Chapter 13

UNKNOWN

How I ended up in this dark hole, I will never know. I thought I was free, actually, I thought all of us ghosts were free. We're dead, for crying out loud!

It all happened so fast. One minute, I'm rising into the sky and the next minute I'm stuck in this dark hole with the others. Ghosts can't feel temperatures so I have no idea if it's hot or cold in here. All I know is that it is depressing and I feel trapped. The room we are confined to looks like it goes on forever, like a bottomless pit. It has no walls, except for the one glass wall that leads to the way out. It's probably there to tempt us...It's torture in the worst of forms.

It's a good thing that I'm not alone. I have the others with me, and I know if we just put our heads together, we can find what we need and get out of this place. If it wasn't for him and his stupid wall,we would have been long gone by now. Trevor would have helped us, as well as his aunt, and we all could have been gone to the brightness that is our happiness.

Ah, Trevor. I miss him so much and he doesn't even know it. He and his family were so helpful to me and I will be eternally grateful. It wasn't their fault that I had a stalker that would never let me go.

"Hey, what's wrong?" It was Paul and Liz. They were my closest friends in the ghosts' world. Well, other than Dakota, but she hasn't turned up in ages. She was trapped here with us, but I haven't seen her in awhile. Anything could have happened to her.

"Nothing, just sitting and thinking," I sighed.

"About Trevor?" Liz raised an eyebrow. She knew how I felt about him and I knew that if I could blush, I totally would have. Ever since I faded into a full ghost, I wasn't able to blush, cry or touch any object. My body now just goes right through, like the rest of them. "And... him?" She hesitated. No one ever liked saying his name.

But I wasn't like everyone else. I knew the guy who trapped me and all the other ghosts that were still on earth. He's a certain angel by the name of Cane. He's the angel of death and the "leader" of the ghosts on earth. Pft, yeah right, some leader he came out to be... He's the reason I'm dead in the first place!

If only I knew how this would turn out from the beginning. When I met the "mysterious boy from the park", I never knew that it would lead me to my death. After we first met, it was like we clicked somehow and we ended up having annual visits. I remember meeting up with him every so often when I was stressed and after a couple of months of getting together, I knew that I started falling for him. He made me feel wanted and... loved. Our relationship grew stronger, but I never told anyone about it.

The more I saw Cane, the more I forgot about the life I had. I would ditch my friends and even avoid my family so I could sneak out and spend the night with him. Everyone I associated with seemed fake to me whereas Cane, at the time, was 100% real. He treated me like no one else did and made me feel special. Everyone else pretended to like me because I was the so called "popular girl" at school. But Cane didn't care about that. He treated me like a regular human being.

After a few months into our secret relationship, Cane decided to pop the question. He said he wanted to be with me forever and being the hopeless romantic that I was, I said yes. He kissed me lovingly, with the best kiss I've ever experienced, and said that we will be together forever... but there was just one little detail that I had to know about first.

That was the day he told me about his true Identity. At first, I didn't believe that he was an angel and I almost ran away from him thinking he was crazy (If only I actually did run away, I wouldn't be in this mess). Before he could stop me, he tried to prove he was an angel by showing me how he could disappear and reappear in a different spot and tell me secrets about different people that I would have never have imagined. He told me he could only be seen by humans when he wants them to and he gave me a cheesy line like "I would appear for you any day, babe" and I remember blushing like crazy, but now that I think back on it, I realized that I was really naive. I was awestruck, but also love struck. I blame the teenage hormones...
