Ch.19 Believe in Me
~×~ Emma's P.O.V ~×~
I can't believe I let her talk me into her walking home in this storm alone. I sit at my table waiting for my phone to light up or vibrate or basically anything to let me know Ash made it home okay, and of course it is just laying there lifeless. I tap my fingers out of impatience. What do I do!
" If she isn't dead I swear I am going to kill her for this." I say picking up my phone and leaving her a not so sweet message. " She better reply or so help me I am going to drive over there and kick her ass." I stare at the phone for a while until I think it might melt under my glare and then decide to go up to my bedroom all the while chanting "Ash is okay she probably just fell asleep."
"Emma..."
"What the f-" I trip over my left foot and fall on the hardwood floor at the end of the steps. Great, just what I need my best friend not replying to my messages or calls and a dang ghost after me whispering my name. Oh, what a day that I am having. I slowly get up and brush myself off, looking around me.
" Okay, come out come out wherever you are..." I whisper sweetly. I hate ghosts by the way always popping up and scaring the hell out of people yeah not very fun especailly when you are the one that is suppose to be guarding that person and they end up having a heart attack because of the damn thing. So like I said I am not a very big fan.
" If you are trying to give me a heart attack you are going to have to try a little harder than that Mr. Ghost." I say and put my hands on my hips.
" Emma...don't...have...time..." it whispers frantically.
" That's nice but I only help people I can see." I put my hand out and blow on my nails I should really paint them later I can see the black chipping on the ends.
" Emma...please...I ... in...hell.."
" Hell? " Well that's new, " Sorry buddy but you're breaking up." I start moving towards my bedroom but then it starts speaking again.
" It's Adien! " It screams frantically.
"What would Adien be doing in hell?." I ask surprised, of course now that I think about it that does explain his disappearance but that doesn't mean he is in hell. I shake my head. I seriously don't have time for this especially with Ash not answering, Liam still around stalking her, and Adien missing.
"Liam." Is the last thing I hear before the house goes deathly silent.
"That rat bastard." I say putting the piecies together. That explains everything. Why fight for the girl when you can drag her soul mate to hell?
I pick up my phone. " Come on Ash answer."
********
I wait for peaceful sleep to over take me once more hoping that what happened last time doesn't happen again. I toss and turn in my bed until I wear myself out and am almost asleep I am about to close my eyes when...
"Ash...." I hear a soft whisper near my head and I slowly peek out of my left eye. Nothing. I pull the covers over my head and hope that whatever it is goes away and lets me rest for at least one day, that is all I want. A day without drama with Liam, missing Adien, and my never ending cyle of death...Is that to much to ask for?! I look at my ceiling waiting for some kind of answer.
"Ash..."it whispers again answering my silent question.
"Apparently so." I think to myself at the never ending calling of my name.
Why me?
Why tonight?
I hear my phone vibrating again but I am to worn out to even answer the call and even if I did who is it to say it is not whatever called me earlier looking for round two to my early heart attack and possibly death? I sigh whoever it is can leave a message and wait for me to call in the morning.
