Unexplainable (PTV fanfiction)

Cry Baby

Alex POV

I woke up earlier, why do I have to go to work so early in the morning? I showered at my home and changed. I looked at myself in the mirror and my eyes are buffy. I put some foundation and concealer to make it less visible. Mama Perry was still with us, she hasn't been doing too well with the death of Brendon still. What do you expect her to feel like rainbows and sunshine after a few weeks Brendon died. I swear I've been seeing him everywhere, in my dreams, public places, around houses. I think it's just my stress and nervous are just messing with my mind. When I was at Damon's house, I was talking to Brendon. He's a ghost, but how? Maybe I'm just going crazy; me and my morning thoughts.

I drove to Sliver Time where I met up with Riker. "Hey," I waved at him and he waved back, "before we go in, I need to talk to you about something."

"Sure, what is it" Riker said.

"Hey Ri" Sophia said walking towards us.

"Hey So-So" Riker said hugging her.

"I'll tell you later, Hey Sophia" I waved at her.

"Hi Alex" she said sipping her coffee. "Let's go in" we followed her in. "Alex, you look tired?" She looked at me.

"Just a little" I said.

"Don't fall asleep in the job" she laughed a little.

"I won't" I said yawning. We walked in the elevator and again it was silent. Does this elevator have some kind of power where it makes people stay silent? We got out of the elevator, Sophia and I went in to our studio and Riker went to his.

"We're going to go to the meeting in half an hour that means that we need to review the photos and the girls aren't here. When we have meetings, it's the girls' day off." Sophia put on her glasses while taking out her camera while I took my out.

"What's the meeting about?" I asked.

"Mr. Franta told us that every month we all have a meeting together so he can see how we are doing. Sometimes he has individual meeting too, but you have to make an appointment, he is a very busy man."

"We are going to present him our pictures." I said.

"Yup" she looked at the photos. Behind her I saw Brendon standing next to the camera stand looking at me. Oh yeah, he is a ghost and I'm the only one that knows. Why couldn't Damon see him when he walked into the living room? "Are you ok? You look like you just saw a ghost."

"Tell me about it, I'm going to go to the restroom" I walked out the room and I wondered around with my thoughts until I found a restroom. I should ask Riker or someone about it. Riker said that I should separate my job and life, so I can't ask him now. I'll write it down in my phone to ask someone about Brendon being a ghost. I forgot to last night because I got side track with finding Vic. I even forgot to go through the pictures.

I don't know what my life has become. I don't even know what I'm doing. I splashed some water in my face and dried my face. When I took the towel of my face, I saw Vic from the mirror. He looked really pale and his eyes weren't brown anymore, they were red. He was still standing there. I blinked a few times and pinched myself. Vic was still there, "help me," was all he said before he vanished. I saw the horror in his eyes and how badly he was. A few tears fell from my face; I stopped myself from crying anymore because I don't want to have buffy red eyes. If I do then people will ask questions and they will want answers. Also this isn't the time or place to cry. I been crying a lot lately too and i've been hiding my buffy eyes. You can call me cry baby. I walked back to the studio.

"Get your camera, we're heading to the meeting" I did ask she asked. We walked to the elevator where we saw Riker. "Hey Ri, hey Helena" she waved to both of them and I just waved.

"Hi I'm Helena" she reached her hand out.

"I'm Alex" I shook her hand. That is Helena, she is really pretty. She has black short hair, a thigh tattoo, angel bites, and her eyes are really pretty. She had two colors in each eye, the green was closer to her pupil and the blue was surrounding the green. I looked away when she noticed that I was staring. The elevator doors open and walked to the meeting.

"Hello people that are coming in, take a seat next to your partners" Mr. Franta said. He was sitting in the far end chair where he can see everything. "Is everyone here?" he asked looking at the time. "The meeting is going to start in a minute, so Ron you know what to do."

"Yes, Franta" after a minute Ron closed the doors and locked them.

"Shall we start this meeting? All of you are going to present your projects and I'm going to see how far you guys are. Sanchez, Romeos you two go first." Mr. Franta took a piece of paper and pen. I'm doomed.

*skipping meeting*

The meeting went well as I expected to. I went outside and I remember what happen in the bathroom earlier. This is bad, I need to call Melody and River or text them. I'm just going to their apartment and we get half of the day off. We don't have our models' because they took the day off. "You ok?" Riker asked looking at me.

"Yeah, why?" I said scratching my arm.

"You looked distracted and you are really quiet" he said.

"I'll tell you when we are outside" I whispered to him. We walked out and went to get some lunch. We sat at a table and ordered some food.

"So what's wrong?" he asked.

"Don't think that I'm crazy" I said holding out my pinky and he pinky promise. "I keep seeing things" our food came and I stayed quiet until the waitress left. "I saw Brendon earlier standing next to the camera set." I said.

"How do you know it was him?"

"Two days after he died I saw him and I kept seeing him. The day Vic got kidnapped I saw him and he talked to me. He told me that he is a ghost." I sipped my drink.

"The ring did have an effect on him." Riker said then shout his mouth again.

"What are you talking about?" I looked at him with confusion.

"I wasn't supposed to tell you, Melody will explain it to later. She is an expert in all this magic things." Riker took a bite into his food.

"Why can't you tell me?" I said.

"I can't because I don't know what the ring was for." Riker said.

"So you guys put a ring on my brother and didn't tell me what for. This is unbelievable; you could have at least warn me about this." You can tell I sounded hurt and a little offended.

"We didn't know if it was going to work and we didn't want to get your hopes up."

"I'll ask Melody then since you don't know." That was ruder than I intended. "I'm sorry. Does Vic have one too?"

"What?" His face held a confused expression.

"Does Vic have a ring too? When I went to the bathroom, I saw him standing in front of me and he said help me." I explained and this is all still confusing to me. I stopped eating remembering how horrible and terrified Vic looked. "I want to go" I said grabbing my food and drink. I walked out the place and Riker followed me.

"Wait, where are you going?" Riker asked.

"I don't know" I got in my car and drove off.
