much since our conversation with Willie. I don't think any of us felt like talking, or maybe we just didn't know what to say.

I had no idea what to think. My brain was numb and I was too tired to do anything.

I also have no idea what we're going to do about this whole Caleb, unfinished business thing. We figured it had something to do with playing the Orphum, because that's what we wanted to do before we died. But how on earth were we supposed to do that, we were just three dead guys from 1995. So our only idea was impossible.

The three of us sat still and we were all stuck in our own heads.

I told them I had to go somewhere and they both nodded and I poofed away.

I went to my house. Well, my old house.

I have been there a lot since I came back. Just to see my parents, check in on them. I don't know if they're okay. I doubt they are.
I just sat in my old room for a while, thinking.

Julie's POV

I woke up in a good mood.

Flynn and I killed it yesterday! The guys were there, but I couldn't see them. They were just writing me messages.

But still I was happy.

I got out of bed and got dressed into one of my favorite shirts and black jeans.

Before I went to school I went to see if the guys were in the studio.

I found them huddled around the coffee table as if they were plotting something.

"Umm guys?" I pulled their attention from the coffee table. They turned and looked at me very quickly.

"Hey Jules," Luke gave me a little wave and the other two did the same. They seemed to be on edge.

"Are you guys okay?" I asked them.

They all nodded quickly.

"Ooo, now that I can tell you in person, you did great last night Julie!" Reggie told me.

"Thanks Reg." I smiled, "Alright I got to go to school I'll see you guys later!"

I walked out of the studio but I heard someone run up behind me. I turned and it was Luke.

"Julie, can I talk to you for a second?" He asked me.

"Oh, um, yeah, but make it quick I have to get to school."

He nodded, "Right, yeah. Umm what happened to my parents after..." He didn't finish but I knew what he meant.

I sighed, "I told my dad the truth, and he of course wanted me to tell your parents, but I pushed it off for a while. When I finally told them... they were furious, they blamed me for everything. Saying they never wanted to see or hear from me again." I trailed off, I hated that memory, I hated them for blaming me, but I hated myself more for believing them.

I just stood there with Luke and it was quiet for a while. I don't know if he was thinking or just staring off into space. He tapped his foot to the ground making a messy beat then he finally looked up at me.

"I'm sorry." His voice was soft and I just nodded, then he continued, "You didn't believe them, did you?"

I stayed quiet, I tried to remember what I told them and what they said, but all I could remember was the feeling, the feeling in my gut telling me that maybe I had some fault in the death of my friends. I was already grieving, and it was painful to hear them blame me, because maybe they were right.

After not saying anything for a while Luke started again "None of this was your fault, if anything it was my fault."

"Don't say that, it wasn't your fault."

"Okay but it might have been my fault that my parents hate you."

I shrugged, "I don't know." I paused, "I have to get to school."

He nodded, "I'll talk to you later."

"Yeah." I began to walk away but then I realized something, "Luke?"

He turned back and faced me.

"Do you miss them?" I asked him.

He sighed, "Yeah." He walked away, so I went to school.

Alex's POV

The guys and I have done a lot of thinking. We think it's something we all have to do together because, well we died together.

Our first guess is to play the show we never got to play because that logically makes the most sense. But how are we supposed to play the Orpheum? We're three dead guys living in a garage.

I had to clear my head.

So where did I go?

The Orpheum.

I sat on the stage and just tried to think. Till I heard the familiar sound of a ghost poofing in next to me.

It was Willie.

"Is this seat taken?" He asked me and sat down.

I stared at my feet then looked up at him, "This whole thing sucks."

"Yeah, I messed up." He sighed.

"No, it's like you said... you know, you didn't have a choice. I mean, Caleb owns your soul."

"No." He said quickly, "No, still, I know what he's capable of. I brought you guys right to him.When you guys asked me, I should've just skated away."

"I would have still followed you." I admitted and laughed a little.

Man... I would do anything to take back what I did to you." Just then a tiny jolt hit me. I groaned. He continued, "I am so sorry. I mean, did you guys figure out what your unfinished business is?"

I scoffed, "Not like it's gonna happen. We think we have to play here.

"The... the Orpheum?" He clarified.

"Yeah, I mean, we were two hours away from getting on that stage the night we died."

"You guys were gonna be legends."

That thought made me a little sad, "We were." 

Author's Note 

Hey guys! We only have 4 chapters left :(

But I'm thinking of writing a season 2 for this story because when I finish it, it will be ending on a cliffhanger... it won't be the same as the original show it will be very different, but I'm just wondering if you guys would be interested in a season 2.  So let me know!

But anyway, hope you enjoyed :)
